Chapter 280 - Hey, are you crazy?! (1/2)

Feeling jubilant about her achievement, Marga immediately rushed to her room. However, she stopped not far off from her room seeing Ace leaning beside the door with his hands in his pocket; looking bored.

Not knowing what's this bodyguard's intention was, Marga's vigilance heightened as she began to slow her steps and composed herself while putting her phone behind her. When she was a few steps away from him, she took a full stop and thrust her chin forward.

”Why are you here?”

Ace who was bored as for him, Marga took forever to reach her own room even though she was literally sprinting her way back there. Raising his head unenergetically, Ace's perilous gaze met hers -- which made Marga unconsciously step back.

He languidly held out his hand from his pocket as if he was asking for her to hand him something. Without a word, Ace tilted his head on the side seeing the oblivious expression on Marga.

”Wh -- what?”

”Give it back.” Ace's words were too complex to comprehend which made Marga a little confused. Alas, part of her guessed what he was referring.

”Give what back?”

”The thing you stole -- give it back.” Ace frowned as he was pushed to say more words to Marga. To him, it should be easy to guess what he wanted back as he only worked for Seraphina and Sebastian Yue. Hence, as a bodyguard, he must protect his employer's privacy.

”Huh, stole? Just who do you think you are?” Being accused of something that she seemed she did not do, Marga raised her brows. Moreover, does this bodyguard know his disposition in life?

”I am the Chairwoman bodyguard…”

”Exactly! Just a bodyguard. So, how dare you accuse me of stealing?” Marga sassed; filled with confidence and mockery. Marga and her father already s_u_c_k_e_d too much humiliation from Seraphina's indirect and direct insults. Hence, she won't allow some lowly servants to trample the pride that left in her.

For a moment, Ace didn't utter a word as he put his held out hand back to his pocket. Scrutinizing the slightly relieve expression of Marga, a subtle smirk form on the corner of his lips. Soon, he took slow strides towards her which made Marga took a step back.

Every step Ace takes, Marga step back until the cold railing of the mezzanine inside balcony touched her lower back -- indicating she had nowhere to run.
