Semua Bab In Love With My Bodyguard : Bab 111 - Bab 120

*Tessa*The next morning was like one I didn't expect. Marin wakes me up earlier than I needed to be up. “We need to go and eat in the dining room. Food is ready. You've not brushed your teeth.” It feels like a movie where things are to go a certain way, and the family eats together, and all of that. I didn't say anything about it. I just force myself up from the bed and immediately follow her to the bathroom so we can brush our teeth. Her room is large enough to accommodate both of us, and so is her bathroom.I would say as spacious as mine is, hers is a little more spacious than mine.She has a rectangular-shaped large mirror also in her bathroom, where we stood in front of while we were brushing.“My hair is really a mess today. It's been a long time since I went to the saloon.” I say as I put Marin's paste on my toothbrush.“I would have said we should go together, but we have many things to do for us to be bothered about how messy our hair looks. Moreover, I wonder what part

*Tessa*Several thoughts run through my mind as I watch Marin focus completely on my phone as she types in the breakup message to Wes. I accept that I've now gotten to the point where whatever I do has consequences, and I think I'm learning them the hard way.“I've sent it and you don't have to see it now. I promise you, I was gentle with him, but I might have closed all other doors to you both getting back together. You don't have anything to worry about.” Marin says to me, smiling as she speaks. I know she's been waiting for this day to come, but because it's coming like this, she can't fully rejoice over the breakup.“I guess this is what's happening then. But you know it's a little odd that I'm breaking up with Wes on the same day I'm going to find out if Knox has been lying to me or not. I feel like so many things are not in place, and I really fear that things will never go back to normal.” Many things race through my mind, but one thing certainly bothers me more, and it's th

*Knox* Tessa walks into the room looking totally defeated by the world. I don't know what's going on in her mind, and I do not even know where to start my discussions with her. One thing I'm sure about is that I miss her presence, and I feel bad that I didn't show her how much I love her because of how occupied I was with ensuring I expose Marcus as soon as I can and make sure all his strategies to win the election will go in vain. I stand still by the door, glaring at me. I did not want to rush with my approach to her because I don't know the state she's in and I don't want her to get really mad at me for trying to touch her. The moment I see the tears fall from her eyes, I know it's a done deal, and I really need to apologize to her. “Tessa, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I neglected you. I'm sorry I didn't speak to you the right way, and I let you go out there like you have to search for love outside for you to find it.” I walk over to her and try to hug her. She pushes me off

*Tessa*“I don't want to speak with anyone today. Tell him I said so.” I turn away from facing the door because I know Knox can let himself into my room and force me to take the call. I wonder why he isn't even bothered by the fact that I could tell Marcus all that is going on, and things will begin to nosedive from there. Knox remains quiet for a while. I look over to the other side of the bed and grab my iPad.I open it to find several messages from Marin as she writes out how eager she is to find out the progress of my discussion with Marcus. “The witch was telling the truth.” I start responding because I know Marin, and she will be waiting anxiously for my response. “Knox is really who we did not think he was, and he has worked with Marcus before. That lady told the truth. I don't even know how to look him in the face. I feel so betrayed, and I just don't know how to help myself stop feeling sorry for how naive I have been. It's so hard to love him more.”I send the message an

*Knox*I drive slowly into Marcus's apartment. Several thoughts run through my mind as I park the car and Tessa rushes out of the car faster than I could get the chance to speak with her about what she wants to discuss with Marcus. I don't feel good about how irrational she's acting, and I know she will get me into a lot of trouble. I rush out of the car as well and head after her before she gets to the door. “Tessa, don't do this. I've been considering both of us all along with my plans. That's why it's taken me this long to get here. I can't have you messing all this up.” I look at her in the eyes, hoping I will find a little more patience in her eyes, but there's nothing of such seen in hers.“I can't help either of you. I've constantly tried to persuade you two, and it's obvious neither of you plans to listen to me. That's it! I'm not going to sit back and watch you both destroy my life.” Tessa snaps. I haven't seen her so angry as she pushes Marcus's door open and lets herself
