Chapter 105 - Feeling Furious
At night, Raymond walked down the hospital corridor to the room where Dean was being treated. He is not alone, but together with Monica, who accidentally comes to see Dean give an important file.
"Monica," Raymond called.
"Why?" Monica said, walking casually.
"Since when has Bryana stop employment with Carlos?" asked Raymond.
"Since after they made a working visit in Bali," Monica replied, then remembered Soraya and Johnny's wedding party. "I've seen Carlos insult Dean and Bryana at Soraya's wedding," she continued.
Raymond stopped in his tracks then took Monica's hand to stop walking too. "Carlos insulted Dean and Bryana? Did he fight with Bryana?" He asked.
"I don't know," Monica replied and then let go of Raymond's hand. "Just ask Bryana. I have to turn this document over to Dean," she exclaimed and walked away from Raymond.
Raymond sighed, then walked after Monica. for some reason, seeing the woman he had married to cover up the failure of his relationship with Elsa made him feel sad and a little hurt. Wait! Does he have feelings for Monica after not believing in Kareen's love?

Arriving at the ward, Monica approached Dean, who had just taken medicine with Bryana, who was drinking special milk for pregnant women with a vanilla flavor variant.
"Dean," Monica said.
"Did you just come home or did you come from the apartment on purpose?" asked Bryana who sat on the chair on the right side of Dean's bed. She looked at Monica who was still wearing work clothes.
"I'm from the office. I just finished doing Dean's job," Monica explained with a warm smile. She gave a document to Dean. "Sign if you agree," she exclaimed.
dean nodded in understanding as he opened the document. He immediately read it casually leaning against the pile of pillows.
"Monica, you shouldn't have to work late because the office isn't safe," Bryana exclaimed.
"Everything is safe, many bodyguards have been deployed by Raymond on guard," said Monica who could not deny that Raymond's presence always made people around comfortable. The man is mature and protective. it made her unable to stop admiring him but she also couldn't keep hoping because that man was Kareen's lover.

Just as his name was mentioned, Raymond came into the ward. all eyes in the room stared at him for a moment, then returned to focus on their respective activities.
Dean signed the document he had read, then gave it to Monica. "Please control the company well as long as I can't work. I am very fortunate to have employees who are hardworking and honest like you," he exclaimed with a smile.
Bryana sighed, glanced at Raymond for a moment, then said, "That's why I made Monica the confidante in the office because she is better than Kareen."
"Kareen is also very professional, Bryana. Don't overdo it to me, I'm afraid to fly off and I can't go back to the mainland," Monica's series was interspersed with jokes.
Raymond silently glances at Monica, who still says that Kareen is quite professional even though that's not true at all. Even, after lunchtime, Kareen went nowhere without saying goodbye while Monica had to cover up her extremely unprofessional behavior.
'I seemed to have chosen the wrong girl to me, Kareen took advantage of my position as my lover by carelessly truant. how can I be this stupid?' Raymond thought then glanced at Dean, who was always the beginning of Kareen's attention. 'Is it true, Kareen just wants to stay close to Dean?'
Dean glanced at Raymond, who was staring at Monica in silence. "Raymond."
"Eh, yes. Why?" Raymond asked after snapping out of his reverie.
Bryana smiled amusedly and shook her head at her brother, as if her heart was saying, 'yes, just like Monica, because she's better than Kareen!'
"How was the progress of the incident yesterday?" asked Dean.
"The culprit is not Alex or a big enemy of the father's family. But the person who has a grudge against you and Bryana," Raymond replied guessing. he reached into the pocket of his leather jacket for a smartphone, then showed him a photo of a man wearing all black in front of the office. "He did it. From him, I got information that Carlos's bodyguard had talked to the man."
"Carlos? Was he the culprit?" Bryana frowned, while Monica chose to sit on the sofa and listen to the serious conversation.
"Most likely, if you have a problem with him or if Dean has a problem with him," explained Raymond casually. "What happened between you and him?" he asked.
"He's a crook, he's taken advantage of my trust in him as a co-worker," Bryana replied irritably.
"He's a rich man, how could he cheat?" Raymond still doesn't understand.
"He almost harassed Bryana twice, but I always prevented and beat him. Maybe he had a grudge because of that," said Dean with a look full of anger. he was annoyed at the thought of Carlos's passionate face when looked at Bryana. the man clenched his fists as if he wanted to punch something.
"He's trying to harass you, Jill?" Raymond gave Bryana a look of disbelief.
"It was a long time ago, even when Dean was my new bodyguard," Bryana explained angrily
.
"Oh, Damnn!!" Raymond growled at the thought of his sister being almost harassed. "Why didn't you tell me, Jill? It's a matter of pride!"
"I'm lazy to say it. It's very embarrassing and I don't want anyone else to find out," explained Bryana curtly. she glanced at Dean who was always her helper. "Anyway, I'm fine, because Dean is always there to help me."
"It's my duty," said Dean.
"You should have reported it to the police!" exclaimed Raymond, still angry.
"Yes, but suddenly he was just free and acting up again ... I thought he would stop acting up after Dean deterred him, but he attacked in a sneaky way like this!" Bryana chuckled annoyed at the thought of Carlos's face that used to almost touch her, making her shudder with nausea and not having the appetite to finish her half a glass of milk.
"I'll catch him with my own hands. I'll confirm it!" exclaimed Dean.
"Let the police catch him, Dean," said Raymond, turning to pity for Dean, who was the target of Carlos's crimes in defense of Bryana.
"No. Let's just leave him alone for a while. After I recover, I'll catch him myself!" exclaimed Dean furiously.
"All right, I'm with you," Raymond said.
Bryana let out a rough breath. "I think it was Alex. I was mad at him earlier."
Raymond turned to look at Bryana. "Have you seen Alex?"
"I accidentally ran into him here. It turned out that he was accompanying his wife who had just given birth, " explained Bryana.
"Disgusting couple!" growled Raymond. Yes, he still gets annoyed whenever he hears about Alex or Elsa. make him think back to the past when he was deceived by the love of Elsa who turned out to be Alex's lover.
Monica, who has been listening since earlier, remembers how Raymon asked to marry her because Elsa ran away with Alex. That memory made her regret not accepting Raymond, and now Raymond chose Kareen instead.. 'I wish time could turn back,' she thought with all her regret.
