Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

At 10:30 a.m. Bryana is escorted by Monica and Dany to the hospital where they will perform equalization of pregnancies each month on Dr. Clara, who has been Bryana's regular doctor since the beginning of her pregnancy.

Bryana looked a bit fresh in her calf-length blue dress, combined with a black blazer and carrying a branded bag that matched the color of her dress. She also pinned her hair back and put on her favorite perfume, which smelled of Japanese Cherry blossom. She walked with Monica with Dany who continued to guard her against behind.

"By the way, I also need to check myself," Monica muttered as she followed Bryana's steps.

"You mean?" Bryana glanced at Monica as she continued walking.

"I've been on my period late since you came to London," Monica explained casually.

Bryana, who had been gloomy for a long time, had a smile on her lips. Ah, that makes her look cute and hopefully, that smile will continue to shine even if Dean will return. "I feel like I'm going to be an aunty," she said.

"That's not certain, Bryana," Monica confirmed.

"Even so, I hope that because you are late for your period is because you have Raymond junior in your stomach," said Bryana with an amused smile.

"Raymond junior? I can't imagine how spoiled it will be." Monica smiled faintly in her imagination of having a baby who would make her time with her husband feel more complete, especially since her husband was eagerly awaiting the good news.

Because they were chatting while walking, they didn't feel they had arrived at the special room for the obstetrician, which was in a majestic hospital with brownish-white nuances with a futuristic interior.

"Good morning, Dr. Clara," Bryana greeted with a warm smile, followed by Monica while Dany waited outside.

"Good morning. Too bad you're not with your husband," Dr. Clara murmured. She glanced at Bryana, who was with Monica, now sitting on the chair opposite the table in front of her.

"Uh, her husband is out of the country for business. I took her because I also wanted to have myself checked," Monica explained before Bryana became even sadder when mentioning Dean.

"Okay, I'll check Mrs. Bryana first," said Dr. Clara as she got up from the chair. She immediately ruled Bryana to lie down on the metallic hospital bed, then do an examination.

Bryana silently stared at the ceiling of the examination room while feeling her arm being put on a blood pressure device, then the doctor put a blanket to cover her lower body. while the surface of her abdomen was exposed and was immediately examined after the blood pressure was known.

"The body size is normal for the age, but the heart rate is a little weak. Have you had any complaints or problems recently?" asked Dr. Clara?

"I'm just in an uncomfortable situation," Bryana replied angrily.

Dr. Clara sighed, then cleaned up the examination equipment while saying, "Whatever the problems in everyday life that you face, don't think too much that it makes you lazy to eat, so many thoughts that cause your baby's condition is also in trouble. It will feel what you feel, so you should try to stay calm even if the situation makes you depressed."

"Yeah, I'll try," Bryana said sadly, looking down at her distended belly. 'I'm sorry, honey. Mommy just misses your dad too much...,' she thought trying not to cry even though her eyes were already hot.

"Would you like an ultrasound?" asked Dr. Clara, while Monica was still sitting in the chair.

"Just do it. Who knows the gender will show," Bryana exclaimed.

"Okay, wait a minute," Dr. Clara then prepares equipment for a 3D ultrasound to determine the development of Bryana's baby, even to find out the gender which has not been known for a long time.

Dr. Clara applied the gel to Bryana's belly, then placed the connected object on the monitor. She moved the object while glancing at the monitor which displayed a portrait of the baby in Bryana's tummy.

"Oh, God. So cute," Monica muttered as she approached Bryana and smiled amusedly at the monitor. "Her nose is as great as yours and the lips are more like Dean's."

Bryana just smiled and glanced at the monitor, which displayed a portrait of her baby because it was a 3D ultrasound. she remembered, Dean always smiled enthusiastically when the baby was seen through the monitor, but this time the husband didn't see it, making her feel the painful swell in her heart again.

"Well, now we know the gender," murmured Dr. Clara with a relieved smile.

"What's the gender?" Bryana asked.

"Look, there's a bird in there, that means it's a baby boy," said Dr. Clara jokingly.

"Oh, God. Finally, there will be a new nephew. he'll be a lot like his dad," Monica muttered with a happy look on her face, while Bryana breathed a sigh of relief and hoped Dean would come back soon because she wanted to tell him the happy news.

Londo...

Early in the morning, Raymond was up and ready to go to the airport with his father who was declared healthy and allowed to travel long distances on the condition that he had to do a checkup after arriving at his destination.

Raymond already looked neat in black jeans combined with a white t-shirt and a colored leather jacket that matched his pants, spraying men's perfume and combing his hair with a haircut style. he immediately came out of the room to the dining room, which was equipped with modern silver furniture that matched the feel of the house which was dominated by metallic colors.

"Have you contacted your wife that we are leaving for Indonesia this morning?" Stevan asked while waiting for Emma who was getting him breakfast.

"Not yet," said Raymond, then reached into his trouser pocket to take out his cell phone. "I'll call her now."

Raymond tried to contact Monica via WhatsApp several times and finally connected.

"Hello, honey."

"Hello, are you awake?" Monica immediately asked from the phone.

"Of course, because I have to go to the airport, then fly to Indonesia and will meet you soon," said Raymond with a warm smile. Ah, he can't wait to meet his wife whom he misses so much.

"Really? Then be careful on the highway and stay alert. I'm waiting for you."

"By the way, what are you doing?" Raymond asked instead wanting to have a chat with Monica.

"I'm taking Bryana for her pregnancy check-up."

"So what? Is there something wrong with her pregnancy?" Raymond asked with a frown, while Stevan who was eating immediately turned his attention to Raymond.

"No, she just did a routine checkup. And just so you know, the gender of the baby is known."

"Really?"

"Yeah, the baby is a boy and I have a feeling he'll look like Dean. It's so cute, I just saw it from the monitor, so can't wait for his birth."

Raymond smiled and glanced at his father who was curious and said, "your grandchild is a baby boy. Just found out earlier."

Stevan smiled with relief and continued his breakfast activities while imagining that he would meet Dean, and bring him back together with Bryana and raise a complete family. That was all he thought, because he had never wanted Clarissa dead nor had he deliberately lied to Dean intending to make a fool of him.. 'I'll explain everything, even the origin of the problem between Gustave and me, so Dean doesn't keep thinking badly of me and my extended family,' he thought.
