Arielle woke up a bit late that day. The sun was already high when she got up from bed. She quickly took a shower and then went out to go down to the kitchen and see what food Emma was cooking. She was feeling a bit hungry because she didn't eat much last night.Her disappointment and regret for not getting Gun as her driver-bodyguard still linger until now. She didn't want to hire someone else especially since she didn't know them yet. She didn't trust anyone she might get to protect her. They might just be blinded by the money if Claire and Tyron offer them a large amount, and instead of protecting her, they might be the ones to kill her.Although she didn't know Gun very well, she had a strong feeling that he could protect her from danger. She also had a strong feeling that Tyron couldn't bribe him, especially since their encounter didn't go well.She smiled when she smelled the delicious aroma of garlic frying in oil that Emma was cooking while walking down the stairs. Her smile w

Arielle felt a surge of joy upon hearing Gun's words to the people inside the room. He said that he was her bodyguard. Does this mean that he agrees to be her bodyguard? What about the beautiful woman who was with him? Did she allow him to quit his job? It seems that woman is not the type to just let someone like Gun go easily. She really wants to hear an answer to those questions in her mind but she knows this is not the right time for it. She still needs to explain to Tyron about Gun because she is sure he will not allow Gun to be her bodyguard. After all, it will ruin his plans against me."What is this, Arielle? Why does this man claim to be your bodyguard? When did you get a bodyguard and why don't I know about this?" Tyron angrily questioned her."Calm down, Tyron. I hired him because I need a bodyguard who can protect me all the time." She didn't use her endearment for Tyron because for some reason she didn't want Gun to hear her calling her boyfriend that way."Why indeed, Ar

"What do you mean, Arielle? Is your boyfriend trying to kill you? Is he the one who poisoned you and made you end up in the hospital?" Gun asked, furrowing his brows.The truth was she didn't mean for Gun to hear the name she mentioned. She thought she only answered his question in her mind, but apparently not."Just forget what I said, Gun," she quickly said to him. Though she trusted him, she wasn't ready to tell him about Tyron and Claire."Forget it? After you've left me hanging in curiosity, you're going to tell me to forget what you said—"He raised his voice slightly, so she hurriedly covered his mouth with her hand to prevent him from speaking. She was worried that her two maids might hear his loud voice. She was sure that her maids would wonder if they were quarreling once they heard his loud voice."Lower your voice," she whispered, her one hand remained covering his mouth. She glanced worriedly towards the kitchen, checking for any indication of someone nearby.She breathed

"Are you not going to follow Gun, Ma'am Arielle? What if he never comes back? No one will save you if someone tries to harm you again," Emma asked her worriedly while they were sitting in the living room.She turned to her maid and shook her head. "No, Emma. Maybe he's not the right person to be my driver-bodyguard."Gun doesn't seem like a bodyguard. His actions and way of speaking don't fit the role of a bodyguard. Well, he's not really a bodyguard but just a driver. But even being a driver doesn't suit him either.Maybe Gun attended college but was not able to finish his studies. And maybe he was just forced to become the driver of that woman because she was his girlfriend and maybe the salary was too high."Maybe you should ask Sir Tyron's help in finding a bodyguard, Ma'am Arielle?" Emma suggested, which she immediately responded to with a strong refusal. If her bodyguard is from Tyron, she is sure that she won't last a week and she will become a cold corpse.Emma didn't say anyt

Arielle tries hard to remove the pillow covering her face, but no matter what she does, she can't seem to take it off. The person covering her face was much stronger compared to her strength. Almost unable to breathe, she panics excessively but still doesn't lose hope. God has given her a second chance at life, so she won't waste it.She stretches out her hands and searches for something nearby that she can use against the person trying to kill her. She remembers that the small table where her lampshade is placed is close to her pillow, and its holder is made of metal. She reaches for it with all her might, and finally, when she gets hold of the lampshade, she forcefully swings the metal holder at the person covering her face.Since she couldn't see his head, she just hit him anywhere on his body. The important thing is that she hits him so he would let go of the pillow. It seems like she hurt that person because the pressure of the pillow on her face suddenly loosened.She took advan
