CHAPTER 731
The story of Janell and Lucas is officially ready to go! I look forward to seeing my companions who are looking forward to Janell and Lucas's story.
It all began in Broadway, New York, the United States of America.
The familiar hustling and bustling, the big city, and the famous streets. People from all over the world lived their own wonderful stories here every day.
Today, there was a major event that was going on in one of the concert halls. It was a celebration of the 18th birthday of Shengtian's global leader's daughter. The stage, the lights, the props, the actors, the audience, everything was ready.
The Carter family had already been waiting for a long time in the VIP seats. After today, the apple of their eyes would become an eighteen-year-old young lady. They were excited to watch their little loved one dance to the public.
However, at this moment, the bodyguards who often followed the eldest daughter of the Carter family came in a hurry and handed a letter to the First Young Master of the family.
They said gingerly, "First Young Master, she left a letter, and she went missing."
"What?" The First Young Master put on a gloomy look. He was obviously angry, but he quickly concealed his emotions. He quickly opened the letter, and there were a few short sentences written on the letter, "Daddy, Mommy, I have become a grown up today, and now, I want to see the outside world alone. Don't worry, and don't miss me! Love, Janell."
Although the letter was brief, you could tell how happy she was when she wrote the letter.
"Get someone to chase her right away." Andrew Carter raised his hand and checked the time. "We must bring her back before the banquet starts."
"First Young Master, she left for the airport three hours ago. Now she's on the plane heading towards the capital city of Country A." Another bodyguard rushed over and reported the news he just received to his master.
"You guys.." When Andrew heard this, he was very angry. He specifically asked them to keep an eye on her, but he didn't expect that she could still run away.
"If she wants to be free, then just let her be. When times get hard, she will know the love of her parents and family." An adorable little boy suddenly interrupted his words. Any stranger would know that this young boy seemed wise beyond his age!
…..
Country A, Capital International Airport.
The huge electronic screen at the arrival hall showed that flight HH389 from New York to Country A had arrived on time. However, after waiting for half an hour, Samantha Lesley still didn't see the person she was waiting for.
Not only did she not see the person she was waiting for, but she couldn't get through to the person's phone too. She was getting worried. Samantha waited and waited. When she was about to head to the information counter to ask for help, the guest she was waiting for finally arrived.
The guest was a tall, young girl. She was wearing a white T- shirt and denim jeans. She had a cap on her head, and donned a pair of sunglasses. Samantha couldn't see her eyes. She only knew that even though her guest wore casual clothes, she still couldn't hide her elegance.
It was the elegance of the rich! Yes!
Samantha admitted that Janell Carter looked like a typical young lady from a respectable family. She always appeared calm as she knew how to mask her emotions well. She treated everyone politely and spoke eloquently. She ticked all the checkboxes of a perfect young lady. In fact, that was only the side that Janell was willing to show to others.
"What does she really look like?" Samantha thought of these words to describe her. A little devil! Yes, she was just a little devil!
Janell would always mess with people terribly, but no one had ever suspected her of her mischief. It was not because her family was rich, but because this girl was too good at disguising her deeds.
Even Samantha, who would always help her run errands, would doubt if Janell meant her words when she asked her to do those bad things.
"Hi, Janell, I'm here!" Samantha waved at Janell and tried to jump, hoping that Janell could see her in the crowd. However, things didn't happen as she wished. Samantha was not noticeable, yet Janell was too noticeable.
In the short distance that Janell walked over to the exit, a lot of people cast their eyes on her. She hated people who would stare at her, but she didn't show it. She just raised her hand and adjusted the sunglasses that could cover almost half of her face.
Samantha understood her and knew that it was a sign of her being annoyed. As she imagined the consequences of annoying Janell, Samantha couldn't help but shudder. She.rushed through the crowd and came to Janell's side.
"Janell, where have you been? I waited for you for a long time and couldn't get through to you. I was so worried."
"I sneaked out from home. Do you think I can take my mobile phone with me?" Janell glanced at Samantha through her sunglasses. How can she still be so ignorant after being her friend for so many years?
Because she had been kidnapped before when she was a child, her dearest father had installed a tracking device on her mobile phone. No matter where she went, her dear father would know.
She was not stupid. She clearly knew that the mobile phone was equipped with a GPS. Did Samantha want Andrew to grab her back to New York after just half a day?
"Oh.." Samantha scratched her head and smiled awkwardly. "How could I forget about this?"
"What else can you forget?" Janell didn't know why such a high IQ person like herself would become friends with a fool like Samantha.
Perhaps they became good friends because Samantha was always so innocent and simple-minded, so she couldn't bear to see Samantha get bullied. "Ha ha.."
Samantha couldn't refute any of her words, "Let me guess, you couldn't get anything when I asked you to help me find the person right?" Janell did not expect Samantha to help her find the person she was looking for.
The reason why she contacted Samantha in Country A was because she needed a place to stay. If she went to the hotel, she would be taken back by Jayden very soon, so it was wiser to stay in Samantha's place.
Samantha replied, "Janell, you don't remember what the man looks like, and you don't even remember his full name. Even if you ask a famous detective to find him, he may not be able to find him either."
Hearing Samantha's words, Janell's face turned gloomy. She felt a little painful and powerless. She was right! Samantha was right. The Brother Lucas whom she missed so much was just a person who lived in her memory.
She did not know what Brother Lucas looked like and she did not know his name. She did not know where he was. Everything about him was so unfamiliar to her.
She only vaguely remembered that Brother Lucas was very tall and looked good when he smiled. He liked to hold her in his arms and kiss her...
She still remembered that Brother Lucas asked her to bring the chain he gave her and find him when she grew up. As for the other memories about him, they had long since disappeared from her memory..
CHAPTER 732
As she recalled what Brother Lucas had said, Janell Carter clenched the necklace that had a special totem around her neck unknowingly.
In the past, she did not notice that in the very centre of the totem, there was a tiny engraving of the word Lucas. Because she remembered that this chain was given to her by Brother Lucas, so she had been wearing it all these years, treating it as her treasure.
No matter what kind of clothes she wore, she would always wear this necklace. Due to her popularity, she even started a vintage trend in school. However, none of the necklaces those people wore had the same pattern as the totem that Janell had.
Janell noticed something unique about the pendant, so she searched everywhere for information about the totem. She searched through the library in the school, the books in her house, and all the bookstores in New York, but she couldn't find anything.
Since she could not find any relevant information from books, Janell searched tirelessly on the Internet for a hint. Finally, she found a piece of information about this totem on an antique website.
With only a short explanation, it stated that the totem was a symbol of authority in Country A. This meant that Brother Lucas, who gave her the special necklace, must be in Country A. Therefore, on the day when Janell turned 18 years old, she couldn't wait to come to Country A to find Brother Lucas.
"Janell, but it doesn't matter, as long as you try very hard, you can achieve anything. You're so adamant on looking for Brother Lucas, you will definitely find him." Even though she couldn't help, Samantha knew she needed to be supportive.
"You fool, are you comforting me?" Janell took off her sunglasses, revealing her big watery eyes, and said firmly, "Of course I can find my Brother Lucas."
However, there was no plan at the moment. In such a big country, it was not easy to find a man with just a necklace. Therefore, she knew she couldn't rush through the search process and needed to be safe.
Although she was young, she inherited her father's good genes. Since she was a child, she always planned ahead and did things efficiently.
She was being a little stubborn to come over to find Brother Lucas this time. She did not think much about the consequences of coming over, but she did not regret doing so. She was already eighteen years old and she could be responsible for her actions. She knew what she was doing.
At a loss, Samantha scratched her head again. "Janell, I'm worried about you."
Janell put her hand on Samantha's shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. I haven't eaten for more than ten hours. Find me a place so I can eat my heart out."
"I know what you like to eat. I have already arranged it." Samantha did not know how to find Brother Lionel, but as an experienced foodie, she was very good at looking for good food.
In the capital city of Country A, Samantha would always try her best to look for great food no matter near or far. "Silly girl, you've finally done something that can satisfy me. Let's go."
Janell dragged Samantha and ran away. Her elegant vibe earlier turned into a youthful and lively vibe that she should have at her age.
…….
In the North Palace of the capital city of Country A.
The North Palace was located in the center of the capital city and it was heavily guarded. There were special forces patrolling for 24 hours in the surrounding areas. It was where the President of Country A worked.
In the past few days, security was even tighter. It was said that a lot of special forces were dispatched to guard in front of the president's office, and they would ensure the safety of the President at all times.
The current President was stepping down soon, and a new President was about to take office. After the national election, the third son of the previous President won the position of being the next President by winning over 60% of the people's votes.
The new President would be sworn in the day after tomorrow. This was a global news, hence security needed to be tighter.
Just as a group of people were busy arranging procedures for the transition of presidency, a young man rushed into the president's office without even knocking. When he opened the door and saw that the President was in a meeting, it was too late to turn back. He had to say respectfully, "Mr. President."
Before he could finish speaking, the President waved his hand to stop him. Mr. President signed a document, stamped it with a personal seal, and handed it to a secretary beside him. "Go ahead with the inauguration ceremony. Get busy."
"Yes." The secretary took the document and led a group of people to leave the room. As soon as the staff left, the President immediately looked at the man who just walked over and said, "Speak."
The man quickly said, "Samantha has brought Miss Carter back to the Lesley family home safely."
"Alright, you did a good job." The President nodded, but he didn't say much.
The man added, "I have arranged for the most elite people to protect her as you ordered. During the time when she is in Country A, her safety will be ensured."
After listening to the man's words, the President's eyes squinted a little. The man didn't know what Mr. President wanted to say, so he plucked up the courage and asked, "Mr. President, just tell me if you need anything."
The President smiled and asked calmly, "Jason, how long have you been working under me?"
Jason Lesley answered without hesitation, "Five years and two months."
"Five years and two months?" The President repeated his words and said, "Five years isn't a long time, but I've assigned this special task to you. Do you know why?"
Jason Lesley nodded and said, "It's all because of you, Mr. President, that our family can still serve the country. You have done us a great favor, and we will never forget that."
The President said, "Regarding the incident a few years ago, the Lesley family was framed. I stood out to talk about it, to give your family justice, not because I am biased. I didn't do much of the saving, but your own family did. Everyone knows the Lesley family's integrity well."
The Lesley family was framed during the time when the eldest son of the former President was the most powerful. At that time, many people knew that the Lesley family had been wrongly blamed, but only the Third Young Master stood up and spoke on behalf of the Lesley family.
At that time, the Third Young Master helped to clear the injustice of the Lesley family, but he was also sentenced to confinement by his eldest brother for half a year.
From that time on, the Lesley family decided to follow the Third Young Master's orders and requests loyally. They wanted to repay his kind deeds.
Jason suddenly understood that their young and promising Mr. President didn't want the Lesley family to repay his kindness, but he trusted them because of their nobility and loyalty. He entrusted the Lesley family to protect the person he cared about the most.
CHAPTER 733
After realizing his family's importance, Jason Lesley said excitedly, "Mr. President, don't worry. I will protect Miss Carter well, and I will not let any information get leaked out. If she ever lost a strand of hair, you can have my life."
"I trust you and your family." The President nodded with satisfaction, "Then you should go back first. Please have Samantha take good care of her for me. You must remember that she must have a lamp on when she sleeps."
When Janell was almost four years old, she was caught and locked up in a sealed bucket. Since then, she had been particularly afraid of the dark. After so many years, she was still afraid. He remembered this detail very well, so he repeated the same detail to Jason too.
Jason was the right hand man of the President, and Samantha was his younger sister. She went to New York to study three years ago, and she happened to become Janell Carter's classmate.
Surely, this couldn't be a coincidence. All of this was arranged by the President. She placed his closest comrades to be alongside Janell, so he could get updates about her too.
More than a decade had passed. He had grown to be a mature man, and now he was the new President of Country A. His Janell had grown from being a little toddler to a graceful young lady.
Besides, she remembered what he had told her before. If she wanted to see Brother Lucas, she could come to him with the special necklace that he had given her after she grew up. She was finally here, but he couldn't see her due to many complications. He couldn't meet her, so he could only protect her silently behind her back.
After Jason left, Aaron Paul came in. Seeing their new President staring at him in a daze, he was worried and said, "Third Young Master, the day after tomorrow is your inauguration ceremony. Everyone will be watching you. You can't make any mistakes."
No one else knew what the Third Young Master's intentions were, but Aaron, who had always been with him and was several years older than him, knew that the Third Young Master had been worried about the child throughout all these years.
He always prepared something for her birthday every year and asked someone to send it to her. However, because the gifts were sent anonymously, his gifts would drown in the pit of all her other birthday gifts.
He had sent gifts to her for more than ten years now. Even if she had never opened up his gifts, he still sent them to her every year. He never missed her birthday and this year was no different.
However, Janell's birthday gift that was sent to New York lately was ignored again. This time, Janell flew to Country A alone before her birthday celebration.
Lucas didn't respond to Aaron. His eyes were still looking at the photo on the desk. It seemed that he was so absorbed that he didn't hear Aaron's words.
Aaron added, "Third Young Master, when the child grows up, she will have her own life, and she will fall in love with other men. Maybe she will meet a man who can protect her for the rest of her life soon."
"So what?" Lucas looked at the photo of Janell and questioned Aaron without even looking at him. No matter how old the child was, no matter who she would meet in the future... As her big brother, couldn't he protect her?
"Nothing." Aaron coughed and said,
"Your fiance, the daughter of the Silas family, is definitely going to attend the inauguration ceremony with you. I just want to remind you of that fact."
As a man who had been taking care of the little girl for more than ten years, Aaron wouldn't believe that he would have no feelings for her if she appeared in front of him looking like a beautiful young lady.
"You guys can just arrange everything for me. I know what I should do and shouldn't do."
He had been holding back for so many years now. Would he lose his cool at such a critical moment? He knew better than anyone how bumpy the road to climb to the peak of authority was. He knew what he needed to do.
"Janell, this is the room that I specially asked someone to prepare for you. Maybe it's not as comfortable as your own room, but I think it's not that bad."
Samantha Lesley took Janell Carter into the room that her helpers had cleaned up. Looking at the cartoon decorations, she liked it very much, and she believed that Janell would also like it.
"Alright, my dear Samantha, thank you for being so thoughtful!" Janell gave Samantha a big hug. "It's all thanks to you that I can receive such a high-class treatment in a foreign place."
In fact, she didn't really like the colour pink that was painted in the room, but these were all thoughtfully prepared by Samantha for her. As her guest, she was very appreciative.
"Haha. Janell, don't worry about it. In New York, you also took good care of me." Samantha was secretly very happy to be praised by Janell. "There are so many people in the world, and you are the only one who can skip grades with me and finish college in advance. If I don't treat you well, then who else?"
Janell inherited her father's high IQ, and she finished her course at a well-known college at a young age. Samantha was a clueless person in life, but she was a straight-A student when it comes to academics.
Therefore, only she could keep up with Janell's learning speed. "Well, we're good classmates."
Samantha said, "Janell, if you're afraid of sleeping alone at night, I can sleep with you."
"Scared? Have you ever seen me afraid of anything?" Even if she was really scared, Janell would never show her vulnerable side to others.. If she could not overcome her little fears, how could she find her Brother Lucas?
"Then, take a shower and rest early. I'll be in the next room. If you need anything, call me." Samantha answered calmly.
"Alright, you should rest too." Janell threw herself in bed and rolled around comfortably. "Brother Lucas, I'm here to see you. You must recognize me."
Sometimes, she was really scared. She was worried that if she stood face to face with her Brother Lucas, they wouldn't be able to recognize each other.
Janell did not want to think about it too much. Since she was here, she was sure that she could find Brother Lucas. In fact, sometimes, she also did not understand why she needed to find a person whose face she couldn't even remember.
Perhaps there was a voice in her heart that kept telling her to find him, to make up for the times he wasn't with her when she was little.
She should be very tired after travelling for a whole day, but after she took a shower, she didn't feel sleepy at all. There was always a pleasant boy's voice in her ears that said, "Janell, don't be afraid, Brother Lucas will protect you and beat up all the bad guys.".
CHAPTER 734
Janell Carter held a pillow in her arms and patted it, "Brother Lucas, I've grown up and I'm no longer an innocent child anymore. I don't need you to help me take out the bad guys. I just hope that I can find you as soon as possible. I've been missing you a lot."
As for what she would do after telling Brother Lucas that she missed him, Janell wasn't sure. She turned over and looked at the ceiling. Maybe Brother Lucas had already gotten married and had children. His children might have already grown up too.
As she thought about the possibility of Brother Lucas having his own family, Janell's heart suddenly twitched. She felt so downhearted. Was she being too selfish?
She did not want to see Brother Lucas getting married and having children. She hoped that he would wait for her to grow up. But she knew that might be impossible. For the entire night, Janell thought about too many things, so she could only fall asleep after midnight.
The next morning, she only woke up in the afternoon. When she woke up, she thought she was at home. She habitually reached out to pick her phone so her little precious brother could sing her a wake-up song.
She was used to doing this so that she would feel energised. However, she stretched out her hand and touched around her side table for some time, but she could not get hold of the phone.
Then she remembered that she was in a foreign land and could not see her cute brother. She was wondering if the Little Precious back home missed his sister?
He would probably think of her. Although he was only eight years old, he always put on a proud and cold look like their father.
She guessed that he would not miss her. If her Little Precious did not miss her, her grandparents and parents would definitely worry about her. She left her mobile phone at home, thus they could not get in touch with her.
Would they wonder if something bad had happened to her? She thought that she needed to call her parents and tell them that she was safe so that they could rest assured.
Ruffling through her untidy hair, Janell lay on her bed lazily for a few more minutes before she got up slowly from the bed.
"Janell, are you awake?" Samantha Lesley knocked on Janell's door right on time. "It's already noon. If you don't get up now, the sun will go down soon."
"Dear Miss Lesley, are you my mother?" Janell opened the door in her unkempt state and let Samantha in.
"Haha.." Samantha wore her usual silly smile and said, "My brother is at home today and wants to have lunch with us."
"Your brother?" Janell pondered for a moment. He was like the parent of the family, so she had to present herself well, as to not leave a bad impression on him. Samantha's parents passed away early, and she was raised by her older brother. Naturally, her brother was like a father to her.
In front of strangers, Janell dressed up very well and acted like a pleasant young lady. She showed her elegance well. When she saw Jason Lesley, who handled affairs for the President, she did not lose her confidence at all.
"Hello, Miss Carter! Welcome to our place." This was the person whom their Mr. President wanted to protect. Jason treated her so well as though he was dealing with Mr. President's wife.
"Hello, Mr. Lesley!" Janell smiled politely. "I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
"Not at all, not at all." Jason reassured her, "You are Samantha's classmate, and her home is also your home. You don't need to worry about anything."
"Thank you, Mr. Lesley!" She did not intend to be polite, but after all, he was still a stranger, so she had to be courteous.
After lunch, Jason still lazed around at home. Samantha asked, "Brother, isn't the new President's inauguration ceremony tomorrow? Don't you need to help out?"
"Yeah, I'll be going over later." The President gave him an off day. His task was to take care of the distinguished guest in his home, so he did not have to go to work. However, since his silly sister asked him about work, and he did not know how to answer her, hence he had to pack up and leave.
A few days ago, the national elections in Country A stirred up the headlines. Janell knew about it, but because it had nothing to do with her, she did not pay much attention to it. What she was concerned about was how to find her Brother Lucas in the shortest time possible.
After Jason left, Janell took out her notebook and came up with different plans to search for Brother Lucas.
Samantha approached her and blabbered non-stop, "Janell, tomorrow is the inauguration ceremony of the new President. Let's just go and see what it's like. I'm telling you, you must see our new President. He is young and handsome. Many girls dream of meeting him." Thinking of their new President, Samantha almost drooled.
"Wipe your drool!" Janell shot Samantha a look. She couldn't care less about 'handsome' men out there. Her father, her uncle, and her brother Andrew Carter, were all extremely handsome men. She did not believe that anyone could be more handsome than them.
"Are you sure you don't want to go?" Samantha nudged her and said, "Janell, let's go. It's just a day's time. I won't hold you up looking for your Brother Lucas."
"I'm not going." Janell declined immediately. She was not in the mood to do anything else apart from finding Brother Lucas.
Upon hearing Janell's rejection, Samantha was a little disappointed, but soon she cheered up again. "Janell, let's go. Think about this. There will be so many people attending the ceremony tomorrow. People from all walks of life. Who knows you might bump into your Brother Lucas."
"Well then, let's go." The more people there were, the more information and clues she could get. She did not have high hopes of finding Brother Lucas tomorrow, but it was also good to find some clues.
The inauguration ceremony of the President was a grand occasion that occurred every few years in Country A. On this day, many people with high ranking positions would come to the capital city, and the newly-appointed President would make a declaration in front of the whole nation.
Early in the morning, cars were forbidden from entering and exiting several streets near the North Palace. Pedestrians had to go through strict security checking before entering the speech arena. The land and air forces prioritized security in all aspects to ensure that the ceremony could be carried out safely and well.
Because of Samantha's special status, Janell did not have to squeeze through the crowd outside. She could watch the young and handsome new President from a close distance.
"Janell, put this work pass on properly. Don't lose it. Otherwise, you might be arrested." Samantha began to nag like an old woman again.
"Do you think I'm as careless as you?" She understood that the work pass served as her identity. She would not be so absent-minded as to lose something that proved her identity.
The inauguration ceremony had not started yet. Janell looked around and saw that everyone was busy. Meanwhile, Samantha and her looked like the only fools who were out of place..
Samantha suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "Janell, look, that's our new President."
Janell looked in the direction where Samantha pointed, but she only managed to catch a glimpse of the new President with his back turned..
CHAPTER 735
There was a group of people following behind the new President. Janell Carter's view was obstructed by the group of people behind the president, so she could only catch a glimpse of his back.
"Janell, he's handsome, isn't he?" Samantha Lesley's eyes sparkled as she looked at him. She was almost drooling, and she looked like a fangirl.
"Samantha, wipe your drool again." How could a back view fascinate this girl so much? Janell really wanted to see this new President's face and see if his looks could beat her father's.
Samantha really lifted her hand to wipe her drooling saliva. She grabbed Janell and said, "Janell, come with me. I know a position where we can see the President clearly."
"Samantha, slow down!" Janell slowed down. With this work pass, she had to look like a staff member. It would be easy for people to notice she was out of place if she was shoving and barging around.
"Oh, Miss Carter, besides me, no one will notice you here. What kind of image are you still trying to maintain?"
Samantha was anxious and keen to see her Prince Charming. They passed through the lobby on the first floor of the office building, then sprinted up to the second floor along the spiral wooden stairs.
After a while, they stopped at the end of the corridor on the left side of the stairs. Samantha opened the door and led Janell in. "Janell, come in. If we look down from the window, we can see the position where Mr. President would deliver his speech."
Janell walked towards the window and looked up. Sure enough, she saw a podium on the opposite side, and Mr. President was standing in front of the towers of the North Palace.
There were many high ranking officials by his sides. Seeing that man and his handsome face, a vague image of a boy suddenly appeared in Janell's mind.
That boy often held the little girl in his arms and gave her pecks on her chubby cheek. "Janell, 'll be leaving now. When you grow up, take my necklace and look for your brother Lucas."
"Brother Lucas?" Janell could not help but exclaim the name that had been buried deep in her heart for many years.
She stared at the President's every move. He waved his hand at the crowd below the tower. With a warm smile on his face, he began his speech.
Janell did not listen to his speech. She fixed her eyes on his face as if she wanted to find something from his face. A face that she had not been able to remember clearly.
She vaguely remembered that there was a beautiful voice that said to her. "Janell, you have to be good." "Janell, don't be afraid. I will protect you." "Janell..."
The indistinct face in her memory gradually morphed into the face of the new President, and in her mind, they were the same person. "Janell, our President is so young and excellent, and his fiancée is also not bad. They're the perfect match for each other." Samantha did not notice Janell's unusual behavior. She was dancing with excitement.
The word "fiancée" was like a bucket of cold water poured onto Janell's head, and she was suddenly brought back to reality by the cold splash. She gently shifted her gaze and looked at the graceful and elegant woman standing next to Mr. President.
They stood hand in hand, appearing before the whole nation. The new President and his fiancée were such a dazzling couple. Just looking at them from afar was enough to make anyone admire how perfect they were.
"Samantha, what's the name of your new President?" Janell grabbed Samantha and asked anxiously. "Mr. President's name is Nathaniel Cooper, and his fiancée is Serene Silas. She also comes from an influential family." Samantha replied.
"Nathaniel Cooper?" Janell repeated this name in her mind. There was no "Lucas" in his name, so was he related to her Brother Lucas?
The new President of Country A, and Brother Lucas from her memory. how could she suddenly think that the new President was her Brother Lucas?
Perhaps in her heart, her Brother Lucas indeed had the looks of a President. He was handsome and had great facial features. Whenever he smiled, his smile was like a warm sun in a chilly winter and he could radiate warmth.
Seeing Janell in a daze, Samantha reached out and waved her hand in front of her eyes. "Janell, what's wrong?"
"Samantha, I want to meet your new President. I have something to ask him." Janell was not a person who would flinch in case of trouble. On the contrary, she was a little lady who would never give up until she achieved her goals.
Instead of worrying a lot, she wanted to ask him directly. If he was her Brother Lucas, then he would definitely remember her. Even if he did not have a vivid memory of her, since they spent a great deal of time together before, he would remember her anyhow. If she remembered him at such a young age, her Brother Lucas would definitely remember her too.
"Janell, do you really think our new President is your Brother Lucas?" Samantha's eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief.
Had this girl gone crazy looking for her Brother Lucas? As long as she saw a man who was pleasing to her eye, she would think that he was her Brother Lucas?
"Don't ask so many questions. I must see him today." When she needed a job done, Janell became dominant and acted like a leader.
"The only person that might help is my brother, but my brother will definitely not let me mess things up." Samantha scratched her head in awkwardness.
"Janell, the new President is definitely not your Brother Lucas. Just give up already." Their new President was the third son of the former President. Very few people had seen his face since he was a child. His family shielded him so well. How would he be able to travel and wander in foreign countries and get to know the young Janell Carter?
Janell changed the subject and said, "Mr. President will go back to his office later right?"
"Of course. After the speech, they should have a meeting to attend." While speaking, Samantha felt that something was wrong. "Janell, no way, I don't have the guts."
"Well, I know you don't have the guts. I can go by myself." Janell ought to do things right away once she had decided to do it. She was very persistent.
"Janell, how are you going to get in?" Samantha realised that she was causing trouble again, and it was a big, big trouble this time.
"Don't we have work passes? We can always think of a way to sneak into the President's office." Brainstorming for ways had always been Janell's forte. "Well then, this is my turf, so I can't let you take the risk alone."
Samantha closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "It's no big deal. At most, my brother will ground me at home for a month."
During this period, all the attention was focused on the President who was delivering his speech. The security inside the North Palace was relatively lax, but it was still not easy to sneak into the President's office.
On the way to the President's office, there was a guard after every few steps. It was absolutely impossible for them to sneak in. Fortunately, the work passes they had came in handy. The guards did not ask anything after seeing the work passes.
They walked all the way to the President's office effortlessly.
