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

"Sir. It's me, Vic. Come I come in?""Enter."A woman dressed in black entered the room. The scent of paperwork and books enveloped her as she looked at her boss, Martin Cadell, the young Chairman of Crimson Corporation.Martin remained focused on his laptop, not bothering to glance up as she walked in. His attention was clearly elsewhere, highlighting that he was busy."Are you here to submit your resignation letter once again?" Martin asked without facing her.Vic anxiously bit her lower lip. She held the resignation letter in her hand, but she hadn't expected Martin to figure out her purpose.Martin flashed a smile as he spoke, "I've already told you. You can't resign. I haven't found anyone as skilled as you to be my bodyguard."It's been a whole month since Vic told Martin about quitting as his bodyguard. Martin promised to let her go once he found a suitable replacement, but it seems like he hasn't made any effort at all."Sir Martin," Vic called out. "I want to thank you for tr

In the courtroom, Zoe's loud sobs echoed through the room."Vic claimed that I had ruined her time with Martin. She accused me of stealing her opportunities, and then, out of nowhere, she attacked me with a knife!"Dressed in her prison attire, Vic shut her eyes as if resigning to her fate.All the evidence and false testimonies seemed to be stacked against her. It was as if Zoe had orchestrated the whole thing to frame her. Consequently, the trial concluded with Vic being found guilty and sentenced to 20 years behind bars.** **Days had gone by since Vic was imprisoned, yet she hadn't eaten a thing. She simply rested against the wall, lost in a daze.Most of the time, she appeared to be waiting nonchalantly for her fate to catch up with her.Suddenly, she heard footsteps approaching. The sound ceased right in front of her cell. "Inmate 654. You have a visitor."Who could be visiting her when she had no family?Feeling feeble, Vic got up. Her heart was heavy, but she managed to shuff
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 3. "To Meet Her Boss Again"
Vic, who passed away in prison, found herself waking up in the body of a young, wealthy, and stunning heiress named Victoria Red."Victoria Red is the fiancée of my boss. She was in a coma for two years following an accident. If she doesn't wake up by next year, Martin was thinking of calling off the engagement," Vic whispered to herself in the hospital.It was still unbelievable to her how a simple guard like herself ended up in Victoria's body, inheriting the wealth and status of a prominent family.“Then how about my body? Did my body as Vic really die?”As she thought, the hospital door suddenly opened and she met three people. They turned out to be Victoria's family, all hoping for her to wake up from her coma."According to the doctor, there's nothing wrong with you," Victoria's father, Emmanuel, mentioned.Sitting beside Vic, her mother Sabby gently stroked her head. "Sweetheart, do you really not recognize any of us?"Vic looked at them and shook her head."Oh dear. My poor da
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 4. "Breaking the Engagement"
It's been a whole month since Vic passed away. Martin just couldn't focus on his work and he was lacked of sleep. On top of that, he found out that his fiancée, Victoria Red, had woken up from her coma. This meant he had to go see her and have a conversation about their engagement."Are you really going to see her today?" Hunter, his secretary, asked."I have to, even if I don't really want to," Martin replied."Her family still blames you for the accident, Sir.""Well, I can't really argue with that," Martin admitted.If only Victoria hadn't been so infatuated with Martin, she wouldn't have driven all by herself just to see him."All I want is to end the engagement. I heard she had lost her memory. This is my only opportunity," Martin said, grabbing his suit.When he stepped out of his room, he spotted his childhood friend, Zoe, wearing a bandage around her arm."Is it true? Are you really going to see your fiancée?" Zoe inquired with a concerned expression.Martin averted his gaze.
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 5. "Confusion"
Victoria's family eagerly awaited her return home, prepared to offer comfort in case she arrived after Martin decided to call off their engagement.When Vic finally arrived, her mother, Sabby, quickly ushered her to the couch and wasted no time asking, "What's going on, dear? Did Martin really end things with you?"Her father Emmanuel added, "Seriously, what's wrong with that guy? We can definitely find a better business partner than that heartless jerk! Don't worry about him, Victoria. You deserve someone much better."Victoria's twin brother Mikhail simply rolled his eyes and remarked, "You guys are blowing this out of proportion. Victoria has amnesia, remember? Even if Martin ended things, she'd be fine. Unless, of course, she's fallen for him all over again. Have you, Vic?"Vic glanced upwards, feeling grateful that she, an orphan, now had a loving family. It was because of this newfound happiness that she made the decision to live life to the fullest.But why?Why would Martin at
Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride 6. "Angel In Disguise"
Victoria Red would rather save a drowning ant than save Zoe from a crocodile. That's how deep her hatred runs.Every time Victoria encountered her fiancé, Martin, Zoe would conveniently appear and act sweetly while putting a facade of friendship towards him.Victoria imagined slapping Zoe repeatedly for her deceitful actions. However, she refrained from doing so out of love for Martin and the desire to maintain a good impression in his eyes.'Why did this woman try to deceive me?' Vic pondered silently after she doused Zoe's face with juice.Upon discovering that Victoria had lost her memories, Zoe saw an opportunity to manipulate her and falsely claimed to be her best friend.'As if I will fall for her scheme. This woman once accused me of attempting to kill her, and I would never let her trick me again,' Vic thought, determined to teach Zoe a lesson she would remember.Meanwhile, Zoe stood there, drenched in juice, her mouth agape like a fish out of water.She looked at Vic and thou

'Zoe will tell Martin what I did,' Vic was sure of this.But unlike before, she made the decision not to care about Martin's response. In the end, she was determined to break off her engagement with him.'If he gets mad at me and ends the engagement because of the incident, then it will be better,' Vic thought.Standing near the balcony, Vic overheard Victoria's twin brother's voice."Sis!" Mikhail called out, gasping for breath. "Did you really throw juice on Zoe?"Vic, who no longer worried about Martin's reaction, now found herself concerned if she had done something that would anger Victoria's family."Do our parents know?" she asked."No. I asked everyone who knew it to keep it a secret. So, why the hell did you do that?""She was rude," Vic said before biting her lower lip. She thought she would hear an earful nag from Mikhail. However…Mikhail patted her shoulder and said, "I'm really proud of you, Sis." Vic was taken aback and looked at him, waiting for him to continue."You u

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.

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?

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.

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.”
