Chapter 31: A Dangerous Alliance
"W-what do you mean, Madam?" Samson asked, genuinely taken aback by Itari’s words."I can’t take it anymore. I want out of here, Samson. Please, help me," she sobbed quietly."You know I’ve been working here for less than a month. How could I possibly help you?" Samson replied, feeling completely cornered by the situation."I will pay you. How much do you need? Fifty, a hundred, or two hundred million?" Itari asked desperately. "Just take me far away from this place."The woman wept uncontrollably, looking utterly defeated. Samson was at a loss; he still needed this job to survive. He stood frozen. The offer of hundreds of millions sounded tempting to anyone, but for Samson, it wasn't just about the money. It was about principles and the precarious position he now found himself in.If he helped Itari run away, he wouldn't just be betraying his contract with Rose—he would become a fugitive from their powerful family. Moreover, he would be absconding with another man's wife."Madam, cal
Chapter 32: Blood and Water
With lightning-fast movements, Samson lunged at the shadow. He locked his arm around the figure's neck from behind and pinned him against the concrete pillar, while his right hand stood ready to muffle any scream."S-shh! Boss! It’s me, Boss! Ucok!" a strained voice wheezed through Samson's grip.Samson immediately loosened his hold. He studied the man’s face in the dim glow of the garden lights. It was Ucok, one of the men he had brought into the household staff."Ucok? What the hell are you doing out here at this hour?!" Samson whispered fiercely, his eyes scanning the perimeter to ensure no other guards had been alerted.Ucok rubbed his reddened neck, gasping for air. "Sorry, Boss. I was checking the back perimeter and accidentally bumped into this pot when I heard your voice and the madam's. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, Bang."Itari, who had been holding her breath, gathered the courage to step closer. Her face grew even paler as she realized someone else knew of their secret plan.
Chapter 33: Under the Lion's Gaze
Upon arriving at the lobby of the Baskoro family’s luxury office building, Samson immediately stepped out to open the door for Rose. He stood tall, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a sharp vigilance, a protective instinct that was now second nature to him."Samson, follow me to my office. There are a few things we need to prepare before the meeting starts," Rose ordered as she strode inside.Samson followed at a precise distance, maintaining his employer's professional image. Inside the elevator, which held only the two of them, Rose removed her sunglasses, revealing visible lines of exhaustion."Sam, I want you and your men to start mapping out my father's guard patrol schedule at the mansion. Don't let them get suspicious. Use the excuse of a routine security audit," Rose whispered without turning her head."Understood, Miss. I’ve already instructed Ucok and the others to keep a low profile while observing the gaps near the back wall," Samson replied quietly.Several staff me
Chapter 34: A Night in the Noise
Instead of sitting idly, Samson headed toward the small pantry located in the corner of the executive floor. Ignoring the inquisitive glances from several staff members, he began brewing Rose's favorite jasmine tea. He did it meticulously, ensuring the water temperature was just right so the soothing aroma of the tea leaves could bloom perfectly.A few minutes later, Samson tapped gently on Rose’s office door."Miss, it’s me, Samson," he said in a low voice.Receiving no answer, Samson took the risk of opening the door. He found Rose still slumped in her chair, her head resting heavily in the palms of her hands."Forgive my intrusion, Miss. I’ve made some warm tea for you; I thought it might help clear your mind," Samson said.Rose slowly lifted her head. The lines of exhaustion on her face were no longer hidden, and her hair was slightly disheveled. She looked at the cup of tea Samson placed before her; the calming scent of jasmine immediately filled her senses."Thank you, Sam," Ros
Chapter 35: The Sanctuary
Samson closed his eyes for a moment, fighting hard to shift his focus. Cold sweat began to bead on his temples. Rose’s constant movement on his lap caused "Joni" to react with uncompromising force. This was the most dangerous situation Samson had ever faced, more nerve-wracking than being surrounded by armed enemies."Miss Rose, please, don't do this." Samson’s voice grew deeper and hoarser, struggling to suppress the wild surge within him.Instead of pulling away, Rose looked up, her gaze hazy and alluring. She brushed Samson’s cheek with her cold fingers."Sam, will I ever find my happiness?" Rose murmured. Her eyes suddenly welled up, and tears began to stream down her face. "I’m so tired, Sam."She rested her head against his chest and wept silently. "I feel like I want to run far away and leave all of this behind. But it turns out, I’m not strong enough yet," she whispered. "I’m just so exhausted."Samson felt a tightness in his chest, but this time it wasn't from the peak of des
Chapter 36: A Different Kind of Bravery
"Is this your house?" Rose asked, scanning the simple, modest room."Um, yes, Miss. I apologize for having to bring you here last night. I was worried something might happen if I forced us to return directly to your residence," Samson explained."It’s okay, Sam. I should be the one thanking you for helping me. I must have been quite a handful last night, wasn't I? I’m sometimes unaware of my actions when I’ve had too much to drink," Rose said as she took a spoonful of her porridge."Man, how would she react if she knew she 'woke up' Joni from his deep slumber last night? That would be dangerous; she’d think I’m some kind of pervert," Samson thought to himself."Not at all, Miss," Samson replied, forcing a smile."Well, that’s a relief," Rose smiled back, continuing to enjoy her meal.Samson felt his throat go dry at the sight of Rose's genuine smile that morning. The image of her sitting on his lap the night before, infused with the intoxicating scent of alcohol and perfume—flashed th
Chapter 37: The National Uniform
Meanwhile, Rose found herself amused. She imagined the look on Samson’s intimidating face as he had to shop for women’s essentials."His face must be beet red by now," she chuckled softly.She decided to explore the house. She found a photo of Samson with his mother; it was clear from the picture how much he adored her. Rose brushed the surface of the slightly dull wooden frame. In the photo, a much younger Samson wore a slightly oversized shirt, his arm held tightly by a middle-aged woman with a serene face. Samson’s smile in the photo was wide and free, something Rose rarely saw behind her bodyguard’s stoic expression."So, behind those muscles and that sharp gaze, there’s a very soft heart, isn't there, Sam?" Rose whispered to herself.Nearby, Rose approached a small wooden cabinet. She discovered an old box with a slingshot and faded wooden toy cars inside."So these were Samson’s toys as a kid?" Rose smiled. She tried to pull the slingshot’s rubber band, but being unfamiliar with
Chapter 38: The Fortress of the Heart
Samson took a step back until his back hit the doorframe. The scent of jasmine soap from Rose’s freshly showered body was completely wreaking havoc on his brain's defense system. Moreover, that yellow duster, despite its simplicity, made Rose look incredibly dangerous to the sanity of any normal man."That's, uh, Miss—I mean, Rose," Samson stammered, his eyes darting toward the ceiling as if the answers were written there. "I like both. But if I’m being honest, this one makes me forget that I’m just a bodyguard."Rose wore a triumphant smile. Growing bolder, she took another step until only a fist's width of space remained between them. She could see Samson’s Adam’s apple bobbing rapidly."Why, Sam?" Rose whispered in a low, sultry tone, her eyes locking onto his as his focus began to crumble."Miss, please don't play around. I’m an ordinary man, not a concrete wall," Samson groaned softly. He fought the urge to wrap his hands around her slender waist.At that moment, Joni began to re
Chapter 39: The Clash of Wills
"Where have you been since yesterday, Rose? Why are you only returning now?" Soraya asked, crossing her arms over her chest."That is none of your business," Rose replied coldly."It is very much my business. I am the lady of this house, Rose. And you didn't come home all night while you were with that low-class bodyguard of yours. Where did you go?" Soraya asked, her voice sharp with scrutiny and emphasis."I don't feel the need to report everything I do to you, Lady of the House," Rose countered sarcastically, fueling Soraya’s rage."I will report your behavior to your father," Soraya threatened sharply."Oh, please do. Do you really think I’m afraid?" Rose replied dismissively. Their eyes locked, both sharp and piercing, as if engaging in a silent war of glares.Soraya scoffed, a cynical laugh escaping her bright red lips. She took a step closer. "Don't be so arrogant, Rose. Do you think your father will stay silent if he finds out his daughter spent the night in a slum with an ex-
Chapter 40: The Hidden Witness
"Fine, I will speak, but please, not like this. I’m worried someone might come and misunderstand the situation," Samson said, gently moving away from Itari."Forgive me, Samson. I simply feel so at ease when I’m near you," Itari confessed honestly.Samson remained silent, clearing his throat awkwardly. "Listen, Madam. Miss Rose said it is best for you to be patient a little longer. She wants to help you, but the current situation just isn't right yet," he explained.Itari’s expression instantly darkened. "Samson, I can’t stand living here anymore. Every day is nothing but torture after torture. I want to get out of here now," she cried, tears streaming down her face. "If Rose said that, does it mean she really can't help me?"Samson let out a heavy sigh at the sight of her tears. On one hand, he felt a deep pity for this woman, trapped between Baskoro’s cruelty and Soraya’s cunning. On the other hand, he couldn't go against Rose’s wishes; after all, he worked for her."It’s not that s
