Chapter 243 Delicate Bodyguard
The moment Ethan noticed the panic in J''s eyes, he wrapped his arms around her waist from
behind and rested his chin on her corbone. His voice rang in her ears, "It''s nothing to be afraid of.
I''m here with you. Please calm down."
J closed her eyes and took a deep breath when he finished speaking. She then turned around
and hugged him tightly. With tears welling up in her eyes, she said, "I really wish I could calm down.
However, I can''t help but think that I have caused a lot of trouble."
Now, J wished she could turn back the hands of time. She hadn''t expected things to turn out
like this.
Stroking her hair tofort her, Ethan sealed her lips with a kiss. She was forced to swallow the
words she wanted to say.

The topmost agenda on Ethan''s list was to get rid of Jocelyn and Fiona once and for all.
But before he coulde up with a good n, he received a call from Garrett.
"Hey, buddy. I just found out something. You need to stop whatever you have nned. Did you
know that Jocelyn is Luke''s new mistress?"
Ethan''s eyes darkened immediately. He had heard that Luke had a lot of girlfriends, but he didn''t
expect that Jocelyn would be one of them.
"So what? How is that a big deal? Isn''t he fond of changing mistresses as if he''s changing clothes?
Or is he very serious with Jocelyn?" He sneered.
"Yes, he changes mistresses every now and then. But I don''t know if he''s serious with Jocelyn or
not. I honestly don''t think he would be with her for long. But that doesn''t change the fact that she''s
currently affiliated with him. You have to be very careful. I heard that Luke pulled some strings to
have Fiona released from prison. That means he can do anything for them because he likes
Jocelyn, at least for now. If you must do something to them, you have to tread with caution. That''s
all I can say," Garrett said seriously.
Ethan''s lips thinned into a grim line as he listened to this advice. As much as he hated to admit it,
Garrett was right. There was no mistaking that Luke was a formidable opponent. His powerful family
background and connections had been built decades ago. Ethan doubted if even Brandon''s identity
could stand a chance against such a man.
"Okay, I have heard all that you said. Now assign a skilled bodyguard to secretly follow J
everywhere she goes." Ethan''s fingers tightened until his entire arm ached due to the force. "Make it
a female bodyguard."
"Ha-ha! I have to say that I got more and more to take care of since you got married. Better give me
a raise, bro," Garrettmented jokingly.
Immediately after the call ended, he started searching for a skilled female bodyguard just as Ethan
had ordered. Although there was a battalion of excellent bodyguards, only a few of them were
women.
It was extremely hard to find the perfect one. But in the end, a female bodyguard was
rmended to him by a professional security organization called Shadow, which specialized in
the training of assassins and bodyguards.
Garrett personally went to the provided address to meet her.
Some people were on the training ground at this time. The ce was brightly lit and equipped with
different training objects. About twenty men were sparring with a woman. They were in a stalemate.
Garrett''s full attention was on the woman in dark purple tight clothes. She looked very young and
thin. Her waist was slender and she had a delicate appearance. She looked like one of those
women that any man would want to protect at first nce. None of her features indicated that she
was a good fighter.
With a slight frown, Garrett tore off his gaze and looked at the man beside him. "I find it rather
appalling that you have sunk this low. Don''t you have a heart? How can you allow twenty men to
fight such a delicate woman?"
The man smiled and replied, "Mr. Harding, please don''t let her looks deceive you. This woman is
Laney Garcia, the female bodyguard we rmended you on the phone. And the men are her
students. Although she looks delicate, she''s more experienced and stronger than many male
bodyguards in the industry. You should watch her in action."
Staring at the bare-faced woman, Garrettughed and uttered, "I should watch her in action? Are
you kidding me? What''s there to watch? She''s too thin to be a qualified bodyguard. Those men can
break her bones with just a punch!"
All of a sudden, Laney turned around and quit the training. She left the training area and walked
towards Garrett.
"Hey, did I offend you?" Garrett looked at her teasingly.
Laney, who had one hand at her back, signaled for Garrett toe forward with her other hand.
But before he could say or move an inch, she moved to him like lightning. Everything happened so
fast. The next thing Garrett knew was that his back hit the ground with a thud. The supposedly
delicate woman had knocked down a six-foot-tall man in a split second!
"Ouch!" A cry of pain escaped Garrett''s lips as hey on the ground.
Laney dusted her hands and said, "For your information, I can deal with twenty more men like you
using just one hand. Let''s just say you weren''t prepared. Do you want to go again?"
The pain was too much that it seemed Garrett''s spinal cord was broken. Biting his lips, he struggled
to get up. He then waved his hand and said, "No need. I will take you."
