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
Arielle suddenly opened her eyes wide when she heard the loud knocking outside her room. She got up from the bed groggily to open the door for the person who was knocking as if there was a fire. In her hurry to open the door for the person outside, she forgot to put on a robe over her very thin and see-through nightie."What's the matter? Why are you knocking so—" The rest of what she was going to say got stuck in her throat when she saw that it was Gun who was knocking. She suddenly remembered what happened last night and didn't know how to face him.Just like her, Gun also seemed surprised to see her. She thought that maybe he remembered what they did last night."Is that how you act when you open the door to someone knocking?" Gun asked her after recovering from the surprise. Anger was now on his face, and the surprise was gone."What?" She suddenly became confused. She didn't understand what he meant."Look at your clothes. Very indecent," Gun said firmly before turning his back o
Arielle closed her eyes while they were on their way home. Her eyes were closed but she was not sleeping, just pretending to sleep. She was worried that Gun would ask her again why she did not wake up early that morning.Throughout the day, Gun asked her about that matter four times and she successfully avoided answering it four times. She didn't know why it was a big deal for him to answer his question when he didn't remember anything that night or if he was just teasing her. Maybe he was enjoying seeing her uncomfortable when he mentioned that question because she would remember what happened in the morning.Her pretense of sleeping did not last long when she felt a strong impact on the back of her car. If she had not been wearing a seatbelt, her face would have surely hit the car's dashboard."Someone deliberately hit the back of your car. Fasten your seatbelt. We are going to race," Gun replied before pressing the gas pedal firmly.She closed her eyes tightly and gripped the side
Arielle is struggling to hold back her tears as she sees her friend applying medication to Gun's wound on his arm. She blames herself for why he got injured. Gun is lucky that he was able to dodge the knife held by the man who attacked them, but what if he hadn't? The wound is surely deep and he could even die."Come back in three days to have your wound cleaned again," instructs Kim, her doctor friend who is treating Gun's injury. "Remember, don't wet the wound for now, okay?" she reminds him."Do I still need to bandage my wound? It's not that big," Gun asks in a complaining tone."It's needed so bacteria don't enter your wound," Kim quickly replied. After treating and bandaging Gun's wound, her friend approached her and pulled her to a corner, where Gun couldn't hear their voices. "His wound is still far from his intestines, Arielle. He won't die from just that kind of wound."Kim probably noticed the excessive worry on her face as she watched her treat Gun that's why she said thos
"I was scared of your bodyguard, girl. I thought he was going to beat me up earlier. He was staring too intensely. It's like he wanted to swallow me whole," Bret said exaggeratedly as they got into his car. She rode in his friend's car because she had left her car so that Gun could have a ride home."Don't worry. Gun probably won't punch someone without a reason," she replied to her friend while looking out the window."What's your plan, Arielle? Why did you send him home? He was right about what he said earlier. If it wasn't one group trying to kill you, maybe another group was waiting for you outside the hospital earlier. Your bodyguard is just worried about you."Arielle let out a deep sigh. "I'm going to fire him from being my bodyguard, Bret.""What? Are you crazy? Do you want to die early?" Bret commented with wide eyes when he heard what she said. When she didn't respond, Bret just sighed before speaking to her again. "C'mon, Arielle. If you have a problem, tell me. I'm here no
