"How is Sharlynn?" Just as Richie opened the door, Keenan rushed in with a doctor who used to treat the Kaufmanns.

Keenan was still standing in the living room with the doctor. He was waiting for Richie to show him where his niece was.

"Let me take you. Sharlynn is in the room." Richie led the way ahead of Keenan and the doctor. After opening the door, Keenan could see his niece asleep on her back. His heart sank at the sight. His sister's only child's life had been turned upside down in an instant.

Keenan anxiously approached his niece and stood on her right side. Richie's bed was a little smaller and only fit one person, while two people had to squeeze in.

"Sharlynn," Keenan gently rubbed Sharlynn's forehead. He was a little surprised, not only because he felt his niece's body temperature, which was quite hot, but also because of the band-aid that covered the small cut on her forehead.

Sharlynn, hearing her name called, slowly opened her eyes. She still faintly recognized who the f

    After Keenan left the apartment, Richie decided to go into the room. Sharlynn was seen closing her eyes again, and her breathing looked a little heavy. Richie could see her chest rising and falling due to Sharlynn's position on her back.Richie walked over to the side of the bed and looked at the nightstand. The bowl of soup still looked full and started losing its smoke as it cooled. A glass of sparkling water was still on the same tray without a drop."Sharlynn," Richie called. He reached out and hesitantly placed his hand on her forehead. "You should eat something and take your medicine.""Richie, can you please not disturb me..." moaned Sharlynn, who was still not asleep. "My head is spinning."Richie's palm rose reflexively as he felt the woman's body temperature rise. His breath felt hot, too; maybe the doctor was right when he said Sharlynn had flu symptoms."Would you like something other than soup? I'll make it for you. But soup is delicious for your body to recover. You want

    Dante squeezed his eyes shut, his mouth slightly agape. His blue eyes scanned the slender, wavy brunette figure in the doorway. The pale face was still beautiful in Dante's eyes.Richie didn't like Dante's look, which looked like a predator that wanted to devour Sharlynn. PLAK!The broad, rough palm landed right on Dante's face. The blonde-haired man was shocked, and once again, the fedora hat was knocked off his head by the force of Richie's slap on Dante's face. An instantaneous numbness and tingling sensation ran through Dante's face, blurring the man's vision."Don't look at her like that or I'll gouge your eyes out," Richie warned in a cold tone as Dante bent over to pick up the fedora."But she's very pretty. You're blind if you're not interested in her," Dante cursed with a chuckle as he put the hat back on his head. Richie ignored him and walked over to Sharlynn, who still seemed confused by the presence of the two men involved in the fight."Go back to sleep, I'll get rid o

    BBRRUKK!They both fell right to the foot of the bed. A soft moan could be heard coming from the couple. Sharlynn rubbed the tip of her nose while Richie began to feel his chest getting heavy."Aauuww...Richie, you're so careless," Sharlynn complained with a grimace."You think your body is light? Get away from me!" shooed Richie, who was under the woman's body.Sharlynn blinked her eyes. She just realized that she was on top of Richie's body in a face-to-face position. The woman laughed at Richie, who seemed unable to move. "It's nice to see you miserable like this," Sharlynn said, which made Richie even more angry. If he hadn't remembered getting her into trouble, he would have rolled Sharlynn over violently."Get away from me or I'll roll you!" Richie demanded."Oh yeah? You want to hurt me again? I won't be able to. Feel this!" Sharlynn lowered her head and quickly sank her teeth into the man's left breast."Hey, what-" Richie gasped. He had not expected Sharlynn to touch him. "A

    "Richie's crazy, let me go!" Ignored, Sharlynn kicked her legs hard around her chest and stomach. But the man found a rope and tied Sharlynn's legs tightly so she could not move."What are you doing? You remember me, it hurts, Richie. Aaauuuww..." Sharlynn screamed as the thick rope began to scratch her white skin. "This punishment is well deserved!" Richie lowered Sharlynn off his shoulders and onto the bed. It was so rough that the woman's back immediately arched. Her legs were bound, but she still tried to struggle with both hands to get up.But misfortune was inevitable. Sharlynn's body could not get up as Richie quickly lowered her body back down. He pinned both of Sharlynn's hands above her head. Sharlynn's heartbeat immediately became chaotic. It almost stopped. When that handsome face with the firm jaw was close. The man's warm breath almost made Sharlynn's heart burst."What are you doing? Let go of me." Sharlynn's pale face made Richie pull back a corner of his lips. A pai

    The sound of cackling came from the mouths of the two men dressed formally in black. Julian's body was kicked forward, causing the man to scream even louder."We don't know the Eisenhauer family. We only know the del Vecchio family, who dominate companies in various fields in almost all of Europe!" "Del Vecchio?" said Julian, his eyes bulging. He had heard of the company. One of the real estate companies the Eisenhauer family wanted to work with. "Are you that close to the owner of this company? Why are you bringing the del Vecchio family name here?"The two tall, well-built men looked at each other. Then, without saying anything, one of them released his grip on Julian. The man got into Julian's car and drove him away.Julian couldn't move, but he knew that the sound of his car was fading and ringing in his ears again."Where are you taking my car?" shouted Julian, his face pressed tightly against the palm of the man's hand that was pinning him down.

    "Hey! You were pretending to sleep!" Not accepting this, Richie quickly pulled Sharlynn's leg, who kicked him."Aaauuuwwww...Richie, you're evil!" Sharlynn screamed at the top of her lungs as Richie managed to pull her legs apart until her body came out of the blanket."How dare you kick me! Huh?" Sharlynn was back under Richie's restraints with both hands pinned to her sides. But she wouldn't be Sharlynn if she didn't always annoy him. When their faces were close together, Sharlynn laughed contentedly. This made Richie furrow his brow."Why are you laughing at me?" asked Richie flatly. "You're funny and full of lies," Sharlynn answered, which made Richie angry. The man looked down and brought his face closer until the tip of their noses accidentally touched. Sharlynn tried to calm down and break down Richie's defenses. She jerked her head slightly, bringing her nose even closer to the tip of Richie's nose."Are you tired of these bitches?" Sharlynn's bold question challenged Richie

    "Auntie!" yelled Yolanda as she ran into the foyer upon seeing Sharlynn's arrival. Sharlynn held out both hands as she bowed. She greeted the petite blonde, who was flirtatious and beautiful."You must have missed Auntie a lot, huh?" Sharlynn flicked the tip of little Yolanda's pointed nose affectionately. An adorable giggle accompanied the little one's nose stroking."Where's Daddy? I went to the office, but Daddy wasn't there," Sharlynn asked."Daddy was with Uncle Richie. Why didn't Auntie come with Uncle?" the little one asked."Uncle was busy, honey. I didn't dare disturb him," Sharlynn replied gently."Come on, Yola, take me to Daddy's study.

Richie slipped the gun around his left waist, under the jacket that wrapped his body tightly.Then he pulled out a black device the size of a matchstick. Pressing a red button, the small screen on the surface of the device immediately lit up, displaying a two-dimensional map.With everything he needed, Richie started to get out of the car. It was quiet, just two people standing guard at the door. Something he had not seen until he had entered the Eisenhauer mansion for the first time.Richie strolled, only one foot lifting the stairs leading to the terrace, when someone's voice stopped him."Stop! Your filthy feet do not belong in the mansion of an honorable family!" Richie stopped his steps. He pulled his right foot back and stopped.The grey eyes scanned the source of the voic

    “DAMMIT!” cursed Aurora as she slammed the cell phone in her hand until it split and its parts scattered to the floor. Romeo, who was surprised by her impulsive behavior, frowned in surprise and went to her. “Aurora, what happened?” he asked. “We've underestimated that little bitch too much!” she swore as her breath hitched in anger. Romeo narrowed his eyes, not knowing what she meant. “What does she mean?” he asked. Aurora replied that Sharlynn had paralyzed her men. Meanwhile, the car used to take Sharlynn and Andriano was now at the police station. Romeo was completely shocked and couldn't believe it. “We have to leave immediately. Sevariano must have known about this kidnapping. Especially since we dared to kidnap that old fart!” Aurora said frantically.Romeo nodded his head in understanding, “We have to go. Prepare everything, we'll take Danny first and then we'll go escape to a safe place until Sevariano gives up searching.”“I agree,” Aurora said with a small nod.Not wan

    Sharlynn, who was still awake in the captivity, tried to wake up Grandpa Andriano. “Grandpa, wake up!” she shouted at the old man beside her three meters away, in the same position as her, both hands tied. Aurora forgot that Sharlynn was clever enough for that. Her unbound legs struggling to move, the woman bent over while her hands were tied to the wooden chair and approached Andriano's grandfather. Sharlynn was forced to step on the old man's foot after getting close to him. Grandpa Andriano was startled and instantly woke up from his stupor, his eyes blinking, trying to figure out what was going on. “Where are we?” grandpa Andriano asked. “Grandpa, we're being held by Aurora. We need to get out of here and contact Richie,” hearing the name Sharlynn mentioned, made Grandpa Andriano's expression instantly furious. “That woman, I knew it,” he said. But as he scanned the two of them, the old man seemed unsure if he could get out of there. Soon, the door creaked and a burly man w

    The sound of banging outside the car could still be heard repeatedly. Sharlynn and Andriano's grandfather were getting more and more panicked, the driver of the car still stayed in place without opening the car window. The pounding of the heart inside Sharlynn's chest grew louder as she saw the mysterious men brandishing firearms and shooting at their bulletproof car. “I feel more and more guilty, I shouldn't have forbidden my men from escorting us,” grandfather Andriano said in between his panic. Meanwhile, Sharlynn, who still looked timid, was still trying to contact Richie. The dial tone began to be heard, almost she could contact Richie but something made her even more surprised until her cellphone once again fell when the car from behind deliberately hit the car she was riding in. Sharlynn suddenly screamed, now their car was being pushed forward until it moved. “Tell them we're giving up!” exclaimed Grandpa Andriano who couldn't bear to see Sharlynn so tense and scared. “Bu

    During the ride in the car, Sharlynn seemed to be just speechless sitting next to Andriano's grandfather. I remember what Richie said this morning. Her heart began to doubt and falter, she really wanted to usurp her rights as Richie's wife, but she was reminded of the boy's existence. Sharlynn feels like the worst person to separate a child from his father.Sharlynn sat quietly next to grandfather Andriano, her eyes occasionally drifting out the window, staring at the passing scene without a clear focus. His mind continued to drift into unresolved inner struggles.'With Aurora and her son among us, what should I do?'his mind, trying to find answers in the midst of indecision.'Do I have to give up' his inner rage. 'I couldn't have lived apart, Richie would have preferred Aurora and her son.'His hands clasped, reflecting the anxiety that crept into his heart. In his mind, questions and doubts raged against each other, creating a chaotic mess that was difficult to unravel.Grandfather

    It was a hot afternoon when Richie entered his headquarters, an old building located on the outskirts of the city, hidden from the crowds and public view. The man looked tense, his jaw set, signaling the importance of the purpose of his arrival this time. With quick, decisive steps, Richie approached one of his men, a stocky man with short hair who looked alert.“Show me where they are,” Richie said in a tone that didn't allow for any rebuttal. The man nodded, understanding that the situation was critical, and led Richie to a room at the back of the headquarters.When the door to the room was opened, the atmosphere was tense. Inside the room, there was a long and tall aquarium in which several venomous snakes were swimming. The hissing sound of the snakes was accompanied by the weak screams of three men who were suspended above the aquarium. Their hands hung above their heads while their feet hung just above the surface of the water, making them look extremely vulnerable to the bit

  • Charm of a Cold Bodyguard   Richie has regrets?

    Sharlynn looked at Richie with sad eyes. It made Richie even more heartbroken by the expression on the woman's face who was in his arms. “Richie, do I hurt all over? What happened last night after we had dinner?” Sharlynn asked innocently. Richie swallowed his saliva roughly, he wanted to explain everything to Sharlynn, but he still decided against it. Richie was sure Sharlynn would be completely shocked by that. He led her into the bathroom and put Sharlynn's body into the bathtub without removing the blanket that was still wrapped around her body. “Richie, why are you silent?” repeated Sharlynn, while Richie was still busy opening the faucet and pouring water into the bath.Richie gently adjusted the temperature of the water, making sure it wasn't too hot or cold, trying to provide comfort for Sharlynn who looked in desperate need. He stole a glance at Sharlynn who looked weak, her sweet eyes holding confusion and fatigue.“Richie, please, I really don't understand what's going

    Richie clenched his fists, feeling a deep sense of frustration as he faced Andriano's grandfather who chuckled in a mocking tone. His face showed disappointment and his gaze sharpened.“But it's not like this, Grandpa,” Richie protested in an emphatic tone, clearly rejecting what he felt was unfair treatment.“Everything's already happened, no matter how much you want to protest, Sharlynn is already your wife. You didn't do anything to hurt her, did you?” asked Grandpa Andriano in a tone that seemed to seek justification for his actions.Grandpa Andriano's loud, cynical laugh made the situation even more tense. Richie could only shake his head in disbelief, feeling abused and betrayed by the man who was supposed to protect him.“Grandpa, what you're doing is not right. What happens if Sharlynn or I can't accept this situation? What you're doing is manipulation, not help,” Richie said, his voice filled with unstoppable disappointment and anger.Grandfather Andriano sighed, observing hi

    Richie could not stop the uncomfortable feeling in his body. He decided to get out of the bathroom after splashing his body with cold water. He walked past Sharlynn's body lying on the bed writhing. When he arrived at the door of the room, Richie did not waste any time trying to force open the door handle repeatedly. “Shit!” cursed Richie. As he looked confused by his failed attempt to open the door, he heard Sharlynn's hoarse voice. “Richie, why does my body feel weird...hot...I want some water,” Sharlynn whispered, forcing Richie to turn around. Unfortunately, he saw Sharlynn's hips moving so beautifully, bending her knees and her thighs rubbing together. Seeing that very erotic scene, Richie began to feel something arousing. He tried to get closer to Sharlynn, seeing that the dress attached to the woman's body looked even more messy, revealing a long neck and smooth shoulders that looked sweaty. “Sharlynn, what are you feeling?” The stupid question suddenly came out of Richi

    That night, the dining room of Andriano's mansion was filled with sparkling crystal chandeliers, creating a warm and luxurious atmosphere in one corner of the mansion. The long dining table was spread with a crisp white tablecloth and tableware neatly arranged, waiting to be used for the dinner that was about to take place.Sharlynn, in her elegant dress, stepped gently into the dining room, a sweet smile gracing her face. “Good evening, Grandpa,” greeted Sharlynn in a soft, warm voice. She gracefully pulled out a chair and sat down, her demeanor full of elegance and politeness.Grandpa Andriano, who was already seated at the end of the table, returned the greeting with a heavy but loving voice. “Good evening, Sharlynn,” he said. His sharp eyes momentarily searched for someone else behind Sharlynn's figure. “Where is Sevariano? I heard his voice on the way to the dining room?”Sharlynn, who was already quite familiar with her grandfather's concern for Richie, gave a wry smile. Her
