Husband's Regrets: Revenge Marriage
(MM&GL) CHAPTER 34. Complicated.

Devan sees everything, sees Joana crying until her little shoulder is shaken. Don't ask how he feels right now. He hugged the woman and calmed her down or said that everything would be fine.

However, that feeling is eroded by the guilt and confidence he lost in assuming Joana will not be able to vote for him. Joana even blatantly said that she wanted to stay away from him. Devan no longer wanted to hurt the woman. Devan thinks that maybe releasing Joana is the best option so that the woman is no longer tormented if she is with him.

Devan leaves as soon as Joana returns to her room. He did not sleep immediately, but he deliberately swam in the middle of the cold night.

Devan has always been this way, he would rather torture himself than vent his anger on Joana and would hurt the woman again. He let his body shiver in the cold and felt very claustrophobic as he continued swimming and then slowly let his body be embraced by the gripping darkness.

At what time Joana fell asleep last night, she had already prepared her resolve as soon as morning came, she was about to leave Devan's house. After all, the man himself told her to do what she liked, so why did she continue to stay there?

After cleaning herself up, Joana changed her clothes to normal clothes. He didn't want to bring anything because he came here and didn't bring anything. He walked out of his room with a pair of clothes he was wearing.

However, as he exited the room, he was quite surprised to see some servants seem very busy in front of the room that he knew was now occupied by Devan.

"Tita, what's going on?" Joana immediately asked Tita as the woman passed by in front of her.

"Mr Devan is sick, Miss. Last night he swam," said Tita, the woman was carrying the food requested by Ken for Devan.

Joana is shocked to hear that Devan is sick. "The guy is stupid or what? Why swim at night?" joana grumbled between annoyed and also worried.

"Ish, what do I care about him for? She doesn't need me anymore" said Joana, getting upset when she remembered Devan had dumped her.

Joana tries to ignore the sick Devan. He focused on walking out of the house because that was his main goal.

However, he could not help but think of the figure of the man who had injured him so many times. Finally Joana turned her steps back to where Devan's room was.

There are several Devan men who stand guard including Tita. They immediately saluted as soon as Joana came.

"Miss," said Tita greeting.

"How is he doing?" joana asked as she glanced at Devan's tightly closed room.

"The doctor is still checking his condition" said Tita.

Joana nodded, waiting there to know how Devan was doing. A little while later a doctor came out with Ken who made Joana stand up.

Ken sees Joana at a glance, he then chatted for a moment with the doctor who had just examined Devan and allowed him to leave.

"Ken, how's Devan doing?" ask Joana directly.

"Miss cares about Mister or makes sure that your actions have succeeded?" knock Ken with his cynical look.

"What do you mean?" Joana was shocked and confused to hear Ken's words.

"No, today Mr. Devan does not want to be disturbed and anyone should not enter his room" Ken told everyone there.

Joana bit her lips, she ventured to hold Ken's hand as the man was about to leave.

"I want to see it, I promise I will only see, will not do anything" Joana asked with a hopeful look.

Ken took a deep breath before nodding. "Later, if Mr. Devan is asleep."

Joana nodded quickly, no problem if you have to wait. He just wanted to see how Devan was, after that maybe he could go quietly.

Joana opened the door to Devan's room very slowly so as not to wake the man up. For almost an hour he waited outside and Ken just let him in because Devan was asleep. Seeing Devan who was now lying with his pale face, there was no more fierce face that the man often showed. Now Devan looks like an ordinary human being who can also get sick.

Joana then sat her body next to the man, her hands outstretched to touch Devan's forehead, but she was shocked when she felt her body temperature was very hot.

"It's very hot" said Joana increasingly worried about Devan's condition.

Joana then saw the ice water and the towel that was beside the man. He immediately took it and began compressing Devan's forehead painstakingly.

However, before he did it his hand was already blocked by Devan so that makes Joana surprised.

"Don't I ban anyone from coming here?" devan said as he opened his eyes slowly.

Devan let out a long sigh, he got up from his sleep and stared lazily at Joana.

"Why come here? Stubborn," ketus Devan.

"I want to know how you are doing" replied Joana to be honest.

"Come," said Devan.

"Huh?" Joana looked up for a moment.

Devan clucked slowly, he pulled Joana's waist quickly and then pressed his forehead against the woman's forehead.

"Dev!" joana shouted trying to make a revolt.

"Don't you want to know how I am? Now feel it yourself," said Devan still stick his forehead on Joana's forehead.

Joana was surprised to hear that, her position was very close to Devan at this time. Not only could she feel Devan's body temperature, but Joana could feel Devan's warm breath.

"Your body is very hot, I'll compress it immediately." Joana hurriedly distanced herself, she felt her heart was not fine if it continued to be close to Devan like this.

"No, you better get out. I don't want you to catch it later" Devan said.

"That's it. Why do you have to swim at night anyway?" namel Joana while taking a towel and began compressing Devan.

"I'm just finishing my sick rations" Devan said.

"Ck, where is there like that? Come here, I'll compress you," because Joana slightly pulled Devan's hand to get close to him.

Devan was silent, according to what Joana ordered. But he kept staring at the woman nonstop.

"Why did you come to me again? Are you worried?" devan asked suddenly.

"I'm not worried." Joana was evasive. "I just want to make sure you're okay, at least the waiters here don't bother you later. And I guess, maybe this is all I can give you before I leave," continued Joana in a choked voice.

Intentionally not wanting to see Devan, he was afraid that his heart would weaken again later. He has to leave because Devan doesn't want him anymore.

"Is he really so eager to get away from me?" devan asked, just like Joana, she was also holding back her feelings.

"Yes, that's what I wanted a long time ago, right? After all, you don't need me anymore" said Joana, trying hard to hold back her tears from coming out. He focused on compressing Devan so that he could recover quickly and he could leave quietly.

"If I asked you to stay, would you still leave?"

The sparkling lights shone alternately along with the music played out loud. Outside the sun was still very bright, but in the room there were already a lot of people who were drunk and dancing with each other. There are also other parts that are playing the casino seriously while accompanied by beautiful women who faithfully pour drinks beside him.

A tall man entered the room. His arrival was not particularly striking, but the man slowly approached a drinking man and embraced him.

"One candy cane will make you happier. Seeing a very beautiful paradise and become the most awaited happiness of the world. Stay mixed with drinks, wussss ... The miracle will come."

The man whispered in a seductive tone, putting a small candy into the glass containing the drink.

"Sabu-sabu and inex are too common. The effect is only a few hours, right? With this one candy, you can feel your happiness at any time" he whispered again as the target began to hesitate.

"Sounds interesting, but we can't betray Devandra" said the target.

"Cashhh ... It's not about Devandra, but it's between the two of us. He won't know, just shut up and call me. I'll send the goods quickly, how?"

The man continued to seduce the target until he really wanted to buy the candy he sold. After getting target one, the man does not stop immediately, but he is constantly looking for targets for the candy he sells so that Devan's goods are no longer needed.

In a sense he wants to shift the market belonging to Devan who has been controlled by the man for many years.

"Baji ngan it's time to retire and enjoy his old age. It is now the younger time to replace him. Because the younger ones are more craze, hahaha ... Devandra Dawson, your glory days are coming to an end ...."

The man spoke loudly because he had started to become unconscious after consuming the candy he had just produced. Soon the product will certainly skyrocket and replace Devan's products that have dominated the underground world market.
