All Chapters of In Love With My Bodyguard : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

*Tessa*“If you wish to take anything else from me, take this. He will surely be fine. If they've been in there for that long, he will be fine. He must be a fighter.” Melissa assures.“He is more than a fighter. He's literally a god.” I say, and we both laugh. “Thank you for your help,” I add and walk over to the chair to lie, waiting for them to be done.Melissa stands for a while before she walks away. I didn't know if we were supposed to share contacts or IG accounts or something. I really didn't know how those things work. I just thought if she wants to keep friends with me, she would have said so, so probably I was one of the strangers who randomly benefited from her kind gestures. I should have done better than that, and I knew it.I change position as I see the nurse walk out of the theatre. I didn't know if I should approach her or not, but I could see that she was busy and in a hurry, so I remained still. A strong urge to just go inside the theatre, get the instruments from

*Tessa*The glaring look on her face as she takes just one step into the room and gazes around the room till her eyes fall on Knox. I didn't know Kara had mean looks. We must have belittled that we saw her beautiful looks from afar and weren't close enough to see her facially. I stand up and walk up to meet with her. “You're Kara, right?” I stretch my arm over to her for a handshake before adding, “I'm Tessa. Kara is my bodyguard.”She dissed me like she didn't hear what I had said to her, and she walked past me. Marin sits still, and we both watch her as she keeps a stern look and walks over to Knox, who is still unconscious on the bed.“I told you severally that you can't trust these people, but you insist. Look where it has gotten you.” She says, ignoring the fact that Marin and I could hear her. She places her hand on his chest afterwards.I don't know why, but it's annoying watching her act all interested in Knox, like they are both a thing.Marin looks at me, and our eyes mee

*Knox*I wonder why Kara is so pissed off with me. I did not think I had done anything more to piss her off, and I tried to think of all that had happened while we were on our way here. “What's all this?” I ask her. “What's what? Don't you see? You make yourself so weak because of those girls! How do you even do things like this without thinking?” The pain in her voice echoes loudly, and her eyes grow red. “I knew we would lose you from when you decided to prioritise her safety too much, saying it's your one job. Fuck the job!”“Calm! They might be able to hear.” Marin is standing a little ahead of us, and with how Kara was yelling at me, she may get a hint of what she's yelling about.“You're asking me to calm down? You took four bullets for the sister of our enemy? The fuck you think you're doing?”“I didn't know I was hit. It wasn't their fault at all.”“Of course, it's yours. You're the one who owns a life that you don't prioritize. Do you know how I even got to know that you'r

*Tessa*I can't tell if it's intentional or if Knox is just trying his best to irritate me. “Pftt… I don't have a business guarding him. He's not my responsibility, so I'm not bothered. But if he's around at a time like this, you'd also be in jeopardy because I know you'd want to go out with him, and there's a limit to how I can control his movement.” Knox didn't even look at me in the face while he spoke. His head keeps resting on the couch with his eyes closed.“Thank goodness you know you're not responsible for him. All I'm telling you is that Dave is coming this week and I'm more than excited to have him here, whether it pleases you or not.” I say, walking back up the stairs. I thought the news was going to make the air feel better, but it's clear Knox doesn't find joy in what I find joy in. Marin runs after me, saying, “Tess, Tess…” She stops me as I get to the door of my room, using her hand to pull me back just before I can open the door. “What!” I snap at her.I take in a

*Tessa*“I heard about the shooting that went on in your school, and I get it, you have every right to be mad at me. But that's why Knox is there.”“You mean, the same Knox who I'm sure you're aware was shot four times and was rushed to the hospital for treatment, who you couldn't check on to know if he's doing okay or not. What have you become, Marcus? Are all these things really so important to you more than the lives of all of us? Is it?” I couldn't help but feel a deep cut through my heart. It's hard not to see through the evil that Marcus is all about with this path he's on. “He has to do his job. He's well paid because happenings like this are expected and they are part of his job. You can't blame me for that. He should have been more careful.” Marcus says like it was Knox's fault that he got shot. “He was careful! Too careful and he still got shot!” I scoff, shaking my head as I pause. I wish he could see the disappointment on my face as I speak. “Wait, so if Knox didn't rec
