Chapter 293 Sounds Like A Plan  "What was so important that you had to call us out here?" Bryan asked with a scowl as he and Sonia joined Lucy and Tom in the bar room. They had just finished making love and were almost drifting off to sleep when Tom's call came in, asking them to join him at the bar.

Sonia walked over to where Lucy was seated with her back to the door, laughing at something Tom had said, and she hugged her from behind, "My bestest girl," she said as she kissed Lucy's cheek.

"Get off me," Lucy said grudgingly as she tried to shrug her hands off.

"What? You can forgive Tom who got you the dress and was making you moan that way in the presence of everybody, but not me who was scolded in your place?" Sonia asked incredulously as she let go of Lucy and then pulled Lucy's hair.

She stuck out her tongue when Lucy turned to glare at her, and both brothers laughed in amusement as Bryan pulled Sonia away from Lucy who looked like she was going to pull Sonia's hair out the next moment, "Stop being a troublemaker," Bryan chided as he made her sit on the couch opposite Lucy. 

Tom turned in his seat to look at Lucy, "My jewel, you should let it go. Sonia did nothing wrong. It was my fault after all," Tom said, and a blush stained Lucy's cheeks as she looked at Tom, and Sonia exchanged an amused look with Bryan.

"Can you do that for me?" Tom asked as he lifted her left hand to his lips and kissed her palm, causing warmth to spread from Lucy's palm to the rest of her body, and her toes curled in response as she gave him a nod.

"Seriously, Lu? You only just met Tom some weeks ago, yet you're doing this to me? Now I'm the one who is pissed. I've been your boyfriend for all these years, and now the moment you got a real boyfriend, you dumped me," Sonia complained, and this time it was Lucy who stuck out her tongue, and the brothers laughed.

"There is no need to be pissed. Lucy had every right to be mad at you but not at Tom. So don't take it personally, okay?" Bryan said, kissing Sonia's neck, and she pushed him away.

"You are taking Lucy's side too," Sonia complained with a pout, and Lucy rolled her eyes when Bryan placed both hands on Sonia's cheeks and kissed her face until she started to giggle. 

Tom cleared his throat, "If we are done now, can we go on with the reason I called you here? It will be time for dinner soon, and I'm sure we all have stuff to do before then."

"Yeah. So tell us. What is the agenda for this meeting?"

"I want us to talk about how to deal with Anita," Tom said, and Sonia sat up as she pulled away from Bryan.

"Yes, we should definitely talk about that," Sonia said with a scowl once she remembered that someone like Anita was still in existence.

"The question here is; what should we do?" Lucy asked with a sigh.

"Maybe you should start by firing the bitch," Sonia suggested spitefully. 

"No. I don't think firing her cuts what she did. And if I fire her, she will know that we are on to her. I don't want her to know that either," Tom said as his gaze moved from Bryan to Sonia and them back again.

"What about we repay her in like manner? Let's use all the evidence we have to expose her publicly," Sonia suggested thoughtfully.

"Or Lucy can get close to her and get more personal information..."

"No. Lucy is not going anywhere near her," Tom interrupted before Bryan could continue.

"I don't know how far she is willing to go to get what she wants, and I honestly do not care. But I'm not going to let Lucy act as bait to get her. I'm not taking any risk with Lucy's physical or emotional wellbeing," Tom said, and Bryan gave him a nod.

"So what do you suggest we do? I take it you have something in mind already?" Bryan asked curiously. 

"Yes. I already asked Alicia to look into every member of her family and dig up all their dirty dealings. I think she is being so audacious because she has them behind her. So we are going to do the same thing she tried to do to Lucy by discrediting Sonia. We will remove everyone she has around her from the picture before dealing with her. It is only until she watches her family lose everything they have because of her that she would realize that she messed with the wrong person," Tom said, and Sonia rubbed her hands together gleefully.

"That sounds like a plan."

"Cool. What about Simon? What should we do about him? We should let mom know, right?" Bryan asked with a concerned frown.

"Don't tell her until we find out why he did it. We should at least know the kind of offer that she made to make him turn his back on you," Tom said with a sigh.

"He has always been a snitch. He only just got a better offer this time. There's nothing else to it," Bryan said bitterly, and Sonia placed her hand over his to calm him. 

"Still, you should confront him. Maybe she blackmailed him," Sonia insisted while Tom yawned in boredom since he really didn't like the topic being discussed. 

"Or maybe you could tell your mom about it, and she can ask him why he did it. It would be best if you trusted her enough to let her handle it since she brought him to you in the first place," Lucy suggested.

"I think I agree with Lucy," Sonia said with a nod. 

"We should talk to her about it together," Bryan told Tom, and he gave him a nod. 

"Hey! Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but your mom wanted me to let you know that dinner is being served," Candace announced from the doorway, and they all turned to look at her.

"Sure. Jade said to tell you that she is coming over tomorrow. You can't let our parents know about it, though. It's supposed to be a surprise visit," Bryan told her, and she gave him a nod of acknowledgment before walking away. 

"We should freshen up before we join them," Tom suggested to Lucy as he stood up.

"Freshen up? But what I'm wearing is fine," she said as she looked down at the sweatpants she was wearing with Tom's polo t-shirt, which looked really big on her. 

Tom grinned, "You're missing just one little thing. Let's go. I'll show you," Tom said as he offered her his hand and then pulled her up, "See you soon," Tom told Sonia and Bryan with a wave as he led Lucy out of the bar room. 

Just as they left, Sonia's phone started ringing, and Bryan took it out of his pocket and handed it to her without looking at it. 

"It's Mia," Sonia informed Bryan as she received the call. 

"Hey, Mia!"

"I hope I'm not calling at a bad time?" Mia asked politely.

"No, you're not. How are you?" Sonia asked, genuinely happy to hear from Mia.

"I'm fine. I would have called before now, but I didn't know how you would react after all that has happened, so I decided to keep my distance," Mia explained apologetically.

"Come on, Mia. You're like a sister to me. There's no reason to be awkward around me. I know that none of what happened was your fault," Sonia assured her.

"I'm relieved to hear that. And I'm happy to know that you resolved your difference with Bryan. From the moment he proposed to you, I kinda knew that you would be the one to tame him," Mia said, and Sonia giggled as she adjusted so that she was sitting on Bryan's thighs.

"I'm not sure he is fully tamed yet. Time will tell," Sonia said as she touched Bryan's lips, and he cocked a brow. 

"I'm confident that you can do that. Thanks for keeping your promise and not hurting him," Mia said, and Sonia smiled. 

"And thank you for helping me and believing in me."

"It's nothing... By the way, Uhm... I quit my job. I stopped working with the agency that Bryan worked for," Mia said, and Sonia pretended to be surprised.

"Oh! You did? Why?"

"I can't work there anymore, not after seeing how they were willing to tarnish your image just to protect Bryan's career. Besides, since Bryan canceled his contract with them, there's no reason for me to be there," Mia said with a shake of her head. 

Sonia sighed, "I understand. Did you get a new job yet?" 

"No. Not yet. It's still weekend, after all. I'm still just checking out different job vacancies on the internet."

"Why haven't you given Bryan a call yet?" Sonia asked curiously, "Maybe you should give him a call and find out if he would still need your service before you start applying for other jobs," Sonia suggested as she looked at Bryan who was playing with her hair.

"You think he might?" Mia asked hopefully.

"Sure. Bryan likes and respects you a lot, even if he doesn't show it. I'm sure he will want to keep working with you. I would like that too," Sonia said, making Mia smile in relief.

"Alright, I will give him a call right away..."

"You don't have to. He's here with me. I'll just pass him the phone," Sonia said and held out the phone to Bryan.

"Will you like to move to Ludus?" Bryan asked once he took the phone from Sonia.

"Huh?" Mia asked in confusion.

"I may have to spend more time over here in Ludus because I will be signing with an agency over here. If you don't mind moving, you can retain your job as my assistant," Bryan offered.

"With a salary raise?" Mia bargained. 

"What?"

"Not everyone is blessed to have a loyal assistant like me. And from experience, not everyone can stand you either. So if I'm relocating to Ludus for your sake, I should at least get a better salary than I was receiving before. And there have to be nice offers too," Mia said reasonably. 

"Alright. I will add that to my terms when I sign the contract," Bryan said with a sigh. 

"If I may ask, what agency are you signing with?" Mia asked curiously.

"Let that be a surprise. The moment everything is set, I will let you know," Bryan said before hanging up the call. 

"I guess you've made up your mind to take Tom's offer?" Sonia asked, and Bryan shrugged. 

"I don't see why not."
