Meanwhile in Dilli…
[Miss, they've arrived to pick you up.]
Claire's secretary informed her. The escort from her husband, Roy, had arrived outside her mansion after having all the security checks and inspections. They were there to bring her to the airport and onward to USL, where she and Roy would meet for the grand event.
"Sure, let's go," she said and immediately stood from her office chair. She was traveling light, bringing only her phone and the glasses she was wearing—no bags, no extra clothing—a security measure they had agreed on.
Stepping out of her office, she found her assistant and the guards Roy had assigned for her. These bodyguards had replaced Terry, who was on leave. The group would be traveling with her. "Let's get going," she said, walking past them. The guards nodded and fell into position behind her.
"Miss, do you think it's safe to go without any of your personal security?" asked Alex, Claire's head of security.
