Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

“I have some good news for you, Angela. I’m getting engaged.”

“What?” Angela said in shock. She’s getting engaged?

“It’s so sudden, right? Do you know what the man I’m engaged to looks like? Oh, my God! He’s so handsome. In fact, he’s the most handsome man I’ve ever seen in my life. Grandpa arranged the engagement for me, but I’m so satisfied with it.” It was Annie Meyers’ voice on the other side of the phone.

Hearing that, Angela was still worried. “Have you seen him before?”

“I’ve only seen his photo, but I’m already falling for him. I’ve heard that he has come back here already, so our family will be engaged with his family tomorrow night. Are you free to come, Angela?”

“I-I’ll see if I’m free.” Angela wasn’t in a good mood, so she didn’t want to ruin everything for Annie.

“Are you still thinking about Dexter?”

“He has already proposed to another woman. I don’t know.” Angela stared at the lights outside the window with her eyes full of bitterness. No one could accept the devastation after being abandoned.

“Don’t be sad, Angela. Look on the bright side.”

“I get it, Ann. If I can’t attend your engagement, I’ll definitely attend your wedding.”

“Okay!” Annie answered happily.

After hanging up on the phone, Angela turned around and accidentally knocked her bag on the couch. The bag fell onto the ground and a lipstick rolled out of it.

She looked at the lipstick and took her resentment toward her boyfriend’s betrayal onto the lip product. Dexter had given it to her, and she had been using it for a long time since she wasn’t willing to change it. Now, she didn’t want to see it anymore.

As such, she took the lipstick and walked to the balcony. After taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes and threw that lipstick out of the window into the dark garden.

Even though the lipstick was thrown away, she was still feeling devastated. She squatted down and covered her face, letting her tears fall out of her eyes. At that moment, she was waiting for a savior.

Who could save her? Who could save her broken heart?

All of a sudden, a loud thunder struck from the sky, and it was followed by a beam of lightning that shone on her pale but beautiful face.

A storm was about to arrive. Soon, rain started pouring down from the sky on Averna.

In the corner of the garden, the lipstick that Angela had thrown just now lay there on the soft soil. A shallow hole was made by the pouring rain, and the lipstick slipped into it and was covered by another layer of soil.

At this moment, Angela had no idea what kind of secret was hidden in the lipstick that she had thrown away in anger and that two groups of people were approaching her. One was to kill her, and the other one was to save her. No one knew what was going to happen next.

In the morning, there was a tall man standing outside of the door of the Meyers Residence with a bag in his hand. He pressed on the doorbell, and the maid came and asked him, “Are you the new bodyguard?”

“Yes.”

“What’s your name?”

“Gideon Lambert,” the man said his name naturally.

“Please come in.” The maid let him in because she had received a notice yesterday about the new bodyguard coming in today.

Inside the hall, Daphne was ready to head out when she saw the new bodyguard coming in. She was momentarily stunned.

This bodyguard’s face and aura were much better than she expected. She was totally amazed by him.

“Hello, Mrs. Meyers. I’m Gideon Lambert. I was sent by Mr. Meyers to protect Miss Meyers,” the young man greeted her respectfully.

“Hello, Mr. Lambert. I’ve heard from my husband. Well, my daughter is not in a good mood these days. Please keep your eyes on her and don’t let her do anything stupid.” She studied him from head to toe and actually felt that it might be a good choice to take him as her son-in-law.

“Sure. I’ll do everything in my power to protect your daughter and not let her be exposed to any danger.” His low and calm voice gave her a sense of security.

“I can have peace of mind, then.” She felt that her husband’s taste in bodyguards was great, for he had sent such a tall and handsome bodyguard to protect their daughter. Most importantly, she could see that he was full of righteousness. It was rare for her to sense this strong and righteous feeling from a person.

“Have you had your breakfast?”

“I did. Thank you.”

“My daughter is upstairs. I’m heading out now, so I don’t have the time to introduce you to her. I’ll ask the maid to take you upstairs instead.” As she spoke, her phone started ringing. She quickly picked it up and said, “I’m going out now. Please wait for a while.”

After Daphne left, the maid said to the young man in the hall, “Mr. Lambert, you can have a seat first. Miss Meyers is not up yet.”

However, the man didn’t sit down. He put down his luggage and went outside to the yard to check the topography of the entire Meyers Residence. Just then, a voice came from the earpiece in his ears.

“Richard, we’ve already hacked into the security system of the Meyers Residence. Everything is under control.”

This bodyguard wasn’t anyone else; it was Richard entering the Meyers Residence with another identity. The Meyers Residence was in an extremely dangerous situation during this time. It was especially so for Miss Meyers, who could be kidnapped at any time by the thieves.

In the main bedroom on the third floor, Angela opened her eyes, but they were so red and puffy that it made her uncomfortable. She climbed out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She had thought about it for the whole night and decided to talk about getting Dexter back with her mother.

Since her father had gone outstation and only her mother and maids were at home, she didn’t try to change or dress up. She just wore her silk sleeping gown and went downstairs. With her messy long hair behind her head, Angela was slightly voluptuous and extremely beautiful that morning.

She gave out a born noble aura with some iciness and bookishness.

Just when Angela was going down the stairs and wanted to call the maid, a tall figure came in from the entrance with light shining from his back, giving people a sense of pressure.

Unexpectedly, the two of them looked at each other, and Angela widened her eyes a little. Why is there a man in the house?

Richard looked at Miss Meyers, who had just woken up, and nodded. “Hello, Miss Meyers. I’m Gideon Lambert, your new bodyguard. From now on, I’ll be in charge of your safety 24/7.”

“24/7?” she hummed softly. “Who says I need a bodyguard? I don’t need one. Please leave.”

“Sorry, I’ve taken the order from your father. This is my job, so please cooperate.” he said calmly and indifferently.

Angela pulled her sleeping gown together, and her face was blushing. “You’re my bodyguard, right? Please stand at the door.”

Startled, Richard turned around and stood at the door with his back straight and upright.

Then, she took a deep breath and thought, Why did my father suddenly hire a bodyguard?

She had said before that she didn’t need a bodyguard to disturb her life.

“Where’s my mom?” she asked the maid.

“Madam has gone out. Do you want to have breakfast, Miss?”

“It’s okay.” She wanted to leave the house to relax herself. Hence, she turned around and went upstairs.

Ten minutes later, she changed into simple casual wear and went downstairs with a backpack. It was definitely an outfit one would wear out.

She glanced at the man who was guarding the door, only to realize that he was really tall. Her five-foot-four height made her look small in front of him.
