Micah formally replied, "It's okay. I don't need to rest. I'll stand guard outside your door.""But I feel bad…" Sandra tried not to sound too eager and added, "You can protect me inside the room, too.""Okay."Micah was not interested in people from the entertainment industry, especially models like Sandra, who relied on their looks and sex appeal. He believed that no matter how attractive they looked or how great their figures were, they were merely playthings for the rich. Micah's ideal type was someone like Chelsey—quiet but talented. After taking her room card, Micah followed Sandra upstairs. When they arrived at the room, he stayed true to his words and stood guard outside the door.Sandra was guilty. She gracefully leaned against the door and gazed at Micah affectionately before saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cruz.""Don't worry about it. I'm here for work, not a vacation. You should go in, Ms. Scott. Don't worry, and have a good rest. I'll ensure you're safe," Micah r
Micah's shirt was soaked. As their bodies pressed tightly together, he could feel Sandra's softness.He refrained from looking down, but a blinding white blur remained within his peripheral vision. Micah suppressed his body's instinctive reaction and remained silent as he swam toward the pool's edge with Sandra in his arms. Sandra, on the other hand, deliberately struggled. Her legs also occasionally brushed against places they should not. Sandra blushed as she felt Micah's robust physique, her heart racing. She wished she could drag him into her room immediately and devour him completely. Wearing an icy expression, Micah brought Sandra to the pool's edge to let her climb out herself.However, she sat there and said coyly, "My leg still hurts. I can't walk."Without saying another word, he lifted her up and placed her on a lounge chair. Micah even thoughtfully brought Sandra a towel.She wrapped herself in the towel as Micah crouched down, asking in a low voice, "Which le
After swimming, Sandra returned to her room and excitedly called Chelsey. "He truly is innocent! His ears turned red when he saw me in swimwear. Haha! I'm starting to like him more. I must win his heart over!" Sandra declared. Chelsey chuckled. "Don't be too eager and scare him off. Be more reserved, alright?""Why didn't you remind me earlier?" Sandra sighed and added, "I went swimming this afternoon and pretended to drown."I manage to trick him into getting in the pool. But in the end, he was almost going to end the contract and leave because of my advances."Fortunately, I was smart enough to say I was simply evaluating his character. So, I managed to convince him to stay and continue protecting me."I think he's still a virgin. Do you believe it?"Chelsey found Sandra's antics amusing."You've only known Micah for a short time, and you've already figured out if he's a virgin, huh?"Sandra giggled with the phone in her hand before replying, "Don't you know who I am?
Sandra thought the production team was overly frugal. How could they expect anyone to eat just a few pieces of vegetables and a small portion of shredded carrots?Although she needed to maintain her figure, eating only vegetables would not give her energy.Sandra closed the box and ordered takeout on her phone. She wanted to eat crawfish, steak bites, grilled oysters, and grilled lamb chops. After ordering the food, she opened the door to find Micah eating the boxed meal. Sandra furrowed her brows, snatched away the food, and threw it in the trash. "Don't eat that," she said.Micah glared at her and questioned, "Are you out of your mind?" He was eating just fine, but she snatched it away and threw it out.Worried that Micah might get angry, Sandra awkwardly explained, "I've ordered takeout. Let's eat together later. "The food prepared by the production team is terrible. It's so bland. No one will feel full after eating it."Micah withdrew his gaze, replying indifferently
Chelsey agreed, "That's right. There are plenty of men out there. With your stunning looks, you can land any man you want. There's no need to feel upset over one guy."Sandra felt much better after venting to Chelsey. She then recounted her conversation with Micah to Chelsey. "I told Micah that every man likes me because of my looks and incredible figure, except him. I also asked why he disliked me. Guess what he said? "He actually replied, 'So what if you have a good figure and are pretty? Your behavior is simply despicable'. And that he has never seen a shameless woman like me. "He also mentioned that he would have terminated the contract and left if I weren't your friend. He doesn't want to see me anymore. This is so frustrating!"Chelsey comforted her, "Calm down, Sandra. Micah isn't close with you, so he doesn't know your character well. "Maybe he thinks you're fooling him. That's probably why he got upset. Don't rush it, okay? Take it slow."Let him discover that you
Owen Dodd, the director, was enraged when he saw Sandra. "Sandra, why are you so late? Look at the time. You haven't even done your makeup! What on earth are you doing?" Owen chided. Sandra's agent took her to dinner with Owen a few days ago. He had hoped to have a more meaningful conversation with Sandra after dinner. However, she turned him down and secretly recorded his requests.Sandra had tricked Owen. He clenched his teeth in frustration as he had failed to take advantage of her. To make things worse, he could not exclude Sandra from the show. Nevertheless, now that she was under his control, Owen was determined to be merciless.Sandra knew that Owen was up to no good. That was why she had hired a bodyguard to accompany her throughout the filming. Despite her pleasant smile, Sandra's thoughts were filled with vehement curses directed at Owen."Mr. Dodd, I won't bother with makeup. This way, it'll highlight the natural beauty of the other female guests. I'll head ov
Micah paid no heed to Owen. He dashed over to wrap Sandra in a thick towel.Her body had stiffened from the cold, her lips turned bluish-purple, and her face was drained of color."M-Micah… I'm freezing," Sandra said while looking at Micah with a pleading gaze. His heart raced as he quickly scooped her up. Micah held Sandra tightly, trying to warm her with his body heat. Curled up in his embrace, Sandra eagerly absorbed his warmth. Even through their clothes, she could feel his masculinity. Meanwhile, Owen remained yelling with a megaphone when Micah carried Sandra down the stage.He then headed straight to the parking lot.At that point, Sandra felt dizzy and could not think straight anymore. She had no idea where Micah was taking her. Suddenly, her body involuntarily convulsed. Micah, with his experience, immediately realized Sandra was suffering from hypothermia. Hence, he quickened his pace.If hypothermia were not promptly addressed, it would lead to death.Micah
A pang of fear shot through Sandra, startling her into alertness. "Your clothes are soaked, so I removed them. You're wearing mine," Micah explained.His clothes were too big for Sandra. They were as loose as a nightgown.Sandra looked up and blinked, her eyes filled with tears."Thank you for saving me, Micah."She was still weak, so her words came out faint. "You paid me, and protecting you is my job."As Micah spoke, his confidence visibly wavered. He released Sandra's hand, which had warmed up, and leaned against the seat.Sandra, on the other hand, slumped weakly against his chest. "Did you see my naked body?" Sandra asked coquettishly.Her question left Micah speechless. After holding back for a while, his ears turned red, and he sputtered, "I-I had no choice. Don't worry. I won't see you as a woman.""What do you see me as then?"Although Sandra appeared bold, deep down, she was innocent. She felt highly embarrassed because a man had seen her naked for the first
