Chapter 71 - Promises Harmony

Dean and Bryana came out of the bathroom into the walk-in closet with their endless laughter. Even when taking a bath together, the newlyweds laugh while talking about their children who are still very innocent and want a younger sibling.

"They're so cute, especially Calvin? .hahaha gosh! Why are they so innocent hahaha .... "Dean chuckled at Calvin's words, telling Sofia not to be sad because he and Bryana were going to make a baby for them.

Bryana smiled as she shook her head looking at Dean who was so handsome with a loose laugh. That laugh was rarely seen when he was still a bodyguard when he first met. She seemed to find another side to her husband.

"You make them think hard about how to make a baby. Don't be like that next time," Bryana exclaimed, stroking her still wet hair. She wore a white bathrobe with a rabbit on her back, while Dean only wore a towel at the waist.

"They will not think hard. They will be distracted by playing," said Dean, smiling grimly at Bryana. "By the way, I'll choose clothes for you today," he continued, opening the cupboard attached to the wall.

"Okay. I'll also choose clothes for you," Bryana said as she walked to the special wardrobe for Dean's clothes that she had provided a few days before the wedding. she bought a lot of clothes, especially for her husband.

After choosing their clothes, they moved to the main room and put on the clothes. Dean wore gray jeans combined with a casual cream top, while Bryana wore a cream-colored overalls dress that matched Dean's top. They look good together.

"I'll wait downstairs," said Dean as he walked out of the room.

"Yeah ..., '' Bryana said casually as she applied make-up to her face.

Dean walked down the stairs while glancing into the living room where Calvin and Sofia were sitting on the sofa watching TV with Raymond. he smiled and walked over to them after arriving on the ground floor.

"Have you had breakfast?" asked Dean while sitting next to Calvin.

"Yes, daddy. I was fed by an uncle," Calvin replied as he glanced at Raymond.

"Me too," Sofia said.

"Ah, next time you guys can't bother Uncle Raymond," exclaimed Dean uncomfortably. If Calvin was fed by Raymond, it would be normal because Calvin was the real nephew, while Sofia was not the nephew of the descendants of the Raymond family.

"It's okay, Dean. I like kids. So, it doesn't matter if I feed Sofia too. Sofia was my nephew from the moment you married Bryana," Raymond said wisely.

Dean smiled shyly and stared in awe at Raymond, who was not much different from Bryana, who had a humble and friendly attitude. It is very different as when he first met it seemed fierce and firm.

"Ah I also like kids. they are sometimes very funny if they don't understand something or want something strange," said Dean remembering Calvin who was still very innocent.

Raymond smiled with a sigh. "Yes, that's life being a child is very fun even if only given toys or snacks is sure to be happy. And we, who are adults, need something more than just toys," he said, who wanted a wife.

Dean nodded understandingly and stared at Raymond, who was not married at the age of 28 years. "Why aren't you married until now? You are handsome, well-established, and have everything. I'm sure a lot of girls want you to marry."

"I almost got married, but my lover was ambivalent." Finally, Raymond started talking. "Both with my sister's husband," he continued, sounding disappointed.

"You mean ... Alex?" Dean squinted at Raymond. Meanwhile, Sofia and Calvin are still focused on watching TV.

"Yes, they say they got married after taking a quarter of Bryana's wealth," said Raymond.

Dean remembers when he was invited to the boutique with Bryana when he met Alex who came with a pregnant woman. he tightened his jaw as he remembered Bryana's ex-husband said he would take Calvin away from Bryana.

And the fact that Alex had married the woman who was Raymond's lover and had already stolen a quarter of Bryana's wealth made Dean even more furious and resented him. moreover, he learned that Alex had also stabbed Bryana in the stomach and lost the fetus. Ughh, it's like he's found a new demon to exterminate.

"He's outrageous and cunning. Why is there a human-like him?" Dean growled in surprise, then glanced at Calvin, who was a descendant of Alex. "I hope you don't have the attitude of your father."

"I make sure Calvin will be a good boy because Bryana and the environment gave him a good upbringing. You can see for yourself that," said Raymond with a smile.

"Yes, he's very kind, even accepting me and accepting Sofia happily," said Dean while stroking Calvin's dense, slightly brownish hair.

Bryana walked down the stairs to the living room. She was already so beautiful wearing Dean's choice of dress, natural make-up, letting her hair loose, and wearing expensive cream sandals.

"Hey, what are you guys talking about so early?" Bryana walked over to Dean who was chatting with Raymon while Calvin and Sofia were focused on watching TV.

"We're just talking about you," Raymond said with a mocking smile.

Bryana looked suspiciously at Raymond. "Don't expose to disgrace, Brother."

"Hey, we're just talking mundane stuff. I'm not as bad as you think," Raymond shouted displeasingly with Bryana's gaze.

"Let's just go straight. The kids are running late," Dean exclaimed as he got up from the sofa.

"Come on, I also want to go to the spa after escorting them," said Bryana who may want a massage because her body is tired.

Calvin and Sofia immediately got off the sofa. they went to school in Dean's car with Bryana, while Lauren and Louis followed in another car. Samuel also came along, because he was going to look after Sofia.

During the trip, Dean glanced occasionally at Bryana, who looked relaxed staring at the roadside view from the windshield. while the children sat in the passenger seat.

"Honey," said Dean.

"Yes, why?" Bryana asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I love you." Dean held Bryana's hand with his left while his right hand focused on holding the steering wheel.

Bryana smiled with a reddish hue on her face. "There are kids. This isn't a time for making out."

"No matter how painful your past, I want you to believe that I won't do something like Alex did," Dean said firmly, then kissed the back of Bryana's hand. Sometimes he turned to look at his wife who was deceived by Alex's love, to the point of losing a quarter of her belongings, children, then a wounded heart left a deep sense of trauma. The man promised harmony with his wife who had failed a marriage.

"Why did you say so?" Bryana asked.

"Because I already know all of Alex's crimes. Raymond has told me about him and I will never let you get hurt again. By being chosen as your husband, I am very grateful."

"Yes, I believe you are much and much better than him.." Bryana smiled and glanced at Dean who had stolen her heart so that she could forget her hurt caused by Alx .
