Arielle's steps were heavy as she walked into her house, followed by Gun who looked very serious."Good evening, Ma'am Arielle. Am I going to prepare the dinner?" Emma asked her with a smile as she met her in the living room.She was not in the mood, so she did not answer her maid's question. The maid watched her with a puzzled look as she went up the stairs."What happened to Ma'am Arielle? Did she and Gun have another lover's quarrel?" Laura asked Emma.She was only halfway up the stairs when she heard what Laura asked Emma. She stopped climbing the stairs and turned to the two maids "Gun is just my bodyguard and we will never have a relationship, the LQ you're talking about will never happen, okay?" she said to them with a serious face they both fell silent. She saw Gun standing near the two maids, also looking at her. But his face was still blank, so she didn't know what he was thinking when he heard what she said.She gave Gun a sharp look before continuing her interrupted climb
While they were eating breakfast, Arielle and Gun were silent in front of the table. The two maids felt awkward, so they quickly finished eating. Arielle and Gun were left, both feeling uneasy. Gun was the first to break the silence and approach Arielle."Look, Arielle. I'm sorry for what I said to you yesterday. I'm just worried about your safety," Gun said after taking a deep breath.Arielle looked at Gun's face. She could feel the sincerity in his voice, so she didn't resist anymore. Moreover, it didn't look good that they weren't talking to each other when they were in the same house and always together. Not only them but also the people around them were affected."I'm sorry too. I was being sensitive, maybe because I'm going through menopause," she joked to lighten the mood. She also didn't have any reason to tell Gun why she suddenly lost her mood these past few days. It would be embarrassing to admit to him that the reason she was in a bad mood was because she thought that he w
Arielle had just woken up when she received a panic call from her secretary, Mely. Her secretary informed her that all the shareholders were in the meeting room and an emergency meeting was taking place. Tyron and Claire were also inside the meeting room. The board wanted to make Tyron the CEO and Claire the Vice-president.Mely did not know what to do, so she immediately called Arielle to inform her about what was happening in her company. Mely also told her that she was not allowed to enter the meeting to listen to their conversation.When Arielle heard the news, she didn't bother to take a bath and quickly got dressed in her office clothes and then called Gun as soon as she was ready. Fortunately, Gun was always an early riser and had already bathed, so he was ready to go as soon as Arielle came out of her room."What's the sudden rush, Arielle? You haven't even had breakfast or taken a bath yet but we're already heading to your office?" asked Gun as they were inside her car and on
"Arielle! Stop humiliating the board members! You should respect what decision they made," Tyron scolded her sternly."Stop humiliating them? Respect their decision? Am I a fool in your eyes, Tyron?" Arielle gave an insulting laugh at her ex-boyfriend. "I can see that your face is much thicker than those members of the board who were trying to place you in a seat that doesn't fit you, Tyron."Tyron's face suddenly flushed with anger and his gaze sharpened at her. "It's their decision and not mine, Arielle. During the years you've been the CEO, you've also relied on me. So you can't blame them for choosing me as the CEO instead of you," Tyron replied firmly, with a tone of insult in his voice."Tyron was right, Arielle. You are still running to him when it comes to decisions in the company even though you are the CEO. And the company will be better off if Tyron becomes the CEO," Claire also said, who is in favor of making her ex-boyfriend the CEO. Of course, the two of them will benefi
Without a word, Gun quickly kicked the man holding Arielle. The man's body was thrown and crashed against the wall. Arielle then hugged Gun tightly."Thank you for coming," she said in a weak voice."It's nothing," Gun replied."And what is a lowly bodyguard doing inside the meeting room?" Tyron spoke in an insulting tone to Gun. "Leave now if you don't want to be dragged out by the guards."Gun just smirked at Tyron. "You speak as if you're the owner of this company when you don't have even 1 percent of the shares. I really admired the thickness of your face, Tyron." Gun returned Tyron's insulting gaze. "And which guard are you going to call to drag me out? The guard outside who is now sleeping? Or that guard over there who is struggling to stand?"Tyron's fists were clenched and he couldn't speak. His eyes were almost spitting fire with anger at Gun."It's him! That man is the reason why she didn't accept Tyron's marriage proposal. Because she has a relationship with another man. Sh
When Tyron arrived at their house, he immediately started throwing away the things he saw with his own eyes. He was very furious at Arielle. The victory that was in his hands slipped away. But he was even angrier at her bodyguard. If Gun had not arrived and saved Arielle, that woman couldn't do anything. He should have been the new CEO of the company."What happened, Tyron? Why are you so angry?" his mother asked him in surprise."That shameless woman and her bodyguard sabotaged my plan to take over the company, Mom! Victory was in my hands but it slipped away!" The anger he felt now was so intense, and if Arielle were in front of him, he would surely have tried to kill her again."Who are you referring to, Tyron? Is it your ex-boyfriend and his handsome bodyguard?""Who else, Aunt? It's those two and no one else." Claire answered Tyron's mother's question. "But that man is not handsome. Your son is far more handsome than him, and that man is also arrogant," Claire added with a frown.
Arielle almost screamed when she woke up the next morning and saw Gun sitting on the edge of her bed, staring intently at her. She didn't know if he had been staring at her for a long time or if he had just entered her room."You gave me a shock, Gun. What are you doing in my room?" she asked him, pulling the blanket up to her chest. Luckily, she wasn't wearing a thin nightgown, so the man didn't see through her body."Your maids told me you didn't have dinner last night. And why didn't you change into your sleepwear?" He looked at the clothes she was wearing for office work. She hadn't been able to change her clothes last night because she was so tired. But when she woke up, she lost her mood to get dressed when she found out that Gun had left and gone to see his girlfriend, so she just went back to sleep."I'm too tired and sleepy to change my clothes last night," was her simple reply. She was waiting for Gun to come out of his room so she could wash her face and brush her teeth. Sh
"Where are we going, Gun?" Arielle asked as they rode in her car. After they had lunch, he pulled her out of the house and made her get into her car. He didn't even let her change her clothes before he dragged her out to wherever they were going. Luckily, she was always dressed properly even at home so she was always ready in case she needed to go out of the house."Relax. I'm not going to kidnap you," Gun joked, laughing as he saw her restlessness.She rolled her eyes at him and then crossed her arms in front of her chest. "What else are you doing? You've already kidnapped me."Gun sighed weakly and shook his head after what she said, then fell silent. Her brow furrowed when she saw where he brought her. To a famous amusement park."Let's go," he urged her as he parked the car properly."What are we going to do here?"Gun raised one eyebrow before answering. "What do people usually do in an amusement park?" he retorted. Before she could complain, she was already being pulled out of t
