Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

Elsa just woke up and glanced to the side where there was usually Carlos who always slept with her, but not at this time. It turned out that since last night her husband had not slept with her. The room she was currently in was still very messy filled with the contents of the pillows that were broken last night scattered on the floor and around the bed.

The woman sat up and stared lazily at the atmosphere of the room. She brushed her hair back then massaged her temples. Suddenly she felt she had to get out of bed and walk to the bathroom because her stomach suddenly felt sick. Ah, that must be the result of the young pregnancy she is currently experiencing.

After vomiting which was only a clear liquid, Elsa breathed a sigh of relief and leaned her head against the metallic bathroom wall. "Where is he? Could it be that he spent the night in the apartment with Vania? How dare he, he should have stayed with me and understood my feelings!"

Until several times Elsa vomited again and finally completely limp. She returned to the room and found Carlos who had just arrived completely disheveled, smelling of alcohol. Her husband was supine on the bed and still wearing his shoes with his shirt unbuttoned.

"Where have you been? You must have slept with her last night, right? It's useless to say you don't love her, refusing to accept the child she is carrying, but it turns out you're touching on her again!" Elsa immediately became angry, making Carlos who was invisible but closed his eyes open and glared at Elsa in annoyance.

"Why do you always accuse me?" Carlos asked annoyed.

"If you don't see her, then where have you been all night? Why don't you go home?" asked Elsa in a high-pitched voice?

"I just went to the club," Carlos replied curtly.

"To the club? Are you looking for a paid girl again, then accidentally get her pregnant, or will she set you up like Vania? Why do you like sowing seeds on wild girls?" Elsa was still accusing him to the point of upsetting Carlos and yelling at him,

"STOP!" Carlos shouted with a sharp look at Elsa.

"You married me just to hurt me!" Elsa said with teary eyes, her breath was unstable because her chest was slightly jerked in surprise at Carlos's attitude at her. She was disappointed and walked with limp steps towards the exit of the room until her tears fell without realizing it. Her heart ached so much remembering how Vania admitted that she was pregnant with Carlos's child, and Carlos also admitted that he had sexual relations with the girl many times, even to the point of being allowed to live in his apartment. It made her think that she did have a special place in her husband's heart.

Carlos exhaled roughly, letting Elsa go just like that. He immediately went to the bathroom and stripped off his clothes, letting the cold shower water wash over his stocky and fluffy body on the chest. Ugh, he's so sexy, but a jerk.

At another place ...

Vania is standing on the balcony in front of Carlos' apartment which is now her residence. She fell silent with happiness on her face, imagining that tomorrow she would marry Carlos. even though she only became a second wife and would be exiled, at least she had a chance to make that bastard succumb to her as time went on.

Ting... Tong...

The bell rang quite loudly. Vania rushed back inside and didn't forget to close the glass door leading to the balcony again. She walked through several rooms that were black and white and equipped with modern furniture until she arrived at the main door and immediately opened it.

"Max," said Vania when she found that her guest was Carlos's confidant.

"You better get ready, because I'm taking you to the boutique to buy a wedding dress," Max said casually. He entered the apartment without waiting to be invited in because he was already familiar with Vania.

"Will Carlos not accompany me?" she asked.

"I don't know. He just asked me to pick you up and take you to his family's favorite boutique. Maybe he'll follow," Max replied as he sat himself down on the gray sofa.

Vania sighed as she walked closer to Max. "Maybe he won't be with me. He must have been detained by his wife."

"Mr. Carlos is not a man to be restrained by a woman. Last night he had a big fight with his wife, then he just left and just came home this morning," explained Max, who has always been a witness to Carlos's life which is full of badness. "Mr. Carlos is an asshole, and assholes can't last long with a spoiled and selfish wife like Elsa," he continued.

"What do you mean by that?" she asked.

"I think the marriage between Mr. Carlos and Elsa will not last long because Elsa is a stubborn, selfish woman and she is very fierce. Surely Mr. Carlos will get bored with her, then choose you if you can melt his heart..you will get everything," explained Max looking at Vania who now looked a little thinner than before. Maybe because of the effects of being pregnant.

"I don't want what he has, Max. He's become my husband, I'm happy," said Vania, bending her face. ."You must be laughing at me, but this is the truth. I like a man who only makes me satisfied."

"What you feel is not wrong, Vania. Love can grow as you are often together. he is willing to take responsibility and provide a place to live for you, which means he has a little taste for you. I'm sure he'll prefer you over Elsa," Max said confidently. he believed that Vania might be able to change Carlos's messy life and stop being a jerk.

At the villa in Bandung.

Bryana escorted Dean who was going to the office to the front of the terrace. She carried Aidyn who had just finished breakfast.

"Don't forget to eat lunch," Bryana exclaimed.

"Of course, Honey. I'll call you while you're on break," Dean said with a smile then kissed Bryana's forehead, then turned to look at Aidyn who looked more and more like him.

"Don't be too fast either," Bryana exclaimed, glancing at Dean as if he didn't want to be left behind.

"You Why? Are you not willing me to go to work?" Dean asked in surprise, chuckling.

Bryan just nodded.

"Oh my... We'll see each other again this afternoon..we will only be separated for a while in another city," said Dean, smiling amusedly because Bryana was so spoiled.

"I don't like being away from you," Bryana said, leaning her head against Dean's chest.

"Yes, I know. .next time I will work from home as usual," Dean said as he embraced Bryana from the side then stroked her hair.

Bryana sighed, glancing at Aidyn who was tugging at Dean's tie. "remembering what had happened between us, made me afraid we'd be apart when we were apart. Especially now that there is no bodyguard protection. I'm afraid something will happen."

"Honey. We never know what God's plan is..we just need to pray and take care of each other as best we can so that we can stay safe, breathe and always be able to meet. Keep the trauma away and replace it with a sense of optimism," Dean exclaimed, understanding the feelings of Bryana who still has trauma from the incidents of a few months ago.
