Chapter 121 - Bryana's Wishes
Monica has taken a shower and looks more eccentric by wearing white jeans combined with a pink shirt with a golden butterfly on the chest. She let down her brown hair and polished her face with natural make-up.
"I have to go shopping now, as well as buy a new smartphone. I shouldn't have slammed my old smartphone, because there's a lot of important data in it. It's going to be a hassle taking care of emails and others," Monica muttered cursing her own mistake.
Feeling tidy, Monica immediately took her branded bag which was brownish-white, then took the car keys. She immediately walked out of the room down the hall to the living room and heard a knock on the door.
Tokk... Tokk
Monica immediately opened the door and saw a fairly handsome bodyguard with a thin mustache standing in front of her
"Good afternoon, Miss," the bodyguard greeted.
"You...Samuel is Sofia's special bodyguard, right?" Monica confirmed.
"Yes, miss..Mr. Dean asked me to pick you up," Samuel explained with a flat look.
"Pick me up?" Monica pointed at herself in surprise. "What is going on?"
"I don't know either, Miss. You'd better come with me to meet Mr. Dean and Mrs. Bryana. they're waiting for us at a restaurant," said Samuel.
Monica was silent for a moment. She didn't understand why Dean had asked a bodyguard to pick her up. She has done her job well. Then why are Dean and Bryana also waiting for her?
"Sure, I'll meet them, but I drove my car," said Monica.
"Okay, Miss," Samuel replied then stepped back and let Monica out of the apartment unit.
Monica immediately locked the door, then walked down the corridor to the elevator rather hurriedly followed by Samuel. 'What's going on? Is this about Kareen now living in their house? But, isn't it just me, Raymond, and Dany who know Kareen's evil intentions?' her mind is full of questions.

At the restaurant, Bryana enjoyed eating beef rib soup and goat satay without eating rice. sometimes she fed Dean who was already full because he had finished every portion of his order while Calvin and Sofia enjoyed dessert while looking at the fish.
"I thought I have to buy an aquarium to put in the house. Look, they like seeing those beautiful fish," Bryana exclaimed, glancing at Sofia and Calvin.
"The aquarium is not big enough. It's better to get people to make a pond as well. I'll buy koi fish to inhabit the pond," said Dean casually, because he had finished eating.
Bryana feeds Dean with goat satay. This was the umpteenth time that the woman had fed her husband even though he was full. "I prefer the aquarium. When our babies are born will like to see an aquarium with ornamental fish in it. I already imagined that" she said with an amused smile.
"Then we buy a large aquarium and also make a pond in the garden next to the house. Let's be fair," Dean exclaimed as he ate the satay that Bryana was feeding again. "Honey, I'm full."
"But I want to feed you," Bryana said in a spoiled tone.
"But I'm already full. Even since earlier I saw you only eat a little and instead feed me continuously. It's like... I'm the one who ate your food," Dean said a little annoyed. He had intended to eat less fatty foods because his six-pack stomach was a bit fat, instead, he was fed continuously.
"I'm already full. I also really like watching you eat. So, take a bite from me," Bryana exclaimed, feeding Dean again with six skewers of satay still available.
"You like watching me eat? Why is that?" asked Dean in surprise as he ate the satay.
"I have no idea. I'm full just by watching you eat voraciously," Bryana replied with an amused smile. "Maybe this is the effect of my pregnancy."
"Is that true?" Dean looked incredulous.
"Maybe. Because it feels so good to feed you." Bryana again fed Dean with the satay.
"Your cravings are so weird. At this rate, I'm going to get fat," Dean muttered.
"Hahaha...." Bryana chuckled looking at the sullen Dean. "That doesn't matter. Instead, we will be balanced. My stomach is fat from being pregnant and your stomach is fat from eating a lot. later when I give birth, we exercise together to slim down again," she continued casually.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want. Because I don't want my baby to pee when it a few months old," Dean replied with a sigh of relief. because he had no choice.

After a few minutes of driving, Monica and Samuel arrived at the restaurant where Bryana and Dean were eating. They immediately got out of the car and walked into the monochrome restaurant.
"Bryana," said Monica when she saw Bryana from five meters away.
Hearing her name being called, Bryana immediately turned and looked at Monica who was walking towards her. "Monica."
Bryana got up from her seat and greeted Monica by embracing her because she had not seen each other for a long time. "Are you okay? Your number is off, I'm really worried about you."
"You see for yourself I'm fine." Monica let go of Bryana's arms and smiled at her. "What's wrong? Aren't you usually so worried about me?"
"Now have a seat, I'll explain," said Bryana as she sat down, as did Monica who also sat beside Bryana.
"Raymond said you were in danger, he wanted you to stay with us," Dean said flatly.
Monica was silent, not understanding because she wasn't in any danger at all. It was Raymond who suddenly kisses her in the elevator.
"He texted me, take a look," Bryana exclaimed, pointing to a message from Raymond that read:
__Bryana, look at Monica's condition. make sure that she's okay because a dad said there's a possibility that dad's business rivals in Jakarta want to destroy our company by deterring Monica and stop helping manage our company. I hope you can invite her to stay at your house because I'm really worried about her___
Monica fell silent after reading the message. There is relief and there is a disappointment. 'If he asks me to stay at Bryana's because he's worried about me, I feel loved. but maybe this is all just a trick so I don't bother trying to find a reason to stay at Bryana's house and watch over Kareen,' she thought quietly.
"I hope you will live with me, Monica. Because only you and Soraya are my friends swapping stories. Soraya rarely comes and I rarely see you because I'm not working anymore. I feel lonely, and now I don't feel right at home because of Kareen. I want you to accompany me when you're not working." Bryana said with a pleading look to express the restlessness she had been hiding since when Kareen lived in her house.
"Honestly ... I prefer Raymond to make you my sister-in-law. But instead, he chose Kareen, who is good at acting," Bryana continued angrily.
"Honey, don't force a mate. We also don't know how Monica feels, her personal life, who knows she already has a boyfriend," Dean said, glancing at Bryana, who lately has always wanted to get what she wanted in any way.
"You defended Kareen?" Bryana looked at Dean a little annoyed.
"That's not what I mean. But the matter of who is Monica or Raymond's mate, let them decide. You also have to think about Kareen's feelings if Kareen wants to be serious with Raymond. who knows she has stopped chasing me and has moved on," explained Dean.
"I don't want him to be with Kareen. Besides, why are you defending Kareen? Even though she's only been in our house for a day and you started defending her." Bryana is getting annoyed with Dean. the sensitive nature of being pregnant seems to be easily ignited just because of trivial things.
Dean scratched his head non-itchy. He looked at Bryan in surprise, who was angry with him.
Seeing Bryana who was about to misunderstand and argue just because of Kareen's presented decided, Monica, to stay with them to prevent Kareen from continuing to approach Dean and break Dean and Bryanaq's household relationship.
"Okay, I'll stay with you, Bryana. I'm happy because I don't have to pay rent for an apartment anymore," Monica exclaimed with a smile. She really couldn't bear it if Bryana would fail to marry again just because of a third person.. Ah, Monica is indeed a good and caring sister-in-law.
