At exactly 9 o'clock Dean woke up. He glanced around and looked lonely then got out of bed to go to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth. After that, he rushed out of the room looking for his wife and child around the villa.
After exploring several rooms which turned out to be empty and deserted, the man finally found his wife and child in the garden with the babysitter. He put a smile on his lips and walked over to them.
Bryana sat relaxed on a white chair while eating dessert and gazing at the beautiful view. There she saw that there were still many trees growing, some buildings were visible from above because the villa she was in was on a plateau.
"When are we going back to Jakarta, ma'am?" asked Dinda who was holding Aidyn in her lap.
"Probably the day after tomorrow after Raymond moved to his new house," Bryana replied, then fed a spoonful of chocolate chip-flavored dessert into her mouth. once in a while she gave the dessert to Aidyn who looked very eager to taste it but had not been allowed to consume too much of it because he was still a baby. "Tonight they will move into the new house. and tomorrow, there may be a celebration of the move as well as a celebration of Madeline's birth," she continued.
Dinda nodded in understanding then ate her pandan-flavored dessert.
"You guys are here," said Dean, who had just arrived. He immediately hugged Bryana from behind and kissed her cheek.
Dinda felt awkward, slightly shifting her position so that Bryana also shifted to make room for Dean. She returned to focus on eating dessert while holding Aidyn in her lap, who was cool playing a red toy sports car. .ah, maybe when he grows up, a sports car is his vehicle because he has a lot of wealth.
"It's very cool here. The scenery is cool and very suitable for a marathon. Too bad you even wake up late," said Bryana then fed Dean with his dessert.
"Tomorrow we're still here." Dean mashed dessert then said, "I'll wake up early and we'll run a marathon together. Let Aidyn be with Dany and Dinda." Dean turned to glance at Dinda who smiled shyly.
"Oh yeah right...Let's just say they are practicing taking care of their children because they talked about children last night," Bryana said with a chuckle, remembering last night overhearing Dinda and Dany's conversation.
"Oh? That means you two are getting married soon?" Dean looked at Dinda with a mocking smile.
"Ah, not yet. We still want to focus on work," said Dinda with a smile and bent her face. She was so shy, and her smile was so sweet. No wonder Dany was immediately interested in marrying her.
Drettt... Drettt...
The smartphone that was in her dress pocket rang, Bryana immediately took it and saw that there was an incoming call from Soraya. She immediately answered the call.
"Hello, Soraya."
"Bryana, have you seen the news on the internet today?" asked Soraya over the phone.
"What news?" Bryana frowned while Dean took her dessert and ate it.
"Carlos remarried to a girl prettier than Elsa."
Bryana wore a smile on her lips and rested her head on Dean's shoulder. "Oh about that I already know but I haven't seen the news that's on the internet."
"You should read it. I'll send you the link."
"Okay."
The phone line was cut off. Bryana looked at her smartphone and saw that there was a message via WhatsApp from Soraya. she saw the message was a link that showed a news page on the internet and then immediately opened the link.
A successful and famous businessman named Carlos Llorente Fransiskus who recently married a beautiful model named Elsa Fabiola, today held a simple wedding with another girl at a church in Jakarta. Regarding this, there is no certainty as to whether the cause of the man committing polygamy is because Elsa or himself has not confirmed __
"The news is too short and the problem of Vania's pregnancy is not known at all," Bryana muttered then sent a link to the news to Raymond. Ah, surely Raymond will be happy to see the news because of course Elsa is very hurt by the marriage.
"The news of the pregnancy was indeed hidden according to our agreement . . most importantly, he is willing to marry Vania and support her living expenses with her child," said Dean who had finished Bryana's dessert. He leaned his back on the chair and hugged Bryana from the side.
"But Vania is too beautiful for Carlos, who is such an asshole," Bryana mumbled, then showed him a piece of news that showed a photo of Carlos and Vania taking their vows at a church. "Look she's prettier and younger than Elsa. She deserves a better man."
"But she loves Carlos. Who knows, she can also change Carlos into a better person because everyone must have many good sides, not just be a monster for other people. Like Alex who has changed and now he lives in peace without disturbing our peace." Dean spoke with all his humility. Had he been evil and vindictive, he would have imprisoned either Alex or Carlos but instead given them a chance to be better.
Bryana nodded, understanding what Dean was saying. .because the path of peace chosen by her husband did show a positive effect on their relationship. But to be able to get along with Carlos, she still couldn't. Forgiveness is easy, but burying wounds is very difficult.

At home, Baron and Johan tied Elsa to the bed by tying her hands to the right and left sides of the headboard. The situation is worrying. she was silent dreamily lamenting her bad luck, even more, worried because she hadn't showered, her face was damp with tears, her hair was messy and he was even still wearing the pajamas from last night.
"GET OFF ME, BASTARD!" Elsa shouted while looking at Johan who was standing in front of the door.
"Ma'am. I can't let you go because this has been ordered by Mr. Carlos," Johan said with a flat look.
"What's the point of him tying me up like this? By now he must have married that bitch, right?.now let go of me, I'm not a crazy woman who deserves to be tied up like this!" Elsa spoke with emotion. She remembered how much anger Alex had at her, never treating her as badly as this.
"Sorry, ma'am… I just don't want you to do anything dangerous," said Johan.
"Do you think I'm going to kill myself or destroy everything in this house? I'm not that crazy, Johan! Now let me go. I want to take a shower... I'm hungry... I want to do other activities!"
"Sorry. I can't. Mr. Carlos will come soon and you will be released by him," said Johan then left Elsa alone in the room. He decided to leave because he didn't want to be instigated by Elsa's seduction or persuasion, which he also felt sorry for.
