Chapter 39 - Bodyguard Jealousy

When it was two o'clock in the afternoon, Dean and Monica were sitting on the red sofa in the living room of Bryana's house. Bryana and Kareen were in the workspace having a meeting with a man named Vincent who also brought his secretary.

Dean glanced at the door to Bryana's workroom, which hadn't opened yet even though it had been about 45 minutes of meeting with the client. He felt uneasy at the thought that the client, who was a man his age and handsome looks, would like Bryana too. Remembering Carlos who was also crazy about his employer, the bodyguard felt that other men could also feel the same way because his employer was very charming.

'What they do so long? What if that man also plans to approach Jill, seduce Jill, and Jill will also be interested?' Dean said in a huff.

Monica, who had been playing with her smartphone, glanced at Dean because she was restless and turned to the door to Bryana's workspace.

"Dean," Monica called.

"Yes," said Dean, raising his eyebrows at Monica.

"Why are you uncomfortable, they're a problem with Mrs. Bryana?" Monica asked as she glanced at the door to the workspace which was located about ten meters from where she was sitting.

"No, I just don't want Jill to get clients who take advantage of the opportunity," Dean replied.

"Jill?"

"Uh, I mean Mrs. Bryana." Dean looked away. Again, he spoke up calling Bryana by her special nickname in front of other people.

Monica nodded in understanding and glanced at Dean's battered face. "What's with your face?"

"Getting beat up by people," replied Dean without turning his head.

"Is it because of Mrs. Bryana?" asked Monica again. Gosh, she suddenly became an impromptu reporter. Makes the nervous Dean even more uncomfortable.

"Yes, this is because of Carlos who wanted to be rude to Mrs. Bryana. I am also worried about the new client. maybe he's no different than Carlos," explained Dean curtly. He glanced back at the door to Bryana's workspace.

Monica narrowed her eyes at Dean who looked displeased as another man approached Bryana. The blonde-haired girl began to sniff out the jealousy that the handsome bodyguard was feeling. She also smiled and tried to provoke the bodyguard's honesty.

"So what if that guy approaches Mrs. Bryana? I don't think all men will be as rude as Carlos looks like Mr. Vincent is a nice, polite person, and he is very handsome."Monica began to provoke Dean's confession.

Dean frowned as he glanced at Monica. "It is okay."

"You're jealous, right?" Monica guessed while glancing at Dean with a teasing glance.

"No," said Dean, then looked away.

"Hahaha you're bad liars" Monica chuckled instead while pointing at Dean.

"I am not lying!" Dean insisted with a cynical look. he immediately got up from the sofa and was about to go to the room because he had to take the medicine that he kept there.

Monica felt anxious at Dean's apparent jealousy. she was very sure that the handsome bodyguard was in love with her boss, she even remembered when her boss chose the bodyguard as a dance partner. The woman is getting more and more annoyed by the two lovebirds who are not related or not.

"Dean!" called Monica when Dean was about five meters away from her.

Dean turned to stare lazily at Monica. "What now?" he asked curtly.

Monica got up and walked over to Dean. She sighed, then said. "If you like her, just say it. I know you guys like each other."

"Don't be funny, because it can't happen," said Dean then walked back to his room.

Monica shook her head and smiled at Dean who seemed to avoid her. "Don't just because your status is different, one of you is unable to express your love. It's a shame when someone likes each other but can't belong to each other. It will be very painful because it throws away the chance to live happily!"

Dean was silent for a moment at the door of his room. He could hear what Monica was saying. it made him ponder and try to understand what he should be doing.

Monica also walked to Bryana's office because she had received orders by telephone to enter immediately.

Dean turned to look at Monica who was walking towards the workspace. 'Is it true that she said Bryana and I like each other? Is it possible that a woman in Bryana's class would like Clarissa like before? I'm really afraid what happened in my past will happen again. Moreover, Bryana also has a lot of enemies from the top and is very dangerous.' Dean said to himself. He immediately went to the room to take medicine.

In her workspace, Bryana shakes hands with Vincent, who says goodbye because they have finished the meeting.

"I'm so glad to work with you, Mrs. Bryan's. Our products will be of higher quality and growing rapidly in the market," said Vincent, who has a manly posture but is not like Dean. He has a thin mustache, very neat hair, wears a gray tuxedo suit combined with a black tie the man's face was handsome and a little foreign.

"I make sure our move will be successful, Mr. Vincent," Bryana replied with a friendly smile, then took her handshake at Vincent.

Vincent breathed a sigh of relief, then got up from the chair. he walked out of the room followed by Bryana. Kareen and Monica also immediately came out with Vincent's secretary who was a handsome man with a typical Asian face.

Arriving in the living room, Vincent stopped and looked at Bryana. "Can't I come here for a gathering?" he asked later.

"Uh, of course. But call me first if you want to come here," Bryana exclaimed, then glanced at Dean who was standing near Kareen and Monica. he was making the bodyguard jealous who had just finished taking the drug.

"Ah yes. Then I have to leave now." Once again, Vincent shook hands with Bryana.

Dean frowned when he saw Vincent's clear signs of approaching Bryana. he also let out a rough breath, making the two women beside him stare at him strangely.

'Hahaha he must be jealous.' Monica cheered to herself when she saw Dean grinning at Vincent who was being led by Bryana to the front door of the living room.

Kareen who had been watching Dean was curious because Dean's face was battered. She felt pity and felt the face of the handsome bodyguard that he had liked for a long time. Ughh, how presumptuous she is!

"Dean, who beat you up like this?" she asked worriedly.

"Nobody," replied Dean as he pushed Kareen's hand off his face. He immediately walked into the living room as if he was going to catch up with Bryana.

Monica frowns as she glances at Kareen who seems to like Dean. Gosh, she's witnessed a love triangle!

'Dean likes Mrs. Bryana, so Mrs. Bryana likes Dean. And now what I see, Kareen is paying attention to Dean who she has known for a long time, but Dean is very snappy.. Oh my God, why is it so complicated? ' Monica thought. she scratched her un itchy head while glancing at Kareen who was grumbling at being ignored by the bodyguard
