The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 21. Who is Prince Actually?
"Prince," Emily shook her bodyguard's arm, "answer me. What’s your real name? Are you Cayden?" Prince remained silent. His eyes fluttered. "Answer me, Prince. Who are you? Are you Cayden?" Emily's voice became more and more stressful. Suddenly, Prince let out a laugh. "You think of me as Cayden again? Do you expect your first love to be as handsome as me?" "I'm not joking, Prince! If you weren't Cayden, it’s impossible for you to know about that promise." Seeing Emily's red eyes, Prince returned his serious expression. He regretted trying to divert the conversation with a joke. "Sorry if I disappoint you, Miss Harper. But, I knew it from you. You told me that promise yourself." "No! I never told you!" "Yes," Prince nodded with a deeper gaze. "You mentioned it when you were delirious last night. You kept asking why Cayden still hasn't kept his promise." Emily sighed in disbelief. She wondered why Prince was still in denial. "I haven't been delirious since I was 10 y
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 22. Don't Bite Me
"I'm sorry." Prince's tongue felt numb. "I just wanted to cheer you up. Do you still want to continue the mission now?" Emily glanced cynically. "Of course. I'll see Sky, ask her where Cayden is. As soon as she points at you, I'll strangle you until you run out of oxygen." Prince no longer replied. He just sighed, pressing the gas pedal deeper. He didn't know that his attitude was actually making Emily even more annoyed. Upon arrival at their destination, Prince opened the car door for Emily. He offered his hand as usual. However, Emily did not accept his kindness. She got out by herself, still with an annoyed expression. "If you're not Cayden, don't care too much about me," she muttered curtly. Prince could only sigh in resignation. However, seeing where Emily was going, he quickly closed the door and chased after her. "Miss Harper." Emily didn't answer. "Miss Harper!" "What?" Emily turned around with wide eyes, making Prince's breath spontaneously hitched. "Her h
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 23. Important Clue
"Dear Emily, Sorry I'm avoiding you again. I actually want to meet you too, but later. Not now. There are still things I have to take care of. Once everything is finished, I will see you again. So please, don't follow me anymore. Go home. Poor Louis if you run away like this. Then about Cayden, if I may give you advice, don't wait or look for him again. You should open your heart to another man." Emily sighed in disbelief. Annoyance rose in her eyes. "Did Louis pay her to convey this message? How could Sky agree with him? She's the one who has always supported me the most with Cayden," Emily grumbled. Prince, who had been peeking, quickly straightened his back again. His breath was heavy, his fists tightened. He was now convinced of what Sky had found. "Madame, is it true that Sky wrote this? This is not like her." Emily leaned forward, shaking her head without any doubt. "I'm sorry if you're disappointed, Mademoiselle. But that's her message." "Where is she?" The
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 24. Another Possibility
"What are you talking about? You are my bodyguard. As long as this mission isn't over, of course you have to go wherever I go. Besides, I won't let you escape. When I meet Cayden later, I will throw you in front of him. He must teach you a lesson because you have pretended to be him," Emily said curtly. Prince turned wide-eyed. "I'm not pretending. It's you who assume that I—" "So, do you have a NZ visa or not?" Emily interrupted. Prince's lips pursed. "What a coincidence, I was there last year. My visa is still valid." Emily's eyes widened. Last year, she also went to NZ. Not wanting to add to assumptions, she got up from the chair. "Then, let's go. Don't waste time. The journey will be quite long, and my time is limited." Before Emily could take a step, Prince grabbed her arm. "Do you want me to carry you again?" Emily's eyes widened. She didn't expect Prince to dare to tease her. "You think I'm a child? I allowed you to carry me because my leg is injured. Now I can wa
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 25. Too Reckless
"Prince, do you have a brother?" Emily asked in a low voice. Prince's eyebrows rose. His body froze for a moment. It was as if he didn't expect the question to come. But after one blink, he snorted. "You're digging up information about me again? Are you that curious about me?" "Don't beat around the bush. Just answer what I ask." "I'll answer if you're willing—" Suddenly, Emily slammed her hand on the dashboard. Prince gasped. "Why do you always change the subject every time I ask about your family? Is it difficult to answer my questions?" Prince's lips pursed. His expression was innocent. "I'm not the type of person who likes to share personal information. If you want to know a lot about me, you have to get close to me first. Are you willing to be that special person?" Emily snorted. One of her cheeks twitched. "So you won't tell me?" Prince shook his head slowly. Seeing that, Emily felt tired. Very tired. There were too many mixed feelings in her heart. "Then don't
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 26. Emily's First Kiss
"Miss Harper? What's wrong? Miss Harper?" Prince was confused when he saw Emily running while covering her mouth. Without waiting for an answer, he ran, chasing her to the front of the toilet. "Miss Harper? Are you okay?" Prince knocked. Apparently, the door was not closed tightly. Worried that something bad would happen to Emily, he went in. Inside, Emily was coughing. Occasionally, she spat. Her hand which was gripping the water bottle seemed to be shaking, afraid. "Miss Harper, what happened? Is there something strange in your food?" Prince touched her shoulder. Emily hurried to wipe her mouth. "Shrimp .... There's shrimp in those balls." While Emily gargled, Prince froze. "Are you allergic to shrimp?" he whispered when he came to a conclusion. Emily nodded. "Are your reactions usually severe?" Prince studied Emily's face more closely. "I was rushed to the emergency room when I was two years old," the girl answered before smacking her mouth. "Oh, why does it stil
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 27. Deeper Kiss
"You don't want to sleep yet?" Prince asked making Emily even more nervous. "N-not yet. I still have a lot of work to do and I'm not sleepy. You just sleep first." Emily glanced shyly. Prince sighed faintly. "Good. That way, we can take turns being on guard. Wake me up when you want to sleep." Emily's awkwardness was suddenly replaced by astonishment. "Isn't it safe here? Why are we taking turns on guard?" "Better to stay alert. Don't let your guard down, understand? Wake me up if there's anything suspicious." Emily nodded slightly. Then, while Prince got into a lying position, she pretended to focus on her tablet. Only after the man closed his eyes did she dare to turn her head. "How could he be so casual? Did the incident just now have no impact on him? Is it because he often kisses—touches girls' lips?" Emily thought, a little annoyed. While pondering, her eyes fell on Prince's lips. Her hand unconsciously moved to touch her own lips. The moment when their lips connec
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 28. Cross the Line
"You know what?" Prince whispered between seductive gasps. "I've tried to restrain myself as best I can, but you keep pushing me to cross the line." Emily replied softly. "What's holding you back from approaching me? What makes you hesitate?" Prince looked into Emily's gray eyes with a sad look. His thumb stroked her cheek gently. "Can you be patient?" Emily snorted. Looking away, she brushed Prince's hand off her arm. "Why do you keep asking me to be patient? I'm tired, Prince. I can't hold back my curiosity any longer. Why don't you just admit that you are Cayden?" Prince gritted his teeth. "I can't. I'm not—" "You're Cayden, right?" Emily insisted with her most serious expression. Prince sighed heavily. "Sorry, Miss Harper. Please don't think of me as Cayden." Feeling annoyed, Emily threw a punch at Prince. Several times she hit the broad chest. However, her anger only overflowed. "Then why did you dare kiss me if you're not Cayden? Why? You like playing with me

The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard Extra Chapter 3. The Best Experience
At a height of 186 meters from the road, Emily's eyes lit up. The room she had just entered had glass walls. The view of Auckland city was beautifully displayed behind it. "Welcome to the tallest tower in NZ, Uncle and Auntie. This tower is an icon of Auckland city, built in 1994 with a total height of 328 meters. From this floor, you can enjoy a 360° view of the city. Your dinner will definitely be very romantic and impressive," Summer explained enthusiastically. Emily smiled sweetly. While embracing Cayden's waist, she whispered, "We didn't choose the wrong guide." Then, she looked back at Summer. "Thank you, Little Guide. I really like this place." Summer smiled. A sense of pride filled her heart. While putting her hands on her hips, she nodded firmly. "Then, enjoy your dinner, Auntie. Please take a seat at the table we have prepared especially for you. After you are finished, Mama and I will return." "Where are you going? Aren't you having dinner?" Sky shook her h
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard Extra Chapter 2. Honeymoon
"Uncle Cayden! Aunt Emily!" Summer greeted as the newlyweds exited the arrival gate. Her hand holding a piece of cardboard swung. Cayden and Emily's names stuck on it were almost scattered in the air. When Emily waved back at her from a distance, the toddler's laughter echoed. Her feet bounced happily. However, seeing how the newlywed walked, her joy turned to surprise. "Oh, Mama? What's wrong with Auntie's legs? Why is she walking like that?" Hearing her daughter's remark, Sky flinched. The curve of her lips froze. "I don't think there's anything wrong with Emily," she denied hesitantly. "No, Mama. Auntie doesn't usually walk like that. She just looks weird. Are her legs still sore from standing so much at her wedding last week? Or maybe, the dress was too heavy, so her legs were tired?" Sky grimaced. "Summer, how about we stop talking about that? Emily is a perfectionist. Her mood will be ruined if she knows someone thinks she's weird. Don't you want to provide the best ho
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard Extra Chapter 1. The First Night
"My Prince, are you sure you won't regret coming back here, to my family's house? We can still rent a hotel for our first night if you want," Emily whispered as Cayden carried her to their room. Cayden laughed softly. His breath tickled her ear. "Isn't this our house too? What's wrong with coming back here?" "There's nothing wrong. It's just," Emily lowered her head to hide her embarrassment, "my parents and siblings live here too. Is it okay if we do it near their rooms?" "We'll do it in our own room, Emily. They can't peek. Besides, we've discussed this before, right? You don't mind." Cayden secretly felt amused with his wife. Emily winced a little. "Yes, I did. But at that time, I didn't think this far." "How far?" Cayden raised an eyebrow. Now they had arrived upstairs. Seeing their bedroom door, Emily's heart raced. She swallowed hard. "I didn't take into account of the distance between our rooms and the direction of the soundwave. We're only one wall away fro
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 108. Winning in Life
"Be happy in your new life, Emily. Don't cry anymore," Louis whispered. "I'm not a crybaby anymore, Louis," Emily replied. "Really? But you are crying now." Louis checked her eyes. "You're crying too." Louis shook his head. "I'm not crying. My eyes are just exposed to air conditioning." While Emily let out another laugh, a WO staff came over. "Mr. Harper, time for action." Emily was stunned to see the lemon plushie that the staff gave Louis. "Why is Yemon here?" Louis smiled mischievously. "Isn't he your favorite? He would be sad if he missed your special moment. So, he has to play a part too." "What part?" Louis took the ring box out of his pocket. After shaking them for a while, he put both rings into Yemon's secret pocket. "His magic bag always comes in handy," he winked. Emily sighed in disbelief. When Louis put on his sunglasses and went on errands, she could only shake her head in amazement. Her twin brother was always full of surprises. As soon as Louis e
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 107. Emily's Wedding
"What if we fulfill the promise that was postponed?" Emily whispered, making Cayden raise an eyebrow. "You mean NZ?" As Emily nodded, Cayden smiled. He looked at the phone. "Would you mind visiting the glow worms in the cave again, Summer?" he asked. "Uncle and Auntie, do you want to honeymoon in NZ?" Summer's voice grew lighter. Receiving nods from the bride and groom-to-be, laughter filled the air. "I like that option. Uncle and Aunt can take photos with the glowing worms. Then, I will take you to explore the north and south islands. We can do rafting, bungee jumping, hiking. We can do all the fun things together. I mean, you and Uncle Cayden while Mama and I. We'll do it together but separately!" Emily smiled sweetly at the thought of the excitement. "Oh, I can't wait for the honeymoon." "Just get married first, think about the honeymoon later," Sky said, amused. "But, I hope you won't regret choosing Summer as your guide." "Why should they regret, Mama? I am a
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 106. Summer's Condition
When Louis was interrogated, Emily rushed into the car. She couldn't wait to contact Alice via a video call. Her heart had not been calm since the police said that Sky and Summer had missed their flight. "Mrs. Hills?" Her feelings became even more chaotic when she saw Alice in the hospital. "What happened? Where are Sky and Summer? Why didn't they fly here?" Alice smiled slightly. "I'm sorry that my daughter and granddaughter had to cancel their appointment. Something happened earlier, but don't worry. The critical phase is over." Emily gasped. "Who is critical?" "Summer. Someone gave her almond milk at the airport. Her allergies flared up, and her epipen suddenly disappeared. Luckily, Sky took her to the medical room in time. Now she's being treated in the hospital." Emily covered her mouth with one hand. Her chest was tight. Her tears almost spilled. Cayden, who had just gotten into the car, widened his eyes when he saw her. Holding her shoulder, he whispered, "What's wr
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 105. A Hero
"How dare you hurt my future wife?" Cayden rebuked with burning hatred. Seth met Cayden's gaze with sharper eyes. His jaw throbbed. He was furious that none of his plans went smoothly. "Why is fate never on my side? Why?" Desperate, Seth finally pulled a gun out of his pocket. Seeing that, Cayden and Emily gasped. "Hey? Please don't be careless. Your punishment could be heavier if you kill us with a weapon," Cayden said while raising one hand in front of him. Seth's laughter became increasingly sinister. "Do you think I care? What's the difference between killing you with a stick, poison, or a bullet? They're all the same. They all can send you to hell!" Seth pointed a gun at Emily. His finger was ready to pull the trigger. Witnessing that, Cayden swallowed hard. He was too far to protect Emily. Now, he could only hope that Seth would just aim at him. "Do you think it's that easy to send us to hell? We are good people. Even if we die, we will go to heaven. You are the on
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 104. Emily in Action
Cayden jerked his body. He tried to get up from the chair. Unfortunately, the rope that tied him was too strong. "You coward! Your opponent is me, not Emily. Why do you keep involving her in our affairs, huh? Let her go!" Emily could only sigh in pity at her hiding place. Meanwhile, Seth, who had been silent for a while, was now laughing out loud. "Do you think my threats have been a joke all this time? Destroying you is my purpose in life. I will never stop until you get what you should get. Glen ...." Seth glanced at his partner in crime. "Let the show begin." "Okay, Bro." The man in the janitor uniform turned his laptop. Cayden's breath became louder and rougher. Meanwhile, Seth sat on a sofa. He was ready to witness Cayden's anger. His evil smile kept growing until Glen's eyebrows furrowed, and Cayden's face turned confused. "Hey!" Seth exclaimed, his eyes widened. "Is this a paused show? Come on, vent your anger! You don't mind your future wife having fun with ano
The Heiress' Mysterious Bodyguard 103. Tied to a Chair
After getting out of the elevator, Emily immediately approached the security guard. She explained the incident briefly, then asked where the CCTV room was. The security team immediately took actions. Several of them secured the impostor. Others started searching the area. The rest escorted Emily to the CCTV room. "How is it?" Emily asked when her patience ran out. The people there were working too slowly. "Sorry, Miss. All the CCTVs on the 3rd floor were off. We checked the CCTVs on the other floors. There was nothing suspicious." "What about the emergency stairs?" "Sorry, Miss. There's no CCTV in that area." Emily grimaced. "What about the parking lot in the basement? You can't possibly leave that area unmonitored, right?" The security guard checked the monitor again. Before he had time to find a clue, his colleague spoke up. "Miss, I found something odd." Emily shifted to another monitor. Two men are pushing a trolley of rubbish. "Could Cayden be inside one of th
