Chapter 7 - Giving Attention

Bryana sat beside Dean so that she could be closer and easier to treat the wound.

"I didn't think that someone would try to kidnap me again, but never before," Bryana muttered as she looked down to clean Dean's wound with a cotton swab that had absorbed the alcohol.

"Were you always safe before?" Dean asked, occasionally glancing at Bryana who looked close to his body, he could feel the scent of rose-smelling perfume from her employer's body.

"Yes, ever since Raymond came here, all the mess has happened a lot and I think it's Alex's doing," Bryana replied.

"Alex is your ex-husband?"

"Yes, you already know?"

"Mr. Raymond has sent data on it."

Bryana sighed, stared at taking some plaster from the first aid kit, then sticking it over Dean's wound so that it closed.

"Already completed."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

Bryana closes the first aid kit, then sits back on the chair next to him, so he is currently facing Dean.

Dean was silent and occasionally glanced at Bryana, who was playing with her cellphone. until a few moments, after the order came, they immediately ate together without any chat.

Now and then Bryana glanced at Dean who didn't want to speak when she didn't ask or initiate the conversation. 'Feels like eating alone,' she thought bored.

When she returned to the office, Bryana sat in her chair while Dean stood in front of the door staring toward the front.

Knock ... knock ...

"Come in," Bryana exclaimed as she continued to focus on the file.

Monica enters with a tall man about 185 cm tall, a face that looks in his 30s, his firm jaw has a thick beard and brown eyes with a sharp nose, slightly curly hair with a hair cut style. he walked over to Bryana who was busy.

"Mrs. Bryana." The man sat down on the chair, then glanced at Monica as a gesture to leave immediately.

Bryana sighed, stopped her activities, and focused on staring at the guest who was escorted by Monica, now sitting in a chair opposite her table.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Carlos," Bryana said politely because Carlos was one of the people who owned the company she worked with.

"Hem, do you have a schedule slack this week?" asked Carlos, glancing at Bryana.

"I'm busy lately, what's wrong?" Bryana asked back while checking the files on her desk.

"There will be meetings with some of the CEO from the famous companies who are likely to work together to strung then our products in the market. I think if we invite you to the meeting, we can get a contract with another company," explained Carlos politely.

"I'll consider," Bryana said, then asked again, "where does the meeting take place?"

"In Bali," replied Carlos. "I think if you come along, we can as well be refreshing," he continued with a faint smile.

"When exactly?" Bryana asked again, occasionally glancing at Dean who was still standing at the door. 'You statue, I pity your feet,' she thought in surprise.

"The day after tomorrow," said Carlos.

Bryana nodded in understanding, then contacted OB to order coffee, after which she continued to chat with Carlos, discussing company matters. Meanwhile, Dean, still faithfully set his feet on the floor without moving the slightest bit.

At five in the afternoon, Bryana walked out of the office with Dean to the parking lot. she immediately got into the car and sat down with her tired body, especially on her back, from working all day without resting for a second.

"The day after tomorrow we go to Bali, Dean," said Bryana lazily.

"If you are tired, you should not have to visit him," suggested Dean, secretly he could not bear to see Bryana who looked tired. "You can ask Monica as a representative to attend," he continued, focusing on looking ahead, starting to drive his employer's sports car.

Bryana sighs, considering her plan the day after tomorrow is for an important meeting, it is impossible to ask Monica as a representative to attend. "I'll think about it, Dean. I hope you can come along to help too. Honestly, after what happened this afternoon, I couldn't be as calm as before."

"I will come with you wherever you go, ma'am," said Dean in his sexy baritone voice.

During the trip, Bryana overslept. until she got home, Dean felt sorry if he wanted to wake up. So, he carried her bridal style employer out of the car and walked towards the main door, and laid her sexy and smooth body onto the living room sofa.

"What ... why is this pretty lady being carried? Is she sick, Dean?" Louis approached Dean with the closest expression staring at Bryana who was still asleep.

"She just overslept, I didn't have the heart to wake her up, that's why I carried her," said Dean flatly.

"Uh ... you are very lucky to be able to carry her. If she was my wife, I would carry her to the room as well." Louis whispered exasperatedly.

Dean just paused with a strange sigh when he heard Louis's whisper which alluded to the bed. Ah, Dean is a person who has forgotten how delicious and beautiful the bed scene is for a husband and wife because he has already thought that he is almost six years old according to the age of Sofia, his daughter.

"Watch your words, Louis, or she will scold you if she hears what you just said," said Dean then walked to his room.

"Mommy ...!"

Calvin approached Bryana who was still asleep, Lauren couldn't stop him because the boy ran to make her overwhelmed if she joined in the chase.

Bryana woke up and realized she got a hug from her little son. "Cal."

"Mommy, why are you here?" asked Calvin in his cute voice and couldn't even say the letter "R".

Bryana paused and found herself on the living room sofa.

"You were picked up by Dean," said Louis, explaining a confused Bryana.

'He carried me without waking me up? Whether I should say presumptuous or what, he sometimes sculpts like an ice cube, but also very understanding,'

Bryana seated herself and took the arm of Calvin, who looked eager to be spoiled.

"Mommy, let's go to the mal," whimpered Calvin as he put his hands around Bryana's neck.

"It's late, son, Mommy tired."

"Anyway, I want to go to the mall with Mommy!! want to take a ball bath ... want to jump trampoline ... want to play gunfire ... just wants to play at once !! "

Bryana massaged her forehead because she was tired and dizzy, because she had only slept for a while and woke up before she was satisfied, it triggered a feeling of dizziness to attack him.

"Lauren, you took him to the mal first, okay? I'll catch up after a break and take a shower too." Bryana looked at Lauren who was always with Calvin and Louis.

"Yes, ma'am, I'll be ready for a moment."

"Watch him, Louis. Don't let your guard down," Bryana exclaimed.

"Yes, Ma'am1."

Dean returned from his room to see Bryana who was still on the sofa with Calvin.." Dean, you better eat or take a shower or something before we go to the mal, let Calvin and Lauren and Louis go first," said Bryana lazily, she was really tired, but had to obey Calvin's wishes, so as not to feel lack of attention and affection from him.
