That way, Elena's life can finally be saved. And he just needs time to recover and be able to move as usual again.

 At Brian's mansion, not long after the ambulance left, a police car arrived and with that Edward was taken to the police station.

​​

 .....

 Now Elena has been transferred to the VIP treatment room. The woman was still unconscious. And the doctor said that everything was fine. It took Elena a week or more to get home or be discharged from the hospital. Brian and Elise stood beside Elena's bed. They both fell silent.

 Elise's wound was bandaged and she didn't need to be hospitalized. He can rest alone at home. Who will look after Dean if he is hospitalized anyway. Elise would have been worried about the handsome baby considering how she had cried so hard earlier.

 "I'll stay here to look after Elena. You better go home and rest at home," Brian said breaking the silence that happened.

 "Yes," Elise didn't protest at all, because that was the plan she had in mind.

 "Go home, before the night gets late." Asked Brian who was a little worried about Elise. Because he couldn't take her home, so she had to go home alone.

 "Yes alright." Elise answered obediently, she approached Elena. And holding his right hand.

 "Elena, I hope you regain consciousness and recover quickly. Sorry, I should have received the knife from that criminal. You have suffered because of the similarity of our faces. But I promise that it won't happen again."

 Elise looked at Elena's pale face. She has decided to quickly speed up her divorce process from Brian and go to domestic screens. Ah, she will also do the things she likes, the things she endures to get a good daughter-in-law image in her eyes. Namely cutting her hair short and dyeing it maroon red. That way, no one would guess the identity between him and Elena anymore.

 After saying that, Elise turned to face Brian.

 "I'll go home first." After seeing Brian nod, Elise immediately walked away. He had to find a taxi to return to the mansion.

 After Elise left, the room was quiet and lonely again. Brian pulled out a chair and sat down by the bed. His eyes had been staring at Elena's beautiful face. Brian's hand reached out to grab Elena's right hand. And kiss it gently. Brian turned to look at Elena again.

 "Elena," said Brian in a low voice.

 "I'm sorry. The person you have to blame for all this is me. That man wanted to take revenge on me. And you were the one who was injured by his revenge action. I'm sorry Elena. Because I couldn't protect you."

 "When I saw you dying in the Tiara kidnapping incident, I swore to myself to protect and never let you get hurt badly again. But now you even get hurt again. And it's all because of me again."

 "Elena, I'm sorry. I promise I won't let that bastard get away with it. I'll torture him until he feels death is better than life." A glint of anger and hatred crossed Brian's eyes as he remembered the man who had killed Rena and injured Elena.

 There was no response or response from Elena for all of Brian's long words. There was still no sign that Elena would wake up soon.

 "Elena, I will protect you and Dean. I won't let anyone hurt you two." Brian promise.

 "Elena, when are you going to open your eyes? I miss your pretty eyes that look at me."

 One hand Brian rubbed Elena's cheek. The woman's face still looks pale. And Brian couldn't get rid of his worries about Elena's condition before he saw her wake up and smile at her.

 Brian's body rose and bent slightly over Elema's body. Then he gave a kiss on Elena's pale lips.

 ***

 "I will always be by your side, now and for all eternity." After that he sat back on the chair and continued to stare at Elena's face.

 Brian stayed up all night. He hopes that when Elena realizes for the first time, Brian can see it. So, Brian endured sleepiness and continued to see Elena's face without ever getting bored.

 .....

 Sunlight came in through the window and illuminated Elena's ward. Brian, who intends to look after Elena all night, finally falls asleep just past midnight. The man is still in his position, sitting beside Elena's bed. His hand was still tightly gripping Elena's hand. And his head lay on the edge of the bed right beside Elena's arm.

 Elena still hasn't regained consciousness since last night. But suddenly her lashes trembled and her eyelids slowly lifted. Elena blinked her eyes repeatedly at the glare of light that entered her eyes suddenly. Until finally he opened his eyes wide and stared at the white roof above. Then turn to the side. The sun glare from the window made Elena narrow her eyes, she turned her head and looked around. Where is this?

 Until finally Elena's eyes locked on the man sleeping beside her bed.

 "Brian," Elena whispered hoarsely. Her throat felt very dry.

 Elena looked at Brian's face. The man's head lay on the edge of the bed with his face facing Elena.

 It's been a long time since the last time Elena was able to see Brian's sleeping face by her side. So long that Elena forgot when it happened. Elena looked at Brian's face. When Brian fell asleep, the look on his face was so peaceful and innocent. Elena seemed to see a child who was sleeping soundly until without her noticing a smile appeared on her beautiful face. Elena remembered how the sleeping face Dean was. The fat baby has a face like Brian. Pointed nose. Small but thick lips. Thick black eyebrows and long lashes. Elena even wondered how a man could have lush eyelashes like Brian. Elena's left hand moved. He had a strong desire to touch those lashes. Want to feel if it's real and how it feels when you touch his finger.
