Chapter 1490 A Couple
When Vinson checked his watch and realized that it was time to pick Arielle up, he left Harveyâs place
and headed to the medical school.
Meanwhile, when Nico, who had already arrived, saw him leaning against his car, her heart began to
flutter. Somehow, she felt the man before him was not who he claimed he was. Even though he was
just a bodyguard, the aura he emitted was more distinguished than that of Aaron, who was already a
prince.
After tidying up her hair that was messed up by the wind, she swaggered up to Vinson with a smile. âHi,
what a coincidence to see you again.â
Upon hearing her voice, Vinson looked up and shot her a glance before retracting his gaze.
After all, he wasnât bothered about anyone he deemed irrelevant.
When Nico saw how he blatantly ignored her, she broke into a smirk.
Do you think I would give up that easily? Never! Whatever I want, regardless of someone or something,
Iâll definitely have them.
âYou must be waiting to pick Arielle up. I already found out that sheâs nothing but your employer.â
Smiling slightly at Vinson, Nico added generously, âIf youâre willing to be my bodyguard, Iâll pay you five
times what your current salary is.â
Even though Vinson continued to ignore her, Nico wasnât disheartened at all. In fact, the more he
disregarded her, the more intense her interest in him became.
âIf youâre not willing to be my bodyguard, why donât we be friends instead?â she asked while
maintaining her vibrant smile.
âYouâre being annoying.â
Initially, Vinson had no intention of talking to her. However, her incessant badgering caused him to lose
his patience.
Nico blushed in response, for this was the first time in her life someone had complained that she was
being too noisy.
Oh, my God! Heâs so cool when he does that. This is too much for me!
âIn that case, letâs be friends and I wonât bother you.â Nico stared at him with admiration as her interest
in him kept growing with every passing moment.
After giving her the side-eye, Vinson retracted his gaze.
Other than Arielle, he would not befriend any other woman.
âShall we exchange contacts?â Just as she spoke, Nico handed her phone over, hoping that he would
input his number into it. In response, Vinson continued to ignore her.
Despite putting her phone away, she continued to gawk at him.
Just then, Arielle walked out of the school and raised her brow upon the scene that greeted her. Has
her pursuit of Vinson brought her here?
Monitoring the schoolâs entrance the entire time, Vinson hurried over to her side the moment he spotted
Arielle. After taking her bag from her, he escorted her to the car.
Watching Vinson throughout, Nico was filled with indignance when she saw him go beyond his duties
as a bodyguard to carry Arielleâs bag for her. Consequently, she walked up to Arielle and admonished
her, âHeâs your bodyguard, not your nanny. Carrying your bag for you isnât within his job scope. Next
time, you should hold your own bag and not get him to do it.â
âHeâs my man, so I can get him to do whatever I want. Besides, how is this any of your business?â
Arielle asked with a raised brow while trying to hold back a smile.
Nico was infuriated. What does she mean that heâs her man? Heâs nothing but her bodyguard. Why is
she making their relationship sound so intimate? In fact, someone not in the know would assume both
of them are a couple!
âWhat youâre doing violates the labor laws!â Nico snapped, directing a hostile glare at Arielle.
âSo what?â Arielle raised her brows. âDoes he look like heâs being forced to do it?â
Stung by the words, Nico turned her attention toward Vinson and noticed the affection in his eyes.
