"I'm worried about Ayanna." Cedric said.
"Send her some bodyguards." Alexi had always believed that a show of force was the best form of protection.
"We're up against someone that doesn't care about the number of armed guards that we have." Cedric explained.
"Why do I have a feeling that I'm involved with what you have in mind?" Ray said worriedly.
"I just want to advance an announcement that I think will happen several years down the line." Cedric said with a shrug.
"Nope! Not doing it! Are you crazy? Ayanna will hate the both of us. It will be alright for you! You're her brother, she had no choice in that. I on the other hand will lose every opportunity I have!" Ray complained. He already knew what Cedric wanted to do. He wanted to create a deterrent . He wanted Carlos De Dios to feel like hurting Ayanna wouldn't just put him in the bad books of the Reyeses but with those of the Laurences as well.
"We'll tell Ayanna it's for her sake!" Cedric reasoned.
