My bodyguard is a Handsome Bum
My life is not for the past

Vander is visiting Aron at an antique shop where his friend works.

"Tumben once you've been here?" concluded Aron who looks to be wiping one by one the antiques of his sale.

Van then sat on one of the antique iron chairs that had a store owned by his friend. Not wanting to be trite, he immediately went to the point of asking Aron about the incident in the hotel ballroom of the Roosevelt that night.

"You want to ask me how do I know Eva was the mastermind of that night's chaos, right?"

"Yes!"

"On that, actually..." Aron immediately told everything he knew to his friend.

"So you're still in touch with them?" With a serious look on his face, Van sat up while propping his chin with fingers hooked together.

"Sometimes, it's because there are some Crux members who are customers in my store" Aron explained.

"And you know what purpose Eva came to this town for?"

"Not yet, if that's the case I'm a little hard to get the info." It is difficult for Aron to break through the wall of information limitations, considering Eva herself one of the members who is quite close to lord Gauren the leader of Crux itself.

"You know for yourself, Mr. Gauren is only close to a handful of people in Crux, and one of them is you!"

Vander could only stare a wry smile in response to Aron's words just now.

"Oh yeah Van there's something I want to ask you about Eva."

Vander glanced sharply at Aron.

"I wonder if between you and Eva there's any unfinished business?"

"Why are you asking me that?"

"Just want to know, because I saw Eva's motive for looking for you not only because Mr. Gauren asked, but there was something else. What does this have to do with Nagisa?"

Vander got up from the chair and breathed. "It's all in the past, Nagisa she's calm up there."

"Do you still love Nagisa?" Search Aron.

Van was half laughing. "Nagisa does have a special place in my heart. But my life right now is not for the past." For Vander at the moment there is no woman other than Lara, who can fill his whole heart and mind.

"Well, Ron, then I'll go first," Without any trite Vander immediately left the antique shop.

In his room Lara who is now sitting leaning back in her work chair while holding her temple looks exhausted. The incident in the meeting room earlier, was really like a hard slap for him.

Looking at the board of directors and the coconut division, blatantly doubting its capacity makes Lara increasingly on the verge of despair as a leader. His mind is now deadlocked because it is overshadowed by worries and pressure from various parties.

"What should I do? I wanted to keep this company, but the truth is they want me to step down as CEO."

Lara was disappointed in herself. Especially when Jeden blurted out the words that dropped him in the meeting room earlier. To be honest Lara does not really want to be the CEO, but as the sole heir of the Hazel family, he is obliged to maintain his family company, especially from devious people who want to master Miracle in a dirty way. "Huh! Why is it getting so heavy just feels," concluded Lara began to get tired of herself.

Before long Lara's phone rang, Karina's name was plastered on the screen of Lara's phone.

Lara: Hello what's wrong?

Karina: I want us to meet now!

Lara: What's the matter all of a sudden.

Karina: You'll find out later, which is clear now you just meet me at the cafe near my office.

Lara: Okay!

-

There seems to be something important Karina wants to say. Without having to think long the girl immediately went to approach Karina. Lara wanted to call Vander, but she said that she wanted to stop and instead chose to drive alone to meet Karina.

**

The girl immediately pulled out a chair and sat facing Karina. "What's the rush to ask me to come here?"

"Was Miss Lara you seem to like the point?"

"Just tell me what's going on?" Urge Lara.

"All right..." Karina sipped her tea once and told Lara that, "I want the cooperation between Appletree and Miracle to be canceled."

"What?!" Lara was shocked and immediately felt unacceptable. "You can't be so Karina! We've agreed."

"Of course I can! If you've really read the contract, it's clearly written that I can cancel our agreement at any time."

Both of Lara's hands clenched tightly, her eyes staring intently at the emotion that was stirring at the woman before her.

"Why? You want to be mad at me?" Karina challenges Lara's emotions.

"From the beginning, you didn't intend to work with me, did you?!"

"Yes, from the beginning, my goal was to work with only one of you, which was so that I could more easily interact with Van, obviously!" Karina seems increasingly eager to blatantly declare her dislike for Lara.

Lara's molars clenched, she could no longer hold back her emotions for Karina.

"Bas on a cunning woman!" Lara took the drink glass that was in front of her and directly splashed it into Karina's face.

"Huh huh! What the fuck, how dare you water me, you lousy bitch!"

"That's the payoff for a cunning woman like you Karina!" Lara then leaves Karina wet from being watered.

"Arggh! Goddamn bum!" Karina's strangling anger won't accept Lara's treatment of her.

**

While Lara left with her chaotic feelings. How not, today he really like slapped many times his colleagues. After being cornered and satirized in the meeting room by Jeden, now he still has to accept the bitter reality of Karina who arbitrarily cut off cooperation with him.

The girl got into the car feeling angry and disappointed. "Damn!" The screech.

"Why is everything like this? Why do I feel useless, I have a position but why am I the one who acts like a helpless little pawn. Why...?!"

With a feeling of chaos and stress Lara drove her car alone without knowing where to go. The bodyguard finally called him at that moment. Lara, who did not use the wireless on her ear, was finally forced to stop the speed of her car and picked up the phone from Vander.

Lara: Hello

Vander: Where are you?!  (Snap Van sounds worried)

Lara: I'm fine.

Vander: The correct answer is where are you now?!

Lara: I'm on the side of the road,

Vander: Keep your GPS on, I'll see you!

Lara: Hey!

Van who felt very worried immediately rushed to find his lover.

Lara, who is now sitting on the edge of the lake, looks only pensive alone while looking at the lake that is inhabited by white swans who are swimming.

"Seeing the swans that swim with joy I become envious, surely their lives are always happy."

"All the creatures that live in the world must have experienced trouble Miss!" Excited a man.

Seriate...
