My Only Love: The Targeted Heiress

Actually, Vincent did not want to mention this. But considering that soon he will be gone and this person had been assigned to guard Cathy, then that person would often appear in front of Cathy.

Even though he didn't like any other man who approached Cathy aside himself, he had to convince Cathy that she could trust this person. That way, even if he wasn't by the girl's side, Cathy could accept and let this person protect her.

"Yes, he knows me, and you can trust him. Therefore, you shouldn't hesitate when he offers to drive you home."

"You want me to go out with another man?" Cathy's tone was like an accusation.

"Why do you make it sound like I threw you at another man?"

"Isn't that right?" this time, Cathy's tone became cynical, and her hands no longer wrapped around his waist.

Do they have to fight now? Vincent didn't want their last meeting to end in a fight or misunderstanding. But he cannot tell the truth to his sulking lover either.

The situation put him in a tight spot.

"You know that's not what I mean. Forget it. You can send him away if you want. Don't get in his car, and don't let him make you follow him. You have to use your own car, so you have a reason to turn down his offer. And if he starts to hit on you or flirt around, you need to tell him this. You already have a more handsome and charming boyfriend and don't need any other man than me."

Cathy laughed with amusement. "Looks like someone is jealous? After all, how can you be sure if he is less handsome than you? He's very handsome and tall and..." Her teasing words were cut off as her body pushed forward to Vincent's body, closing any possible gap.

Cathy's heart was beating fast as Vincent's face lowered his head and drew closer to her. Vincent tilted his head and continued toward his target.

Cathy held Vincent's body with both open palms along with her drumming heart that she no longer knew whether it could go faster than this.

"Is this your other prank?" she asked nervously.

Vincent's movement paused and gave her a mischief smirk. "What do you think?"

Cathy scowled as she tried to calm her wild heart. She would no longer be able to face the same situation as last night. Wait... What is she expecting?

Go... go away...

Cathy drives away the thought that Vincent would kiss her. Right. This nosy person must have been playing tricks on her, so she didn't really expect it. No! She didn't expect anything. Screamed Cathy in her mind.

Vincent held an amused smile at the changing expression on Cathy's face. It seemed that the girl had not anticipated his movements. He became tempted to want to see the girl's reaction if he kissed her. He really would have done it if only he didn't feel the hostile aura that had been stabbing his back since earlier.

Someone was watching them, and obviously, this aura of hatred was directed at him and not at Cathy. Could it be that the S team leader was watching him?

Catherine, whose identity was now the true heiress to Paxton's legacy, was the most valuable person and was unquestionably protected by the LS organization.

He knew that, but he was sure... Catherine was far more valuable than what LS thought to him. They saw Cathy as their ruler, as the key to reactivating Stealth. But for Vincent, Catherine was more than that. She was his queen in his heart.

Therefore... he would cherish the girl and not cross the line until they were legally united in the marriage.

Let them called him an outdated man because that was his upbringing from the Regnz family. It's just... he always barely controlled himself every time he was around his girl. His hands never seemed far from the girl's skin. And also... that girl's sensual lips... looks so tempting made him want to...

Vincent immediately took his hands off Cathy and stepped back away from her. Vincent cleared his throat again, trying to get rid of his thoughts of doing something he shouldn't.

"You better go inside." Vincent clicked his tongue in annoyance at his voice that was hoarser than usual. He even pinched his own hands, not to hug Cathy again, especially seeing the sad and disappointed expression on her face made him want to hug her once more.

"As long as I'm away, I can't promise I'll call you often. I can't promise I'll reply to your messages either, but I'll definitely read all the messages you send. I can promise you that. You can also come to the gallery and into my office. I'll tell Frank so that he would take you there." this time, Vincent spoke in a very soft voice. "Go inside. It's getting dark. I don't want you to catch a cold. Don't forget to eat and..."

"I get it. I will do all you said. You don't want to come in yet?"

"Maybe next time." Vincent would not know what kind of thought would overpower him to do something about his girl if he walked into her house.

After all, they had seen each other for a short time. And their relationship might not be the same when they meet again. Vincent was afraid he would not let the girl go the whole night if he were with Cathy too long.

"Oo..." came a tone of disappointment at Cathy's voice. "Okay, I'll go in first," stated Cathy turned around to open the gate of her house. Cathy did not immediately enter after opening it but walked back to Vincent, who was still standing behind her.

Cathy did something he never expected to make Vincent's heart thumped wild. Cathy stood in front of him, tiptoed, then pulled his shoulders towards her and.... gave a short peck on his cheek.

"Don't be away too long, I'll miss you very much." after saying her heart out, Cathy quickly returned and closed the gate to hide her face.

Vincent was still glued to his place as if he was a human statue. His hand moved to the cheek that his lover kissed, and he felt like a tingling sensation overwhelmed him.

Is he dreaming? Why is that girl so adorable? Vincent couldn't help but widening his smile, and his joy knew no limit as he rubbed his burning cheek lovingly.

Sadly, his smile disappeared as soon as it arrived. Vincent glanced at the source of the aura of hatred and saw someone in a black mask standing there. He did not the man's face, but he could feel the killing intent from the man's sharp eyes.

Strangely enough, he felt like he saw Chloe when he looked at that dark brown's eyes. Those eyes... were like Chloe's. Who is that?

That person turned around and walked away with an arrogant and indifferent attitude towards his surroundings. Vincent did not have the chance to find more about that man, so he just gave it up.

Vincent gave a heavy sigh and looked back at the gate of his lover's house. If possible, he also hoped to see Cathy again soon. But that was just wishful thinking.

He knew that he wouldn't be able to see the girl for at least a year after this. And when they reunite, Cathy would already know her mother's truth and... would blame and hate him.

What an ironic love life he had. The day they reunite would be the same day they part.

Vincent exhaled his most extended breath and started driving his car. He didn't immediately go home but drove his car to Star Risen's place. His cousin owed him an explanation. Why didn't he know that his cousin was taking care of Chloe's daughter all this time?

No. The most accurate inquiry was, why in the world Benjamin did not tell him if Chloe had a daughter!?

If he had known earlier that Cathy was Chloe's daughter, Martin might not see Cathy today. He would do everything he could to keep Cathy away from the clutches of the old snake of Paxton.

At the same time, Benjamin was seriously thinking about something in his penthouse. Ever since he accepted the West sisters into his life, he had been cautious that no one found out that he has four nieces.

At first, he didn't care for the four of them. How could he care for and nurture affection for four young unknown girls who turned out to be the daughters of his older brother? He even never knew that he had an older brother!

All he knew was that Chloe never said anything about her brother, and his mother also often reminded him that he was the only son of Davone Paxton.

As soon as he graduated from college and returned to the country, he was contacted by the government that his brother was mentally ill and his four daughters had no family to care for them.
