Four to Protect Her

Itzyana, the daughter of a wealthy business tycoon, kept her school life a secret from her parents. To find out how she was doing, her father hired four bodyguards to protect her and observe her at school. The bodyguards were also supposed to attend school with her and pretend to be students. However, what they didn't know was that Itzyana was being bullied at school, and she had been keeping it a secret from her family. Will she be able to keep this a secret from them until the end? What will happen when the bodyguards discover that the person they are supposed to protect is being bullied? Could Itzyana's reluctance to discuss her school life be the actual reason why her father hired the bodyguards?

Chapter 70

The car continued to glide through the city streets, the comfortable silence enveloping Jace and Itzy. Jace, his grip on the steering wheel steady, couldn't help but sense a palpable tension in the air, brought on by what Itzy said.

 

Itzy, who had been staring out of the window, occasionally glanced at Jace out of the corner of her eye. She fidgeted with her fingers, an unusual restlessness overtaking her. The words hung heavy in the air, creating a bubble of unease around them.

 

After a few moments of silence, Jace cleared his throat, his voice gentle but laced with curiosity. "Itzy, you don't need to apologize for that. I didn't mind, really."

 

Itzy turned her gaze back to Jace, her eyes filled with a mix of relief and embarrassment. "I just thought... It wasn't really appropriate, and I shouldn't have done it."
