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
Arielle couldn't help but feel jealous as Gun was talking to his girlfriend, whose name was Amanda. He was probably explaining to the woman why they were together now, as his girlfriend didn't know that he had become her driver-bodyguard. It meant that the woman's father was not Gun's boss. Because if Amanda's father was Gun's boss, it would be impossible for her not to know that Gun had left as her dad's driver.She had already felt bored after almost fifteen minutes of waiting for Gun and Amanda who were still talking, but the latter didn't seem to have any intention of letting the man go. The hunger she had felt earlier had already passed. She was no longer in the mood to eat, she decided to just go back inside the car.She became more annoyed when she couldn't open the door. She forgot that Gun had locked the doors when they went out and he had the key to her car."Arielle? Arielle Simpson?" A man's voice behind her called her name.She turned and frowned when she saw a tall and h
Arielle and Gun continued their plan to eat at the seafood restaurant after Bret left. She was in a good mood again, and the reunion with her former friend helped a lot to restore her good mood. Meanwhile, Gun still seemed to be in a bad mood. She was curious about what he and Amanda had discussed so he was still in a bad mood.They finished eating until it was time to go home, but Gun still didn't say a word. She was starting to get annoyed with him again. This girlfriend of his must be really important to him, and that's why it was not easy for him to let his woman get mad at him."Why are you so silent, Gun? You haven't said a word since earlier. Did your girlfriend get mad and want you to quit your job?" she couldn't help but ask Gun. The silence around them was too awkward and she was irritated because it was happening because of that woman."Yes," Gun's brief response, after which he fell silent again as if he had no further intention to speak. This only served to increase her i
"I didn't expect that you would visit me today, Bret. We just saw each other yesterday and here you are," Arielle said with a smile as she hugged her friend. Gun was the one who opened the gate when Bret rang the doorbell because the two maids were both busy doing something and he happened to be outside, rechecking the area around her house. He always does this a few times a day when he's at home. This is to make sure that no suspicious person is lurking around the house."Of course, we didn't get to talk properly yesterday, so I came to visit you right away," Bret replied with a smile in his full, baritone voice.She chuckled softly at how he exaggerated his voice. The two maids were peeking out the window while looking at them, so he made his voice sound very masculine so that the two, including Gun who was standing near them, wouldn't realize that Bret was gay and not a real man.She approached and brought her mouth close to his ear and whispered softly. "Don't pretend, Bret. What
"Wow! You're very gorgeous and sexy, my friend!" Bret said to Arielle as he took off her bathrobe, revealing the yellow two-piece swimsuit she was wearing. "If I wasn't like you, I'm sure I would have fallen in love with you and courted you," he added with a laugh."Well, I'm so glad that we are the same in heart because if you were a real man and courted me, you would have been rejected right away," she replied, laughing at him."Ouch! Why? Is it because of him?" Bret secretly gestured towards Gun's location.She no longer needed to look at who he was referring to because there was no other man around except Gun and when she came down from her room, she saw her bodyguard standing near the swimming pool."Yes," she answered without hesitation."So what's the score between the two of you? Is there a mutual understanding going on?" Bret teased her.She first dived into the water and approached Bret before answering his question. "Nope. He already had a girlfriend. And I think he loves h
Arielle gently shook Gun's shoulder to wake him up."Gun. Wake up. Why are you sleeping here in the living room?" she asked the sleeping man. She shook him several times but he wouldn't wake up. It seemed he had drunk a lot, making it difficult to rouse him. "Why did you get drunk? What if Tyron happened to come in tonight and tried to kill me again? I'm sure he would have succeeded in his evil plan."She couldn't help but feel annoyed but she wasn't angry at him. She stood up and checked each window and door to make sure they were locked. Her annoyance faded when she saw that no windows or doors had been left open. Probably Gun had checked them thoroughly before drinking."Uuh." He let out a soft moan in response to her."Gun. Wake up. You should sleep in your room, not here. It's cold in the living room and you'll get stiff lying here." Gun's body was huge and his legs were long, so he definitely couldn't move properly on the narrow sofa.Gun moaned again and didn't open his eyes. H
"Yes. I will marry you, Gabriel," Arielle said tearfully, accepting Gabriel's marriage proposal. Why would she play hard to get when she truly wanted to marry him and become his wife?Gabriel's face lit up with immense joy upon hearing her answer. He embraced her tightly and lifted her, spinning her around in his happiness.After they were certain that Tyron and Claire could no longer escape the charges they filed against them, they decided to get married. Arielle was overjoyed because she was finally going to marry Gabriel. A day before her wedding to Gabriel, she suddenly remembered her parents' cellphone. With everything that had happened, she had forgotten about the phone she had sent for repair. She left her house and went to the cellphone repair shop."I thought you weren't going to get your phone back, Ma'am. I couldn't contact you because I lost the contact number you gave me," said the owner, sounding embarrassed. "It's okay, boss. I also forgot to pick up the phones becau
"Gabriel Adamson! What are you doing in my house?" Tyron angrily asked Gabriel, who responded with a strong punch to Tyron's stomach. The man kneeled on the floor while coughing. Gabriel's men, Harold, Tres, Dos, and Six quickly beats Tyron's men and throw them outside the house.Gabriel approached her and immediately untied her then hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry. I'm almost late. I almost lost you again."She hugged him tightly as well. She cried on his chest, not out of fear, but out of the joy of seeing him again. She missed him so much, but she was holding herself back from showing up in front of him again after her surgery. She wanted to be done with what she needed to do before facing Gabriel again."How did you know I was here?" she asked as she released herself from Gabriel's arms."It's Mr. Sanchez who told me you were going to come here to chase some dogs inside your house," he replied with a smile."Are you and Arielle acquainted, Gabriel Adamson?" Tyron asked Gabriel in d
When Arielle left Gabriel's house she first rented a small condo unit, then she arranged her documents to go abroad. With her money and the help of her Uncle Edgar, she quickly arranged her passport and US visa. After almost a month of waiting, she flew to America to have her face restored through plastic surgery.She chose to have the surgery from a famous plastic surgeon. And two weeks after arriving in America, she underwent an operation. The operation on her face lasted four hours. When she woke up, her entire face was wrapped in bandages.After two weeks, the doctor removed the bandage from her face. She cried when she saw that the appearance of her face had been restored. Even the small trace of the large scar on her face was gone, so she was extremely grateful to the doctor who operated on her face.After the bandage was removed from Arielle's face, she waited another month before returning to the country. And upon her return, her Uncle Edgar had a nice surprise for her. He had
Arielle woke up and Gabriel was no longer by her side. She smiled sweetly as she remembered their passionate lovemaking. However, the smile faded and was replaced by worry, as she feared that Gabriel might think she gave herself to him too quickly since they had just met. He might think that she was an easy-to-great woman.She admitted that she thinks Gabriel is a Gun and the latter not just didn't remember her. They had known each other for a long time, so she didn't hesitate to give herself to him a second time. She thought that the two were just one person. She took a deep breath and tried to remove the worries she felt from her mind.She got up from the bed and looked at the time on the wall clock. It was only 4 in the afternoon. She thought it was already night but it wasn't.She got down from the bed and went to the bathroom to take a bath. She didn't bother to put on the clothes she had taken off because she was alone in her room. She was happy that the pain in her foot did not
Arielle admitted the whole truth to Gabriel about the secret she was hiding. She didn't hide anything except the part where her mind time-traveled to the past while she was unconscious. She thought he would get mad at her because she lied to him, but his face only darkened after learning everything, and he carried her back into her room."Don't move. I'll just get some ice and medicine so your foot won't swell up too much and the pain will go away," Gabriel said to her before leaving the room. He was only gone for a few minutes, and when he returned, he was carrying a tray with a glass of water, medicine, and two ice packs. "Here. Take this medicine to reduce the pain."She was like an obedient child who followed what Gabriel told her without complaint."Won't you fire me because I lied to you, Boss?" she couldn't help but ask after she took the medicine.From her feet where the icepack was applied, Gabriel's serious face rose to her face. "Why? Do you want me to chase you out of my h
Arielle ran quickly towards the stairs and as she was running, she put her cellphone in the pocket of the pants she was wearing."Come back, Arielle!" she heard Tyron's voice as he chased her.She did not look back and just kept running down the stairs. But unfortunately, her right foot suddenly stumbled when she was on the fifth step from the bottom. She screamed as she rolled down the stairs.Even though she was hurt from falling down the stairs, she quickly got up. But she suddenly sat down because the pain in her right foot, the one she slipped on, was searing. She was worried that Tyron might be close by, so she looked up the stairs. But when she turned the stairs, she was met with a strong slap from Tyron's hand, who had apparently approached her. The force of his slap made her sit on the floor."Did you think you could escape us, Arielle? You're mistaken! Because we won't let you leave with the video of Tyron and me on your phone," said Claire as she walked down the stairs. She
Arielle woke up early that morning and took a bath before going out of the room and then went down to the living room. She thought she was the first to wake up, but that was not the case because she was already on the third step of the stairs when she saw the man sitting in the living room, reading the newspaper while drinking coffee. The stairs in Gabriel's house are circular, so she doesn't see him sitting in the living room right away.She slowly turned around to go back upstairs, but Gabriel saw her and his forehead wrinkled when he saw that she was planning to go back upstairs."Did you forget something upstairs?" Gabriel asked her. She slowly turned around again to face him and smiled slightly while shaking her head. "Come here," he ordered her.She nervously walked towards Gabriel. Luckily, she had applied concealer on her scar before going out in her room, so he didn't see her big and ugly scar again."What will be my job, Boss?" she asked him as she approached him."Sit down,
Arielle was brought by Gabriel to his very large house. When she got out of his car, she realized that it was not only Harold who was always with him, but also six other muscular men who got out of the car and followed them. "Are they your men?" she asked Gabriel as she looked at the six men standing beside the car, seemingly waiting for Gabriel to go inside the house. "If you want to work in my house, then don't ask too many questions," Gabriel replied to her with a serious expression before walking into the house. "Our boss, Harold, is so grumpy. I was just asking a question, and he got angry right away," she said irritatedly to Gabriel's driver. Harold laughed when he heard what she said, and even the six men working for Gabriel couldn't help but laugh. "That's just how the Boss is, but he's kind and generous," Harold replied with a smile. "Right, guys?" he asked his six companions. "Harold is right, Miss Arielle. Our Boss is kind even though his face is always serious a
Arielle went back to the cellphone repair shop to pick up her parents' phones that she had brought in. She couldn't wait to know what had happened to the cellphones so she went into the repair shop even if the owner of the shop hadn't called her.This time, she no longer had to check if the mother and daughter were downstairs or in their room so she could escape because, after the confrontation, the two women had been avoiding her, which was better for her to move around freely."I'm sorry for coming to your shop even though you haven't called me yet. I was just too anxious to know if the phones were already fixed or not," Arielle apologized to the shop owner."I'm sorry but I haven't fixed your cellphone yet, Ma'am. I'll just call you when it's okay," the shop owner replied shyly.She felt a mix of sadness and disappointment when she heard what the man said. She could do nothing now but wait for the cellphone to be fixed. And she hoped it would be fixed as soon as possible so she cou
