The Disguised Bodyguard 18. She wanted it again and again
Alex sat lost in thought on a sofa in the lounge. His gaze was fixed on the photograph he held in his hand. It was a childhood portrait of Luna with his late wife, Chiara. In the photo, Chiara sat in a chair holding little Luna in her lap; they were both wearing white dresses of the same style. Alex’s fingers traced Chiara’s face, a bittersweet smile etched upon his own. In his heart, the man whispered an apology for his failure to protect their only daughter. Alex’s actions did not escape the attention of a middle-aged woman who had recently been watching his every move. Her ambition to make Alex bequeath his business to Emily showed no sign of waning; indeed, it had grown stronger following Luna’s expulsion from the house. Rosaline walked over to Alexander and sat down beside him. Her eyes flashed with anger when she saw the photograph Alex was holding. Rosaline’s lips, painted with blood-red lipstick, pursed slightly. It seemed her presence could not replace the position of Ale
The Disguised Bodyguard 17. Sweet peck
There wasn’t much conversation between Luna and her flatmate following the agreement they’d reached the night before. Not even during the journey to Magnolia Spring Resort. For some reason, Matteo’s silence was getting on Luna’s nerves. She missed the times when he’d paid her attention and gazed at her with such a gentle look. Luna still couldn’t understand what sort of personality Matteo had. His demeanor could change so easily; one moment Matteo would be a man full of care and warmth, as warm as a breath. Yet in an instant he could turn cold, as cold as ice at the poles. The two of them arrived at the forecourt of Magnolia Spring Resort. And surprisingly, Matteo unbuckled Luna’s seatbelt as soon as he turned off the car engine. “You don’t need to do that; I can do it myself,” Luna exclaimed as Matteo suddenly leaned in and unbuckled the seatbelt fastened around her waist. A warm tingle ran through Matteo’s chest when he accidentally brushed against Luna’s full, rounded breasts."
The Disguised Bodyguard 16. The pretend lover
What would you do if someone you loved couldn’t let go of their past? You’re always by their side, trying to be their rock when they’re vulnerable. You try to send them signals of your love, but they can’t even pick up on them and still see you as just a friend! Yes, nothing more than a friend!In such a situation, some people might walk away and look for another woman, remembering that there’s more than just one woman on this earth. But not Matteo. He chose to stay. He knew that Luna needed healing for the wounds of her past. And he wanted to be the one to heal the pain she felt.“What’s wrong with you? Did something I said hurt your feelings?” asked Luna, holding onto Matteo’s arm. Matteo’s eyes looked at Luna’s grip on his arm. He felt that flutter again as the soft surface of the girl’s hand touched him. But in an instant, that flutter turned painful when Matteo realized that Luna only saw him as a friend.The man gave a faint smile and turned to take Luna’s hand in his other han
The Disguised Bodyguard 15. Matteo's jealousy
Luna hurried to the lobby as soon as her shift ended. She had just received a message saying that Matteo was waiting for her in the lobby. She longed to get back to her flat as quickly as possible and weep her heart out over the painful reality she had faced that day. Upon arriving at the lobby of Magnolia Spring Resort, Luna was taken aback by the sight of Matteo sitting on the sofa with a cup of coffee in front of him. Several staff members from the company appeared to be chatting with him in a friendly manner. This, of course, made Luna’s brow furrow deeply. Who exactly was Matteo? Why did everyone at Magnolia Spring Resort seem so deferential towards him? For a moment, Luna stood transfixed, staring at Matteo, who looked so charismatic and commanding as he spoke with the staff seated beside him. Luna then walked slowly towards the group of men and greeted them politely. “Miss Winterbourne has arrived. I’ll take my leave; she must be very tired and want to rest immediately,” sai
The Disguised Bodyguard 14. The diamond ring on Emily’s ring finger
Emily hurried after Adrian, who was chasing after Luna as soon as the partnership meeting had ended. The brunette knew that Adrian wanted to discuss Matteo’s behavior—he had just humiliated Adrian in front of the head of the marketing division at Magnolia Spring Resort. The sound of Luna’s high heels clacking loudly on the floor could be heard. The girl was in a hurry; she couldn’t bear to look at Adrian and Emily for any longer. She felt betrayed by the two people who had once been so close to her. Adrian’s hand reached out and grabbed hers, halting Luna’s steps just as she was about to reach her office, forcing her to turn towards the man who had just seized her wrist. Luna knew exactly who it was. “The meeting is over; is there nothing else we need to discuss, Mr. Adrian?” Luna asked, emphasizing the last word. She lifted her chin defiantly, displaying a very clear gesture of defiance, causing Adrian and Emily to glare at her disapprovingly. “What do you mean? Did you deliberate
The Disguised Bodyguard 13. A respected foreign man
It’s hard to forget all the memories of your first love. But what if that first love—which has long since ended and which you desperately want to forget—keeps popping up before you, tormenting you with the closeness they’ve formed with your sibling? Isn’t that incredibly painful?Luna’s breath caught in her throat the moment she was confronted by Emily and Adrian, who had just entered the meeting room. Emily, who had been linking her arm through Adrian’s, immediately released her grip the moment she realized Luna was there. Was the behavior Emily displayed a sign of guilt for having started a relationship with Luna’s ex-fiancé? Of course not. Emily was merely putting on an act at that moment.Luna’s role as marketing manager meant she was forced to meet clients seeking to collaborate with Magnolia Spring Resort. But it felt incredibly difficult for her to face her ex-fiancé. Should Luna resign from her job? It seemed utterly impossible to find another job, given that Luna’s reputat
The Disguised Bodyguard 10. Dark clouds are still chasing her
"Why did you only just answer my call?" Matteo shouted at the man on the other end of the line. Stefano Morgan—Matteo’s best friend and his right-hand man at Magnolia Spring Resort—frowned upon hearing his friend’s raised voice. "I've only just returned from the board meeting," replied Stefano, t
The Disguised Bodyguard 8. Her injured lip
"I can do it myself," protested Luna as Matteo was about to compress the wound on her lip with a handkerchief that had been soaked in ice water beforehand.Matteo's index finger landed right on Luna's lip, so the girl chose to remain silent. The man brought their faces closer together until there w
The Disguised Bodyguard 7. Your duties as a bodyguard are complete.
The sound of the television filled the silence between Matteo and Luna. Both pairs of eyes stared at the television with bored expressions, but each of them was busy delving into the other's thoughts. Luna, who felt tormented by the silence, finally cleared her throat and spoke up to break the sil
The Disguised Bodyguard 6. Sincere intentions, or a ploy?
Luna's eyes slowly opened as the delicious aroma of cooking teased her sense of smell. Her empty stomach, which had not been filled since morning, protested, causing the girl to grimace as she clutched her stomach. She remembered that her breakfast that morning had consisted of nothing but insults
