The Bodyguard I Can't Have

81 Episodes

To ruin the Sterling family for destroying her own, Elena made a cold-blooded deal: marry their comatose CEO, Liam Sterling. As his wife, she’d have the legal power to dismantle his empire from the inside. For two years, she played the grieving widow perfectly, all while systematically bankrupting his legacy. The only ghost from her past was Adrian, her former bodyguard and secret love, who vanished the night her life fell apart. She buried her heart with him. Then, Liam wakes up. And he’s nothing like the monster she expected. Charming, protective, and genuinely drawn to his "devoted" wife, he vows to give her the world she was "denied." Elena’s revenge plot crumbles under the weight of his kindness. Just as she’s considering calling off her war, Adrian storms back into her life. He confesses he was forced to leave to protect her from a threat within the Sterling empire—a threat that is still very much alive. Now, Elena is trapped between two men. Liam offers a real future, a chance to leave the past behind. But every touch from Adrian reignites the fire she tried to extinguish. As she hesitates, the hidden enemy makes their move, framing Elena for corporate sabotage. To clear her name and survive, she must decide whose side she’s really on: the husband who represents a peaceful lie, or the ex-bodyguard who holds the dangerous truth. One wrong move, and she’ll lose everything—including her life.
