The Broken Angel & Her Overprotective Brothers - Chapter 60

“We need to take action right now! The Sullivans have already sent someone to initiate their plan. All we need to do is to make sure that we stick to our plan.” A burly man with grey hair and long mustaches said as he looked at the group of young men surrounding him.

“Yes, Sir!”

The chorus erupted inside the small room as the group replied in unison.

“Good. As long as you don’t cause any problems for the Sullivans, everything is perfect in our plan. After all, if we succeeded in our mission then they will also benefit from it without even doing anything.” The same burly man said as he smirked at his own words.

“But Boss, why did the Sullivans in so much hurry? They did not even wait to let the full moon pass before taking action. It’s as if they are a little desperate this time.” A young man who appeared to be in his mid-twenties asked with his eyes filled with curiosity.

The burly man watched him for a few moments in silence before he finally nodded his head slowly as he replied.

“If my guess is not wrong then Domenic Alessandro would already be thinking about summoning the Elders for a meeting. Everyone in our world knows that once the summon is sent, there’s no way Kaiden can save Rylan completely. In the end, the Sullivans will need to suffer at least a little bit.”

He stopped for a second or two to scratch the tip of his nose a little before continuing.

“And Domenic is no idiot either. He’s also aware that Kaiden will try his best to save his younger brother. That’s why he will send the summon as soon as the new day will begin. That means the Sullivans only have tonight to do something or….anything, to save their Second Young Master.”

The instant realization that dawned over every single person present inside the room was clearly visible.

The burly man’s words made perfect sense since they were reasonable and so far the only explanation why all the parties seemed in so much hurry to carry out their own tasks.

The Alessandros were too busy in taking care of their little sister that by the time they got the information about Rylan breaking the rule of the peace treaty, it was already evening.

And it was a well-known fact that no one was allowed to send a summon for the Elders of the Council after sunset and before sunrise.

Even though Alessandros, Sullivans, and Evans ruled the Council, however, even they needed to follow these rules unless the matter is too urgent to be put away for even a few hours.

“It’s time. Let’s head to work and remember, there’s no chance for failure.” The burly man said as he stared at the group of men who immediately nodded their heads.

The night was about to change so many things.

***

No matter how much Emily tried but the thoughts that were filling up every single inch of her brain just did not let her sleep.

She had been turning and tossing for the last three hours, making sure not to wake up Leo who was sleeping on the other side of the bed.

The fact that she could not even have the freedom to toss and turn in her bed only increased her frustration.

She was sleepy, however, the moment she tried to close her eyes and succumb to that sleep, all her thoughts started jumping in front of her eyes making it impossible for her to sleep.

Finally, she sat up in her bed and let out a long frustrated sigh.

The moonlight that was filtering into her room through the open window, provided enough brightness.

Moreover, since she was not sleeping all this time, her eyes were already used to the darkness that was filling the corners of her room.

Slowly, she got up from her bed, and after hesitating for a minute or two, finally made her way towards the door.

The house was quiet, too quiet for her to not feel creepy, and a little bit afraid as she very slowly opened the door and peeked outside.

The hallway was filled with very low brightness, making her instantly fill with relief when she did not find it covered in darkness.

After closing the door behind her, she made her way towards the beautiful French doors that opened into the huge balcony overlooking the backyard of the mansion.

Even though she had been living in the mansion for almost two months by now, but she had barely explored about sixty percent of the mansion and the area around it.

As she stood in the balcony lost deep in her thoughts, the light and cool night breeze started making the stiffness present inside her limbs disappear little by little.

Soon enough, she was feeling light and relaxed as she took in a deep breath.

The full moon that was shining in the sky above made a small smile appear on her lips as she gazed at it.

That sight was beyond beautiful.

As she basked on the beautiful silvery moonlight and the cool breeze, her eyes suddenly landed on a figure down below in the backyard.

Since the mansion was built on a height, the backyard was also constructed in such a way that there were floors of lawns one after the other.

There were a total of five lawns that were built in the entire area that was covering the backyard of the mansion.

Even though the silhouette was too far away for her to clearly see it but there was no way that she could not recognize those familiar silver hairs.

The calmness that had taken over her chaotic mind suddenly disappeared as the panic and fear returned in its place.

If her brothers got their hands on Rylan then there’s no way she would not be facing some serious consequences.

Even before Emily could realize what she’s thinking, she found herself running down the balcony stairs that led her directly towards the top floor of the backyard lawns.

She completely forgot that she was forbidden from stepping out of the mansion all alone, especially during nighttime.
