Jack never thought that Elena would miss him so much that she would cry in his arms. His heart felt warm and full. He felt appreciated and wanted.

There had never been anyone who wanted him this much. Even though his wife was wealthy and had assets everywhere, she still depended on him. It was as if he was the one who could fulfill all her needs.

"Why are you crying, hm?"

"I miss you so much," Elena said between tears. "I'm sorry. But I really wanted to be close to you."

His smile widened. Of course he felt happy to hear that sentence. His ego as a man seemed to be pampered.

Rather than getting an independent wife, he would rather have Elena always need him. Although he also let her do whatever she wanted.

"I'm sorry if I left you for too long. Once you're at full term, you can come with me anywhere."

"Really?" his wife asked with widened eyes.

He kissed Elena's forehead gently and lovingly. This was how it felt to be married to someone you loved. Even simple things like this made him

  • Her Hot Bodyguard   90. Out of Plan

    What saved Nathan and Brad when the gunshot rang out was their excellent reflexes.Before the bullet pierced the windshield of Jennifer's car, they saw a gun through the slightly open window and aimed at them.Both were experienced in the field in dealing with various criminals. Both had been intelligence officers although they worked for different agencies and companies."I should have borrowed Jack's car when I got back from Paris," Nathan grumbled as he readied his Glock 17."Agreed. This car looks fancy but it's a piece of junk. It's only been hit by one bullet and it's already cracked," Brad retorted irritably.They were both still ducking their heads as they surveyed the rundown house. Nathan immediately took his hand out of the open window and fired when the muzzle of the gun came back into view.Once, twice, the shot missed. Until the third time, there was a cry of pain."I don't think they're very good shooters," Brad muttered with his eyes on the building.They waited for th

  • Her Hot Bodyguard   89. More Complicated Than It Seems

    "How could you think like that?" Jack asked with a very curious look on his face.Elena shrugged her shoulders. It was nothing new to her."Did you forget that I lived for decades with Matthew Patt? I've also seen a few action movies where there's dark or covert propaganda, complete with intrigue and politics. Sometimes, screenwriters or authors deliberately include true stories with a specific purpose, but people will think that it's all fiction.""Wow! You really deserve to be the leader of Greenlake. I wouldn't be surprised if Alan is actually just your pawn, while you are the controller behind the scenes," her husband exclaimed in amazement.She let out a long sigh. "I didn't really want this life. Being a tycoon is not as glamorous as it seems. If I could choose, I'd rather be a simple person who never has to deal with such things.""You're right. But this is our life. Many enemies lurk, and we must remain vigilant. There is something to cover up with these cases. You know, Matth

    Elena was asleep when her cell phone rang repeatedly. Even though her eyes felt very heavy, she forced herself to reach for it.Who knew it was from her husband. She didn't want to be ignorant of such a small matter."Hello?"[Miss Elena, there is someone snooping around the restaurant. It's been since a week ago.]"Hmm?"Elena's brow furrowed, trying to digest what the caller was saying. She pulled the phone away from her ear and looked at the small clock on the top screen. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. Chad's name was displayed on the screen."It's still 2 pm. Who stakes out a restaurant during the day?" She replied before yawning.Her body really felt tired for no reason, even though she hadn't done anything all day except walk in the park near the apartment with Freya and Altan.[What? It's 3 am, Miss Elena. Someone dressed all in black was sneaking around and peeking inside the restaurant. For God's sake! What is it?]The young man's panicked voice brought Elena's consciou

    "Get that terrorist! She threatened me!" Shawn shouted, pointing at Jennifer.Brad quickly grabbed Jennifer's hand and pushed her into the car, while Nathan got into the driver's side and rushed Jennifer's car away from the agency building.Several people chased after them, but Nathan skillfully overtook the cars in front of him and hid behind a row of other vehicles."Is it clean?" Nathan asked as he looked in the rearview mirror."It is," Brad replied, then turned to a terrified Jennifer. "Are you okay?""This has been a nightmare," Jennifer rambled. "Why did everything get so messed up?"The woman wiped her face with a tissue although it didn't really help. The fishy smell of the eggs really made their stomach turn.Suddenly, Jennifer's cell phone rang. Her eyes widened. Her index finger hurriedly swiped the screen and put the phone to her ear."Dad, where are you? I heard that you ran away to Florida. How did you get caught?" Jennifer asked with a worried look on her face.Complet

  • Her Hot Bodyguard   85. Getting Fired

    [Big News! Jennifer Dunn's last name is Freeman? Is it the same as Alex Harris Freeman who is wanted for being a terrorist and the brains behind many bombings in America?"]Shawn threw the newspaper at Jennifer, hitting her in the head."Read it! Read it, you stupid bitch!" Shawn shouted with a red face.Brad feigned panic by grabbing the newspaper and reading the headline with Jennifer's face and Alex Harris, Jennifer's biological father, plastered all over it."Alex Harris was a security guard at a supermarket. This man turned out to be a terrorist wanted by the FBI. Now, he is fleeing to Florida after being caught trying to bomb a mosque. This man is allegedly the biological father of up-and-coming actress Jennifer Dunn."He turned to Jennifer with bulging eyes and gaping mouth. "What is this? Your father is a terrorist? So, he's the one who's been behind the bombings that have been disturbing the public?""No! That's not true! I don't know this man!" Jennifer snapped.Shawn's hand
