Chapter 84 The Swan family in Los Angeles


“Yes, if you want to find a reliable bodyguard, the best choice is the Swan family in Los Angeles.”


“The Swan family is a famous gang family, and Los Angeles can barely be considered one of their bases.”


“If it were really as famous as you said, why haven’t I heard of it? Natalie frowned.


She had never heard of the Swan family in Los Angeles.


Philip smiled and spoke teasingly. “You’re all focused on Julian. You wish you could pick all the stars in the sky for him.


How could you care about these things? If you knew, it would be strange!”


Although he had not seen Natalie in those three years, the stories about the Graham family had already spread throughout the entire wealthy circle of Los Angeles.


Everything Natalie did to Julian became a laughing stock and a source of conversation for those wealthy


nobles after dinner.


He once intervened to stop, but it was a cure for the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Philip sighed deeply in his heart. How could a playboy like him have such an infatuated and irrational friend?


Didn’t everyone say that you become who you spend your time with?


Why did Natalie stay with him for so long without learning any of his strengths? Instead, she was so dull in


love.


Natalie curled her lips and whispered, “I wouldn’t pick stars for Julian.”


The wish she quietly made on that gorgeous night was still vivid in her mind I hope Henry will be my star,


the eternal star.”


The shooting star was a memory of her and Henry, but her star was no longer there.


Later, Natalie understood, Henry was right.


Making a wish on shooting star didn’t work at all.


How dare a person without stars delude themselves into picking stars for others?


Philip didn’t hear what Natalie was saying.


But he didn’t have to guess what she’s talking about. She must be defending that hateful guy, Julian.


Philip glanced at Natalie with his affectionate eyes, ‘Are you still not convinced? Are you still thinking about


his good intentions even after divorce?”


It’s really hard to teach her.


Natalie didn’t answer. There seemed to be something indescribable in her gaze, heavy and tired, which made people even couldn’t bear to take a second look.

That’s when Philip noticed.


Philip suddenly felt a bit flustered. “I won’t mention it, I won’t mention it again.”


He took it for granted that Natalie was sad about him mentioning Julian.


Natalie looked at him and said, “Let’s talk about business.”


Philip nodded and said, “Don’t be sad. It’s my bad, and I shouldn’t have mentioned these bad memories.”


He glanced at Natalie’s expression and cleared his throat after confirming that she was fine.


“The Swan family is a gang family. With just a few words, it can settle things down.


However, in recent years, it has disappeared a bit and is not behaving as recklessly as before.”


He still appreciated the Swan family’s actions.


“So where should I go to find it?” Natalie was confused. How could she find it even after it disappeared.


“The illegitimate business of the Swan family is underground, and without channels, it’s completely


impossible to find it.


Of course, you can’t find it. However, the bodyguard business is legitimate, and it’s easy for you to hire


bodyguards.”


I see.


Philp held a light smile and regained their carefree demeanor.


“I’ll give you the contact information of the Swan family’s branch in Los Angeles, and you can directly report


my name to him,” he said.


“The Swan family still has to respect me.”


Natalie nodded and said, “Then you can send me the information. I’ll start now.”


After the video chat was hung up.


Philip was very efficient in handling affairs. A few minutes later, she received a message.


She clicked on the address, roughly looked at the direction, and then started the car to go.


Natalie never procrastinated, and she always took action when she had ideas.


The car stopped in front of the coast south of Los Angeles.


Natalie looked out of the window and frowned, ‘Why is the company of the Swan family built here?”


She got out of the car and saw a scene of sea and sky in front of her. In the vast and boundless sea, the


seawater occasionally stirred up white waves.


After being blown by the sea breeze, the golden sunlight floating on the sea rippled like stars.


She walked quietly through the sea.


The fact that the Swan family built their company in such a scenery contrasted greatly with their


underground identity.


Natalie sighed in her heart.


She walked into the company smoothly, with a tall building and mostly black interior decoration, giving it a Tow-key and great momentum feeling.


Armed personnel with high security can be seen everywhere in the building.


Natalie took out her phone and called the number sent by Philip. In a short while, the call was connected, and


she said concisely,


“Hello, I would like to hire some bodyguards from your company. Philip recommended you to me.”


It’s you, Mr. Johnson has already told me in advance, and I’m coming down to pick you up now.” The other


person’s voice was very kind.


Soon someone came down to pick her up.


It’s a man with a cold and tough face, dressed in black suit, with a fierce and terrifying aura.


“This way, please.” The man’s voice was very soft and deep.


Natalie raised her eyes and looked at him.


Her intuition told her that the man in front of her had a dangerous aura, but she couldn’t find a word to


describe it.


“Okay.” Her face remained unchanged and she followed behind the man.


The elevator door opened and the two of them walked into the office one after the other.


After she entered the office, the man retreated out, and Natalie glanced back at his figure, and the description suddenly popped up in her mind.


–Pure black.


Dangerous yet giving a sense of security.


“Please take a seat,” said the man in the office, who was unusually kind and seemed out of place with this


black toned office.


“Okay.”


She wondered if it was due to Philip that the boss of Swan family almost complied with all her requirements, and she successfully negotiated everything.


She signed the contract and handed it to the other party.


“May I take you down?”


*No need, I’ll go down on my own. I remember the original path,” Natalie said with a simple and elegant smile.


He didn’t persist anymore.


Natalie opened the office door and walked out. She walked to the elevator door and quietly waited for the


elevator.


She had just left the elevator. The elevator door next to her also opened at the same time, and a figure


dressed in black walked past her


She frowned.


This figure was so familiar


She narrowed her eyes and looked at the figure in front, feeling more familiar as she looked, both in terms of


walking posture and overall body shape


How did it feel like Ryan?


Natalie blinked, carefully recalling Ryan’s figure and comparing it with the figure in front of her. It was really


similar


She hurried to catch up, and the man in front walked quickly, as if there was something urgent.


Even if Natalie strode, she couldn’t catch up


She thought he was going out the door, but the man turned directly into another corridor on the first floor


This corridor was very hidden. If it weren’t for the man suddenly walking in this direction, ordinary people


wouldn’t have noticed it


The corridor was even more guarded than the outside.


Natalie frowned, unable to follow in When she hesitated about calling out his name to try, the man had


already disappeared quietly.


Natalie stayed in place.


This figure really looked like Ryan.


Although she thought she wouldn’t mistake Ryan’s figure, she was a bit unsure when this figure appeared


here


Ryan usually studied medication. How did he appear here?


It’s obvious that there’s nothing to do with studying medication here… did he also come to hire bodyguards?


But she just signed the contract and knew in her heart how expensive the Swan family’s quotation was


Although Ryan worked at Glory Group and earned a high salary, he cannot earn that much money to hire a bodyguard


Moreover, with his sunny and kind nature, he didn’t seem to make enemies, and there’s no need to hire


bodyguards.


Natalie couldn’t figure it out for a long time.


Perhaps it wasn’t Ryan?
