Getting a Technology System in Modern Day



Eden's press conference did nothing other than completely disrupt many of the Morgan's plans, forcing them to spend several hours which were spent on meetings, trying to come up with new strategies to make sure they were able to achieve the desired outcome.

They didn't have an option of backing down, since that would mean two things that they couldn't swallow no matter what. 

First, their pride would be hurt greatly if they were to lose to a country which they considered primitive, especially after having several government institutions acting as their helpers. 

Second, the amount of investments they had made in Eden, even putting their other developing projects on hold so that they could direct the use of their technology department to hack the shit out of Eden's government infrastructure to divert their attention, giving Esparia the opportunity to kick their asses. Unfortunately, their efforts backfired, making them suffer a significant up defeat as if the other side had already expected of their plan, leading them to look for a suspect within their own ranks.

Another reason they couldn't back out no matter what was…..

"So you are saying that it might be the Rothschilds who tipped them from behind and gave the bomb after buying it by using their contacts?" George grumbled after hearing the report from the representative.

Right now, there were just three people inside his father's workroom, George himself, his father and the representative who had been in Esparia a day ago.

"Yes, we also suspect that their cooperation goes even further than simply that, Rina, the heir candidate, after her visit to Israel had personally visited Eden secretly," answered the representative, who had returned to America to report on what was happening first hand, not trusting any communication infrastructure of Esparia.

After a brief pause, he continued with his briefing "It is speculated that she had been carrying a cargo containing something radioactive, based on its shielding, which was not present with her during her return to America"

"By the way, how did you know about her visit, when we failed to track her during her visit?" asked George, curious about the validity of the intel.

"I accidentally stumbled upon her image among the intel files which were provided to me by Esparia, they were collected by one of Esparia's spies in Eden. At that moment this one had been observing the people going in and out of the presidential palace and when his attention was attracted to a convoy that was entering the presidential palace without being searched at the door, the spy tagged it, informing his fellow spies in the country to keep an eye on it. With some trouble, they were able to manage to capture one of her pictures while she had got off to board a boat that was heading to the island."

The representative took a pause trying to see if the two in front of him had any thoughts.

After hearing no reply, he continued while asking, "What can they even do with radioactive materials in that underdevelop..." 

However, George stopped him mid-sentence as he remembered something about Eden that had created quite the buzz a few months ago.

"The Brown Clouds!"

George exclaimed, similar to a scientist who had experienced a eureka moment before he continued, saying, "They must be doing something with what the cargo she had brought to them during her visit," he muttered as his mind simply connected the dots after receiving the new information.

"Yes, this is also what we suspect it to be as well since Esparia's spies in Eden have failed to gain access to that Island too. Everyone getting closer to it, even the port that has boats heading to the island will need heavy credentials. There is also a report that last week, more than forty thousand soldiers were sent there to what we suspect being the expedite of the construction of whatever they are building there," answered the representative.

"What sort of construction would need so many people and most importantly, with all of them being soldiers to expedite it? In order to keep the project a secret? Are they doing something like the Manhattan project?" asked Geroge, being the one who asked the question while his father remained quiet, listening to the answers as the representative provided them.

"You are not too far from our speculations. We suspect it to be an enrichment facility, but everything about that island is nothing but pure speculation. We don't have any or even a few concrete rumors about what might really be going on at that piece of land much less any information to base our assumptions on what they might be doing there, but it should be important enough for them to warrant for sending their heir candidate there secretly, with minimum security to avoid attracting any attention," answered the representative while explaining.

"Look like the Rothchilds are already busy doing some preparations for round two and it has to do something or the other with that island," Aubrey chimed in, voicing his opinion for the first time throughout this entire meeting, before he shortly ordered, "Tell Kassim to contact the Secretary of Defense and have him provide us the intel of what the fuck is happening under those clouds by the end of this week." His words clearly indicated that he had come to a decision based on the back and forth of words that had taken place between his favorite son and the representative.

"Sir, Kassim is still receiving his punishment for delaying our attack on the Rothschilds, does this mean that he has been forgiven and can return to duty?" Inquired the representative in a tone that had a hint of jealousy within, subtle enough for George to not pick it up but obvious enough for Aubrey to understand what the man was implying.

"No, this will act as Kassim's last chance to redeem himself, if not, he will really hope that he had never known us before," answered Aubrey, acting as if he didn't see the man's intention since he didn't care at all about the rivalry amongst the servants as long as they accomplished the tasks given handed over to them and if this increase in competition among them ended up hurting their capabilities of accomplishing the tasks given to them, he would just get rid of them and their replacements will be more than willing do it in their stead.

"I will inform him, sir," the representative answered, portraying a respective posture while waiting to see if there were any other instructions from him.

Aubrey on the other hand ignored him and turned to his son before asking, "Do you think that the Esparians can win in a rematch against Eden's army if we were to provide a similar support compared to the last time?"

George confidently replied, "They would have no chance at all if the Rothschilds are really using that country as a ground base for whatever attack they are planning, then they must have done a massive amount of investment in the country's security. Which is rather surprising since we didn't have any indication of anything as such happening at all, meaning that they are taking whatever is happening there very seriously."

"Good, so what do you think we should do? Give up on them or should we support them even more?" Aubrey asked, like always, testing his son even more after being satisfied by his response.

"I think it is time we send our fighting forces to stretch their muscles since Afghanistan is not making them stretch themselves very well due to the US army dealing with the insurgent groups by bombing the shit out of them," Aubrey suggested, immediately eliciting a smile from Aubrey who was feeling happy, thanks to his favorite son who continuously provided the answers he was expecting from a son who he thought was a perfect candidate for the role of inheriting his position after him.

With the words now out of his son's mouth, these words soon reached the representative's ear who at once knew what George clearly meant.

Their (Private Military Contractors "Mercenary") PMC's would be making their moves very soon as they start heading to Esparia. 

Among them were many prominent PMC's, such as;

Academi (formerly known as Blackwater): A private military company that provides security, training, and logistics services for the family.

DynCorp International: A company which offers services, including- aviation support, intelligence, security, and logistics for the family.

G4S: Although based in the United Kingdom, provides security and risk management services worldwide for the family. 

And many more that were about to head to and be stationed in Esparia, acting as their counter card against the Rothschilds, or so they thought.
