Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

The man backed away and was pressed against the closed elevator doors. He wiped his lips which were bloody from Dean\'s punch.

"YOU ARE KILLER!!" shouted Dean furiously as he grabbed the man by the collar and pushed him to the other side so that he fell into the middle of a deserted hospital corridor.

"HEY I CAN EXPLAIN EVERYTHING!" cried the man in horror at Dean\'s anger.

with sharp eyes filled with anger, Dean looked at the man and pulled him back to stand up and then gave him hits by hit so strong it was filled with anger and revenge.

BUGHHH... BUGHH... BUGHHH!

the man fell back on the floor and was in pain in his stomach, even his face was battered and his nose was bleeding

Frustrated, Dean came back to the man and grabbed him by the collar, forcing him to stand up and stare at him hatefully.

"WHAT WOULD YOU EXPLAIN, HUH? HOW COULD YOU SHOOT MY WIFE WHO WAS PREGNANT?" Dean asked, screaming without caring that a few hospital visitors had started arriving.

BUGHHH... BUGHH!!

He again showered the man with hits blindly.

"I AM NOT INNOCENT, I HAD TO DO IT!" Finally, the man spoke again in self-defense.

"How do you say you\'re innocent when you shoot her so many times?" Dean narrowed his eyes at the man who fell back down. the memory of Clarissa dying always flashed through his mind until his eyes turned red. "What\'s wrong with my wife? Tell me your reason! Tell me why you killed her!"

"BECAUSE I WAS TOLD BY Mr. STEVAN!" cried the man furiously, then staggered to his feet. "If you want to avenge your wife\'s death, you\'d better kill Stevan, because I\'m just his errand man!"

Dean shook his head in disbelief and approached the man. "Don\'t lie, or I\'ll break your neck right now!"

"I\'M NOT LIE!" cried the man pushing Dean close to his body. "He dumped me after that incident to clear his name, to hide his crimes!"

"Mr. Stevan can\'t be like that!" Dean exclaimed with confidence because, for him, Stevan was a good person like Bryana or Raymond. Even his father-in-law accepted him as a son-in-law regardless of who he was. "There\'s no way Mr. Stevan told you to. You must be making this up!"

Bryana who heard the riots in the corridor walked out of the treatment room with Monica. She frowned when saw Dean arguing with a man and being mobbed by several visitors and hospital staff.

"Honey, what\'s up?" Bryana asked, holding Dean\'s fist into a fist and staring at the man who was his opponent.

"He, he killed Clarissa," Dean said, pointing at the man and then punching him in the face mercilessly.

Monica asks some hospital visitors to break up the fight between Dean and the stranger. But Dean is so uncontrollable that Bryana becomes an obstacle.

"Honey, I know him. He can\'t kill!" cried Bryana, who didn\'t know anything.

"But he ... he\'s the one who shot Clarissa until death, even Clarissa\'s mother also died because of him!" Dean asserted and looked hatefully at Bryana who seemed to be defending the jerk man. "Who is he? How come you know him too?"

Bryana turned to look at the foreign man who was battered and cornered against the wall. "He is my father\'s confidant. As far as I know, he never killed anyone!"

"But your father asked me to kill a pregnant woman before firing and throwing me away!" exclaimed the man with a sharp gaze as if holding back his anger at Bryana.

Dean shook his head and felt dizzy at what he saw. "So he\'s your father\'s confidant?"

"But I\'m sure that dad didn\'t do what he said!" Bryana reassured Dean. she took his husband\'s hands and looked at him pleadingly. "Believe me, dad wasn\'t the mastermind behind Clarissa\'s death!"

"Don\'t lie, Bryana! Your father is a cruel man! He will use any means to take revenge on Gustave! you don\'t know anything because at that time you were just a girl who cared about your private life only!" The man confirmed, then smiled sarcastically at Dean. "And you are the stupidest man to be the husband of a woman whose father killed your first wife.!"

"But you shot her!" Monica exclaimed with anger at the stranger.

"But it was Stevan who paid me a heavy price to do that!"

"No, I\'m sure dad isn\'t like that!" Bryana reiterated that she even pushed the stranger. She didn\'t even know that his father was Gustave\'s enemy. "My father gave everything for you, helped your family, how could you even slander him?"

"I\'m telling the truth!" The man waved Bryan\'s hand.

Bryana almost fell and was immediately helped by Dean. dean looked at Bryana who he had married, it turned out to be the daughter of the mastermind behind the murder of his first wife.

"Honey, please believe me..." Bryana cried pleadingly. She saw Dean so hurt and in confusion.

dean kept silent with the image of Clarissa, the image of Sofia\'s suffering since she was a baby without a mother, the image of when she brought Bryana to his historic home with Clarissa.

dean begins to feel guilty and sorry for his late wife because he married Bryana who is the daughter of Stevan, his wife\'s killer.

"I don\'t know who to trust but I feel, your father has made a fool of me, accepting me as a son-in-law, even though he was the one who ordered people to kill Clarissa… I\'m sick of all this!" Dean said with tears in his eyes. He felt sorry and fooled.

"Honey, dad couldn\'t have told him to!" Bryana reaffirmed by holding Dean\'s hand. Confused by the facts she had just learned, she was very afraid that her husband would believe the stranger\'s words and would leave her.

"But he\'s your father\'s confidant!" Dean let go of Bryan\'s hand. He looked disappointed and walked away towards the emergency stairs at a brisk pace, not caring that his wife was chasing him.

Monica chased Bryana who was walking in a hurry to catch up with Dean who was running further and further into another corridor.

"Dean! Don\'t go, at least wait for Raymond to come to explain!" Bryana cried as she followed Dean. she seemed to forget that she was pregnant. Anger and fear filled her heart. \'Raymond must know about this matter. He could explain it to Dean. I also believe that father is innocent!\'

"Bryana, don\'t run, it could harm your womb!" Monica was finally able to grab Bryana\'s hand. "We\'d better stop him. We\'ll take the elevator."

Monica pointed at the elevator that had opened. Briana nodded and walked with him to the elevator.

Dean rushed down the stairs not caring he would fall. His mind was completely muddled with disappointment and shock at what he just found out. \'I\'m sorry, Clarissa. I married a woman who turned out to be the daughter of the one who wanted your death!\' he thought in the shadows as Clarissa died.

until he reached the ground floor, Dean ran down the hospital corridor. "I shouldn\'t be here, guarding the dying man who took away my happiness with Clarissa! I hate him. Or maybe he\'s hiding all this because he doesn\'t want me to leave Bryana. He sneaky old man!" Dean kept on a monologue with himself until he arrived at the parking lot.

Dean got into the car Raymond lent him, then drove it to Stevan\'s house. He was driving at high speed, with hatred and guilt towards Clarissa. the man felt he had been negligent in carrying out his late wife\'s message before she died.

"How is that possible? How can I make the daughter of your murderer a surrogate mother for our child! I am stupid, stupid!" Dean kept cursing himself in anger. he doesn\'t even remember that he married Bryana also because of love.

Hem, hopefully, the misunderstanding in Dean will end soon, because Bryana will be Gustave\'s target victim, of course, she needs Dean\'s care as a husband who always promises to take care of her.
