You More Than Anything In The World

Arissa accompanied Darius while he finished his meal and only left after they talked for a while.

On her way home, the bodyguard noticed that a few cars were tailing them.

“Mrs. Graham, there are cars following us from behind. Hold on tight. I'll shake them off.”

Startled, Arissa turned her head. Indeed, there were two cars, one on the left and one on the right, following them closely.

“Are you sure you can lose them?”

“I'll give it a try!” The bodyguard stepped on the gas pedal. I don't know who's tailing us, but it won't be good if they are enemies.

Arissa held on to the grab handle, her attention on the cars tailing them. They also sped up when the bodyguard drove faster. Clearly, they were after them. Arissa frowned. Who are these people?

The bodyguard planned to get rid of their pursuers at the intersection ahead. That was when a car blocked their path just as he accelerated to make a turn.

Screech!

The car came to an abrupt stop as the tires screeched loudly.

“Mrs. Graham, are you okay?” Seeing that their pursuers were closing in, the bodyguard quickly contacted the headquarters. There were more than ten people who got out of the cars.

The inertia caused Arissa to crash into the car door. After a while, she rebounded back onto her seat. “I-I'm fine.”

“Mrs. Graham, please stay in the car and don't get out.” The bodyguard got out of the car without hesitation and attacked the approaching people.

Arissa grew uneasy seeing the bodyguard face more than ten people alone. She would have joined the fight if it were not for the baby in her belly, as she thought that the two of them would be able to handle them.

The bodyguard was pretty skilled, and he subdued eight of the assailants easily. The assailants exchanged looks with each other, and the leader commanded, “Make this quick!”

Just then, the bodyguard got injected with something, which immediately put him at a disadvantage. Very soon, he was covered with injuries. The bodyguard got kicked and was sent flying away. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and passed out instantly.

Arissa's eyes turned cold. She was about to fall into the hands of the enemy.

The car door was suddenly opened, and she met the gaze of the other party. Terrified, Arissa moved to the other side of the vehicle. The other party yelled aggressively, “Get out of the car!”

“W-Who are you? Did you get the wrong person? I don't know you!” Arissa put on a frightened and timid act, and tears welled up in her eyes. Her pitiful appearance evoked some sympathy from the other party.

“Well, we know you. You're Benjamin Graham's wife. We haven't mistaken you for anyone. Get out of the car.” Someone reached their hand in and forcibly dragged Arissa out of the car.

Arissa fearfully got out of the car cooperatively lest she got hurt. Her heart wrenched when she saw the bodyguard lying nearby, covered in blood.

“Who are you? I'm not Benjamin's wife. You've really got the wrong person. Don't take me away. I'm innocent!” Arissa cried out while trembling all over.

The other party exchanged glances with each other. They were hesitant as Arissa seemed to be telling the truth.
