Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard - Chapter 271
“Are we just going to the clinic, madam?” asked Fin, focusing on driving. Sometimes he glanced at Bryana who was sitting beside him.
“I don’t know, we’ll see later,” said Bryana, then stretched out her hand to press the MP3 power button but it was at the same time with Fin until their hands touched. Hmm, that must have been on purpose by the man.
“Eh, sorry, Ma’am…I also won’t play music because it’s too quiet,” said Fin with an awkward smile.
“It’s okay, you just choose the song,” Bryana said casually.
“You choose, because the song I like, you don’t necessarily like it,” said Fin.
“In that case, okay.” Bryana swallows the MP3 button again until Sam Smith’s song “How do you sleep” appears.
“You like this song?” Fin asked.
“Yes, his voice is very melodious, like my husband,” Bryana replied, remembering Dean who had a hobby of singing. she can’t hide the smile on her face when she remembers when she was just married, Dean often sang to her, expressing his feelings through a verse that made her heart feel like it was flying.
Fin nodded in understanding and was annoyed that Bryana was too proud of Dean. “Your husband is very lucky to have you,” he said.
“I’m the lucky one to get him because he is a man with a gentle and sweet attitude that I dreamed of since my youth,” said Bryana casually. he never hesitated to tell Dean his admiration, even though Fin was the new Bodyguard. “Do you have a wife?” She asked.
Fin smirked as he focused on driving. “Never mind a wife, I even don’t have a girl,” he replied.
“Really?” Bryana looks incredulous because Fin is a handsome man with almost perfect posture as a man.
“With my mediocre life, I have not dared to find a mate. Many women today want to have a husband who has a permanent job, a big salary, a private house, and … That’s all I don’t have,” said Fin again with a low attitude.
“If there is a woman who is willing to marry with thoughts that refer to material things, it means she is willing to marry not for love,” Bryana said.
“But a lot of women are like that,” said Fin desperately.
“Hopefully you can find the type of woman who has the attitude of accepting a partner as they are because not all women only care about material things. Materials can be sought, but sincere love comes from the heart,” Bryana advised because she also saw Dean, not from material things.
Fin nodded in understanding until a few minutes the atmosphere became silent. Only the sound of the MP3 echoed playing a randomly rotating song. Sometimes he glanced at Bryana who preferred to stare at the view from behind the car window until he suddenly hit the brakes.
“Good grief!” Bryana was surprised even her body sat on her side on Fin’s shoulder. “What happened, Fin?” She asked annoyed.
“Sorry, ma’am. There was a cat or dog that suddenly crossed. I had to hit the brakes,” said Fin with an expression of guilt.
Bryana sighed, corrected her sitting position, and chose to remain silent again while Fin cheered with joy in his heart because he managed to make Bryana lean on his shoulder. He felt, the woman’s perfume had stuck to him, even he felt as if his heart was shaking violently.

At the photoshoot, suddenly Elsa, who was taking a break to change clothes and add make-up, was approached by Carlos. In the room filled with several models getting make-up, she looked annoyed at the man in the black suit.
“Why are you here?” She asked annoyed.
“To pick you up,” Carlos replied.
“To pick me up? Are you imagining I’ll be willing to come with you? You better not dream!” Elsa got up and let the make-up spray some kind of oil to make her chest shine as if sweating to add to the hot impression because she was an adult magazine model. In fact, at this time the woman was wearing a very minimal dress with the shoulders and half of her chest exposed.
Elsa was about to enter the studio for a photoshoot but Carlos grabbed her hand and said, “Come with me tonight. I want to give you something.”
“Carlos, don’t overdo it. what happened between us is over,” Elsa said in a whisper because she didn’t want the other models who were making up to hear her sensitive conversation with Carlos.
“I will not overdo it after you are willing to meet me tonight,” Carlos said conditionally.
“Yes, I will meet you!” Elsa said pressing, then released Carlos’ grip on hers. She rushed into the studio before the man got even more desperate.
Carlos returned to his car and immediately asked the driver to drive him to the office where Alex had already taken his place to meet some clients. ‘Inviting to make love to a friend’s wife, seems like a challenging thing. I can make Elsa fall into my arms, and Alex..let him try to pursue Bryana’s love again,’ he thought with an evil grin.

Arriving at the dermatologist’s clinic, Bryana immediately entered the clinic, which had a white nuance with a poster with a picture of a woman with a smooth face and an almost perfect body on the side of the entrance which was a glass door.
“Fin, you just wait for outside this is a special place for women,” Bryana exclaimed when Fin followed him instead.
“Okay then, I’ll wait at the security post,” said Fin with a look of disapproval.
Bryana sighed, feeling a little uncomfortable at Fin’s attitude, which was suspected of liking her. but she chose to remain calm and focus on undergoing treatment on the surface of his stomach which has many surgical scars. The first one was from surgery when giving birth to Calvin, stabbed by Alex, and while giving birth to Aidyn. She felt she had to fix the condition of her stomach which she thought was very bad.
Outside, Fin chose to sit in a post-security chair while playing with his cell..phone. He was silent staring at the photo of Bryana he saw from Instagram.
‘I have to make her admire me, make her think that I’m just like her husband who she considers like her guardian angel,’ she thought until her cell phone rang with an incoming call from Lucas.
Reluctantly, Fin answered the call, “hello!”
“Hello, Finn. are you okay?” Lucas asked over the phone.
“Yeah, so what?” Fin asked curtly back, Because he didn’t like it if Lucas forbade him to approach Bryana.
“I’m worried about you, Fin. The house you are now living in is the house of your late father’s enemy. if any of the people in the house knew you were the son of lord Gustave, they would definitely make you miserable!”
“No one knows who I am. You better shut up and run our business well. I make sure one day I will come back with Bryana as my life partner!” he shouted firmly then hung up the phone. He was silent again and thought about what he should do to make Bryana pay more attention to him.
