Second Marriage: My Strongest Bodyguard

Chapter 23 - Kareen's Annoyance

When he arrived at the office, Dean walked following Bryana with hesitant steps because at that moment the employees who were dominated by beautiful girls stared at him with squinting their eyes.

"Did Dean get promoted?"

"Is he no longer a bodyguard? But this morning he was still a bodyguard."

"Whether he's promoted or still a bodyguard, I just can't deny that he is a handsome and gorgeous man. His charisma as a boss shines strongly on his handsome and charming face."

two female employees whispered to each other while glancing at Dean who was walking beside Bryana so that they didn't focus on work anymore and even forgot to say hello to their boss who was passing by.

Arriving at the elevator, Bryana immediately entered followed by Dean and also several other employees who turned out to be Monica and Kareen. The four of them silently waited for each other for the elevator that took them to the floor they were looking for.

'Somehow, I don't like her. looks like she had interested with Dean,' Bryana thought occasionally glancing at Kareen who had been glancing at Dean who was standing on Bryana's left side.

"Monica, after this you and also ...." Bryana glanced at Kareen.

"Kareen, Mrs," Kareen continued telling her the name that Bryana might not have memorized.

"Ah yes Kareen, you also come to my room," Bryana exclaimed with a flat gaze, then returned to focus on looking ahead.

When the elevator opens, Monica and Kareen invite Bryana to come out, followed by Dean. after the boss and the bodyguards left, they followed suit, so they entered the CEO's room which was located near the secretarial room.

Bryan walked to her desk and sat in his oversized chair while Dean stopped and stood at the door. Monica and Kareen approached Bryana, who immediately invited them to take a seat.

"I just got to the point, because soon there will be a meeting," said Bryana with a cold gaze at the two female employees.

Correction. Kareen is still a prospective employee. will she get the position Bryana needs, namely as a personal assistant and confidant?

"I'll decide straight away from ..." Bryana glanced at Kareen. "For you, I will accept as secretary and Monica will be my confidant."

Kareen frowned then glanced at Monica as if to protest. 'she said her boss would make me a confidant but why is her decision now being exchanged?'

"I am promoted, Mrs?" Monica stared at Bryana with sparkling eyes. Of course, she is happy because she will be promoted.

"Because you have been working with me for a long time, that's why I chose you to be my confidants," Bryana explained with a smile looking at Monica, who she already trusted.

Kareen let out a harsh sigh and chose to remain silent because she didn't dare to reject the decision.

"Kareen, if you can't accept the position of secretary, I can't insist. You can apply for another company because I can't make you a confidant while you're new here," Bryana explained when she realized Kareen's displeased expression. 'if you weren't flirting with Dean, maybe I could give you that title,' she thought as she looked lazily at Kareen.

"I accept this position, Mrs. Because I am grateful to be able to join this company," said Kareen with a forced smile.

Bryana smiles back at Kareen with a fake smile too. "Starting tomorrow, you can work as a secretary. Monica will explain about this company," she exclaimed.

"Fine, Mrs. Excuse me then," Kareen replied and then got up from her seat and greeted Bryana.

"Welcome to join our company," said Bryana while greeting Kareen.

Kareen just smiled and nodded then took off the shake. she immediately left Bryana's room, but as she passed Dean, her steps slowed down, and stared at him with a sad gaze.

"Why?" whispered Dean, frowning.

Kareen just shook her head and left Dean without answering.

'What is wrong with her? Did Jill turn down her job application? ' Dean hurried after Kareen.

Bryana, who was socializing with Monica, also glanced at Dean's departure following Kareen. The young widow also exhaled a rough breath because she felt jealousy seeing her cool and handsome bodyguard catching up with the girl she didn't like.

"Are you okay, Mrs?" Monica asked as she turned towards the empty door where no one else was because Dean was still chasing Kareen.

"Nothing, you just have the files ready for the meeting," Bryana exclaimed with her data stages.

Monica nodded obediently and immediately got out of the chair. she walked out of Bryana's office feeling so excited that from tomorrow she would be moving up the ranks.

Dean chased after Kareen who was walking down the corridor until he came to the elevator. He went into the elevator with his friend.

"Kareen, what's wrong with you? Are you not accepted?" Dean gave Kareen a worried look. Even though he didn't like her as love, he considered her to be like his own younger sister. Of course, the man was worried when the girl looked sad and disappointed.

"Your boss doesn't keep promises even though I chose this company because of the position offer from Monica who said her boss needed a trusted person, but it turned out that I was only replaced by Monica," Kareen explained with a tinge of disappointment on her face as she stared at the elevator door.

dean sighed, glancing at Kareen, who was not grateful to have got the secretarial position which for him was quite high. "You should be grateful for being accepted. Whatever the position, it will make money. I think, Jill also has a very good reason not to make you a confidant, because you are still new. "

"Jill?" Kareen didn't understand why Dean called his boss Bryana "Jill".

"I mean, Bryana. her name is Bryana Jill Darlene," explained Dean who blurted out.

"Oh."

The lift is open. Dean and Kareen immediately got out, they stopped near the elevator right near the cream-colored wall that dominated the building.

"Just accept the position, because Bryana is a good boss and you will be comfortable here," said Dean while tapping Kareen on the shoulder.

"Okay, what do you say? Looks like she's only kind to certain people." Kareen glanced at Dean who was dressed like a boss after going out to lunch with Bryana. hem, she sniffed the smells of love between Dean and Bryana. Of course, it made her burn and jealous.

Dean watched his own body because of the glance from Kareen. "Why look at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?"

"sHe likes you, Dean," said Kareen with a look of dislike then walked away leaving Dean who looked surprised by her words.

'Jill likes me, don't you? It seems impossible, I'm not her taste.' Dean shook his head in disbelief and entered the elevator back to the floor where Bryana's room was.

While in the elevator, Dean smiled to himself, wondering whether Bryana liked him? Why did Kareen suspect that? the man seemed happy because his love was not unrequited, but he again realized who he was, what his position was, it made him seem to run aground in an instant.

'I'm just a grain of dust for her,' thought Dean, leaning against the wall.
