Chapter 55
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56A week has passed since Dad and Hans dropped the bombshell and Hans has told me to think about my decision carefully. He even went as far as listing the pros and cons of a marriage with him. I have never seen Hans so serious before. Thinking over it every day is a big headache but my brain is telling me that this is the best step to take in my situation. If I give birth without a father, my dad will suffer from worry and society will probably give my family a hard time.
Although I know Hans is doing this in my best interest, I am still miffed that he didn't discuss it with me before going to my dad. Hiding under my covers in case I get caught, I scroll down my phone.

Hans stares at me as I lie on my bed and grumpily munch on the sour mango. He has probably noticed my mood going downhill as each day passes and I am bored at home. Truthfully, I have begged him to find some work for me or let me work with him but Hans has refused because he wants me to be careful."Miss Grumpy, look what I bought." He says, standing near me as I read some webcomics on my mobile phone. His shadow is blocking the screen."I don't care. You're in the way." I mutter, giving him a little push."You're so mean to me Tina." He sulks but I don't look up from my comic."Why do you keep disturbing me?" I groan.Suddenly, I feel tickles on my feet and I giggle."S-stop it Hans! You know I'm ticklish!" I pant as I try to stop laughing."Will you listen now or the tickle monster will tickle more." He threatens evilly.

Hans drops me off at the cafe we have agreed to meet at. I know he isn't comfortable or happy with me meeting Liana King but I reassure him that I will be perfectly fine. I don't know how Liana will act towards me now that she knows the truth.I can accept that she will hate me like Panda King but I am not prepared to lose a friend. Anxiously, I slowly walk into the restaurant. I wore a maternity top today since my bump has grown a little. You can't see it unless you stare closely."Liana." I smile awkwardly as I sit down opposite her.Her blue eyes widen as she glances at me. "Tin? I...couldn't recognise you.""I'm sorry." I say again, closing my eyes as I wait for her reaction. I couldn't sleep at all last night because I was so busy worrying over how angry she will be."It's fine."I open my eyes in surprise as she gently smiles. Why is she not

Tears drop down his face as he stares, horrified at the stream of red blood dripping down the head of the woman he loves. It is his fault for slamming on the breaks in anger when he heard her mention that evil woman. "I am sorry. I'm so sorry Tina." He whispers over and over again as he uses the first aid kit in his car to clean her wound. Her forehead hit the window quite hard. He wants to take her to the hospital but he knows that the media will involve her in a scandal if he does. Reporters are always following him nowadays. Ever since he met Ciarra Lake, his life has not been peaceful. Fortunately, the wound isn't deep so he gently places a plaster over it. Staring at her unconscious face, he softly kisses her forehead. She is right in front of him, yet she seems so far away. When will he be able to be with her like this again? There is less than a week until his wedding but his heart has not changed. Panda rea

Currently, I am chewing my nails. The reason is because Liana has found out about my upcoming marriage with Hans. Who could have been the whistle blower? Is probably what you are wondering now. Of course it is none other than, "Mint! Tell me right now, exactly what you mentioned to Liana!" I scream down the phone. When did Liana and Mint become friendly with each other? As far as Liana told me, her and Mint always bickered when she went over to pester him about my whereabouts. "C-Calm down sis." He sounds guilty, "I didn't mean to. It kind of slipped." "You'll be slipping on your face when I see you." I threaten half jokingly. What if Panda finds out? "I'm sorry sis. Forgive me? You know I need my face to live." Mint moans. "Yes, like picking up girls with it." I say sarcastically. My brother is handsome and gets as much attention as I usually did

By the time the ferry stops at the shore of Berta Island, I am nauseous from seasickness. I smile at the captain weakly before dragging my suitcase behind me as I exit the ferry.It has been a day since I set off and by now Hans is probably mad at home but this is something I have to do. I touch my stomach. I need to know the truth.As the island is the King's private land, only the sounds of the ocean and seagulls accompany me as I walk forward. There are no signs of a human at all. My stomach rumbles with hunger and I glance around for something edible.There are some coconuts and mangoes under the trees. Smiling in relief, I collect a few and crack open a coconut. I eat one part of the coconut and more of the juicy mango slices. As I wander further inside the island, I find a glamorous mansion with a small hut in front of it. They appear to be the only buildings here.Tiredly, I knock on the door

Once we have calmed down, I do my best to cook the fish Panda King caught earlier in the small kitchen area. It makes me gag but there is nothing else to eat. I would suggest having the chickens outside but that would be rude of me since I am a guest and I don't want to start another fight with Panda. After we have eaten, the darkness arrives and I glance at Panda. "I'll be heading back home now." "Not yet." He clings onto me like a child and I gasp as he grabs my arm. "There's no ferry at this time. Stay with me Tina." I sigh, "There's really no ferry back? What time will it come tomorrow?" Panda gives me his puppy eyes stare, "I'm not ready to return to my chained life. Stay with me please." "I..." "Please stay Tina." He sounds like a little boy. The sadness in his eyes hold me captive. "Fine." I sigh.&nb

"Tina, are you sure about this?" Panda King asks as I sip the coconut water from the coconut which he cracked for me. I nod and smile at him, "You have a better idea?" "You know I don't." He sits down next to me on the giant rock as the waves splash around our ankles. "I'm just worried about what might happen." Grabbing his hand, I gaze into his worried eyes which match the ocean in front of us. "Don't worry Pan. If you play the cards right, we will have her hook, line and sinker." He frowns as he stares at me, "Hold on, aren't you even a tiny bit jealous?" Laughing at his concern, I pat his hand and lie, "Of course not. I wouldn't have planned this if I was." His eyebrows furrow more as he pouts, "Not even a minuscule?" Sighing dramatically, I reach my hand out and touch his forehead, "Don't frown so much, you'll get wrinkl

TW: Slightly 18+ Content _____________________________ After staying at the island with Panda King for a few days, I have discovered that he has learnt new skills and improved himself into a better man than which I had thought. "Open your mouth love." He says gently as he holds the spoon out towards my mouth. I stare at him incredulously, "I'm not ill Pan, I can eat by myself." He shakes his head, "I have to take extra care of you right now. What would I do if you got hurt? Just let me feed you." Staring at the bowl of soup in his hand, I warily ask, "Is it edible?" "Of course it is! You don't know how long I practiced cooking after you left. I can make a decent meal now." He puts the spoon of soup into my mouth as I obediently eat. "Of course not as good as you love." I blush as he feeds me. I am stil

His Bodyguard Chapter 70
Heart racing and my hands shaking with nervousness, I stand up. The mirror is a long floor length and my white gown flows down my body like a waterfall. The lacy neck adds a touch of elegance to the dress and the trail is shorter than the regular wedding dress' since I want to make sure I don't accidentally trip whilst I walk. As Liana turns around and puts the makeup and hair styling tools back into her bag, I pace around, trying to calm my nerves. "Tina, are you still nervous? Don't worry, everything will be fine. I'll look after baby Carl when you walk down the aisle." Liana says, patting my shoulder comfortingly. Panda and I finally decided on a name for our baby because the parents kept scolding us for calling our son "Cub". Thus, he is now named Carl Martin King. I smile at her, "Thank you. I don't even know why I am so nervous." I admit. I haven't been feeling well since last night. It must be what the

Sleeping in the same room as Panda King feels different. It's different from all the times in the past when I was "Tin" and it's different from the night at the island. My nerves are everywhere as he wraps his arm around me and hugs me to him as I lie on my side. Cub is sleeping in his Moses basket which my father already prepared for him. I am surprised how easily my dad accepted my baby and Panda. I thought he would continue with his cold, stern father charade for longer. "You're not asleep yet are you?" He asks quietly. I close my eyes and pretend to sleep. I feel him moving his body even closer, his warmth against my back. "I know you can't sleep." He whispers into my ear, causing my body to shiver. I try to stay still but he gently turns me over until we are facing each other. "Open your eyes or I will kiss you." He teases. Damn it! Not

Once the doctor has made sure that I am fine, Panda holds my hand and takes me to the Neonatal ward. The nurse gently picks up a sleeping Cub and hands him over to me. It feels both wonderful and fascinating as I feel my child in my arms."It's best to feed him your own breast milk for the first year, then he can be weaned onto baby food later." She explains as my eyes are still fixated on him.I nod absentmindedly, too busy gazing at this cute baby. "Yes.""Thank you for taking care of Cu-our son." Panda says with a smile. He wraps his arm softly around my waist and gently manoeuvres me out of the room."He is so cute." I say quietly, touching Cub's soft hair."Just like his dad." Panda grins.I chuckle, "No way, he obviously takes after his mum.""Of course. His mother is the most beautiful woman." Panda hugs me to him. "I'm glad

With my face damp, I wake up. Did I have a nightmare again? Why is my body hurting? Sitting up slowly, I glance around. I am not in my room. My hand has a familiar drip injected inside. Why am I in the hospital again? Touching my bump, I gasp. Why does it feel so light? Where is my baby?! Crying as thoughts cloud my mind, I hurriedly pull off the drip from my hand and climb out of the hospital bed, ignoring the pain in my stomach. The door suddenly opens as I run towards it and an exhausted looking Panda King stares at me with wide eyes. I run pass him, trying to leave the room so I can find a doctor and find out what is happening. I am so confused. "Tina! Tina, please calm down." Panda says as he holds me in his arms, preventing me from leaving. He worriedly holds my hand. "You're bleeding. Please listen to me Tina and sit down. Let me sort your hand out." My body feels cold as I stare

Seeing Panda King via video call does not satisfy my heart. I miss being with him but to carry out our plan and get the evidence from Ciarra Lake, I have to sacrifice my time with Panda.Of course Hans is still angry about me going to see Panda but he has started talking to me again. I returned home and lied to my dad about having some gastric issue. I still can't tell him I am pregnant.I don't meet Panda for a few weeks. It's a day where I am uselessly lounging around the house when Panda video calls me. Smiling happily, I accept the call and gaze at his handsome face.He looks extremely excited about something as he grins widely. "I've done it Tina!"Confused, I raise my eyebrows, "Done what?""I finally got hold of the evidence Ciarra had. I have gathered all the CCTV footage from the house too. The kitchen footage is pretty interesting." He says.I
His Bodyguard Chapter 65
"Pan, is Ciarra really your wife now?" His sister Liana King asks as she pushes her blonde hair back. Liana has been worried lately. Ever since the ruined wedding, Ciarra Lake insisted and demanded to move into Panda King's mansion and live as his wife.Panda shrugs at his sister, "In her dreams.""You don't care for her, not even a little?" Liana asks curiously as she drinks the milk."No. I only love..." Panda hesitates. Will Liana get upset if Panda tells her the truth about Tin being a woman? He knows his sister has a crush on "him"."Who?" Liana asks with wide eyes. "Come on Pan, tell me." She begs."Someone." Panda says mysteriously. He doesn't want to upset his younger sister. She will find out soon anyway."What are you guys talking about? Shall we eat together?" Ciarra's annoyingly cheery voice says as she walks into the kitchen.
His Bodyguard Chapter 64
The dreaded day finally arrives where I have to leave Panda King. I shouldn't be feeling this unhappy and upset given that this is all my plan and Panda is helping me by willingly sacrificing himself. All the way through the ferry ride back to the mainland, I had held hands with Panda and slept on his shoulder, afraid of when I will be able to be this close to him again."Don't cry Tina." Panda hugs me to him as my tears fall out of my eyes. "It won't take long. I'll come to get you soon."I wrap my arms around his back and cry into his chest. Why does this man have the power to weaken me so easily?"It feels like a dream." I mumble against him, "The island.""Don't worry about me," Panda pats my back in comfort, "I'll get the evidence and put her behind bars.""Come back to me quickly." I say through tears, "If you don't hurry back, I might decide to get married to Hans."
