Chapter 1427 Planned
And once Arielle persuaded him to stay, the plan would be a success. As though he had made a tough decision, Vinson turned to Dylan and Arielle and nodded. “Since Ms. Moore has said so, I guess I have no other choice but to agree.”
Arielle curled her lips into a smirk. What a waste that he isn’t an actor! On the other hand, Dylan was delighted upon hearing his words.
After all, it was the first request Arielle had asked of him. If he failed to do it, it would be embarrassing for him. He did not want Arielle to recall this matter in the future when they acknowledged each other and thought that he was an incapable father who could not even hire a bodyguard.
Therefore, he was elated to learn that Vinson had agreed to be Arielle’s bodyguard. That would only not provide ample protection for Arielle but also save his pride.
Nonetheless, he believed that one bodyguard was not enough. I still have no idea who the mastermind is. I should enlist more bodyguards. At that thought, he turned to Arielle and said, “For your safety, I’ve decided to send more men to follow you.”
She furrowed her brows. “Thank you for the offer, Your Majesty. It’s just that I don’t like too many people following me around.”
She did not see the need to have more bodyguards with Vinson’s presence.
Dylan waved his hand dismissively, gesturing to Arielle that there was no need to persuade him. She’s my daughter; how can I allow anything to happen to her again?
“Ms. Moore, I know you don’t like many people following you, but this is an entirely different situation. No one will be able to imagine the consequences if someone attacks you again.”
Yet, his kind intention had put Arielle in a difficult spot.
Watching Dylan’s behavior from one side, Vinson instinctively scrunched his brows tightly. He thought the former was giving off a strange vibe. Though Arielle is the doctor the country invited over, isn’t his concern a little too excessive?
I finally escaped being spied on and made Vinson my bodyguard. Yet now, he wants to add more bodyguards around me. That’s going to get in the way. Arielle’s eyes glowed as she thought.
Suddenly, an idea came into her mind. Looking at Dylan, she remarked, “If that is so, I shall thank you in advance then, Your Majesty. It’s just that…”
Arielle pretended to look as if a little hesitant to speak. Seeing her unconvinced look, Dylan said, “Go ahead and say anything on your mind. I’ll try my best to fulfill them as long as they’re within my capabilities.”
That was what she had been waiting to hear from him!
Averting her gazes to Dylan, she frowned as she explained, “Having so many people protect me will surely attract attention and cause suspicions.”
Convinced that Arielle made a lot of sense, Dylan fell into deep pondering.
Since someone has tried to assassinate Arielle, who knows when comes the next ambush? I’ve only thought of increasing security personnel but failed to consider how too many people around her will attract even more attention. By doing that, it’s equivalent to telling everyone that she’s an important person the country highly protects. It seems like there’s a need to think of a perfect countermeasure.
Guessing what was going through Dylan’s mind, Vinson suggested, “It’s fine to add more bodyguards to safeguard Ms. Moore’s safety. If you’re afraid it’s too eye-catching, a good option will be for them to follow in the dark.”
Dylan was instantly enlightened by Vinson’s suggestion.
“That’s a fair point. We shall do that, then. Fortify protection in the dark. Avoid affecting Ms. Moore’s daily life and arousing the attention of others.”
Dylan was a fast learner. Vinson only proposed a viable idea, and he would follow quickly.
As much as it seemed like a suggestion from Vinson, it was, in truth, pre-planned by the man.
Luckily His Majesty isn’t suspicious at all and follows whatever I say.
