Chapter 268 - Man Who Grabs Someone's Wife

Alex met Carlos who was waiting for him in the living room of his house, which had a black and white nuance with white walls interspersed with black at the corner of the ceiling, there was a decorative cupboard, red jars, and some other modern furniture. he was sitting on the plain red sofa, staring at his guest who looked immaculate in a gray suit.

"Carlos," said Alex.

"How are you, Alex... I'm so sorry I just found you after so long." Carlos showed a caring attitude. I don't know what he's planning.

"As you can see, I'm fine and feeling a lot better than before," Alex said with a little smile.

"You are so thin, how can you say you feel better instead?" Carlos asked, frowning.

"I've realized that what I've done all this time was a mistake, and God rewarded me directly. The suffering that I went through for three months might not be able to pay off all my mistakes in the past," Alex explained while remembering how he was tortured by Fin and Lucas while being held captive. he realizes that he has many sins for his betrayal to Bryana, making Bryana lose her fetus, seizing property, kidnapping, and depressing Calvin, and also working with Carlos to harm Bryana and her father.

"I'm sorry I asked you to shoot the car it turns out that Bryana's father died because of it. maybe she'll hate me even more if she finds out I'm the mastermind behind the shooting," he continued angrily.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you care about Bryana? Don't you want to destroy her life, get her fortune through your son?" asked Carlos in surprise.

"I don't know. I don't dare to commit a crime against her. She's a good woman, better than Elsa," Alex replied, comparing Elsa to Bryana.

Carlos smiled sarcastically as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing. "You changed drastically, even praising her instead of your wife. What happened? Do you want her to be your wife again?" he asked.

"No, there's no way I can get it back. I don't deserve her," Alex replied, then sighed, staring blankly at the urn. "I'm going to focus on my new life. Trying to live peacefully with.

out trying to disturb the comfort of others. I will look for a new job," he continued...

"Does Elsa know about this?" Carlos asked.

"Sometimes she still doesn't accept it, she's still greedy and money-making," Alex replied lazily.

Carlos nodded his head as if he understood the situation between Elsa and Alex. 'Elsa must be very disappointed in Alex. I can use this to distract her. She will choose me over her husband who still boasts of his ex-wife,' he thought with an evil shadow.

"I hope you don't bother Bryana anymore. Forget your enmity with her and also Dean," exclaimed Alex who suddenly had an angelic heart.

"For that, I will think about it," said Carlos then asked, "have you thought about where you will work?"

"Not yet," replied Alex.

"Just work in my company, be my confidant," Carlos said casually.

Alex looked seriously at Carlos who suddenly offered an important position in his company. "Are you serious?" he asked.

"I'm serious because you are my friend. I'm a bit busy managing my company. I need you to help me, but you have to be serious. Don't let you work negligently and my company will go bankrupt like your old company," said Carlos.

"Okay then, I'll work with you," Alex said with a relieved smile.

Carlos smiled casually with a wild image in his mind. I don't know what he's planning, maybe Alex will swallow the bitter pill of life from now on.

fin packs some of his clothes into a suitcase, then takes them out of the room. He walked briskly down the room in Gustave's mansion where he lived.

"Fin!" called Lucas.

Fin turned to stare lazily at Lucas who approached him with an angry look. "Don't stop me, Lucas!"

"You're crazy! Your father desperately fought for revenge to make Bryana suffer, but now you want her instead to become a wife. how can you think so selfishly, when your father gave everything he had to you, but this is what you're getting back!" Lucas looked at Fin in surprise who looked clueless.

"Revenge is none of my business anyway, it was his fault for never introducing himself as my real father. I don't love him as a father and I don't feel the need to avenge him. He's dead, there's nothing I need to do for him!" Fin confirmed his love for Bryana made him unable to think straight. Even now he wants to meet her, looks at her beautiful face every day, then slowly tries to get his attention...

"You are a son who doesn't know how to be filial!" Furious Lucas.

fin chose to remain silent and continued his steps towards the exit of the house. He walked out of the gate to the taxi that was waiting for him and was about to take it to Bryana's house.

Arriving at the house, Bryana went straight to Aidyn's room while Dean rushed to the dining room because he wanted to eat soon.

Bryana washed her hands first, after that she went to her son who was in his grandmother's lap.

"Is he cranky, Mom?" Bryana asked, grabbing Aidyn from her mother-in-law's lap.

"He was a bit fussy when you just left, but mother managed to calm him down," answered Lily looking sadly at Aidyn who looked lethargic. The baby is a typical baby who smiles and doesn't cry easily.

Bryana sighed, looked sadly at Aidyn who was now in her arms, then kissed him. "Maybe he sensed what was happening to me, Mom," she said.

"What happened?" asked Lily.

"When I was on my way to the dermatologist's clinic, there were some thugs who stopped me. Dany fought them and she was injured. I was almost taken by them if no one helped me," Bryana explained, remembering what happened this morning.

"Oh my God, did they hurt you or...?" Lily looks worried

"No, mom. I'm fine but Dany had to undergo surgery because the wound was quite severe from being hit with a rock by the thugs," said Bryana while cradling Aidyn.

"What a pity. After so many months this family feels peaceful, something else is troubling. Even Dany was the victim and was seriously injured," Lily muttered sadly.

"I don't know, Mom. I don't know why anyone else is disturbing the comfort of this family," Bryana said nervously.

"You have to calm down, just think about your baby. Let this matter be Dean's responsibility," Lily cried then got out of bed.

Bryana nodded and let her in-laws go. She turned to look at her son who was slowly whining and patting her chest, a sign of wanting to be breastfed.

"You must be thirsty and worried about mommy? mom is here now, and we will be fine because Daddy will always take care of us along with the other bodyguards," said Bryana looking at Aidyn who looked cute wearing a yellow dress with a Spongebob motif. She immediately breastfed the baby while lying on the bed because she was tired and wanted to calm herself down by resting with the baby.
