Chapter 72 - On The Way To Australia

When it was five o'clock in the afternoon, Bryana and Dean were ready to go to the airport escorted by a driver. They looked ready wearing casual clothes. Bryana wore long silver cotton cloth pants combined with a brownish white shirt top and let her hair fall beautifully. Dean wore black jeans combined with a white t-shirt and black leather jacket and wore a white hat.

at this time, they were still on the porch of the house and were about to enter the car. Calvin and Sofia were still standing beside them with displeased looks. Yeah, even though they were promised a younger sibling, the two boys were still sad because they would be separated from their parents for one week.

"Dad, don't forget to buy a robot that can walk on its own with a switch," Calvin shouted, looking up at Dean.

Dean smiled and squatted at Calvin. "Surely daddy will buy it."

"Sofia, are you didn't ask to buy something?" Bryana asked, staring at Sofia, who was just silent with sad eyes.

"I didn't ask for anything," Sofia replied, shaking her head.

Bryana crouched down at Sofia with a frown. "Why? Don't you want Mom to buy a doll that can walk on its own, like Calvin's robot? "

Sofia still shook her head, then cupped Bryana's cheeks with her tiny hands. "I just want mom to come back, unlike my last mommy who never came back," he said later.

Dean let out a huffed sigh and glanced at Sofia with pity. "Mommy will come back with daddy too. Don't worry. Mommy Clarissa never comes back because she was calm with God."

"Yes, sweetheart. Don't think that mommy Clarissa left you. On God's side, mommy Clarissa must be very happy to see you grow up to be a beautiful and kind girl," Bryana exclaimed with a reassuring smile. She felt sorry for Sofia, who probably really missed Clarissa, who since she was a baby had been taken by God.

"Mommy has to come back. Daddy has to protect Mommy Bryana!" Sofia exclaimed in her cute voice. She turned to look at her father, whom she knows has always worked as a bodyguard, as someone's guard to keep safe.

Dean smiled wryly at Sofia. "Daddy promised, daddy will always protect Mommy Bryana. We'll be back on time with plenty of gifts for you and Calvin."

"Then I want a baby girl." Finally, Sofia made a request.

Suddenly Dean and Bryana smiled with amusement. in fact, the driver along with Lauren and Louis who were on the terrace were holding back laughter at Sofia's innocence.

"Oh, God. Why are they so innocent?" muttered Louis, finally chuckling.

"Don't laugh at them!" exclaimed Lauren, elbowing Louis in the stomach.

Louis closed his mouth so he didn't look laughing.

"You guys just pray, may God soon give a baby for you through your mother's belly, okay?" exclaimed Dean, raising his eyebrows at Calvin and Sofia.

Calvin and Sofia nodded. Dean and Bryana immediately got up and walked into the car that would take them to the airport with the driver.

Elsewhere, Kareen is tidying up some files, then stacking them on her desk. She would be home soon and at that moment, Raymond came over to her.

"Kareen," Raymond said with a friendly smile.

Kareen just responded with a smile and resumed tidying activities.

"Monica is on rest today. That means you go home alone, right?" asked Raymond.

"Yeah, I'll just take a taxi," Kareen replied.

"I'll take you," Raymond exclaimed swiftly.

"No, I can go home alone. I don't want to bother you because we're not in the same direction," Kareen said, then carried her medium-sized briefcase, dark blue with black butterflies on it, and got out of her chair to get out of the room.

Raymond immediately took Kareen's hand. "Kareen. I want to have an important talk with you," he exclaimed later.

"I have to hurry back to the apartment. Monica is sick, I have to make sure she's okay," Kareen said angrily.

Raymond sighed staring at Kareen who cared about Monica. that means Kareen is a kind and considerate person too. This made him even more interested in his sister's secretary who did look beautiful in a simple style.

"All right, let me escort you to get to the apartment faster. After you've confirmed Monica's okay, I hope we can chat," exclaimed Raymond pleadingly.

Kareen did not move for a moment while staring at Raymond who had been trying to approach her since yesterday. 'Maybe he likes me?' She thought.

"Kareen. Can I escort you?" asked Raymond again.

Kareen, who was daydreaming, came back to her senses and looked at Raymond. "Okay," she replied.

Raymond smiled with pleasure and immediately walked out of the room and down the corridor to the elevator. Kareen followed him with slow steps while watching Raymond who walked in front of him.

'What if he likes me? He is handsome, but Dean is more handsome. I only want Dean, not him!' Kareen said to herself. it turns out she still wants her best friend who is married to her boss.

Upon arriving at the airport, Dean and Bryana walked towards the airfield where several large planes were neatly parked, and some began to take off.

"That's daddy," Bryana exclaimed with a smile as she watched her father waiting beside the stairs of the private jet that would take her to Australia.

"Private jet?" Dean did not expect his father-in-law to provide private jet facilities to launch his honeymoon trip with Bryana.

"It's mine, yours too. And bought it as our wedding gift," Bryana explained with a smile.

Dean's mouth opened slightly and looked incredulous. It turned out that Stevan was so rich that he gave him a private jet as a wedding gift. he did not think that her father-in-law was very kind, did not look down on him, even provided a lot of facilities for him.

"Why?" Bryana asked because Dean was silent until he stopped walking.

"It's okay," Dean replied then walked back. "I just feel ...this is too much and I ... I am the luckiest poor man in this world."

"You are not a poor man. You are Dean Jackson who has everything with Bryana Jackson who has always loved Dean!" Bryana emphasized while looking up at Dean who was taller than her.

Dean smiled amusedly and bit his lower lip. "Bryana Jackson? Sounds real."

"Because I am your wife, I will use your last name," explained Bryana smiling so sweetly.

"But I prefer to call you 'Jill' or 'honey' because it's my favorite nickname." Dean kept walking to keep up with Bryana's steps until he was almost near the plane.

"It's up to you to call me now for sure I'm Bryana Jackson."

Stevan smiled at Dean and Bryana who looked very harmonious and happy."Have fun, let daddy take care of your children," he exclaimed.

"Thank you, dad. You are very kind and ...and I am very lucky to have a father-in-law like you," said Dean with an awkward smile.

"This is all I did because you were able to make Bryana happy and get married again," Stevan replied with a smile glancing at Bryana.

"I sincerely love Bryana. I will always take care of her and make her happy. Thank you for trusting Bryana to me."Dean still speeches.

Stevan nodded and invited Bryana and Dean to immediately enter the white private jet with the wings, tail, and windows interspersed with blue. Dean and Bryana immediately entered with the steward who brought their big suitcases.

Arriving on the plane, Dean glanced around the passenger cabin, which was given cream-colored seats complete with a table. There is a door that leads to a private room, then a pilot room and crew that provide complete facilities and food or drink if passengers are hungry.

Bryana invites Dean to the room because she wants to rest during the trip that they will take for a few hours.

"I want to sleep because my strength has not fully recovered," Bryana exclaimed as she pulled Dean to the private room in the private den can only follow Bryana, because he also feels he must rest before arriving in Australia and will do many activities to make Bryana happy.
