Archie lowered his head and checked the files. “According to our investigations, they only brought a few elite bodyguards on this trip.
“We’ve hired a team who are evenly matched with them. So, there’s nothing to worry about here. Also, we outnumber them. Our victory is all but assured, Mr. Shane.”
He looked at his CEO and asked, “When do you want to do it, Mr. Shane? The team’s ready for action.”
Shane looked at the hotel entrance. Then, he caught sight of something and was stunned.
“Hold on. Look over there, Archie.”
Archie followed his gaze and saw a tall, burly man wearing a mask and a hat.
“He seems like an ordinary guy, Mr. Shane. Is there a problem here?”
Shane tore his gaze away and analyzed the man’s stature.
“Judging by his imposing posture and gait, I think he’s a tough character. I have a feeling he might be a formidable fighter.”
Archie couldn’t tell anything about the man. He asked, “Well. How do you want us to proceed, then?”
Shane’s face grew grim. He fell silent and started mulling it over. Then, something came to him, and his eyes sparkled.
“I have an idea. Come closer, I’ll tell you about it.”
Archie leaned in closer and listened to his CEO’s orders. Then, he nodded in understanding.
“Alright, Mr. Shane. I’ll get it done as fast as possible.”
“Very well. Take your time with it. Remember, tread carefully, and don’t alert them to our presence. Definitely don’t let them know where we are. Otherwise, our efforts will have been wasted. Got it?”
He had said similar things to his assistant several times now. However, he was still worried that Archie might botch it. That was why he’d remind him to be careful every time he relayed an order.
