Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard Chapter 368 – Night

At midnight, Vania had just been able to fall asleep after she finished calming her son who was fussy because he was having a fever. She was lying on a bed with white sheets with her son, who is now more than a year old, named Devano Fransiskus.

Knock… knock… .knock…

There was a knock on the door. Vania was forced to get up and get out of bed walking towards the main door of her room which was brownish-black and then opened it. She saw Carlos coming over with a sour face.

“Carlos.”

Vania looked surprised to see Carlos who looked annoyed entering her room. “Carlos. You shouldn’t be here. According to the agreement, you can only come here during the day because if you come here at night, Elsa will come here and lash out at me,” she said.

Carlos sighed, turning to look at Vania who didn’t want his presence. This made him who was annoyed even more annoyed and wanted to throw a tantrum until finally he took the table lamp beside the bed and threw it in any direction.

Prackkk…

Suddenly the lamp broke and scattered on the floor and a surprised Vania immediately approached her son who also immediately cried because he was woken up by the sound of the broken lamp.

“Mommy!” The boy sat on the bed and looked at his father.

“Carlos, what are you doing?” asked Vania while hugging Vano.

“Don’t you like me coming here?” asked Carlos with a very cold look.

“I just don’t want Elsa to be angry and come here to disturb me and our son’s peace,” replied Vania.

“I’m the lead of our family, I have the right to choose to sleep here or with Elsa!” Carlos said annoyed. “And it turns out that you rejected me out of fear of Elsa. Would you respect her more than me as your husband, who fulfills your needs?”

“It’s not like that, Carlos . . I just don’t want to…” Vania’s words were cut off when Carlos interrupted.

“Fuck you! You can’t please your husband the same way!” Carlos shouted furiously kicking the shards of lamps scattered on the floor and then walking out of the room ignoring his sick son.

Vania sighed, trying to be patient with Carlos’s stubborn attitude and very difficult to calm when angry. She turned to look at her son who was frightened by his father’s anger.

“Now you sleep again. Don’t mind about daddy….maybe he is having a lot of problems,” said Vania embracing Vano and stroking his thick, slightly curly hair.

‘What exactly happened? Why is he suddenly angry just because of my words which I think is natural. Could Elsa throw a tantrum?’ Vania wondered in her heart while hugging and rubbing Vano’s forehead which was still hot with fever.

Feeling rejected by Vania, Carlos switched to driving his car to a nightclub where he usually got rid of his dizziness and tiredness. .uh, maybe he’s going to find a paid girl to keep him satisfied and entertained?

“Hello, Max. Where are you?” Carlos asked as he called his assistant?

“I’m at home, sir,” Max answered over the phone.

“Meet me at the usual club,” said Carlos.

“Yes sir.”

Carlos disconnected the phone then his phone rang again because there was an incoming call from Elsa. Instead of answering he turned off his phone and put it on the dashboard.

“I’m tired, I’m sick of her attitude that wants to always come first but doesn’t respect me as a husband!” Carlos was annoyed again remembering Elsa who always demanded him to leave Vania, while Vania was too obedient to Elsa to reject him when he came at night.

“You are a damn wife!” Carlos smacked his hand on the steering wheel to vent his already ignited emotions.

At Bryana’s house…

Coming home from the hospital, Raymond did not immediately rest…Instead, he was alone in the study, staring at photos of Bryana’s wedding to Dean. The photo shows how his father smiled warmly as he led Bryana to the altar.

“Dad…I hope dad isn’t mad at me because I’ve forgiven the person who hurt you,” Raymond said as he rubbed the photo. “I’m doing all of this for good, for the sake of a happy life between my family and Bryana’s family, and Alex…I hope that after this there will be no hostility… No more victims, no more fear that always haunts us.”

“Of course dad is not angry but he will be proud of you,” said someone from the doorway. It was Monica who walked up to Raymond. .The woman looked naturally beautiful wearing a white dress with open sleeves and letting her hair flow beautifully.

“Honey,” said Raymond with a smile looking at Monica.

“Why haven’t you slept yet? I’ve been waiting for you in the room?” Monica hugged Raymond from behind and stared at the photo he was holding.

“I just wanted to be alone,” said Raymond again looking at the photo.

“You miss daddy?” she asked.

“Always,” said Raymond. “I just decided to forgive Alex. Was that wrong?” he asked.

“Of course not,” Monica replied. “Forgiveness will make you relieved and have no burden. What you forgive will also feel relieved and be kinder to us. It makes our family so peaceful.”

Raymond took a deep breath then exhaled slowly. “There’s no reason not to forgive him. He once saved Bryana and Dean, then saved you and Madeline from Gio’s brutality,” he said.

“I’m sure he’s sincere about it because he’s gotten better..moreover, now his wife is also a kind and simple person, unlike the greedy Elsa. He’s part of our family because he’s Calvin’s father,” Monica said, sitting on Raymond’s lap.

Monica felt Raymond’s downy jaw, then kissed his forehead. “Now, how are you feeling?”

“I’m very relieved. Moreover, Kareen has also been returned to her rightful place. I hope she won’t be able to do any harm to us or Bryana and Dean,” Raymond replied with a smile.

Monica sighed, showing sadness on her face. “I still always hope that she recovers from her obsession disease, and returns to living a normal life. I want her to be like me, live happily with a man who truly loves her,” she said nervously.

“Hopefully she can recover, but for her brother ….I can’t tolerate it,” said Raymond.

“Gio is like that because he has a bad relationship and wants to make Kareen happy,” said Monica, who also didn’t like seeing Gio imprisoned even though he almost killed him.

“Yeah… Hopefully, after being imprisoned, he will change for the better..or if necessary he is isolated in a dark room like Fin isolated Alex until he gave up and regretted all his mistakes.” Raymond remembered about Alex who had told his experience of being held captive by Fin for three months.

“That’s too cruel,” Monica said with pursed lips. .mshe was annoyed with Raymond, but she understood why her husband couldn’t tolerate Gio who almost killed her and killed Madeline too. Of course, her husband is very disapproving….
