My bodyguard is a Handsome Bum
Promise, trust, and love

Vander looked silent, his cold eyes staring at his fingers twirling his silver pen. The face that although calm but clearly shows an aura of anger on himself, until the overflow of unbearable emotions was finally vented on his silver pen that ended up broken in his own fingers.

"Now what should I do? That cunning woman tried to threaten me. And Lara, what about her current feelings when she learned of this rumor? And Rey, she loves Lara so much, what if she knew the news, she would be so disappointed in me."

The guilt of not knowing what to do makes Vander feel like a useless human being right now. "I have to finish this."

...🍁🍁🍁...

At this time Jeden who looks to be traveling to the city of RK, accidentally even listened to the radio news in the car about the rumors of the proximity of Vander and Emily. Hearing that Jeden who was curious, immediately asked the men who supported him to raise the volume of his radio.

"It's interesting news" he said after hearing the news on the radio.

The man immediately took to social media. Just as she expected, rumors of Emily and Vander's closeness are now one of the top topics most people talk about on news and entertainment sites. After hearing and seeing rumors of Vander's closeness to Emily, Jeden becomes increasingly convinced that Lara and Vander must have hidden problems in their relationship right now, but what? Jeden then thought, "Looks like I can take advantage of this moment to keep Lara away from that damn guy."

Jeden smiled as if he had a plan by exploiting this rumor. He then took the phone out of his pocket and called Cindy, his spy who also worked at Laizen.

Cindy: Hello, I don't have any new information. But you clearly know the news of Vander and Emily rumors that are being talked about?

Jeden: Yes I know that, therefore I want you to help me.

Cindy: Help what? Am I not helping you now by being a spy.

Jeden: Yes you are right, but this time I want you to do one thing

Cindy: What is it?

Jeden: I want you ...

Cindy: Are you crazy? No, I don't dare go that far, I can definitely be tracked by Laizen's IT team, and also you don't get me wrong, Mr. Vander was pretty tech-savvy he could easily find my IP address. I don't want to if I have to spread rumors with my ID, it's the same you sent me to the tiger's den.

Jeden: You take it easy, you just need to set up a social media account and make this rumor go wild. About your identity I already have a reliable hacker to protect your IP.

Cindy :'s :.... But I'm so afraid, sir, how about I get fired and even go to jail?

Jeden: I said take it easy, I guarantee you. Or if you don't want to neglect, I could have spread the pictures of you in that nude hotel to social media.

Cindy: Huh? D-what do you mean. K-you, how do you know me... (Cindy was immediately terrified to find out Jeden had a file of her photos that were in a hotel without clothes)

Jeden: So decide immediately. Do you want to, or not do what I ask?

Cindy: To be honest I didn't have the right to refuse from the beginning, did I?

Jeden: Yeah you should have known from the start, right?

Cindy: Sneaky you're Mr. Jeden!

Jeden: I'm not cunning Miss Cindy, but clever, I only think two steps ahead of you.

Cindy: Okay, but you promised to keep my identity!

Jeden: Take it easy, everything will be safe.

Finally inevitably, Cindy was forced to obey what was asked by Jeden to become anomim and spread rumors even worse about Vander.

Jeden immediately smiled, "After this the drama will be more exciting."

In the room, Lara who was working on her tasks did not seem too focused. He even repeatedly had to repeat print out data, due to many typos. In fact, Lara is still thinking about Emily's interview that she read this afternoon, even though so far Vander seems to love her so much and adores her so much, but a few years ago when he forgot his memory and did not remember Lara does not mean he has no relationship with other women right? Or maybe Vander once had a close relationship with Emily? Who knows.

Lara stared at Vander's desk, which was empty at the moment of the meeting. He then wondered, "Is it possible that a man as great as him for four years has never been in contact with any woman? I think it's impossible, where maybe there's no woman, he's handsome, rich, has everything, and— however I know he's a normal guy who has passion, how does he fulfill his high biological desire, if it is not related to women?" Lara sighed. "Thinking about all this makes my head heavy."

Lara finally decided to go to the pantry and make chamomile tea to calm herself down.

In the pantry Lara is seen sitting alone while thinking about all her doubts about the husband at this time. Of course it is natural for a wife to be suspicious and jealous, considering for four years she lived apart from her husband and had no communication at all. Plus the status of Vander who is a young billionaire and has a lot of charm, certainly many women around him. Because of her thoughts, Lara to the point of imagining that her husband had many concubines.

"No! it's not the imperial age anymore, where maybe she has a concubine! Gee whiz... Why the hell, because of Emily's interview I became like this!" Complain Lara while holding her two temples. "But if it was true that four years ago she had another woman, was it Emily? But— but I'm more beautiful than Emily, I also have given birth to her child, surely Vander would prefer me, right?" Lara began to feel uneasy, she was afraid that what she had imagined was true.

"No!" Screeched Lara. "Whatever I don't accept, even if they were ever close, I— I make sure Vander will choose me over that Emily. Because anyway Vander promised me that I'd be the most important woman in his life until the end." Lara tried to convince herself.

...🍁🍁🍁...

"Okay the meeting is over, all of you please get back to work" Vander said.

The top division officials went out of the room one by one, until left in the meeting room there was only Vander who had just finished signing the documents

"Is there anything else I need to sign?" Vander asked while giving the document to Robert who was standing by his side.

"No master, the next document is still being studied by the other sections, and Miss Lara. Oh, miss where is she now?"

"She's permission to take a break from Mira's coffee shop."

"Oh that Miracle shop, I heard that it has a very good coffee mix, have you tried it?"

"Not yet, maybe next time. For me the best coffee is still made by my wife" replied Vander.

"Master I'm amazed at you, because even though it looks cold and fierce when you are a superior, but behind it all turns out you are very romantic," said Robert.

Vander immediately smiled, "To me he's everything. I'll do anything for him and our son, that's my vow to myself."

"In addition to great leadership, you are also an amazing husband and father. And you're so loyal to Miss, you haven't even been in contact with any woman for the past four years."

"You keep praising me, want to ask for a raise?" taste Vander.

"Ah not so sir, it's just that...." During his four-year separation from Lara, Robert was a living witness who never saw his master have any relations with any woman. Even just releasing his biological desire he never did with any woman, even though he could have changed bedmates every night, but he did not do it. But in fact for the four years that Robert knew, Vander only chose to pay the woman who just accompanied him to drink after that he left the bar drunk.

"But if you may know, why are you sorry I know you're a normal guy and—"

"Yes, I'm normal, I have a high sexual appetite, but somehow with just my wife it just shows up. When I see another woman, I feel like I have no desire at all. I used to think for four years that I was abnormal, because I couldn't feel like my biological desires were arising. It was only when Lara came back, inexplicably the opposite, that I remembered her every moment, remembering her scent so willing to do it every time," said Vander to make Robert's face a little red with embarrassment.

"Eh but compared to me, you're more weird how can you be a dozen years old never again, you're normal right?"

"Ehem, I have since the bloody tragedy at Crux decided to devote my whole life to you master so I no longer care about desire, nor love of the opposite sex. Besides.my love is only for Mary, my late wife who died with my future son twelve years ago because she was killed by that devil man."

In fact Robert's wife and his future son had been murdered by Gauren's men at his behest. And after living with many burdens, at that time Vander came as a helper and a new hope for Crux and Robert, he decides to become Vander's loyal servant and takes revenge on Gauren.

"My life's goal right now is to serve you sir, because you gave me hope in life, because I know only you can finish off that barbaric man."

"You're right, one of our goals is the same, which is to finish off Gauren and his people to ashes."

...🍁🍁🍁...

Lara, who was seen stopping by Mira's coffee shop at lunchtime, was seen ordering a caramel macchiato. Although she does not like to drink coffee, but Lara really likes this caramel macchiato made by Miracle store. The name of the Mira coffee shop itself is deliberately named after the word Miracle which was once the name of the company owned by the late Lara's parents.

Sitting in front of the bar table while enjoying Caramel Macchiato, Lara seemed to waste her breath many times. Mira who as the owner and manager of the store immediately approached his friend and asked, "Hey lady why are you, it seems like the burden on your head is heavy?"

Lara was still silent, but as a person who knew Lara since childhood, Mira seemed to be able to guess what her close friend was worried about. "It was Emily's interview, wasn't it?"

"Yes, you're right."

"Why do you have to be so lethargic, isn't it obvious that the interview must be the result of the arrogant model's essay!" Tandas Mira's.

"But what if it's true? I mean, yeah you know that our Vander and I were four years apart and we didn't know each other at the time, maybe if it was Vander—"

"Oh come on, Lara, I can see how much Vander loves you, when you're fooled by the itchy woman's provocation anyway! Then you'll lose the fall. Remember, you're his legal wife while he's just a cocky model who likes to seduce people's husbands

You're prettier and more genuine than her anyway, so what are you worried about?" Mira tries to convince Lara.

If you think what Mira said is true, but anyway Lara is a woman there must be a sense of jealousy and overthinking, moreover, he did not know at all what happened to Vander four years ago.

"Don't think about it again, I'm sure your handsome, cash-strapped husband won't stay silent. And Lara, at a time like this you're supposed to press and ask her for proof."

"Here I whisper" Mira also whispers Lara a way to test Vander whether she really loves him or not.

"uh? At that time, isn't it then that I'm like a materialistic woman who's crazy about treasure?"

"Just believe me okay? Do what I tell you, and if he's willing to do it for you, it's certain his love is a thousand percent no, even a million percent. You have to remember, in a man's life there are only three temptations, namely Treasure, throne, woman. If you can get that guy to bend his knees at you then it's certain that he's making you the queen of his life."

Lara smiled in admiration looking at Mira.

"Why do you even smile at me like that?"

"No, it's just that I didn't expect that Miranda, who I knew from a long time ago, was flat, but about men, it seems like a real experience! Don't you and Gavin?"

"I-it.." Mira's face flushed red, she couldn't possibly say that in fact she was more dominant than Gavin when it came to relationships.

"Look at your face red," Lara immediately laughed amusedly. "Ah I know, you must be the more dominant type huh when it comes to relationships, right? Hayo just confess."

"Silence you're a child!" Miranda shy.

"Hey Mira, I'm more experienced than you about that, so just admit it," whispered Lara who immediately made Mira really embarrassed.

"So quiet!" The peckers are getting embarrassed.

"Haha... Mira-Mira, you are still innocent when discussing it, remember that my relationship business is more experience than you," said Lara joking.

...🍁🍁🍁...

Shortly afterwards came Lara who had just returned from her break. Seeing Lara has returned, Robert who is in the room was excused to leave their room.

"I'll excuse you, miss..."

Lara put down her bag and looked at her husband who was also looking back at her and smiled and said, "You're back, I think you'll be back in half an hour."

"It was wanted, but there's still a lot to do so come back sooner." Lara immediately remembers the advice from Mira about proving love. He wanted to but hesitated to do so.

Oh my God, why worry like this. Come on Lara you can!

Finally Lara sighed and walked over to her husband.

"What's wrong? You want to say something Miss Lara?" Vander asked with a smile staring awkwardly at Lara who instead looked the opposite.

"Master no, I mean Vander, I want to talk to you."

"Sure, just say it."

Lara exhaled again and then said out loud, "Vander did you really not have a relationship with Emily or any other woman when we parted?"

Vander flinched then chuckled.

"Why am I laughing?"

"You end up asking her so tense, usually if you're serious you're going to overshadow"

Lara suddenly sits on Vander's desk and pulls out her husband's tie. With a sharp look she brought her face closer to her husband and asked, "You've really never had a relationship with Emily, have you?"

"You think?" Reply Vander calmly.

"Mr Vander I asked so don't even ask back,"

"If I said yes or no, which one would you believe more?"

Lara fell silent and let go of her hand from Vander's tie. His eyes that had been sharpening now instantly turned sad full of worry. "I don't know, after reading Emily's interview, I got nervous, worried, and scared. I was like in a dimensional threshold, half my mind trying to believe Emily's words, but my heart said otherwise. I'm afraid you—"

Vander clasped his wife's hands together, looked at her gently and said, "I don't know what to answer, I don't want to say as if to force you to trust me. Because believe it or not, it's entirely your right, all I can do is be sure and prove it to you. But even if you still don't believe it, I just need to do more, more, and better, until I'm finally worthy of your trust."

"Van—"

"Listen, I'm just an ordinary guy. I'm not perfect, but I always feel great when you're with me and counting on me. So Lara, if I may ask you, would you stay with me at least let me try to be worthy and can you trust me to stay with you?"

As Lara's eyes glazed over Vander's words, she came straight down from the table she was sitting at and hugged her husband. "Yes, I want to be with you always. I'll give you a chance to always be by my side. I love you, Vander, I'm sorry I doubted you..." She hugged Vander while sitting on her husband's lap.

Not wanting his wife to cry for a long time, Vander immediately wiped Lara's tears and kissed her forehead. Eventually Lara stopped crying.

Wiping her tears Lara said, "But you have to keep your promise to me."

"Promise?"

"Yes..." Lara stroked her husband's cheeks and said, "You promised me that I was the only woman who could have your heart, your mind, and your body."

"Without being asked, I will give up all my life for you, dear" said Vander, smiling.

Lara's face immediately blushed in embarrassment seeing her husband smiling so sweetly at her. "You cheat, you always have a charm to make me melt," murmured Lara.

Vander laughed amusedly. "It's been a long time not seeing Miss Lara crumble."

"uh? Do you remember my face?"

"Um— actually, these days I feel that the memories of the past often suddenly appear in my mind, and so I'm sure, a little bit of my memory of us in the past will definitely be back intact."

Lara smiled and teharu. "Thank you for not throwing away our memories completely."

"I won't throw it away." The man also kissed the blushing lips of his wife.

"Oh yes Vander, there's actually one more thing I want to say. Um— might sound a little bad, but I want to say."

"What?"

"You said you'd do and give anything for me, right?"

"Yes, then?"

"If I asked for all the wealth you have, would you give me?"

Vander stared silently at Lara as if confused.

"Ah yeah actually I didn't mean it but Mira said—"

"I'm taking care of it."

"Huh?"

"Before you ask, I did intend and decided to give all my property and assets in your name. Ever since I found out you're my wife I asked Robert to take care of her. But it might take some time because my assets are so many." Vander then joked, "So you don't have to be afraid that I'm cheating, that's going to fall poor it's me."

Lara looked at Vander deeply, she no longer knew what to say to the man she was with at the moment. "Vander if there's a great and wonderful husband award, then it's worth pinning on you, even you're more than great."

"I don't need that award, all I need is Lara who always loves me and accompanies me under any circumstances."

"Vander I love you, very, very and forever."

"I know."

They also kissed warmly.

..."I believe choosing to love and be loved by Vander is the best choice and the most beautiful destiny of my life."...

..."I might be like a fool willing to be a slave to a woman's love. But it doesn't matter, as long as she's Lara I'll be willing to look stupid."...
