Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love
Chapter 2826 - 16: Alone TogetherChapter 2826: Chapter 16: Alone Together
Ben Lucas’s dark eyes brutally swept across a hint of hostility.
His icy-cold eyes slid over the faces of Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller, who were frightened and discolored, and landed on Harrison Lucas’s face.
The man slowly spoke, his voice cold: "Harrison, you speak."
Anyone in the world might betray him, but Harrison Lucas would never dare to betray him.
This was Ben Lucas’s understanding of Harrison Lucas.
However, upon hearing Ben Lucas’s question, Harrison Lucas’s throat rolled.
Though he didn’t refuse to answer like Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller, he cautiously said: "Report, Major General, this matter... Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller have their reasons."
"I don’t want to hear any explanations, just the result. You have half a minute; if no one gives me an answer after half a minute, all three of you immediately pack your things and transfer to Unit 7186, and do not return for three years."
Unit 7186 is notoriously the toughest and most grueling border unit in the military department.
Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller’s faces changed immediately, while Harrison Lucas became more anxious.
She wasn’t afraid of hardship, but she had set her heart on protecting the eldest master since childhood and being his right-hand man; she must never leave his side.
Harrison Lucas needed less than half a minute, less than three seconds to sell out the other two: "Report, Major General, no one sent you back to your room last night because all of us were knocked out. I suspect that last night was yourself returning to your room."
"What did you say?" Ben Lucas half-narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Harrison’s rather delicate face, "Last night, all of you were knocked out... Who did it."
Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller quickly turned their heads to look at Harrison with pleading eyes.
Please don’t say it.
If the Major General knew he single-handedly knocked them out last night, he would certainly feel bad about it.
Moreover, this way, the Major General would also know they all saw his drunken disgrace.
This is the most fatal part.
Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller had already discussed it this morning when they climbed off the floor; this matter should be kept under wraps, and the Major General must never know.
After all, the Major General is their superior; if the superior knew they saw his embarrassing state, how could they continue to survive?
However, as Ben Lucas’s strongest ’lapdog,’ Harrison Lucas at this moment completely ignored the pleading looks from Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller.
Are you kidding? She mustn’t be discarded by the master; she wants to stay by the master’s side for a lifetime.
"It was you, Major General, who acted. Last night, you got drunk... maybe mistook us for the villain. Anyway... you knocked me and Jared Holbrook, Franklin Miller out."
With no blush or heartbeat, Harrison Lucas told a lie.
This morning she sneaked down the stairs, and at the second-floor staircase saw Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller lying dead asleep, like pigs, and thought of this plan.
Harrison immediately returned to her room to re-wrap her chest, tidied herself up, and went back down, deliberately lying at the staircase with the two of them.
Not long after, Jared Holbrook woke up first, seeing Franklin Miller and Harrison lying on the floor, naturally assuming she was knocked out by Ben Lucas like them last night.
Upon hearing Harrison’s words, Ben Lucas’s icy cold stern face unexpectedly eased a bit.
So, this was the reason why Harrison didn’t fulfill his duties last night?
He hadn’t deserted his post but was knocked out by his drunken-self unknowingly.
"Since it’s like that, you three start a week’s vacation from today. If you need sick leave to see a doctor, just go... medical fees reimbursed."
Ben Lucas didn’t lose his temper as Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller imagined.
He wasn’t angry or retaliatory because his subordinates saw him losing his composure, nor did he apologize humbly. Instead, he arranged for them to take leave in a cold, hard voice.
Military vacations are rare, to get a sudden week-long leave, Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller would be thrilled, hoping the Major General would knock them out again.
However, Harrison displayed some concern.
With them all gone, who would take care of the eldest master?
Though she missed her brother dearly, she chose not to leave.
She had been irresponsible like a scumbag, and now, more so, couldn’t leave the eldest master, who’d just had his body ’claimed’ by her, alone.
Thus, that very night, after Jared Holbrook and Franklin Miller happily took leave for home.
The quiet small building was once again left with only Ben Lucas and Harrison Lucas.
