Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard Chapter 171 – Mood Breaker At The Party

Raymond brought his body closer to Monica, then his right hand grabbed her waist while looking down into her eyes.

“Raymond, I… I’m embarrassed to dance in front of this many people,” Monica stuttered as she looked up at Raymond. For some reason, she felt very nervous, even though she was usually the center of people’s attention during meetings or presentations about the company.

“What are you ashamed of, Hem? You are so beautiful without any flaws. They stare at you, look at us, because we are a bride. so throw away the embarrassment, let’s just say we’re alone here.” Raymond spoke very quietly, with a look so reassuring.

“But .. but I’ve never danced before,” said Monica still nervous.

“You just have to follow my lead,” Raymond shouted, holding Monica’s hand so that it rested on his shoulder. “And look at me in the eye, imagine it’s just you and me here.”

Monica nodded slowly and swallowed her saliva. her breath was tight and his heart was already beating wildly because of Raymond’s intense gaze, and the nervousness of being the center of attention of the guests and even her relatives present.

Raymond gave the microphone to the waiter, then wrapped his arms around Monica’s waist, while Monica wrapped her arms around Raymond’s neck. Slowly the sound of music echoed through the building, and the bride and groom began to dance.

“Follow my lead,” Raymond exclaimed, smiling at Monica. She performed a slow dance move to the accompaniment of Lana Del Rey’s song ft. The weekend was entitled “Lust for Life” which added to the romantic impression of the evening’s atmosphere.

Monica smiled shyly and bent her face. “I never thought this was real.”

“It’s real, I’m yours.” Raymond touched Monica’s chin and lifted his face, then kissed her lips briefly. “Just act like you’re happy you won the lottery.”

“You’re not a lottery for me, but….”

“But what?”

“You are like a mysterious gift coming from God which makes me so happy when I know that the contents of the parcel are you, as … My soulmate,” Monica explained then buried her face into Raymond’s chest.

Raymond smiled crookedly with a happy hue on his face. “My wife is good at stringing love words. Who taught you, Hem? Jill, or…”

“I sincerely said it!” Monica confirmed as she looked back up at Raymond.

“Haha yes I believe, now let’s continue this dance and show that we are the happiest couple beside Dean and Bryana,” Raymond exclaimed while glancing at Dean and Bryana who were dancing nearby with other couples.

“Oh, wow…It was just the two of us earlier, and now everyone is dancing.” Monica glanced at the increasingly lively party atmosphere.

“Because you just focused on me.” Raymond pushed Monica away from his body, then pulled her again until Monica spun around and stopped in his arms with her back to him. The man kissed the nape of the neck of his bride and continued to do other dance moves.

Bryana smiled amusedly when her belly touched Dean’s stomach even though they were wearing their clothes. “This is the result of dancing with a pregnant woman.”

“I don’t care, the important thing is that we are like any other couple.” Dean pressed his forehead to Bryan’s. “I remember when we danced at Soraya and Johnny’s wedding”

“Oh yes, you were still shy back then.”

“Because you are my mistress. Mrs. Bryana. And I like that name called,” Dean explained, looking at Bryana.

Bryana smiled and remembered the times she still harbored her love for Dean. “And I also really like it when you are by my side. And just so you know… I almost got frustrated when I saw you with Kareen at the mall. I was drunk that night.”

Dean chuckled. “Is that true? did you misunderstand just because of that? Next time don’t get drunk, it’s not good for your health.” Dean continued to advise.

Bryana sighed because she felt tightness in her chest because of the tight dress on her body. “I’m just so just to unwind because it’s so hard to get rid of the shadows that keep me from sleeping.”

Dean looked at Bryana who looked uncomfortable. “Are you tired?”

“Not bad.”

“We should sit with Calvin and Sofia,” said Dean, glancing at his two children who were sitting on chairs eating the available cake.

Bryana nodded in agreement until Dean led her to where Calvin and Sofia were sitting with Lily who was talking to Monica’s mother.

Until a few minutes passed, the dance ended and the guests sat back down to just chat with other guests. some said goodbye to go home because it was nine o’clock at night.

While having a guest, there is a guest who makes Monica feel uncomfortable, because the guest is a woman from Raymond’s past.

“Hey, Raymond. it turns out that you have a match with your sister’s secretary,” said Elsa who smiled sweetly as if she had no guilt for betraying Raymond.

“Yeah, she’s just a secretary, but she’s an honorable lady,” Raymond replied with a sly smile.

Elsa nodded and held out her hand to Monica. “Congratulations, you will be the mistress of Raymond who has everything.”

Monica accepted the outstretched hand saying, “have everything or not, I don’t care. Because I married him not because of material things.”

“Hey, why did you come? Just spoil the mood!” Suddenly Bryana came and immediately acted curtly at Elsa.

“Bryana, I came because your brother invited me. So don’t blame me,” Elsa exclaimed with her cynical smile.

“But I didn’t invite you,” Raymon replied with a frown. “Who would invite a traitor like you!”

Elsa was annoyed and immediately took something from her small black branded bag that matched the dress she was wearing.

“You invited me..here’s the proof!” Elsa handed Raymond an invitation.

Raymond frowned as he grabbed the invitation. Monica and Bryana also paid attention to the invitation, the same as the other invitations given to the guests who came tonight.

“But I didn’t invite her!” Raymond confirmed.

“And I didn’t invite her either!” cried Monica.

“I don’t care if you’re invited or not, now go because there are no traitorous guests here!” Bryana confirmed. she couldn’t forget how Elsa played with Alex behind her back, even enjoying the treasure that Alex had snatched from her.

“Looks like you guys just want to spoil your party by inviting me. Well, I’ll do that!” Elsa exclaimed then walked towards the place to prepare the dishes, about to make a mess by opening the tablecloth until the drink spilled on it and the glass was shattered on the floor.

“Elsa, STOP!” exclaimed Dean who immediately came from nowhere, he immediately held Elsa’s hand who was about to destroy other dishes around her.

Raymond walked over to Elsa, then dragged her out of the ballroom furiously, while Monica and Bryana and even the other guests were furious at Elsa’s riotous attitude that ruined the atmosphere of the grand wedding party.

“TAKE HER AWAY AND DON’T LET HER COME BACK!” Raymond shouted angrily as he handed Elsa over to the bodyguards guarding the ballroom entrance. ‘Who exactly sent her the invitation? Monica must be disappointed in me, even embarrassed..’ He thought.
