Chapter 101 - Bodyguard

Tim, who has never been rejected by a woman in his life, couldn't break his gaze from Clara's departing back. 

The women that rejected him were those who want serious relationship. They don't want to end in his bed for fun, while that's what Tim wanted, so it resulted to rejection. 

The others were cool with everything, and they had their fun, before they leave for their separate ways. 

He's not well versed in this pursuing love stuff, so he had no idea what he should do. Is he supposed to run after her or what? 

He usually wink at rejection and walk away, so this seem foreign to him, because it's Clara who left. 

He got up on his feet and slowly dragged his feet outside the restaurant. He has spent much time contemplating on what to do, that Clara has gotten out of reach. 

Even if he did go after her, he had no idea what to say. Clara has made her mind clear to him. 

Getting inside his car, her stare at the bag containing the clothes and accessories he bought for her. 

It really did take him a lot of time to pick a suitable outfit. He has fantasized on how it will look on her and many more, but reality hurts. 

He's mature enough to realize that Clara might even stop talking to him, if he pushed too hard. The girl seem uncomfortable with his confession. 

Taking a deep breath, he drove away to his house.

…..

Clara was walking towards Leo's residence on foot, since it's not very far from the restaurant. 

She could have board a cab even though it's trek-able, but since he wouldn't feel tired anyway and still need to digest the bomb Tim throw at her, she decided to trek.

She felt like an idiot. Her mind drifted to the kiss, which her wish she could turn back time and didn't kiss him. 

She wouldn't deny that she's attracted to him, because she find him very eye-catching. She has even thought about how Sonya will refer to his kind as big cash. 

He just find him hot, not to the feeling aspect. She's used to joking with Sonya when they saw a good looking guy, so it just come naturally when she saw Tim. 

The only beauty that didn't attracted her is Leo's. She didn't even want to know if he's handsome or not, even though he's an eye candy.

This attractiveness to Tim's beauty made her not minding kissing him. She happened to feel free with him and he look like someone who wouldn't mind it. 

She realized she acted crazy. She felt awful, because Tim seem sincere. 

She can never love. 

Love. What is love? 

In her own definition, love brings her parents together and made them give birth to her. it brings forth her existence into this harsh world, so it will be stupid of her to make the same mistake. 

If she dies, then the guardian role can go screw itself. There's no way she's giving birth to a child that will inherit this burden. Now way! 

Clara was deep in thought as she keep walking towards Leo's mansion, but didn't fail to detect that she's being tailed.

She tried to detect evil intentions of some sort, but didn't get any. She wonder who it could be. 

Since there's no bad intentions from the person, she assumed that someone might have made the request. 

It only means these people are only doing their job. But who has she managed to offend? 

As far as she could recall, she's one of the gentle being on earth. She's not troublesome. 

Clara ignored them, as it's not the time to mind such thing. She hope Tim will deal with the rejection and not try hard, because she might have to stop talking to him. 

If he didn't mention it again, she will pretend as if it never happened. 

She finally got home under the stalking eyes of the unknown people. The gate was opened for her which she gracefully stepped in. 

Leo's figure came into view before she could make the cut towards her quarters direction. 

She wanted to ignore him, but Leo called her name. "Bodyguard."

Oops! he didn't call her Clara, but her title in the mansion. 

He was dressed in a long sleeve cyan shirt, with the first three button unlocked, giving a nice view of his well toned chest, while putting on a three quarters short, revealing his alluring long legs that could make woman drool over him. 

They haven't talked since he tried to confess to her. Clara felt uncomfortable, because his expression still felt weird to her, while Leo tried to think of a way out. 

Clara is very stubborn. If he need to make her look at him, then he need to tackle her stubbornness with his own. 

Is she didn't want to hear him out, as woman, then she will have to do that as his bodyguard. 

Holding the urge to laugh as he watch her grit her teeth, he kept a stoic expression and walked closer to where she stood. 

She still hasn't gotten over the word bodyguard.
