Trapped by My Ex's Love Curse 7. Overprotective
Shienna arrived at a familiar building. She turned to Bryan when they reached the lobby and stepped into the skyscraper she knew was Bryan's office. Several employees who had been busy working got up and faced Bryan and Shienna, an assistant, and several bodyguards followed. "Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Sanders!" They greeted. Shienna and Bryan received the same greeting every time they met another employee, even when entering the elevator. "Not the 21st floor, Bertha. Take us to 21A," Bryan ordered as the neatly uniformed woman was about to press the button she usually pressed every time she escorted her boss to the penthouse. Today, for the first time, Bryan asked Bertha to take him to the penthouse above his personal space. She nodded, took the card out of her pocket, and held it up to the sensor on the elevator wall. One side of the elevator opened to reveal a few buttons that she pressed, and the metal box they were riding in immediately went to the floor Bryan wanted. They ar

Shienna looked at Ray as he stepped out of her penthouse with a sad look. Shienna was unwilling to let go of a bodyguard as reliable as Ray, who had made her feel safe wherever she was. However, one thing she emphasized to Ray was that he should keep her updated on his situation, and if he ever needed help, she would be able to help him. Plus, there is a promise that Shienna will use his services again when her business with Bryan ends. This time, it was Jennifer's turn to sit not far from Shienna's place, who seemed hesitant to start the conversation. "Shie, are you sure you'll agree with your husband's decision? Are you going to dismiss me? Is this the end of our friendship?" "Tsk! Of course not, idiot! I don't want to make trouble with that psycho guy. Didn't you hear what he said last night? Your presence here is just as a friend, not my assistant anymore. That means you can stay here for the rest of your life." Jennifer rolled her eyes as she heard Shienna's explanation. That

Shienna smiled happily as she saw the package arrive, and she unwrapped it. Jennifer sent the piano and other musical instruments to the penthouse, bringing her to sudden tears. "Oh, look at that! She's so considerate of me," Shienna muttered as she wiped away the tears and dialed the number on her cell phone screen. "J... are you free? I want to meet you and thank you for your concern." "What? What for, Shie? Never mind... I did that as your assistant, so consider it my duty, and you've paid a good amount. Your husband has also added a severance bonus for me," Jennifer replied. "What? Are you sure he increased the severance bonus for you? Why would he do that?" "I don't know. Ask your husband." "No, I won't. I want to hear from you. La Café, at lunchtime. I don't want any rejection. This is a reunion of friends, and you must make time, okay?" After getting an affirmative answer from her friend, Shienna went back to opening some packages and arranging them in the empty room that

Shienna finally made it out of the crowd and arrived back at the penthouse. She was now holed up in her room, not opening the door—no matter who knocked from outside. She had no idea who to trust. Bryan didn't say anything when they got married, not even when she and he talked about the contract, the terms of which she forgot to double-check. However, their marriage was not based on love, so was it right for her to ask for clarity from her husband on this matter? Knock, knock, knock! "Shie, it's me. Elea said you've been reluctant to leave the room since earlier. What happened?" asked a voice that Shienna knew very well must be Bryan. However, she was reluctant to meet anyone for now. She was depressed. As long as she was a public figure, she had never once dealt with romance. Let alone being a suspect in the destruction of someone's relationship. She had always been betrayed and cheated on, and now she was making a man cheat on his fiancee. Could it be true what the woman at the c

Shienna woke up with an aching body that made her reluctant to leave the bed. Instead, she pulled the covers up and lay still until she heard a knock on the door."Mrs. Sanders, are you awake? I've prepared your breakfast and vitamins. You have a check-up at the gynecologist today, and... you'll be doing yoga in the gym today with a maternity yoga trainer and Mr. Sanders," said the woman from outside.Hearing the assistant's explanation, Shienna was forced to get up and open the door for her. "Why don't you come in?" she asked."I'm afraid you're not awake yet, ma'am.""I'm awake now," Shienna replied as she stepped towards the dining table where breakfast and everything she needed was served. "Could you repeat my schedule for today, Elea?"Elea nodded, then repeated what Shienna had asked earlier while calmly enjoying the food in front of her, and once again, she couldn't finish it all.Shienna was silent for a moment as if she was thinking about something. However, a moment later, s

Shienna woke up and realized that it was past seven in the evening. She scrambled to her feet and checked the room outside and found no Bryan there."How could I have fallen asleep? What about the yoga instructor?" she muttered, rushing to put on her sleeping robe and head over to Bryan, but decided against it when she remembered what happened when she came to the 21st floor that night. "Uh, no! Forget it. It's late anyway. There's no way I'm doing pregnancy exercises at this time of night."Shienna was still standing in front of the elevator when the elevator doors suddenly opened, and a scantily clad woman was standing there. Without excusing herself, she stepped into the room and sat down on the sofa."Can you call Bryan? I have an appointment with him," the woman said, giving orders to Shienna, who looked disheveled as she had just woken up after sleeping since noon."Who are you dare to command me? Don't you know me?" asked Shienna, looking annoyed."Do I know you? I'm... you kno

Bryan entered Shienna's room and found no one in the room. The door was open. Bryan approaches, thinking that Shienna is relaxing inside, but he sees nothing, including her clothes.He was wide-eyed in disbelief. Shienna had never said anything before, so he was sure that she must have agreed to the agreement she had signed. However, given the circumstances, Bryan thought she must have been trying to escape.Bryan rushed out and took the public elevator so that he was now on the first floor and headed to the front desk to see if the staff had seen Shienna leave."We did see Mrs. Sanders walking around with a large bag a few minutes ago, but we assumed she was doing it with your permission, sir.""Damn it! What a spoiled brat! What is she doing?" muttered Bryan angrily. He then hurried to find Shienna's whereabouts, which he was sure must not be too far away. He then called the bodyguard he had hired to guard Shienna. "What have you been doing that you didn't know my wife was gone?!"B

A ray of light burst through the gap in the curtains, making Shienna blink and stretch before getting up slowly. She surveyed the room she was in, and her brow furrowed. "I'm not in my room?" she muttered. "This is that bastard's room. Why am I here?" Shienna put on her sleeping robe and went outside, finding Bryan asleep on the couch with the television on. Shienna turned off the big screen and checked the dining table. There was nothing there. The servants must have been preparing the food. She learned many new things Since living with Bryan, one of which was that the kitchen in each of their penthouses was a dry kitchen, which they used to prepare simple meals. As for the big dishes, they processed them in the central kitchen located on that floor as well. Right near the elevator. Shienna unconsciously admired the design of the building she was living in. She wondered how long Bryan had been building his business to own the magnificent skyscraper that was his apartment business.

"What happened to you, Shie? Let's go back to the room, hold on." Bryan held his wife, who no longer had the strength to resist, even to get away when once again the scent of Bryan's body disturbed her.She surrendered when Bryan laid her down on the bed and quickly grabbed her cell phone to call Ryan Karl."Yes, Bryan. My friend is already on his way. He called a few minutes ago. Please wait."Before they could finish their conversation, one of the servants knocked on the door and informed them that a doctor was waiting outside. Bryan asked the waiter to let the doctor in and conduct an immediate examination."Do you have nausea and vomiting almost every day?" the doctor asked as he placed a stethoscope on Shienna's chest and checked her pulse."Yes. Even like all the time. I don't like the smells I liked before and I think my sexual desire has decreased since then. I don't know," Shienna replied, throwing a look at her husband who was paying attention to every detail the doctor was

Bryan is still thinking about Amara after Edward's men surrounded and crashed her car into flames. However, there has been no further news regarding the incident so Edward concludes that Amara must have died on the spot.Meanwhile, Shienna didn't know anything about it. Bryan didn't want his wife to become agitated and think badly of Edward."Why do you look so nervous?" asked Shienna as she hugged Bryan from behind. "Did Ed tell you something bad?""Yes. But I wasn't thinking about that. I was just wondering what if we had another baby?" asked Bryan, who continued to look at Shienna with a loving gaze.Shienna was no longer afraid of having a baby, but would she be able to bear it if it was only their child who finally accompanied her through old age?Wouldn't it be a good idea to have something that came from Bryan so that she could remember him when he was gone?Bryan began their sacred ritual, fondling Shienna who never bored or tired him.

Two months later... Shienna and Bryan were recovering from surgery. Bryan looked much better, and Ryan stated he was in good shape. Ryan gave him a lot of advice to appreciate what he had, including his health. However, there was something he did not tell Bryan but only Shienna. "Regarding the condition of the kidneys and other organs, I can say there is no problem. However, the test results show that his lupus is still active, and I advise him to stay on medication." "Won't that affect the condition of her kidneys? Logically speaking, his new kidneys are no longer the same as his, especially after the surgery. That means his condition will deteriorate at any time, right?" Shienna's face began to stiffen. Especially after seeing the response from Ryan, her body felt boneless. "You mean he'll still be going?" Ryan's silence made Shienna draw her conclusions about Bryan's condition. God only knew what condition Bryan would be in after this. He might survive, or he might not. Shien

Bryan finally agreed and immediately called Edward and he arrived with Jennifer. Neither of them spoke while waiting for Bryan and Shienna's surgery to go smoothly. The nurse came out of the operating room several times, which was when Edward asked how Shienna and Bryan were doing.A few hours passed, the light at the top of the operating door lit up in green, meaning the operation was complete. Edward got up and immediately saw the doctor who had just left the room. Ryan and several specialists who helped with the operation, looked hurried then only Ryan finally stopped for a moment to answer his friend's anxiety."How is he, Ryan?" asked Edward with a worried look that he couldn't hide. This was Bryan's second time having surgery and it always managed to make him so anxious."The surgery went well, we're just waiting for Bryan and Shienna to wake up.""Please put them in the same room, it will speed up their recovery," Jennifer requested to which Ryan immediately replied with a nod

Shienna was on a fast-moving gurney in a semi-conscious state. She had been unconscious for some time after the doctor arrived and found her covered in blood with a penknife stuck in her right side. She could see the bright lights shining on her, and her eyes felt the glare. She closed her eyes for a moment, unable to bear the aches and pains in her waist and heavy eyes. "Shienna, open your eyes. Stay conscious. Shienna!" She kept hearing that voice calling her name. She had no idea where she was, but at a glance, she knew it was Ryan who was nearby. "Bryan..." Shienna murmured in a low voice. "Where is my husband?" "I'll let him know soon." Ryan was about to leave, but Shienna quickly grabbed his sleeve. "Please, don't say anything to him. Do the transplant now without telling him my condition. Can you do it?" "Uhm, Shie—" "Please, please... I'll survive. I promise. But Bryan won't get the same chance a second time. Please, Doc." Ryan turned to Shienna, who was also lo

Bryan had asked his confidant to check the locker, as Shienna had informed him, and found many things there. However, he agreed to keep Jun's files and belongings safe with a discreet guard. He had to ensure that Jun would release Edward from his charges. Jun eventually dropped the charges against Edward, saying that he had wrongly accused Edward while what happened to him was purely an accident. He also paid a high-ranking police officer who handled the case to acquit Edward. Edward was paroled today. Jennifer picked Edward up, but she and Bryan were reluctant to leave as they had other matters. Although Jun had withdrawn his charges, the case they were about to report was related to him. "I found this in Shienna's penthouse and my mom's room. I can't be sure who it belongs to because it's too small to check. Shienna said that gems like this are usually accessories or nail ornaments." Edward looked at the object in Bryan's hand before handing it to the police. "Why didn't

All eyes were wide and fixed on the woman standing before Bryan. There were no visible wounds, but then she was clutching a part of her body that was oozing fresh blood. Nearly staggering, Bryan scrambled to free himself from the man holding him, then rushed over to support his wife. "Shienna!" He called out her name in dismay, checking where on her body the gunshot had hit but found only a wounded arm. He took off his jacket and wrapped the wound. "Hold this tight, okay?" He let go of Shienna, who could sit up well because there were no severe injuries, which allowed Bryan to take care of other things he should have done earlier. He rushed at Jun, grabbing the man's windpipe and making him almost out of breath. "I should have finished you a long time ago, asshole! I let you live because of that lying bitch of yours. She seemed to pamper you so much that she was willing to lie and sleep with many men. To save you." Jun tried to shake off Bryan's hand, which kept a firm grip

Shienna arrived at her old home, as she had left Bryan early in the morning, and when she entered the house, she found no one but a few women working in the wet kitchen in the back building. She checked the other rooms, but nothing. There was no sign of Bryan anywhere. "Are you looking for Mr. Sanders, ma'am?" asked one of the servants who had noticed Shienna pacing back and forth with a confused look since arriving home. "Yes. Do you know where he is? Did he leave a message for me?" "Mr. Sanders just said he had some business to attend to and asked you to have lunch first. He'll be back as soon as everything is done." Hearing the waiter's words, Shienna grew even more anxious. She wondered what kind of trouble Bryan was in that he wouldn't let her know. Bryan hadn't contacted her either. He must have panicked when he couldn't find her anywhere, but why wasn't he bombarding her with calls and messages? Shienna decided to wait despite her current feelings. Bryan was so weak

Bryan's car stopped in the courtyard of a building that should have been familiar to Shienna. However, Bryan initially blindfolded Shienna, not wanting his wife to know where they were going. Bryan helped Shienna down and walked until they arrived at a courtyard that had previously been an empty lot. Now, several construction workers were building a magnificent building that Bryan was sure would make Shienna happy if she knew about it. He removed Shienna's blindfold and showed her the building, which had reached 70% construction and would soon be finished. Bryan had asked the construction workers to finish immediately because he couldn't guarantee he would last much longer. Shienna was silent when she saw what was in front of her. The other building she had planned to build, though she was not sure for what purpose, was now almost fully erected. She turned to Bryan, he still smiling, content to see her eyes glaze over. He thought she must be touched and very happy. "I know yo
