The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

"Just ask Mom if you don't believe me. Mom and Dad allow me to go as long as I bring you, Orion, and ten bodyguards," Emily said proudly. "Wait a minute. Why does it have to be ten?" Louis held up one hand. "DadDad wants all the guards to come." "But we will be 13 later. That's not a good number." Emily rolled her eyes. "Since when do you believe in myths?" "That's not just a myth, Emily. Even buildings, planes, all businesses never use that number. Just bring 9 bodyguards." "But Daddy asked for ten and I agreed. How about we call it one woman and twelve men?" "The total is still 13." "I'm with 12 bodyguards?" "Is there any difference? Change the arrangement or I won't go." Emily sighed in resignation. "Okay. I'll talk to Daddy again. Next Friday night, we'll leave." "So we're going for the weekend?" "Isn't that what you want?" Emily answered innocently. Louis snorted in amusement. "I thought you would drag us to leave tomorrow morning." "I'm not that selfi

"Okay, back to the topic. How far has your conversation been going? Judging from your closeness earlier, it looks like Emily doesn't know yet," Louis said as he leaned on the edge of the bed. "What don't I know?" Emily replied with an innocent look. Louis' eyes widened. "So you really don't know? He hasn't told you yet but he dares to kiss you?" Emily became even more confused. "What are you talking about, Louis?" Before Cayden had time to open his mouth, Louis answered, "It wasn't Cayden who had a cardiac arrest, but Princeton. Cayden has been fine since arriving in this city." Emily was stunned. Her mouth opened without a word for a few moments. "You mean, Princeton is still alive? He's not dead?" Cayden couldn't help but nod. "Yes, he's the one who's in a coma all this time. We were afraid that Seth would target him. He certainly couldn't fight back. Because of that, we had to fake my death, while I played his role." Emily sighed in disbelief. Her eyes trembled as h

"Louis, can't you be nice to Cayden? Why have you always been so sentimental towards him?" Emily asked as they got into the car. Louis glanced at her with an annoying look. Orion was ready to hear the twins' debate. But apparently, Louis' answer was unexpected. "He intended to take you from me. Of course I don't like him." Emily froze. A strange feeling tickled her chest. "Why would you think that?" she asked quietly. Louis shrugged. "That thought has been around since he met you. I felt like if you were close to him, you wouldn't want to play with me anymore. You would love him more and be closer to him. You could forget me." Emily was stunned. She didn't know what expression was appropriate to show. She felt annoyed with Louis, and also pitying him. "Louis, we were very small at that time. Now we are adults. Are you still jealous of him?" Louis' lips pursed. "At first I also thought that it was just a child's feelings. But apparently, seeing how you keep looking forw

Amused, Cayden's laughter finally escaped. But then, he disguised it with a sigh. He didn't want to cause any trouble. "Actually, even without clarification from you, I can understand that. If I were in your position, I would not agree with Emily's decision too. Or maybe, I would lock her up in a room so she wouldn't come here. The criminal we're facing is big-time. Catching him could be risky," Cayden said casually. He had changed his gaze to a friendly one. After a brief silence, he continued, "I am grateful that you and Orion are willing to reduce that risk. I am also grateful that you allowed Emily to stay here with me. I will not waste your trust and opportunity. I will protect Emily more than my life." Louis studied Cayden with a doubtful gaze. "That's all? You only intend to protect her from death? There are no other intentions?' Cayden didn't move before blinking. "Of course there is. I also intend to love her the right way, treating her as the most precious girl in the

Seeing Orion open the window, the guards rushed to take off their suits. They wrapped the strange balls which were still hissing, then took turns throwing them out of the window towards the plants on the ground floor. Meanwhile, Louis quickly covered Emily's nose. Holding her in one arm, he guided her out. However, Emily refused to walk. She looked back. Her hand tried to reach out. "Cayden," she called incoherently. On the bed, Cayden had equipped himself with a portable oxygen can and a gun. "Don't worry about me! I'm fine," he pointed at his equipment. "Come out quickly! The anesthetic has already spread!" Seeing that Emily was still reluctant to walk, Orion ordered the guards to check the situation outside. Then, he moved the wheelchair to the side of the bed. "No," Cayden shook his head firmly. "I can take care of myself. You guys go. Hurry! You don't have much time!" Emily's eyes filled with tears seeing how Cayden breathed in oxygen. The can was so small. How lo
