Chapter 170 Be My Personal Bodyguard
Matthew was surprised to run into Willow at the hotel.
When he was working as the head of the security team at Willow’s previous company, his mother had been hospitalized. Her medical bills were more than he could afford, and when he first started asking for donations, Willow helped him.
She had given him a sum of money to use for his mother’s treatment without asking for anything in compensation.
Later on, Matthew had to leave the company so that he could take care of his family.
Still, he never forgot the kindness Willow had shown him. Now that she was in danger today, he immediately came forward to help her.
“How dare a security guard like you interfere? Do you want to lose your job? Nicholas roared
in anger when he saw that a security guard employed by his own family’s hotel had come to stop him.
Nicholas‘ subordinates were unbothered by Matthew’s presence. They did not think he could stop them.
“What are you doing? Let go of Willow at once! We’re living in a lawful society! If you don’t release her, I’ll call the authorities!” Matthew yelled.
“You really don’t know what’s good for you, huh? Teach that security guard a lesson!” Nicholas roared impatiently. His desire to take Willow and Miranda for himself was so overwhelming that he did not want to waste any more time on Matthew.
Nicholas‘ subordinates swiftly rushed forward.
“Matthew, leave quickly! Find a way to call the authorities! Let the inspectors come and rescue us!” Willow cried out frantically when she saw Matthew charging over alone.
Nicholas‘ men numbered more than 20. Matthew could not go up against them. It was better to report the case to the authorities instead.
Willow thought he was their only hope of avoiding this terrible fate.
“Don’t worry, Willow! These
thugs can’t defeat me!” Matthew declared confidently.
Willow had done him a huge favor. He could not possibly stand back and let something. horrible happen to her.
Alas, he had no time to waste. His phone was still in the security room. If he tried to call the Inspector General’s office now, by the time they arrived, it would be too late.
Plus, Matthew did not think much of Nicholas‘ subordinates. He was sure he could deal with.

Willow did not expect such a show of confidence from Matthew. He was set on taking on Nicholas‘ men by himself.
This left her feeling rather exasperated. She thought Matthew was being too reckless.
Miranda was startled, too. She did not know how Willow and Matthew were acquainted. Her only concern now was whether or not Matthew could truly defeat so many opponents and save
them.
In the blink of an eye, Nicholas‘ men had reached Matthew.
The first to arrive immediately threw a punch at Matthew’s face.
Matthew did not back down. He swung his fist right back at his assailant.
There was a loud crack, followed by a howl.
Matthew had shattered the arm of the b*dyguard who attacked him, and the man was sent flying backward.
Willow and Miranda were stunned.
To their amazement, Matthew was indeed an adept fighter. That explained why he was confident enough to challenge Nicholas‘ men despite being outnumbered.
Willow suddenly recalled that Matthew once mentioned he was trained in martial arts.
Nicholas was astonished when he saw Matthew defeating one of his men with a single punch.
When did such a formidable person join the hotel’s security team?
The rest of Nicholas‘ subordinates were stupefied as well.
However, they did not retreat. Instead, they charged as a group.
In spite of the number of assailants he was up against, Matthew showed no fear. He barreled
into the crowd.
Cries of agony rang out repeatedly.
None of the b*dyguards could hold a candle to Matthew.
Though they were greater in number, the location limited what they could do, and they could not fully gang up on Matthew together.
Plus, the fight only seemed to excite Matthew. He became more and more ferocious as the fight went on!
Nicholas watched as his men were defeated one by one. His expression slowly turned grim.

It had been a flawless plan. He was only one step away from getting what he wanted. Who would have thought that such a skilled security guard would show up at the hotel?
Who was this man? Why did he not know about him?
If Nicholas had known that such an expert fighter was working for the hotel, he would have hized the man as his personal b*dyguard!
On the other hand, Willow and Miranda were thrilled to see that Matthew was gaining the upper hand in the fight.
Just moments ago, they felt nothing but despair, but Matthew’s arrival had given them hope.
Within minutes, Matthew had defeated all of Nicholas‘ men.
With blazing eyes, he clenched his fists and marched toward Nicholas.
The b*dyguards remained on the floor with pained expressions. They could not even stand up, let alone protect Nicholas.
Nicholas trembled in fear as he watched Matthew approaching.
It was a familiar sight that reminded him of what happened the last time Caspian taught him a lesson.
Nicholas thought he had eliminated all the possible things that could go wrong this time. He did not expect a security guard to throw a wrench into his plan.
Once the women saw that Matthew had defeated all the men, they were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
“W–What are you doing?” Nicholas asked fearfully.
“You bastard! Why are you trying to harm Willow?” Matthew questioned ferociously.
“It’s just a misunderstanding! I only wanted to escort them up to the suite,” Nicholas said shakily.
“Do you take me for a fool? I saw everything you did just now! You wanted to assault Willow!” Matthew said with a stormy expression.
Knowing that Matthew would not be fooled by his lies, Nicholas changed tactics. He said, ” Hey, man. Let’s just talk, yeah? This hotel belongs to my family. I’m the oldest son of the Archer family.
“You look like a good fighter. It’s such a waste for you to be a security guard. Why don’t you be my personal b*dyguard? I promise that you’ll have a life of luxury! It’ll be ten thousand times better than being a security guard!”
“Hah! Don’t even think about it! Who would want to be a personal b*dyguard to someone like

Furthermore, Willow had helped him out a lot in the past. He could not betray her for selfish
reasons.
“Think carefully, now. Not everyone gets this chance, you know,” Nicholas advised. He had a feeling that money would make Matthew sing a different tune.
As long as he managed to get Matthew on his side, his plan would not fail.
He could take Willow and Miranda up to the hotel suite and ravage them.
Nicholas did not want to miss such a one–in–a–million opportunity.
“If you become my personal b*dyguard, I can give you an advance of three million as your annual salary, and you’ll get an increment every year! If you say yes, I’ll transfer the money to you right away!”
Nicholas offered the sweetest deal he could think of.
