Chapter 364 - Talk About The Incidents That Happened

Gasping for air from running too far while carrying Madeline, Monica approached Raymond who was in the car with Benny with the door open.

Raymond who recognized Monica's presence immediately got out of the car and hugged her along with their child. "Thank goodness you're safe."

Monica nodded her head and let go of Raymond's embrace. She turned to glance at Raymond's hand which was bleeding even though it was already tied with Benny's shirt. "Oh my God, your hand is badly injured we should go to the hospital immediately," she said worriedly.

"I'm fine. The important thing is that you and Madeline are safe," Raymond said with a smile but his face looked pale in a battered state. Maybe he's starting to lose blood and has been in pain for too long.

The police arrived and an ambulance also arrived. The nurse immediately gave help to Raymond while the police arrested Gio and his friend.

Raymond is taken to the hospital where Dean and Bryana are being treated. He was in the ambulance accompanied by Monica with Madeline and two nurses who cleaned his wound. Alex and the others followed to the hospital.

"I didn't think Gio would be this reckless," Monica muttered as she looked at Raymond who was being treated.

"I suspect ... Dean and Bryana's accident was his fault too," said Raymond, wincing in pain as he felt his hand which was badly injured by Gio's knife.

"It's possible. He almost shot me… He wanted my death because he wanted to see you suffer….in fact, he is my cousin ... we were always together as a child but now we hurt each other," Monica said sadly remembering how now she and Kareen or Gio seemed to have no hope of getting back together as a family.

"Hurt each other? Of course not. you didn't hurt them but they hurt you, hurt Bryana's and our family!" Raymond confirmed, then glanced at the nurse who was now putting a bandage on his hand. "I'm sure all of this, what happened to Dean and Bryana was the work of Gio and Kareen."

"But is it possible? Isn't Kareen still in jail?" Monica looked doubtful.

"I don't know, I haven't heard about her yet." Raymond let out a shaky breath. Relieved that he was safe, his wife and children were fine, he turned to his thoughts on the fate of Dean and Bryana, which had not been heard at all.

Dean has been moved to a dedicated two-room VVIP room because Bryana wants to rest nearby. ..his wife was still awake lying on the bed beside him, watching as if she was afraid that something like before would happen again, especially since he was not yet fully stable and was still breathing with the help of an oxygen cylinder.

"Honey, you have to sleep….You need to rest," Dean whispered, looking at Bryana who was lying on the bed about two meters away from him. His wife was on her side facing him and had changed into a light blue hospital gown.

"I'm not sleepy," Bryana said with teary eyes. The fear of losing made her cry and cry again.

Dean sighed, looking up at the white ceiling. he turned back to Bryana and said, "I will stay safe because the security must have taken care of Kareen ... There are provided special security facilities for us."

"I'm afraid you're having trouble breathing again," Bryana said sadly.

"I'll be fine. Calm down...

I'm not going to sleep, I'm going to stay awake," Dean said with a reassuring smile.

Bryana no longer responds. She just kept quiet until Dean was also silent and continued to stare at him until finally, Bryana fell asleep because she was also under the effect of sleeping pills that were deliberately given by the doctor to make her rest.

Check...

Raymond and Monica who were carrying Madeline entered Dean and Bryana's treatment room. They saw a husband and wife lying on their respective beds.

"Oh my God..." Raymond approached Dean who smiled at him with such a sad look.

"I almost died..." Dean muttered. He stared at Raymond's bandaged hand and his battered face. "Why did you get hurt? Who hurt you?" he asked.

"Kareen's brother," Raymond replied then sat in the chair beside Dean's bed.

Dean sighed, silent remembering he almost died because of Kareen. It turned out that Raymond had also been attacked by her younger brother as if they had conspired. "Maybe the accident that happened to me was also because of them," he said.

"You mean?" Raymond looked clueless.

"My car brakes failed ... And when I had an accident and was taken to the hospital maybe by the locals, Kareen tried to kill me," Dean explained in his hoarse, powerless voice.

"Then, what about Bryana? Are there any serious injuries... Is the pregnancy okay?" This time it was Monica who asked while looking at Bryana who was sleeping on her side, curled up to face Dean. She had put the sleeping Madeline on the yellowish-white sofa in this room.

"She's fine. But she's in her early pregnancy, it's making her weaker..." Dean stared intensely at Bryana. "She hasn't had breakfast since either."

"What did Kareen do to you?" Raymond asked.

"She disguised as a nurse and pulled out my oxygen tube. Maybe if Jill hadn't woken up and knew my plight, I would have...." Dean recalled the time he was struggling to breathe until he fell unconscious.

"She snake woman!" Raymond growled.

Monica flinched because Kareen was throwing up again, making her ashamed to have a cousin as bad as her. "She's gone too far, just like Gio. They don't want to be punished for their evil deeds, then take revenge on us!" Monica remembered that Madeline was almost shot too.

Dean let out a shaky breath. Feeling uneasy, the stage is so uncomfortable considering everything Kareen does is just because he doesn't love her back. "Kareen is like this because I never reciprocated her feelings…because of my fault, you guys are also victims, even my wife...she was very scared."

"Kareen is like that because her heart is indeed filled with evil, rotten, full of jealousy and unwarranted revenge. It's as if she doesn't mind being imprisoned!" said Raymond angrily then stood up.

"Where are you going?" Monica asked holding Raymond's left arm.

"To the police station to make sure she'll be in jail longer than before," Raymond answered breathlessly because of his fiery emotions.

"You are still weak….Let Louis and Alex take care of this matter," Monica exclaimed pleadingly.

"Alex?" Dean frowned.

"Yes. Alex helped Louis when he saved me from the brutality of Gio who almost shot me," Monica explained.

"He saved you?" Raymond squinted at Monica as if he couldn't believe what he was saying.

"Yeah. Alex saved me, because if he came late, maybe Gio would have shot me," Monica explained then sat on the edge of the bed where Bryana was sleeping. "He has indeed changed for the better, even willing to sacrifice for our family. It's good you forgive all his mistakes so that there will be no more awkwardness or conflict between us and him," she continued looking at Raymond.

"Forgiveness will make you relieved….living without strife and grudges at heart will make our family comfortable," Dean said hopefully. He hoped Raymond would stop hating Alex.

Raymond just silently thought about Dean and Monica's advice. He walked over to the sofa and sat down next to Madeline.
