Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

Chapter 269 - Chaos In The Morning

One week passed...

Early in the morning Bryana and Dean were up to take care of their kids. They couldn't rely on Lauren who only had two hands to take care of them.

Dean invites Aidyn to just take a walk in the park around the house using a stroller so that his son lies down and relaxes looking at the blue sky, while Bryana and Lauren take care of Calvin and Sofia who will enter elementary school starting today.

"You have to be good at choosing friends. Don't get into fights and don't cry even though Aunt Lauren or Uncle Louis is no longer with you in front of the class," Bryana exclaimed as she put a red tie on Calvin, who already looked neat wearing a red and white school uniform. red on the pants, and white on the shirt.

"Will Sofia be in the same class as me?" Calvin asked, glancing at Sofia, who was having her hair braided by Lauren.

"About that, Mommy doesn't know. The teacher will arrange your classes," answered Bryana, turning to take the comb she had prepared on the edge of the bed, then combing Calvin's hair with a haircut style.

Calvin exhaled harshly, pursed his lips, and even looked grouchy. "I want to be in the same class with Sofia, and mommy has to ask the teacher to make me a class with Sofia!" he exclaimed.

"It can't be like that, son. It's school rules to determine the class of each student," Bryana said patiently.

"Mom, I have a lot of money. You just pay the teacher to make me in the same class with Sofia!" Calvin shouted.

Bryana sighed, looking at her son who could never be separated from his older sister who was almost the same age.

"You can't cheat, Cal. if we're not in the same class, we'll be together during recess," Sofia replied in her mature and calm demeanor, almost like Dean while Calvin was a bit harsh and had to get what he wanted, almost like Bryana.

"You must have forgotten me because you're going to make new friends," Calvin said then shook his head as his mother was about to wipe her face with melon-scented powder. "Mommy! I'm a boy. I can't use powder!"

"Just a little so that your face is fragrant and not dull." Bryana was forced to wipe Calvin's face with the powder that was already in the palm of her hand.

"Ugh, I don't like it!" Calvin wiped his face which was a bit smudged with powder. The boy loved to protest and was very mischievous. He ran out of the room before the shoes her mother had prepared were put on.

Bryana sighed, staring at the bedroom door which was open because Calvin was already out into the dining room. She turned to look at Sofia who was already looking neat wearing the same colored uniform as Calvin.

"Come on, honey, let's have breakfast," she called.

Sofia nodded obediently and immediately got off the bed and walked out of the room with her mother while Lauren prepared her bag and books and also Calvin.

Elsewhere, Alex seemed excited to go to work. he was neatly dressed in a black suit and silver tie, then combed his hair in a pompadé style.

"Are you coming with me this afternoon?" Alex asked, glancing at Elsa who was doing her makeup in front of the mirror.

"Where to?" Elsa asked. she already looks sexy in a blue knee-length dress with a slightly open chest and lets her shoulder-length hair loose.

"Meeting Calvin. He's back from London and today is his first day of school. I want to come to see him, bring him a present," Alex replied as he adjusted his tie.

"Just meet him at school, because I'm lazy if I have to go to his house, then meet Bryana who will refuse our presence," Elsa said in a curt tone.

"Just let Bryana act like that, the most important thing is that we focus on Calvin. Besides, Dean has promised to be the mediator so that Bryana won't be angry with me," said Alex casually, then walked to the table near the bed to get his car keys.

"I'll pick you up at the shooting location this afternoon if you'll come along," he said.

Elsa just stayed silent and lazy to respond while Alex left the room without paying attention to it.

"Bryana, Bryana, and always Bryana. Ever since he came back, Bryana and Calvin were always thinking of him, as if he didn't think of me as a wife!" Elsa huffed in annoyance, staring at her reflection in the mirror. "Am I not more beautiful than her? is my sacrifice still lacking so that you even ignore me by continuing to prioritize her?"

Elsa continued to chuckle in annoyance until the ringing of her smartphone which was on the edge of the bed distracted her. She immediately grabbed the sophisticated object and saw an incoming call from Carlos.

"It's him again. Isn't he tired of teasing me?"

Elsa answered the call forcefully, "hello!"

"Hello, my dear. Why do you sound so upset so early in the morning? What happened?" Carlos asked over the phone.

"I'm upset because I don't like getting calls from you!" Elsa replied curtly.

"Is that so? But I'm sure there's another reason you're in a bad mood in the morning."

"What's the point of you contacting me?" Elsa asked annoyed.

"I miss you, Elsa. I want to meet you, just for lunch or shopping. Buy whatever you want."

"Don't be crazy. I'm Alex's wife and Alex works with you! Don't ask me to be a traitor!" Elsa exclaimed, still annoyed that she hung up the phone. She immediately took her small white branded bag, then walked out of the room.

Vania met Carlos, who had slept with her last night. She saw the man sitting on the sofa in a gray bathrobe. 'He's trying to seduce Elsa again after having fun with me. Bastard,' she thought.

"Vania!" Called Carlos in a high tone, glancing at Vania who was still sitting on the edge of the bed wrapped in a thick white blanket. "Aren't you going to Dean's office today?" he asked.

"I'm tired, I want to stop," answered Vania languidly.

Immediately Carlos's gaze sharpened, then stood up and approached Vania while asking, "what do you mean tired? Weren't you the one who offered to approach him?"

"Yeah but he's too cold to other women. He rarely wants to look at me and he is rarely in the office," answered Vania in a frustrated tone.

"Then get out of this apartment and from now on I will never touch you. I don't want you anymore!" Carlos exclaimed casually.

"Carlos, you can't just go around like that!" said Vania in a high tone.

"I can do whatever I want. And I don't fuck you for free either. I give you what you want and from today on I'm going to stop doing that. Pack up and go if you really can't help me get Dean and his wife apart!" Carlos said firmly, pointing at Vania's face that already looked boring to him.
