In the afternoon.

Because she continued to feel nausea, dizziness, and unable to digest anything she ate, Bryana was getting weaker. A worried Dean called Dr. Clara again to check on the condition of his pregnant wife.

"This is purely the effect of being pregnant, right? Our baby is fine, right?" Bryana asked with a look of hope because she was very weak and worried about the safety of her womb.

"This is a result of rising hormones. The baby is healthy, but Mrs. Bryana can become dehydrated if she doesn't get enough food intake. I will put in an IV so that Mrs. Bryana is not too weak." Dr. Clara explained while looking at Bryana who was lying limp on the bed.

"Just do it," Dean shouted. Bryana nodded in agreement because she was very weak and she hated this kind of situation.

The doctor immediately put in an IV which was also given an injection of vitamins to speed up Bryana's recovery.

Dean sat on the sofa staring at Bryana angrily. He didn't think that just because was pregnant, his wife would have to be sick and look so helpless. even though his wife used to be tough, firm, and wild.

Calvin and Sofia, who had taken a shower and looked presentable in casual clothes, entered their parents' room to see the condition of their mother who was being examined by the doctor.

"Dad..." Sofia called as she walked over to her father who was sitting on the sofa. Calvin also followed while glancing at his mother on the bed, being put on an IV by the doctor.

"Will mommy be okay?" Calvin asked worriedly.

"Mommy will be fine. The doctor is treating her.you have to pray for her to get well soon and the baby will stay healthy in mommy's belly," Dean reassured Calvin and Sofia who was now sitting beside him.

Until a few minutes passed, Dr. Clara had finished placing the IV in Bryana's right hand which she hung from a two-meter support post to the right of the bed.

"I will come tomorrow morning to check her condition again. If you have any complaints or problems, call me," said Dr. Clara is wearing silver cotton trousers combined with a cream-colored top and wearing a white medical coat. She looks beautiful with her hair pinned back and from her face looks like she is in her 30s.

"Okay. Thank you," Dean replied as he got up and walked over to Bryana.

"Give her snacks, cereals, or whatever, the important thing is not spicy and too oily," said Dr. Clara.

dean nodded in understanding, then sat on the edge of the bed right next to Bryana, while Dr. Clara packed up the inspection equipment and put it back in a rather large white box.

Inside the secret room, Dany saw the condition of the rat that he had given to drink the milk that Bryana used to drink. He smiled with satisfaction when he saw that the rat looked healthy and even more lively while the other rat died.

Drett ... Drett...His smartphone which was in his basic pants pocket which had many pockets equipped with a bodyguard device rang. Dany immediately reached into his pocket and took the phone. He sees an incoming call from Monica.

"Hello, Monica," said Dany when he was connected to Monica.

"How, did the rat die after drinking the milk Bryana used to drink?" Monica asked over the phone. Maybe the girl is still in the office.

"No, it's still alive and looks strong. I think Mrs. Bryana's sick is normal. Doctors also didn't find any disease or anything that put her in danger," said Dany.

"Thank God. I'm very relieved. Since then I can't focus on work because I think about Bryana. Because Dean said, now Bryana is undergoing treatment at home."

"Yes, Dr. Clara was here, but she's back. Maybe it's checked and I don't see Dean panicking anymore. Maybe Bryana is just ordinary sick." Dany spoke as she walked out of the secret room.

"Okay then, I'll turn off the phone."

"Yeah."

the telephone connection was lost. Dany immediately stowed his smartphone back into his trouser pocket. He was back in charge of guarding the back gate with Louis.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Dean was in the kitchen making the mung bean-flavored cereal Bryana had requested. either by coincidence or what, Kareen was also in the kitchen making hot chocolate.

"Hi, Dean, you look like an office boy today," Kareen said with a smile.

"It's not like an office boy, but this is a form of sincere love for a husband who takes care of his sick wife," Dean explained as he brewed the cereal powder that was already located in a white glass.

Kareen smiled but her heart was hurt. "Ah yes, how is your wife doing?" She asked.

"It's getting pretty good," Dean replied flatly. He immediately walked out of the kitchen, leaving Kareen who kept trying to approach him by badmouthing Bryana.

'Just watch, your wife will surely miscarry slowly,' Kareen thought with a sly smile.

Arriving in the room, Dean sat on the edge of the bed and gave the cereal drink to Bryana who was sitting back on a pile of pillows."Are the kids asleep?" Bryan asked.

"Yes, I've asked Lauren to sleep with them tonight," Dean replied casually. He climbed into the middle of the bed and lay down beside Bryana who was drinking cereal with a spoon.

Dean tilted his position and touched Bryana's belly which was still flat. "I didn't think that just because you were pregnant with my child, you would be so weak. I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault, honey. This is the risk as a mother. It makes me weak, but he or she will be born and grow become strong like you," Bryana said then continued to feed a spoonful of cereal into her mouth.

"You fought to bear my child, you did a lot for me. I love you more and more." Dean put his arm around Bryana's waist.

Bryana blushed with a happy smile at Dean's words, then put the half cup of cereal left on the table. She turned to look down at Dean who was hugging part of her body because she was sitting while Dean was lying down.

"You've also done a lot, made a lot of changes for me. You're very patient and understanding in dealing with my possessive attitude," Bryana said while brushing Dean's hair.

"I like that possessive attitude. I feel very loved and very valuable to you," said Dean looking up at Bryan.

Bryan smiled. "Because you are precious to me."

Dean sat down and kissed Bryana on the lips very gently for a few moments. Bryana also returned the kiss a little aggressively. After all, she had not kissed all day because she was sick.

"If I wasn't sick," Bryana muttered after Dean finished the kiss.

"Why if it doesn't sick?" asked Dean, raising an eyebrow.

"Maybe tonight is the schedule for lovemaking," Bryana replied, smiling shyly.

Dean chuckled in his baritone voice. he sighed and put his arm around Bryana from the side, letting her shoulders rest on his wife's head.

"When it heals, I will pamper you every night. Because I know, my wife is getting wilder since there is a baby in her belly," he said exasperatedly.

"Hehe... I don't know." Bryana chuckled shyly. She turned to look at the IV needle attached to her right hand. "I can't stay away from you, or suppress my desire. This damn infusion gives me energy back, but I can't make love to you."

"So you have to be strong and get well soon," Dean exclaimed, glancing at Bryana's half cup of cereal. "Finish the cereal. If it's too cold it won't taste good."

"Feed me," cried Bryana spoiled.

"Okay, I'll feed my wife who suddenly became a big baby," said Dean then stretched out his hand to take the glass.

Bryana glanced at Dean who called herself a "big baby" then asked, "You said I'm a baby? How can a baby carry a baby?"

"I'm just kidding, honey. Don't be mad," Dean said patiently shoving the cereal into Bryana's mouth with a spoon. "Now finish this cereal to get well soon and have the energy to make love."

Bryana smiled shyly as she devoured every mouthful that Dean gave her.. sometimes she is embarrassed when she realizes that her spoiled and sensitive attitude is too much, but she doesn't know, because that attitude seems to just appear.
