THE BODYGUARD WHO TAMED THE TRILLIONAIRE CEO のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Caden's PovEven till the next morning, Asher will never let Belladonna touch him. Yeah, I named the little cat, Belladonna — dark and ethereally beautiful but deadly as fuck.The moment Giovanna brought her into the living room, she jumped from her arms and scurried towards the sofa.Asher, who'd been sitting on the couch nearby, jumped from his set. “I thought I told you to get this thing away from me.” I threw my head back and laughed. “It's a cat not the devil.” “Same thing!” He grumbled, peeking from behind the couch he'd taken shelter from.I never knew Asher had this adorable side to him. It's freaking cute.Belladonna or Bella for short, darts towards him and he jumps behind me.“Yo, who's protecting whom here?” Frisbee who'd just walked in laughed.“I guess I'm Asher's bodyguard now.” I laughed.I heard him snort behind me before letting go. Suddenly, he'd taken his warmth with him.“It’s hilarious. Who knew the great Asher Donovan would be terrified of a tiny cat?” Frisbee

Caden's PovI gulped the ball in my drying throat.Why the heck does Asher have the ability to ground me? For a second, I almost spilled everything Gus told me.I dragged my hand through my hair as Bella purred on my lap, Gus’s words replaying in my head. “It hasn't been 5 years and the company's already crumbling.” He'd chuckle.“No, it's not,” I fisted my hands at my sides. “And what the fuck are you doing here?”“Is it now a crime to visit my cousin and his husband?” He laughed. “I can't believe grandpa wrote that stuff in his will. It's hilarious.” “Fuck off!”“No, I won't,” he strode towards me and grabbed my jaw. “You're nothing but a little shit who was given a company too big to handle.”“Booker Legacy Group will thrive under me!” I gritted my teeth.“Revive it first. I heard Eagle's Eye is losing ground and no one is purchasing the gadget.” He mused.“I'll find a way around it. I always do.”“Doubtful.”“Is that what you think?” “Why the heck not?” Gus shrugged. “A murdere

Caden's PovIf fate had a physical form, I would slap her so hard she would bleed. Because why the hell did she bring Asher into my life if he was going to fuck it up? Why did she make me attracted to that motherfucker? Why did she even let grandpa die? If he were alive, I'd tell him I hate Asher and he'd replace him with someone else.God, this is the worst.I dragged my hand through my hair and tried not to sigh as my General Manager made a slide presentation. The charts were not looking good. Even Nessa's company topped us in the ranks. If we don't up our game anytime soon, the company'll plummet. Hard.Once the presentation was over, it was my turn to run the show. Gatsby passed me the briefcase and I placed it on the conference table. I drummed my fingers on the smooth surface and began. “Everyone hates us.”The shareholders and reporters in the room shared confused looks before focusing on me. “Do you know why everyone hates us?” I asked. When no one answered, I patted the br

Caden's Pov “What do you mean you want a new bodyguard?” Gastby stared at me as if I grew another head.“I hate Asher and I want him gone. Period.” I said, popping a tomato into my mouth.Gastby crossed her arms and leveled me with a reproving stare. “What type of ridiculous reason is that?”“It's not a ridiculous reason. I hate his guts and I want him gone. Maybe if Giovanna becomes my new personal bodyguard, I wouldn't mind marrying her. She's so sweet like Bella.”“Don't compare Giovanna to your cat,” Gatsby poured me a wine and some for herself. “And second of all, why now? You've already announced your marriage to him.”"A lot of couples break up before their weddings. We'll just be another number.” I shrug, reaching for my wine and sipping it.“I don't think it'll work like that,” Gatsby laughed. “You have to talk to him first.” “It's better we don't speak at all,” I added with a sigh. “Have you met him? He's not exactly a great conversationalist.”“God forbid we improve his c

Caden's PovI woke up with a headache the size of Jupiter.“Jesus.” I winced as I palmed my forehead.“That's the consequence that comes with drinking too much wine on a Monday night.” A familiar scent — leather and sandalwood — wrapped around me like a cloak. I knew who it was before opening my eyes.“Rise and shine, little prince.” Asher's hand cupped my face My things squeezed involuntarily. He had called me that over and over last night while he fucked me. But the way I pulled his hair and moaned his name while he fisted my cock did not make me feel like a prince at all. I closed my eyes to drift into that memory of us but something wet slicked my jaw. I threw my eyes open and found Bella purring at me. I reached out a hand and stroked her hair. “You want me to get out of bed, don't you?”Asher grinned. “That's my secret weapon.” “You know, there are other ways to get me out of bed in the morning.” I grinned, still stroking Bella's hair.“Don't be naughty, Caden. Get out of b
