Chapter 126 - Look Like The Real Terrorist
In the afternoon, Bryana was relaxing with Calvin and Sofia in the garden next to the house. Sometimes she takes pictures of himself, then invites her two children to take pictures with her.
"Mom, when the baby will come out of mommy's belly?" asked Calvin who was standing on Bryana's knees, while Sofia sat beside Bryana.
Bryana chuckled amusedly at Calvin. "It took a while for our baby to come out of mommy's belly. Even mommy's belly hasn't even grown."
"Yeah, Cal. A pregnant belly will get bigger before the baby comes out," said Sofia, who understood better.
Calvin nodded in understanding and remembered when his father came to attack his old house with his pregnant stepmother.
"So, like mommy Elsa?"
"Yes, later mommy's belly will grow because the baby grows in mommy's belly. When the time comes, will be born and become your playmate," Bryana explained patiently. Ah, the moment of giving knowledge to children is a happy moment.
Calvin nodded again in understanding, but this time it was Sofia who asked, "Besides, why do have to be in mommy's belly first? I've always been curious."
Bryana smiled amused but massaged her forehead because she was dizzy and didn't know what to answer. "Um, we'll ask dad for an explanation when he gets home from work. Now, you guys go inside and take a shower. Your bodies already smell," Bryana shouted to distract.
Sofia nodded then got up from the chair. she immediately jogged into the house through the yard with Calvin.
Bryana smiled seeing the two children who were not siblings but were very close. "They're so cute, Dean has to explain to them why I have a baby in my belly," she exclaimed, shaking her head at Calvin and Sofia who were slow out of sight since they had entered the house.
Tinn ... tin...
Bryana turned towards the gate when she heard the sound of a horn sounding. She saw the security guard immediately opened the gate until she saw a white luxury car walking into the yard.
"Whose car is that?" Bryana muttered because the car that came was not Dean's, Monica's, or the car that Dany used to take Kareen anywhere.
Continuing to be curious, Bryana got up from the chair and walked towards the car, and saw a middle-aged man get out of the car.
"Is this Dean Jackson's house?" asked the middle-aged man in neatly dressed and partly white hair.
"Yes, I'm his wife," Bryana answered then asked back, "who are you, do you need to talk to my husband?"
"I'm Sofia's grandfather," replied the man who turned out to be Gustave.
Knowing the fact that the man in front of her was Sofia's grandfather who had kidnapped Sofia, which made Dean panic, Bryana was worried that the man would come to take Sofia.
"Is Sofia here?" asked Gustave.
Before she could answer, Bryana's gaze shifted to the car that had entered the gate leading to the yard. The car stopped next to Gustave's.
"Dean," Bryana whispered then approached her husband who had just gotten out of the car.
Dean squinted at Gustave who suddenly came to his house after a long absence without disturbing Sofia again, but he remembered that Louis suspected that Alex's closeness with Gustave was to do evil to his family.
"What do you need here?" asked Dean sarcastically.
Bryana also put her arm around Dean's arm and remained silent even though she was worried about the situation that could heat up because her husband didn't like Gustave.
"Be respectful to me, Dean...Even though Clarissa is dead, you are still my son-in-law and I want to see how my granddaughter is doing," Gustave said casually.
"Don't act nice. What's your real goal? Do you want to take Sofia away from me? I'll never let that happen!" dean confirmed with his sharp gaze.
Gustave sighed. "You see I came alone, there's no way I can take Sofia away from you. You can beat me up or tell your bodyguards to kick me out. I came just to meet Sofia because I miss her," he said sadly.
Bryana looked at Gustave who was not acting suspiciously. She also understands someone's feelings when longing must be very sad when can't get the longing cure. She looked up at Dean who was still adamant not to let his in-laws see Sofia.
"Honey, I think he just wants to meet Sofia. Let it be, everything will be safe and Sofia will still be with us," Bryana whispered.
"He could be lying because he's so sneaky," Dean said warily.
"If I can't meet my granddaughter, that's fine. My late daughter would be very devastated if she was still alive and seeing her father not being allowed to see her granddaughter for a while," said Gustave sadly and was about to walk into the car.
Dean was silent for a moment and thought of Clarissa. "You can meet Sofia, but don't ever try to take her away from me," he said coldly.
."I told you I wouldn't take it from you," said Gustave firmly, but in his heart said, 'someday Sofia will be with me because she has a lot of legacy from Clarissa's grandfather.'
Dean and Bryana immediately entered the house along with Gustave. they let the middle-aged man meet Sofia, but the bodyguards outside guarded the security against the outside with vigilance. They were worried that the man would come alone but his men would suddenly attack.

Kareen was focused on her laptop. She had to finish her work so she could hurry home and make sure Bryana would drink the milk which she thought was still poisonous.
Drett... Drett...
Suddenly, her smartphone which was sitting on her desk rang. Kareen grabbed the phone and saw a call from an unknown number. She immediately answered.
"Hello, who is this?" Kareen asked when she was connected to the caller.
"It's me, the person you've asked to terrorize yourself. I ask for the money you promised!" shouted the person from the phone.
"Sorry, yesterday I forgot to transfer. Now send back your account number, I will transfer it this afternoon," Kareen exclaimed while massaging her forehead because she was dizzy. She was dizzy because she had to spend money on her crime whereas yesterday she had spent as much as 20 million rupiahs to redeem the poison from Siska.
"You don't think I'm stupid, I'm already in front of the gate of the office where you work. I want you to give me the money right now or I'll tell you all about the terror."
"I can't see you right now," Kareen shouted angrily.
"I don't care, I'll give you fifteen minutes!"
"It is impossible ...."
The phone line suddenly disconnected. Kareen exhaled harshly and massaged her forehead due to dizziness. Her intention to pretend to be terrorized instead felt that he was being terrorized by her messenger.
'I couldn't have seen him openly. Dany must be suspicious and report to Raymond that I met a guy, then Raymond gets jealous or angry, kicks me out of the dean's house. That can't be happening!" Kareen though.. She got up from the chair and walked back and forth looking for a solution to be able to meet the man without the knowledge of Dany who had become her bodyguard.
