View More"Arielle!!!" Gun shouted loudly as he ran towards the woman. He likes to hug her tightly but it comes to his mind that it will only waste the time of saving her. So when he got close to her, he immediately picked her up and took her to his car. He almost flew his car just to reach the nearest hospital. His car honked nonstop, disturbing the other motorist. But he doesn't care at all. What he wants is to make a way for his car to get past and quickly arrive at the hospital.The hospital was only ten minutes away from the incident and he drove his car faster than normal speed so he arrived almost early than ten minutes. Upon arrival at the hospital, he was immediately greeted by the doctors when they saw Arielle's condition and she was rushed to the emergency room.While Arielle was in the emergency room, Gun fervently prayed to God to save Arielle's life from danger. Though he believes in God he seldom prays and asks anything from Him. But this time, he sincerely prayed for Arielle's s
Arielle forced herself to endure the loneliness, even though she was sad being alone. Despite her fear that someone might be waiting outside her room to kill her, she bravely faced her fears.She called Kim to see if she could accompany her to her house, but Kim was in a distant province conducting a medical mission while her friend Bret was in the State and accompanying his grandpa who went back home after visiting him. She had no one else to call, which only made her feel more saddened.Unable to sleep, she went out to the terrace to get some fresh air and try to fall asleep. She frowned when she saw the familiar car parked near the gate of her house. She became anxious as she remembered seeing the same car parked next to hers earlier when she went to the cell phone repair shop.Surely the person in that car is watching her and just waiting for the opportunity to enter her house to kill her. Out of fear, she quickly returned to her room and covered herself with a blanket."Has your
"I'm sorry, but I didn't get the cellphone from that woman's house, Boss," apologized the man who was none other than the one who broke into Arielle's house."A simple task, but you couldn't do it!" angrily shouted the man sitting in the wheelchair. He is the man who ordered the killing of the couple who witnessed the accident involving Arielle's parents. And the identity of this man is mysterious."I'm sorry, Boss. I failed to get the cellphone, but I won't fail to kill her," he promised."Make sure this time you don't fail, because if you mess up again, I'll be the one to kill you. Understood?""Yes, Boss!" the man quickly replied before walking out of the room unsteadily. He was in pain because he was hit by the baseball Arielle was holding and fell down the stairs.As one of his men left, the man sitting in the wheelchair clenched his fists tightly. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. He took advantage of the fact that someone else wanted to kill Arielle so t
Arielle woke up in her room, lying on her bed. Bret and Kim were sitting beside her, their faces full of worry. Even her two maids were in her room, also worried about her."Are you okay now?" Bret asked worriedly, holding her hand and squeezing it gently."What happened to you?" Kim asked her too.Instead of answering their questions, she started crying softly. Her chest hurt, accompanied by guilt. It was because of her that the Cabagan couple died. If only she hadn't gone to them and asked about the accident involving her parents, they would still be alive and living peacefully in their place. It's all her fault.They just let her cry and let out whatever was weighing on her chest. She cried silently for a few minutes. Her crying turned into sobs until she finally stopped. When she had calmed down, Bret gave her a glass of cold water that Emma had brought from the kitchen. Her chest felt relieved after drinking the cold water."Now that you're okay, maybe you can tell us what happen
"You're drinking again, Gun. What's the problem now?" Jacob asked as he entered Gun's house and saw him drinking alcohol while sitting in the living room.His heart was heavy because he found out that Arielle and Bret were already in a relationship. He didn't know what she saw in that man, as he didn't think he could defend her. Aside from his good looks he seems to be gay, he thinks that there's nothing lovable with him. He didn't even fight back when he punched him last night if he was a real man."Arielle's friend Bret is her boyfriend now. I saw them at the restaurant where Amanda and I ate last night. I heard Bret introducing her to his grandfather," he told Jacob after taking a deep breath to ease the tightness in his chest.Jacob also took a deep breath and approached him. "Give up on her, Gun. There are many other women out there. Arielle is not the only woman, so I'm sure you'll fall in love with a better woman. Or it would be much better if you just made Amanda your girlfrie
"I'm really sorry for what Gun did to you. I didn't expect him to do this," Arielle apologized to her friend as she applied an icepack to his jaw, which had quickly developed a bruise."How am I going to explain this big bruise on my jaw to my grandpa? Your boyfriend was scared to be jealous, Arielle. He just started punching without warning. And his punch was so strong, my gosh! I think my jaw is dislocated. Is he a boxer?" he said to her, crying.Bret was thinking that the reason Gun punched him was because he was jealous of him, but he was mistaken. Gun had told him why he punched him, but Bret probably didn't notice or hear it because he was so shocked by what his former bodyguard had done.'Tell your grandpa that the reason you have a bruise on your face is because you got into a fight. You saw a woman being disrespected and you couldn't hold yourself back from defending her. You will not only become a hero, and a gentleman in your grandpa's eyes, he will also see you as a real m
Arielle's body was trembling as she sat inside Gun's car. She couldn't refuse when he insisted that she go with him inside his car. She didn't even know if it was his new boss' car or his girlfriend's car.She was alone inside the vehicle as Gun briefly stepped out. She didn't ask where he was going. She just obediently followed him. After more than five minutes, Gun returned inside the car, carrying a small paper bag with the logo of a famous drug store."Here. Drink this to calm yourself and stop your body from trembling. You look terrified." He handed her a small, cold bottle of water.She felt very thirsty, so she finished the contents of the bottled water. Gun was right. She did feel a bit calmer and her chest felt more relaxed."T-Thank you," she said in a soft voice. She felt embarrassed because she had fired him as her bodyguard, and now he was the one helping her.Instead of speaking, Gun just stared intently at her, then without a word, grabbed her reddened arm from Tyron's
More than five minutes had passed before Tyron and Claire returned to their seats together. When they came back, they were both smiling as if nothing had happened. Arielle secretly frowned, knowing that they were just holding back their anger towards her.The liveliness returned to their table, and they continued their conversation."Arielle, I have a question for you," Lilac asked her. It seems she's not done trying to embarrass her."Of course, you can ask me anything that you want to know," Arielle replied with a smile. Maybe Lilac thought she would back down from her questions.Lilac smiled at her as if making sure she would be embarrassed by her question this time."I heard that you hired a bodyguard to protect you and fell in love with him. Aren't there any other men around you and you even went after a lowly bodyguard?"Her gaze at Lilac suddenly sharpened. She didn't care if her former classmates saw her angry look at the woman. She could insult her, but she wouldn't allow her
Arielle felt a sense of embarrassment as her former classmates examined her looks from head to foot. They really couldn't believe the big transformation they saw in her. She felt like she was so ugly back then."Arielle Simpson? Is that really you?" Finally, one of her classmates broke the awkward stares of her classmates at her. This person stood up and approached her to guide her to the vacant seat across Claire's seat."Who else could it be? There's only one Arielle Simpson who was your classmate back in senior high," she replied with a smile to Billy, who had asked the question. She just went with a smile to deal with the feeling of shyness she was experiencing.She took a deep breath and tried to act casual. She didn't want Claire to notice that she was nervous, and she also wanted to be confident in front of their classmates, especially those who used to bully her for being nerdy because of her out-of-this-world taste of fashion."I can't believe you're the nerd we used to have
