Isabella new bodyguard

While Isabella got set to leave the office, she stood up ready to walk out of the office when she noticed a tall, handsome, well-dressed man in a tailor-made suit.

“Where is Wong, my personal bodyguard?” She asked her secretary, Anna, who stood with a surprised expression that triggered anger from Isabella.

“I can't tell where he is.” Anna answered almost with fear.

“My phone.” Isabella stretched her hands towards Anna to have her phone.She was about to put a call to Wong when Xavier, her new bodyguard, walked to her.

“Who the hell are you?” Isabella curiously asked him.

Xavier put on a good smile, after which he answered.

“I am your new bodyguard.” He answered her.

“Bodyguard!” Isabella asked him.

“Yes.” Xavier answered with the same smile on his face.

“I, I…” Isabella almost stammers.

“The last time I checked, Wong was my bodyguard. How come you appear from nowhere with the claim that you are my new bodyguard?” She furiously asked him.

“I think your father should be in the right place to answer this.” Xavier answered her.

“Did you hear him, Anna?”

“Did you just hear how rude and arrogant he is?” Isabella fuels her anger up.

“I do not know you, nor do I want to know what planet you exist on.”

“I am sorry, miss. Isabella, but the fact remains that I am your new bodyguard.” He repeats it again.

“The worst of it all is that Wong has refused to pick up my calls.” She said to Anna.

“I think you should put a call to your father, since you seem not to believe him or his colleagues.” Anna advised her.

“You think my father has a hand in this?” Isabella asked Anna as she stared at Xavier.

“Hum!” Anna exclaimed with demonstration from her cheeks.

“Miss Isabella, we are running late to the appointment booked with the Williams Aluminum company.” Anna told her.

“I am not ready to have business conversations with anyone at the moment.” Isabella sadly answered her.

“Meaning you cancelled it?” Anna asked friendly.

“Postponed, not cancelled?” Isabella answered, yet focused on staring at Xavier.“When exactly?” Anna asked her.

“Fixed that yourself.” Isabella told her.

“And as for you, the sudden godforsaken bodyguard, I do not want to see you anywhere around me.” Isabella pointed at him.

“I am sorry, but this is my ID card.” Xavier has shown her his ID card.Isabella remains calm; now she believes that an exchange without her consent or even reason has been made.

“Fuck!” She said to herself.

“Even as at that, do not make an inch closer to me, not even holding my briefcase." She warned him again.

Xavier stood listening silently.“Anna, let's go.” Isabella told Anna.

“Can I have the briefcase?” Xavier sounded so stubborn to Isabella's instruction.

“Didn't you hear me?” She slapped him.

“Miss Isabella!” Anna called Isabella's attention.Xavier stood looking at her silently with his right hand on his right cheek.

“You shouldn't have been…” Anna tried correcting Isabella, but Isabella's rude reaction barked back at Anna.

“You dare not challenge me or stop me from trying to teach this fool the lesson of his life. How could he try to hold my briefcase even after being warned?”

“Now get into the car, before you will be forced to be left alone here in the company premises.”Anna quickly got into the car, as Isabella did the same.

“Join the guard!” Isabella told Xavier, who had sat at the front with the driver.

“It is my duty to protect you, miss. Isabella, this is what I am paid for; besides,it is just a six-month contract.” Xavier answered her.

“Six what…!” Isabella almost went crazy. “My goodness, where is Wong? Why hasn’t he picked up my call?” Isabella is getting confused.

“Not even my father nor my mother picked up my call. What the hell is going on?” Isabella got provoked.

“I don't care to know who and where you are coming from, Xavier; just have it right at the back of your mind that you are returning back to the barracks as soon as we get home.” Isabella told him.

Xavier remains calm, doing his job as well.“Can you see? Have you seen how he has snubbed me?” Isabella reported to Anna when she almost held Xavier's suit.

“You will get to know the reality from your parents as soon as we get home.” Anna asked Isabella.

“My gosh, I can't wait to get home.” “What!” Isabella almost screamed. All through their way home, she kept staring at Xavier from the mirror.

“He is full of muscles, huge and tall, yet irritating,” she spoke of Xavier’s appearance.“Just calm down.” Anna is trying to calm her down.

Soon after, they drove in.“Stop me here.” Isabella commands her driver; she insisted on being parked a little distance from the pavement leading to the sitting room.

Isabella stepped out of the car; on getting to the doorpost, she pressed the button that had the door opened.

“Can I have a full explanation of what you have done?” Isabella smiled at her parents, who were sitting watching a program.

“What has gone wrong with you, Isabella?”

"Sherman?" her father asked.

“Yes, we know how rude and arrogant you can be, but that shouldn't be the reason for barging into the sitting room with such vexation on us.”

“What is that supposed to mean, Father?” Isabella got pissed off. “Where is Wong?” She added.

“Why not put a call to him since you insist on knowing the reason for a sudden change of a bodyguard?” Sherman reacted.

“He is not picking up my call.” Isabella got frustrated.

“In case you have forgotten, you are worth a billionaire in dollars.

Taking over my position as the new CEO of over twenty-six companies I have worked hard in establishing.

You need to be properly saved.” Sherman told her.“Yes, Wong isn’t enough for you.

He might be kind, hardworking, and something clever, but not as clever and smart as Xavier.” Clara Isabella's mother added.

“Do you mean that Dad has just exchanged Wong without reason?” Isabella asked.“Point of corrections, daughter!” Sherman drew Isabella's attention.

“I and your mother needed someone fit to your current status, which is the reason we have Xavier replace Wong for just six months so Wong could undergo more training, after which he will return to being fixed in his position.” Sherman kindly answered.

“Six months with this monster standing here before me?”

“He is your new bodyguard; you can call him whatever you wish as long as he remains and is committed to his duty. I and your mother are both satisfied.” Sherman added.

“Father…!” Isabella almost said more when she took a step towards her room. “I hate him. I hate the muscles on his body; in fact, he is disgusting.”

“It is time you get to understand him. Work with him; above all, don't forget that we love you.” Sherman tried to put a smile on Isabella's face, but she walked out of their presence.
