Without a second thought, Brandon bolted directly toward Lillian's office.
Realizing something was terribly wrong, the employee slammed his coffee mug down and shouted, "Hey! What the hell do you think you're doing?"
The shout instantly alerted everyone in the vicinity.
At that exact moment, Brandon practically threw open the door to Lillian's office.
Right in front of him sat Lillian, poised gracefully behind her desk.
Right behind him were the alarmed staff of Lillionix, rapidly closing in to surround him.
With the door bursting open so violently, Lillian's gaze naturally snapped toward the commotion.
She wasn't like the others. Having grown up with him since childhood and having called him her older brother for so many years, she could recognize him instantly. Whether he was wearing a cheap security uniform or anything else, his build and posture gave him away in a heartbeat.
Instantly, Lillian's brows pulled together in a deep frown.
Ethan Hayes quickly rushed to the front of the crowd.
Not realizing the intruder was Brandon, Ethan had assumed some malicious rival had breached the building. Seeing a strange man charge straight into Lillian's private office had scared the living daylights out of him.
If anything happened to her on his watch, he wouldn't know how to face his boss.
Lillian was someone the boss valued more than his own life.
As Ethan shoved his way to the front, he finally recognized Brandon's face.
He let out a sharp sigh of relief, which immediately morphed into a tense surge of irritation.
Why did it have to be this clown?
The man was truly willing to stoop to any low. Dressing up in a rented security uniform just to sneak in—he had to give him points for sheer desperation.
