Tease My Sexy Bodyguard

Chapter 70 - Grief and Anger

Simon and Peter went straight to check out the burning warehouse, no one was there, not even all the guards had died with gunshot wounds to their heads.

Peter asks Simon for help while he investigates around the barn, with a man shooting him twice. About Peter's waist and shoulders.

Simon, who heard the gunfire, was looking for Peter, while Peter was being snatched by several people. The man tried to defend and attack as much as possible, but again someone opened fire and hit Peter's chest and stomach.

Simon came in time, he shot the men and help came so they could all be defeated. However, the shooter managed to escape.

...🦋...

Ethan growled stifled, his eyes so sharp, his jaws tightened and the man's hands clenched tightly.

"I've put our men in search of the culprit" Simon said in a low tone. "I..I'm not looking after him, is he going to be mad at me?"

Ethan turned his head and said, "He'll beat you up when he wakes up."

"It's okay, I'll serve it" Simon said. "He's always been protecting us, but I can't do the same. Ck!" Simon pulled his hair, visibly frustrated at Peter's situation, who may have been on the brink of death.

"Here you go, it's not your fault." Ethan embraces Simon, calming the man who has always been anxious and fearful ever since.

"It's my fault we should have been together like we always have been. Why is he so stupid?" Simon punched the wall hard. "He's always a strong-witted, smart-ass, so brave. He's the dumbest man I've ever met in this world." Simon didn't stop whining, his eyes turned red.

How could he not be worried? He already considers Peter as his own brother, they have always been together since working for Ethan's parents. They are never separated in all conditions and situations, Simon is like Peter's shadow and vice versa.

The Welsh doctor, who is Etham's confidant, comes to check on Peter.

Ethan and Simon peek out the door. "What if he dies?" ethan whispered in a choked voice, he had already lost his father and now he did not want to lose his second father.

"We have to bury him well" said Simon, who made Ethan look straight at him.

"I thought you were going to say something else" whispered Ethan.

"What do you expect?" ask Simon.

"Maybe you'd say we wouldn't be able to live without him, or we'd die with him."

Simon grimaces at Ethan's words which he thinks are too poetic. "This is not the story of Romeo and Juliet, Mr. Mayer."

Not long after, Doctor Wales came out and Ethan immediately searched the Doctor with various questions. "Will he survive? When will he open his eyes? His heart is still beating well, right? He's not gonna die in my near future, is he?"

"I can't say he's okay" said the Doctor, who made Ethan feel weak, as did Simon. "He's still in a coma, we can't confirm his condition for now."

"But he's still breathing, right?" sizzle Simon sharply.

"If he's not breathing then now he's in the morgue" the Welsh doctor said sarcastically. "But there's something I want to tell you" said the Welshman, glancing to the right and to the left. "Come into my room."

The two men immediately followed the Welsh Doctor into his room. "Is anything important?" ask Ethan curiously.

"We know that Peter often gets this kind of wound, but he never got into a coma like he is now" the Welsh doctor said, showing Ethan a file. "He was in poison, one of the bullets that went into his body was already covered in poison, that's what's making him dying right now."

Ethan and Simon were stunned, even the two men held their breaths. "We did our best to save her."

"He must survive!" Ethan growled, angry and afraid and now gnawed at his heart. "Whatever it takes, he's safe, Doctor!"

"We must be doing our best to save her, Mr. Mayer, it's just ...."

"What only?" simon shouted, unable to control his anger.

"It's just possible that he's going to have paralysis, and we can't be sure if it can be temporary or permanent."

...🦋...

"Do you have a show tonight?" ed asked who was only responded with a headband by Louisa.

"You want to go to dinner with me?" ask Ed again. "The last time we ate together, you just disappeared so," he said.

"I don't want to go anywhere" Louisa said.

"What's wrong? You got a problem?" ed asked because Louisa's face looked different.

"Nothing" said Louisa coldly.

After spending her day off heartbroken at being abandoned by Ethan, Louisa returns to school.

In fact, it's been the third day since her meeting with Ethan but Louisa still can't contact the man.. Ethan disappeared like he was swallowed by the earth.

Louisa tried to shift her mind by focusing on her lessons, but unfortunately she could not learn anything well, the girl's mind flew out of nowhere.

"Miss Walter!" call Alice. "Follow me now!"

Louisa let out a heavy sigh and inevitably she followed Alice into her room. "Today I'm getting reports that you're not studying well, Miss Walter. Not in your dance or music. You got a problem?" ask the beautiful woman.

"Nothing," answered Louisa evasively.

"Then you have to learn better, so you can perform at the school's birthday show."

Louisa just nodded slowly.

"Now that you can return to training, I suggest you practice longer today. I'll have Ed teach you, he's a good senior, right?"

Louisa nodded again, she returned to the training ground as well as Alice.

"If you don't mind, can you keep Miss Walter company until the afternoon, Ed?" alice asked which of course made Ed look happy.

"Can, Miss Alice, of course. With pleasure."

"Good, happy learning."

After Alice leaves, Ed takes Louisa to the piano.

"What song do you want, Lou? Let's try it together, "take Ed with a spirit.

"Anything" said Louisa who is not the spirit of learning.

"All right, let's try Chopstick, okay? That's so easy."

Louisa nodded in agreement, Ed played the melody beautifully. After that, he gave Louisa a chance to imitate him. At first Louisa can play well, but Ethan's shadow re-emerges in her mind which makes Louisa's melody fall apart.

"Your body's here but where's your mind, Princess?" ask Ed. "You're thinking of someone?" ask her and now Louisa nodded in understanding.

"That's it ...." Ed sat up straight facing Louisa. "Play this music for that person, whether you're angry, you're sad, or you miss him. You can vent it with music, Princess. What are you feeling now?"

"Anged," cetus Louisa with origin.

"Then focus on your anger but vent it gracefully. Believe me, music can also be the outlet of your heart."
