GUARDED HEAT CHAPTER 23 - GUNNER
“Finally!” Layland exclaimed when I informed him that we can now go home after staying at the hospital overnight.“Do you need help?” I asked him as he was trying to get out of the bed.“I’m fine,” he easily responded, but still ended up wincing the moment he tried to sit down.I shook my head and sighed. “There is nothing wrong in admitting that you’re in pain, you know?” I told him as I made my way to assist him in getting out of the bed.He pouted. “I am not in so much pain for me to be asking for help from you,” he said, but did nothing to stop me from helping him.I just shook my head again and said nothing more. This brat hates losing to me, so he surely won’t stop once I respond to him.“You’re ready?” I asked instead.“Oh, I’m ready as hell. I can’t wait to get out of this hospital.”I held the door open for him. “You’re talking as if you have been staying here for weeks. May I remind you that it’s not even twenty-four hours yet since you got confined, and now you’re getting o

"Is Annie on her way?" Layland asked me after I sat down—this time I chose to sit on the three-seater sofa and not on the stool anymore. I just came back from the cafeteria and just had my dinner. It looks like he's already done having his dinner as well since the food tray couldn't be seen anymore."Yep. She said she'll be here in not less than twenty minutes," I answered him. "She said Raul is driving her."Raul is their family's personal driver, while Annie is one of the Floros's housekeepers, who is also the first and their family's oldest housemaid. And based on my observation, it seems that Layland is actually quite close to her. I've seen them more than a few times having conversations and just having a good time together. If I didn't know anything, I would think that Annie is actually Layland's mother."Raul hates you, you know?" Layland said. "He said he hates you for taking away his job."I shook my head. Yes, I know the guy hates me. I've caught him too many times giving me
GUARDED HEAT CHAPTER 21 - LAYLAND
"Good!" Gunner exclaimed with a huge grin on his face. "Then I'll start asking now."I did not respond to him and just rolled my eyes instead, which he saw but completely ignored. I, then, averted my gaze from him and went back to staring at the white wall."Jill, Rafael, and Louis," he started, which made my ears perk. How the hell did he know those names?As if he sees through me, he answered my questions without me even needing to voice them. "I told you. Zach has filled me in with some of the details.""That traitor," I muttered through gritted teeth after remembering that Gunner actually had already said that.That Zach. I am so going to kick his balls once I see him again."Don't get mad at him. He was only worrying about you. I still dislike that arrogant prick, but I can tell that he cares about you, so cut him some slack," Gunner said, acting as if he had read my mind again."That'll be up to me," I responded in an irritated tone.Gunner just shook his head and did not respon

"Do you need water?" was the first question Gunner had asked me after he finally got over being surprised.I only nodded as a response to his question. After knowing my answer, he put his phone in the pocket of his jeans, then fully turned to face me."Then, excuse me," he said before helping me to sit down, and God, I could tell that the veins in my neck were bulging as I held back the scream that wanted to get out of my mouth while Gunner was helping me.Thankfully, he was able to make me sit right away, immediately cutting the intense pain I was feeling.I wanted to lean my back on the wall, but knowing that it would only cause me tremendous pain, I abandoned that idea.After making sure that I was fully seated, Gunner then grabbed the bottle of water that was on the bedside table as if someone had already prepared it for me.I wonder who bought it. Could it be Gunner? Well, since he's the only one in the room, then it's probably really him.Gunner opened the bottle and sat beside
GUARDED HEAT CHAPTER 19 - GUNNER
Zach did not stay too long at the hospital because he had to get back to his classes, leaving me alone with the still-asleep Layland.And since I am already alone, I figured it was the best time for me to finally call Layland's parents and let them know of their son's situation. I don't know what time it is in the US right now, but I cannot wait any longer. Besides, they were already complaining to my brother about me not giving them a call when they could just give me a call themselves, but their pride and arrogance were too high for that, so they might actually appreciate me a little for this...or maybe not, considering it took me a while before finally calling them, and when I finally called, I had to give them bad news.It must have been already late in the States because my call hasn't been answered even after a couple of rings. How long is the time difference anyway between the US and the..."Hello?"Finally, they answered. And it's a voice of a man. Well, the number given to me
GUARDED HEAT CHAPTER 18 - GUNNER
“What the fuck happened?” I asked in shock upon seeing even more clearly how fucked up Layland's face was. His face and his lips were filled with cuts, and it was starting to swell, while his nose was slightly crooked and was bleeding. His eyes were also bloodshot.From his face, my gaze went down to his body. His clothes were dirty, a total mess, which was enough for me to know that his body underneath his clothes was surely just as fucked up as his face.My eyes went back to Layland’s face. “Are you okay?” But Layland was going out of it already, so he couldn’t answer my question anymore, which led me to turn my attention to Zach instead. But before I could even ask him, he already beat me to it.“I’ll answer all your questions later. For now, we need to take him home and be out of their nosy assholes’ sights.”I frowned. “What do you mean we’re taking him home? We are taking him to a hospital!”“Layland doesn’t want to—”“I don’t fucking care about what he wants. We are bringing hi
