After I Agreed to the Marriage, My Step-sister's Personal Bodyguard Became CrazyChapter 1

My personal bodyguard who had been with me for eight years, left me without hesitation and rescued my stepsister on the day the villa caught fire. He pulled me out of hell countless times and everyone said that he must have loved me terribly.

But he also turned away resolutely when I was in a daze, "Miss Barley, there are many people who want to save you. But Suzy only has me."

The man's voice was cold and he was dressed in a smart suit and quickly disappeared in the smoke.

That man was none other than my bodyguard who had been with me for eight years, Austin. I looked at his back, wiped my tears, turned around and agreed to the marriage partner chosen by my father.

"I don't want Austin anymore, I accept the marriage."

——

The pain in my chest when I woke up was still clear.

The ward was quiet, except for the ticking sound of the machine and the footsteps outside the door.

I opened the door and saw Austin, who was always calm and self-sustaining.
