Chapter 1 I lost sight in one eye , limped in one leg , got kidnapped by his rival for three times , and been infertile in the three years working as the personal bodyguard of Alexander Hartwell . Alexander asked me to retire out of concern , and he even promised to marry me . But when I entered the Hartwell Group with my broken body , all I got was a job as a cleaner . He asked me to give the engagement ring back . " Victoria , I'm sorry ... she's back ... " She ? The woman he said was exactly Linda Sinclair . She abandoned Alexander three years ago , and ruined me as the rival of the Hartwell family . The top executives at Hartwell Group held an emergency meeting and issued three orders : " Remove all of Victorja Moore's wedding photos across London , and replace them with Miss Sinclair's . " " Erase Victoria's name from the engagement ring , and engrave Miss Sinclair's instead . " " Create a chief assistant position for Miss Sinclair , and reassign Victoria to be a cleaner ... " Alexander embraced me from behind . " Linda's moving into Hartwell's Manor . Don't come back anymore - find somewhere to hide ... " I recalled my time - travel mission . Then I quietly pushed him away . " Fine ... " I'd hide myself back in somewhere he'll never find me . " Mr. Hartwell ! Miss Sinclair's entering the executive VIP elevator ! She'd be here in 90 seconds ! " The assistant said in a panic . Alexander hurried to push me away, then fixed his tie in front of the mirror . " Victoria , it's been three years since I last saw Linda . Tell me if I look older ?? " 0.0 % 07:49 Chapter 1 Alexander's always so calm . Even when I got kidnapped , I never saw him this flustered . Watching how excited he was , I shook my head . " Not at all ... " Hearing that , Alexander grinned . He looked around , and kissed my forehead . Then he pushed me away like he was doing something wrong . " Cleaning work is safer than bodyguarding , Victoria . Just keep it ... Go change now . " As he spoke , he thrust the cleaner's uniform I'd left on the sofa into my hands . I nodded and turned around . A faint and sharp pain tugged at my heart . When I looked back from the doorway , I saw Linda's work station was already installed beside his desk . His large desk was next to her small one - even their computers were matching colors . 288 iVouchers There was even a plush bed with their shared photo , and under the bed were two pairs of matching slippers - pink and blue ... The more I looked , the more my old wounds hurt . For three years , I'd hurt my body and mind just to protect him . My life was nothing but plots against me , poison at- tempts , and kidnappings . The doctor said I was always on edge , and my body couldn't even handle soft beds anymore . He also suggested me to live in a quiet , and tranquil place ... I thought - there's no quieter place than ancient times . I'd just walked out of Alexander's office when I turned around and bumped into someone in white . The familiar lily fragrance flooded my senses . I was stunned , then hurried to grab Linda before she fell , only to be pushed away by Alexander . He held her into his arms with worry . Applause erupted as he kissed her deeply . The staff from the company whispered to each other : " So the lily perfume Mr. Hartwell always wears is the same as Miss Sinclair's ! He's loved her all along ! " Now this is a perfect match , unlike that blind and lame Victoria . She is just a bodyguard , but never knows her place ! 39.2 % 07:49 Chapter 1 I quietly stepped out , twisting the black ribbon with exotic perfume around my wrist . It was tied by Alexander after one of our intimate moments . He said . " Victoria , you're addictive - just like exotic perfume . " " I can't have you around all the time , but I can't live without you either . " Now I finally get it . He meant I was just his backup . The descending elevator cut off their passionate romance in the CEO's office . When I passed the building's trash bin , the pain in my chest slowly eased . I untied the black ribbon and tossed it in . 288 iVouchers 86.1 %
