Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 16. "To See The Rich CEO"
Gray, dressed in his chef attire, walked past another chef who was cooking fresh clams in a pan with butter.“Budget your time well, okay?” He said.Altogether, his cooks answered, “Yes, Chef!”An amateur chef took a step back when attempting to put damp shrimp in the pan, resulting in a reaction from the oil.“Hey!” Gray yelled out, "you shouldn't be putting those wet shrimps in the hot oil like that." Walking over, he expressed his frustration, "Seriously, how many times do I need to remind you about this?"Glancing at the other chefs, who seemed oblivious, he emphasized, "When someone is in trouble, pay attention! I don't want to have to repeat myself over and over again, okay?"“Yes, Chef,” they answered.This is what Gray's typical day in the kitchen looks like. Even though his employees are aware of his kindness, he becomes a complete terror when he's working in the kitchen.But since Gray doesn't come around often, they think it's bearable to endure his tantrums for a day.Gray

When Gray returned to the kitchen, everyone immediately noticed the shift in his mood."You messed up, but it's alright. We all make mistakes. Just fix it, okay?" Gray said to the Chef, who had made an error while cooking."What caused this sudden change?" they all wondered.Finally, the work hours came to an end.Curiosity got the better of Gray as he glanced into the dining hall, wondering if Victoria was still there."She waited for hours," Gray whispered to himself as he saw her sitting upright in the chair where he had left her.As Gray delved into researching about Victoria, he discovered that she had a not-so-great reputation due to her temper. However, after waking up from her coma, she had undergone a remarkable transformation."Someone as rich as her actually waited for hours just to see me?" Gray whispered, scratching his chin.Now, his curiosity was piqued even more.Feeling a mix of suspicion and happiness, Gray approached her. "I'm surprised you're still here, Miss."Vic

“Sir Richard.”A sweet voice a woman echoed in the hallway.Sir Richard, Mikhail’s secretary, turned around and looked at the owner of the voice. He was awed for a bit to see Mikhail’s twin sister running towards him. Not only she’s pretty, but she even called him ‘Sir’!“Y-Yes, Miss Victoria?” he asked.Vic stood before him and tucked her hair behind her ears. ‘I really wanted to cut my hair short but it’s disrespectful to Victoria’s soft hair.’With a sigh, she lifted her head and looked at her twin brother’s secretary.‘Even though she’s my boss’s twin sister, she looks very different to him,’ Richard thought with a gulp.“I heard that there is a family outing between Red and Cadell family. May I know why I wasn’t informed about this?” she asked.Richard answered, “That was because your family knew how much you hated the engagement. They just don’t want to create a situation where you will feel uncomfortable with your fiancé.”‘I appreciated their care,’ Vic said to herself, feelin

“I don’t need you unless it’s really Vic. I only like my sister Vic! Don’t come here anymore!”**“Ben!” Nadia's call for Ben went unanswered, prompting her to turn to Victoria with a mix of confusion and sympathy. "I'm sorry. I think he really cares about Vic.""It's okay. Can I try talking to him?"Nadia gave a quick nod, allowing Victoria to step outside in search of Ben.While she had anticipated some of this, Victoria was still taken aback by the reality of the situation. She couldn't help but feel guilty that the child was upset because of her."Ben!"Worried that he might have wandered off too far, Victoria scanned the area and spotted a small figure huddled under a tree behind the orphanage.She felt a wave of relief wash over her the moment she recognized Ben.Instead of calling out to the crying figure with his head in his lap, she quietly went and sat down beside him.Ben lifted his head at the sound of footsteps, and his expression changed to surprise when he saw that it w

Leaving his current tasks behind, Martin hopped into his car and headed towards Joy Orphanage.Before long, he pulled up in front of the building situated on the outskirts.Reading the sign that said "Joy Orphanage," he double-checked the nameplate by the entrance before cautiously stepping inside.As he made his way through the garden, the delightful sounds of children's laughter filled the air."I'll hide now!"Amidst the joyful voices, whether they were playing or not, he followed the sound as if it were guiding him."Alright! Hide well, kids!"However, upon hearing the woman's voice accompanying the children, he stopped in his tracks.'That voice,' he whispered, recognizing the familiarity.Staying put, he continued to listen to the sounds surrounding him."Miss Vic! Please don't look! And don't forget to count all the numbers!""Sure thing! I'll count them all. Quick, go hide!"Martin whispered to himself, "Miss Vic?"He couldn't resist picking up his pace when he heard Vic's nam

"Sir. Why don't you rest for today? You did a lot of work," said Vic. Martin answered, "Adults have their own games. And they have no time to rest because they have to win every day." Those words were etched in Vic's mind for a long time. Therefore, she mistakenly repeated the same word when Martin was standing before her. ** ** Martin pulled Victoria away from the children and from the director of the orphanage. In a place where no one could watch them, they stood in front of each other. She looked at Martin, who pulled her head and saw a more hostile expression than she had ever seen. "What's wrong?" she asked, hurriedly pulling her arm out of his grasp at the momentary change in the atmosphere. But Martin had such a strong grip on her that she couldn't shake him off easily.Martin was in a state of confusion. Those were the words that Victoria had said before."How do you know that?" he asked. "Huh? What is it?" "I'm asking about those words you said earlier. Adults have th

“Do you have feelings for me?” Victoria asked Martin.The mere question caused Martin to fall silent. If Victoria's intention was to silence him, she had achieved it.A tense silence lingered between them as they locked eyes. Eventually, Victoria was the one to break the silence."Do you believe your interest in me only sparked because I changed so much after losing my memories? Or have you developed feelings for me?" she inquired once more.Martin's response this time was a simple, "No."‘As expected,’ Victoria said to herself before chuckling bitterly. “Same here,” she lied. “I have no feelings for you. The conversation ended.”"You're mistaken. It's because your question is flawed. I know small details about you even when you had your memories. How can I develop feelings for someone I barely know?"Victoria looked down and replied, "That's it. So...""But I want to get to know you."She fell silent and gazed at him, realizing he wasn't joking.She couldn't comprehend his words. It

"Did Vic really try to kill you?"** **Martin always had complete trust in Zoe. So, when he posed the question, Zoe's eyes quivered. She couldn't utter a single word as she gazed at Martin."What if you simply misinterpreted everything?" he interjected. "Perhaps Vic didn't actually intend to stab you. Did she truly confess her jealousy towards you?"Zoe shivered. Tears filled her eyes, not because she was hurt by Martin's doubt but because she feared being exposed.But when Martin caught a glimpse of her eyes, his perspective shifted. Memories of the day he unintentionally injured Zoe's leg during their childhood flooded back, leaving him overwhelmed with guilt."Sorry," he muttered, his voice filled with remorse. "I never meant to question you."Gulping, Zoe's voice broke as she said, "It's been so long since you last talked about her. You know that I still have trauma when I think of Miss Vic." She looked down, trying to conceal her anxiety.Martin let out a deep breath and replied

Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride Epilogue 12. "The News"
Victoria confessed to her parents about her pasts. Although Sabby and Emmanuel were happy for the news that her memories came back, they were in sorrow to learn that their youngest child was once a victim of r*pe.However, Victoria told them that she’s finally okay. If there’s one thing she wishes for, that is to meet Mark for the last time.Therefore, Victoria visited the prison. She sat on a chair in front of glass window where she could see Mark.“Long time no see, Mark,” Victoria uttered.Mark, who changed his name into Ian and worked as Martin’s bodyguard, couldn’t stare back at Victoria. “Why are you here?” he asked.“Well, I guess I wanted to see you for the last time,” Victoria said. “I mean after you threatened me for spilling the truth and tattered my car, I knew I have to see you.”Mark’s eyes grew. He looked at Victoria, who seemed to be the real Victoria.“Are you really Victoria?” he asked.Somehow, even though Vic didn’t tell Mark about the soul changing, Mark believed

“You can do it, girl. Expose that b*tch,” Sofia gave support to Victoria.Victoria nodded her head. She couldn’t accept Vic as her sister because of the DNA test result. So, she’s planning to expose this during the party.She stood next to Mikhail and Vic.Victoria looked at the guests and smiled evilly. ‘You are done for,’ she laughed inwardly.She raised her chin and said, “This woman is…!”‘Is not my sister,’ that’s what she has to say. However, Victoria was surprised finding herself unable to say the words.The silence confused the listeners.‘What is this?’ Victoria asked herself.She felt the rush of sad emotions brewing in her heart.“She is…” she whispered, urging herself to talk. But all of a sudden, tears fell from her eyes.Everyone watched as Victoria burst into tears.“Victoria,” Vic called. She held Victoria’s arm and asked, “Are you okay?”Yet, Victoria could only cry. Sabby and Emmanuel approached their children. “Victoria, calm down. I’ll take you inside.”Sabby held
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride Epilogue 10. "Welcoming The Billionaire's Daughter"
Guests gathered at the Red’s mansion’s garden. All were talking about the eldest daughter of the Red family, who returned after many years.“Whoever she is, she’s so lucky!”“Who won’t be? We’re talking about the Red family who owns billions.”“I wonder if she’s single. I mean, I am willing to be the family’s in-laws,” someone joked.“Your son just got divorce. My son would be the better choice.”Everyone was so excited to meet the eldest daughter of the renowned family in the country. They expected she might be as extravagant as the famous Victoria Red or Mikhail Red.From the window of the mansion, Vic nervously looked at the guests below.“Damn it. I was always composed in the past. Why am I being nervous now?” Vic murmured, caressing her chest.She used to come to parties like that, but because she’s the star of the event, she couldn’t help but be nervous.‘I don’t want to bring bad name to my family,’ she thought as she took a deep breath.“Vic, are you there?”She heard her boyf

Martin looked at the space while inside his office. The other day, he met a brave woman who saved a child from getting hit by his car. Somehow after that encounter, the woman wouldn’t leave his mind.‘Why am I being like this toward a stranger I met for the first time?’ he asked himself.“Was it because of the odd things she said?” he murmured.The woman asked if he was fine now. She even told him he looked great as if she knew him beforehand.“Haa,” Martin sighed.He didn’t want any distractions as he had so much work.“Let’s work, shall we?” he tried to persuade himself.But just as he was determined to get rid of distraction and begin to work, a series of knocks came.Tap. Tap.Followed by the secretary’s announcement, “This is Secretary Louis, Sir.”“Come in,” Martin allowed.Louis, the new secretary, came inside with a small envelope in his hand. He greeted his boss, “Good day, Sir. You received an invitation to a night party this upcoming Sunday.”“A party?” Martin highlighted a

Victoria was furious. A woman suddenly showed up in their house and claimed to be her eldest sister.“Why would my parents buy into this?” Victoria vented to her best friend, Sofia.They were at the party celebrating Victoria’s new movie, which was set to premiere globally.“I mean, she just appeared out of thin air. She doesn’t even look like any of us,” Victoria said, taking a big swig of her drink.Sofia let out a sigh and gave her a reassuring pat on the back. “Well, there’s a way to find out if she’s really your sister.” She leaned in and whispered, “How about a DNA test?”Victoria thought that was a solid plan. She was pretty sure Vic wasn’t her sister, and she was ready to prove it to her family.She went back home that night, knowing that Vic would be back home from Italy.Victoria waited for her.“Miss Victoria. Miss Vic is here,” reported the maid.On her night dress, Victoria went out of the house. But when she stepped out of the door, she saw Vic together with a familiar p

Sabby turned to Vic and said, "We figured out why we couldn't track you down; you ended up in another country."Vic glanced over at Emmanuel, who added, "You lost your memories, and the family that took you in gave you a new name. You spent your childhood in an orphanage, and eventually, you became Martin's bodyguard."In her parents' room, Vic saw them in tears as they recounted the events from years ago.'I can't believe this,' Vic thought to herself.All she wanted was to connect with the people she thought of as family. Instead, she discovered she was actually the long-lost daughter of a billionaire family, meaning she had been part of the Red family all along.Emmanuel sobbed, "I'm really sorry, Rica. Dad swore he’d always keep you safe, but I failed to do that when it mattered most."Sabby squeezed Vic’s hands and said, “We’re truly sorry for all the struggles you faced.” She gently stroked the roughness of her hands and continued, “I can’t even begin to imagine what you went th

Rica is the eldest daughter of the billionaire couple, Sabby and Emmanuel. For them, she was a precious gem.“Mom! Dad! I can see the ocean!” Rica energetically pointed to the ocean that could be seen from the shore.“Isn’t it beautiful, honey?” Sabby asked.“It is! It shines like diamonds!” Rica exclaimed and was soon cradled by the strong arms of her father.“I have no debts left, alright? I took you here and we’re quits,” Emmanuel said.Rica squinted her eyes and said, “We still have more games left, Dad. And if I win again, that means, you need to make my wish come true.”“You sneaky kid,” Emmanuel chuckled before tickling her.“Dad! That tickles!”“Guys, be careful,” Sabby warned and soon, she saw the huge ship approaching the deck. “It’s here! Look!”Emmanuel and Rica stopped playing around and looked at the sailing large boat that blossomed right there on the ocean.“Wow! It’s so huge!” Rica exclaimed. “And we’re going to ride there, aren’t we?”Sabby smiled at her daughter and

In the living room, Vic and Victoria were lounging on opposite couches. Mikhail had stepped out to pick up his parents, leaving the two women to chat.As they sat there, Victoria noticed Vic's intense gaze on her. She shot back, “Stop staring at me like that. It’s kind of creepy.”Vic quickly looked away and replied, “Sorry. It’s just a bit strange having you right in front of me.”Victoria smirked, “Is it because I’m too gorgeous?”Vic chuckled, “I mean, I already knew you were good-looking, but you definitely have some confidence.”Victoria frowned, “I didn’t like that. It feels like a dig at me.”"No, I'm not trying to insult you. Actually, I just realized why it was so easy for Mikhail to uncover my secret. You were really a unique person, Victoria," Vic said."Enough with that. Just be honest with me. What’s your real connection to my brother? He’s not the type to cry easily, but you made him sob like a child. Did you two ever date?""That's a strange thing to say. I never though

While walking in the garden, Victoria heard noisy sounds coming from the gate of the mansion.“What’s the noise about? It’s already hard to rest because of my busy schedule. Geez,” Victoria uttered before walking towards the commotion.Outside the gate, she saw a plain-looking woman who was standing before the guard of the family.“You…!” the guard shouted. "Leave now, or I’ll call the police!"She got curious what happened so she asked, “What’s going on here? It was so loud that I felt like I was in a zoo. What’s going on?”Victoria glanced over at the plain-looking woman and felt a chill run down her spine as she caught the intensity in the woman’s eyes. To her surprise, the lady suddenly looked like she was about to cry.‘What’s up with this woman?’ Victoria wondered. ‘Is she a fan or something?’Confused by the woman’s emotions, Victoria finally asked, “Who are you?”The woman didn’t respond right away. Instead, she managed a weak smile and said, “I heard you’ve lost your memory.”
