All Chapters of The CEO's Bodyguard: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

  Sam's POV Morning came as fast as it could and the night before, I barely had an issue staying under Ryan's roof because despite the fact that we stay together, we never crossed paths. Dinner would have been the issue but thankfully, Ryan made sure I ordered dinner for us before we got home.    This morning, I got his call via the intercom informing me that he was ready to leave for work. I exited my room, ensured I locked the door before heading to the sitting room. It might be Ryan's house but that room is now mine and I can't afford to get caught because someone snitched on me after going through my belongings.  I went to the car garage to get the car and before I got to the front of the building, Ryan was already waiting. I stopped the car in front of him and without waiting for me to get the door for him, he got in himself.  I drove him to work before the rush hour would take its full effect. While he wo

Samantha's POVIn the confined area I've been held hostage at, I paced up and down, throwing my fist into my palm once in a while. Ryan's guards stood around to keep an eye on me and I felt helpless. That feeling got me angry because of all things, I hated the feeling of helplessness. But anyone walking by would think we were just guards waiting on our boss. I had no idea that these guards would be here tonight. Their presence here definitely meant Ryan expected something would happen that needed their attention.I shut out the voices around me while I tried to think about what just happened. I was mystified at the sudden turn of things. Adrian couldn't possibly do that to me. "Even when he knew I despise him, he still loved me enough not to implicate me knowingly." I thought inwardly. My forehead creased when the pitiful look on my uncle's face reflected in my mind. I stopped in my track."Did he possibly know something was gonna happen to me today?"

Samantha's POV With Christmas songs playing on a low pitch, I enjoyed the evening's cool breeze. I tucked in my hair that the wind kept blowing to my face of which I blamed myself for not bringing a hairband with me.  Even though I had a book in my hand that I intended to read, I could barely concentrate because I had a lot on my mind. However, the atmosphere gave me a good escape from the troubles of the mind.  With a low sigh, I dropped the book in my hands on my laps and sat back comfortably with my hands tucked across my chest. I lifted up my legs and rested them on the footstool.   I closed my eyes to have few minutes of rest to relieve my troubled mind of the different thoughts that ran wildly through it, one of which was my relationship with Adrian and my plans with Ryan. But right before I could drift off to my short nap, I heard something that made me open my eyes. The sound was distant and I couldn't make it out. 

Ryan's POV With my hands folded across my chest, I stared at the lady that sat down opposite me. She stared right back at me with a stoic look that I could barely read her expression. When the silence was getting unbearable, I decided to speak first but she beat me to it.  "How have you been, Robin?" She asked.  The way my name rolled off her tongue annoyed the hell out of me because it reminded me of a lot of things.  I mean, c'mon, this was someone I haven't seen for a while now. Five years? Yeah, that should be it. Someone that literally abandoned me.    "Why are you here?" She frowned and pouted before she stood to her feet.  "I went out of the country just for a while. Why should I not come back home?"  I watched her walk round the table before she stopped in front of me.  "Besides, my boyfriend is right here." She flashed a seductive smile, pulled out the chair besid

Ryan's POV   I stepped into the club and walked over to Roman, who waved at me from afar. He was seated at the front bar. My eyes darted everywhere to detect the mask lady, Lia.    "Hey," Roman said and gave me a pat on the back. "It's been a while since you set your foot here, Don't you think?"    "Yeah," I replied absentmindedly, still trying to figure out where Lia was.    "Still in search of the masked queen?" Roman chuckled. "She's over there."    My head tilted in the direction he pointed at and she was indeed seated right there. It was a private area, so little wonder why I didn't notice her immediately I entered.    She has to be some powerful lady for her to always make use of the VIP section..    "We'd make a wonderful combination." I smiled at the thought of that, but the smile got wiped off when I
