Hearing what the Brain just said, Damien couldn’t help but smile again. It wasn’t the kind of smile that carried joy or humor—it was that quiet, knowing smile that appeared only when a man had already anticipated the storm before it arrived.

“You worry too much,” Damien said softly, looking over at the Brain with calm eyes. “That’s your problem.”

Immediately the Brain gave him a tired glance, his brow still creased with concern.

Damien took a breath and leaned forward slightly, his voice low but firm.

“You need time to heal,” he said. “Time to rest. To get your mind and your body back to where they’re supposed to be. That’s what you should be thinking about right now—not politics, not whispers, and definitely not that royal gathering.”

He paused, making sure the Brain was truly listening before continuing.

“You’ve carried this weight long enough. You’ve been watching from the shadows, fighting battles others couldn’t even see. But right now, it’s my turn. Let me handle it.”

    At that moment, upon hearing what Damian had just casually revealed about the three women who would be protecting her, Sophia felt her entire body go rigid with shock as the implications of his words crashed over her like a wave of ice-cold water.She stared at him with her mouth slightly open, trying to process information that seemed completely contradictory to everything they had just been discussing about the dangers posed by corrupt members of the royal family.“Are you seriously saying that those three people, those three women who are supposed to protect me, actually belong to the royal family?” she repeated with disbelief heavy in her voice, needing to hear him confirm again that she had understood correctly.Immediately, Damian nodded his head with the calm assurance of someone who had already thought through all the concerns she was about to raise and had solid reasons for trusting these particular royal family members despite the broader threat.“Yes, they literally belong

    At that moment, upon hearing what Damien had just explained about his female friends and their training background, and seeing the sincere expression on Damien's face as he tried to reassure her about their trustworthiness and professional capabilities, Sophia felt her jealousy beginning to fade as she realized how unreasonable she was being about people who were genuinely trying to help protect her during a dangerous time.She nodded her head with the gesture of someone who had decided to put aside her personal insecurities in favor of accepting help that she clearly needed, even if it made her uncomfortable on an emotional level.“No problem then, I'll accept this arrangement,” she said with resignation in her voice. “Since you literally trust these women with something as important as my safety, then who am I to refuse to trust them when you've known them for years and I haven't even met them yet?”Her tone became more genuine as she continued. “I trust your judgment about people

    At that moment, Damian looked at her with genuine confusion and a bit of frustration, his eyebrows raising as he tried to understand why she was suddenly being so stubborn about an arrangement that solved all the problems she had just been complaining about.“So you're not going to allow this to happen? Why exactly are you refusing help that you literally need?” he asked with bewilderment in his voice. “This protection is something that you genuinely need for your safety, Sophia.”His tone became more persuasive as he tried to explain why her concerns were misplaced. “Because they are women just like you, they're not going to be walking around dressed in obvious military uniforms or anything that screams security personnel. They're not even official military staff, but they are extremely capable and very, very skilled at what they do for protection work.”Damian's voice carried both reassurance and logic as he outlined how discreet the arrangement would be. “They're just going to b

    At that moment, upon hearing Sophia's passionate speech about privacy and how three bodyguards would completely ruin her normal life and draw unwanted attention to their relationship, Damian started laughing with genuine amusement, which literally made Sophia's anger flare up even more as she felt like he wasn't taking her serious concerns seriously at all.She hit his arm with frustration, her face getting redder as she demanded answers. “What exactly is so funny here? Why are you laughing when I'm trying to explain something important to you? Is this really how you're going to treat me when I'm telling you about my feelings?”Her voice carried both hurt and irritation that he seemed to be dismissing her worries as something amusing rather than legitimate concerns that deserved his respect and consideration.Immediately, Damien kept chuckling as he looked at her with the expression of someone who found her assumptions endearing but completely off-base about what he actually had plan

    At that moment, Damien nodded his head with the decisive movement of someone who had already made up his mind about what needed to happen to keep her safe, regardless of whether she might find his protective measures excessive or inconvenient for her daily routine.“No problem then, I completely understand your concerns and I appreciate that you're willing to take precautions,” he said with relief in his voice, though his tone carried the weight of additional measures he was about to announce. “But I really want you to go stay at your parents' house during this dangerous period, and I'm also going to assign you a personal bodyguard for extra protection.”His expression grew more serious as he emphasized the quality of protection he intended to provide. “Not just any random bodyguard from a security company, but someone who's genuinely skilled and experienced in handling serious threats.”Hearing what Damien just proposed about uprooting her entire living situation and having a strang

    Damien's tone carried both personal concern and professional assessment of the threat level. “That's why I want to make absolutely sure that no harm comes before you, that you don't become a casualty or victim of this conflict between legitimate military authority and corrupt royal family members who have allied themselves with violent criminal organizations.”His voice became even more emphatic as he stressed his primary motivation. “So that is precisely why I literally, literally want you to be extremely safe and vigilant during this period when these dangerous people might be looking for vulnerable targets to strike at.”Damien's expression showed deep personal investment in her wellbeing. “That's exactly why I'm so concerned about your safety and why I've been so insistent about protective measures that might have seemed excessive if you didn't understand the full context of the threat we're facing.”His tone carried both warning and respect for the power they were confronting.
