At the hospital where Dany is being treated, Fin and Dean receive treatment from the doctor. They were both allowed to go home because the injuries were not too worrying and just needed to recover at home.
Bryana looked pityingly at Dean who was only shirtless with his right arm wrapped in a bandage from a knife scratch while Fin looked weak with a battered face and kept holding his stomach. they were in the car with Louis driving the car home.
"It must be so hurt," Bryana muttered, glancing at Dean who was sitting beside her. The woman also held Aidyn in her lap, who didn't even have time to take a bath even though it was already seven o'clock at night.
"It does not matter. this is just a knife scratch, not a wound that hits my heart and will endanger my life," said Dean with a warm smile even though his stomach that had not healed still made him nauseous. he rested his head on Bryana's right shoulder until the one she was leaning against gently rubbed his jaw.
Dean looked at Aidyn, who looked a little wrinkled because she hadn't had enough rest, hadn't showered. "The most important thing is he's fine. maybe if I don't force myself to fight them, you and our son will become their targets," he said.
"But you're not okay. You're sick, but you have to hurt even more," Bryana said.
"I'm not in too much pain. I've even been injured worse than this when I was a bodyguard when I was a bachelor," Dean said a little, trying to calm Bryana who was too worried about him.
"How bad is it?" Bryan asked.
"Um...I have a neck injury, I couldn't get up for a few months," Dean replied, whether it was fake or real. "I'm thankful my wound isn't that bad. I can still come back healthy and of course with you."
Bryana let out a shaky breath, leaning her head against the seat. She stared sadly at the roadside atmosphere through the car window. "Hopefully something like this doesn't happen again."
"Hopefully so."
Dean turned to look at Louis who was focused on driving beside Fin who had been silent for a long time.
"Louis, did Franky and the others catch those damn thugs?" he asked.
"No, Dean. They ran into the crowded market so Franky couldn't find them," Louis replied.
"Damn it!" growled Dean. "Actually who ordered them to feel like I have no enemies other than Carlos right now!"
"Could it be that Alex sent them?" Bryana guessed almost the same as Dany.
"Honey, Alex has changed. He couldn't have done all this." Dean glanced at Bryana who still had feelings for Alex.
"He could have done that because he's run out of riches here. Killing me would make it easier for him to get Calvin. And maybe he'd hire market thugs because he couldn't afford Bodyguard. After all, he was broke. I don't even know what his job is now," said Bryana with a past thought of how Alex had tricked her with fake love.
"That makes sense but... I don't know. I'm not sure," replied Dean nervously lifting his head off Bryana's shoulder. "Louis, search for those thugs around the area. I'm sure they're just local market thugs," he shouted.
"Yes, Dean," said Louis.
Fin, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to be busy playing with his smartphone. he seemed to be typing something, whether a message or something, making Louis pay a little attention while driving.
"Are you telling your girlfriend that you're hurting?" asked Louis, smiling slightly.
"No. I'm just chatting with my friend," said Fin, smiling shyly.
"Bodyguard dating is also okay. Because everyone has the right to have a life partner. We look the same age, it's time for you to get married," said Louis casually.
"I haven't thought about that yet," Fin said then pocketed his phone in his basic pants pocket. he fell silent again when Louis was also silent. Sometimes the man looked into the glass above him, seeing the reflections of Dean and Bryana. 'I'm in danger. If those thugs don't get out of town soon, they'll be caught by Dean's bodyguard team, and they'll say that I'm the mastermind behind this attack,' he thought angrily.
'I just wanted Bryana, and Dean had to die. The wound on his arm isn't much, but one day I'll make him die slowly!' he thought with all the evil plans that were taking over his head.

Alex was on his way back home. he had just come home from work because Carlos had quite a lot of work to do. The man was so hard at work, while his boss was alone with his wife. I don't know how long he doesn't know about their affair, this is almost exactly what he did to Bryana a few years ago.
Drettt... Drettt...
His smartphone, which was on the dashboard, rang. Alex immediately grabbed it and saw an incoming call from Calvin. he smiled and answered the call from his son.
"Hello, Cal. Isn't usually you call?" Alex asked as he pulled the car over.
"Because I already have dad's contact number," Calvin answered over the phone.
Alex put a smile on his lips. "Oh yes. but don't call too often, and don't play games too often. You have to study hard so that Mommy won't be mad at you."
"Since I came home from school, mom and daddy Dean left and haven't come back yet. I'm worried about them," said Calvin, sounding sad.
"Maybe they have an interest, son. Maybe they'll be home soon," said Alex with a mind that was also worried about Bryana.
"But this afternoon uncle Louis left in a hurry with the other Bodyguards. I'm afraid that something might happen to mom and dad, and even Aidyn is with them."
Alex paused for a moment then glanced at his watch which showed the time was 07:15 pm. "Okay, daddy will be there. Don't be sad."
"Yes, daddy."
The phone line was cut off. Alex put his phone back on the dashboard, then made his way to Bryana's house. wait, if he goes there, will meet Fin who he already knows is the son of Gustave.

At home, Calvin is on the front porch alone while Sofia is studying with her grandmother. She was reluctant to study or do anything other than play while waiting for her father and mother who had not yet returned. the memory of being kidnapped and about to die in a bomb explosion inside an old building with Monica traumatized him.
"Cal, come on in," shouted Franky, who had just returned from chasing the thugs earlier.
Calvin shook his head. "I'll keep waiting mommy!"
"Mommy is on her way. will be home soon. we'll just wait inside," Franky coaxed as he crouched down in front of Calvin who was sitting on the terrace floor.
"What exactly happened. Has anyone done anything bad again?" asked Calvin irritably.
"Yeah but they're gone," Franky replied casually. "You don't have to worry. mom, dad, and Aidyn are fine. we better wait for them inside. There are lots of mosquitoes here."
