The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 772 Is He Falling For Her?

Olive visited Clifford at Sy Corp. She didn't give up the thought of winning Clifford back. She had been busy for the past few days because of her new project.

She had an out-of-town show for her designs. She just came back yesterday to the City of Empire.

Upon reaching Clifford's office, she found out from Dexter, Clifford's assistant that Clifford was on leave. He was in the Chou hospital.

Thinking that it was Clifford who got hospitalized, Olive decided to see him in the hospital.

Meanwhile, Clifford just arrived after buying chocolates for Bianca.

"Here's your chocolates. Is there something else you want to eat?" Clifford asked her while handing the assorted chocolates over to Bianca.

Bianca's eyes sparkled with delight. She loved eating sweets.

"Hmm. These are enough. Thanks, Boss Cliff! You just made my day!" Bianca responded, hugging the chocolates.

Clifford could only smile helplessly. She had simple happiness. But he was glad that she liked it.

"I will buy you some drinks."

Clifford stood up and was about to leave the ward when the door suddenly swung open. Olive immediately pounced on him.

Both Clifford and Bianca were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of Olive. She was hugging Clifford tightly, her face covered with worries and concerns for him.

Bianca wondered who this stunning woman was. On the other hand, Clifford felt so awkward because of Olive's action. He gently pushed her away.

"What are you doing here?" Clifford asked her coldly. He sounded unhappy to see her.

"I heard that you were here so I visited you. Are you alright?" Olive mumbled. She spoke like she was a concerned girlfriend.

Clifford frowned. He didn't expect to see Olive here. He was already scolding Dexter in his mind. He believed that his assistant was the one who told Olive where he was right now.

"I'm just fine. You should leave now." Clifford was sending her away.

Bianca was just there, watching them. He didn't want her to see his interactions with Olive. He couldn't pretend to be kind in front of Olive. He was being cold and indifferent toward her.

"Cliff, please… don't send me away. I am so worried about you. Can't you see? I still care about you. Please give me another chance," Olive said desperately.

The frown on his forehead deepened. He immediately grabbed Olive's hand, dragging her out of the VIP ward.

"We are currently in the hospital, Olive. This is not a proper place and a proper time to discuss this. Please just leave!"

"Why can't you forgive me, Clifford? I already regretted everything. Please, I want you back."

"Olive! Stop this. We are already over! I don't have any plans of coming back to you. I might forgive you but it doesn't mean we can be together again. Don't waste your time, Olive."

"No! I can't Cliff! I still want you!" She insisted.

"But I don't love you anymore. Stop this madness, Olive. We are over. Accept it and just move on."

Olive started crying in front of him. She was still having a hard time accepting this. It was so hard to let go. She thought as long as she would show him how sincere she was, Clifford would go back to her.

With a heavy heart, Olive left Clifford as she walked away. Every rejection from him was like a shard dagger piercing through her heart.

Clifford just watched her back with complicated emotions on his face. He didn't mean to make her cry but he couldn't bring back the past. His heart was no longer beating for her.

Clifford went inside the ward looking a little bit gloomy. Bianca noticed the changes in his expression. He was not in a mood now. She believed that the woman had something to do with it.

Bianca was curious about what happened to them but she was hesitating to ask him.

Clifford just walked over, approaching Bianca. He sat on the vacant chair beside her bed.

"Do you think I was so rude and harsh while talking to her a while ago? Did I disappoint you?" Clifford suddenly asked Bianca out of the blue.

Bianca didn't expect to hear that from Clifford. She didn't know why he was asking her this kind of question.

"To tell you the truth, I can't judge you since I don't know the story between you and her. Besides, my opinion about this doesn't matter… It's your personal life." Bianca said, responding to Clifford.

Clifford lowered his head. "Then let me tell you what happened between us. Are you willing to listen?"

Bianca was at a loss for words. She had never imagined that Clifford was willing to open up with her, telling her about his story.

Bianca listened to Clifford attentively when he told her about his past relationship with Olive.

"Can you blame me for being cold to her?"

Bianca shook her head.

"Are you still affected by her, that's why you are acting like this?" Bianca asked him curiously.

Clifford looked up, gazing at her intently. "No… I am not affected by her anymore!"

Bianca eyed him suspiciously, her lips curved into a teasing smile.

"Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Don't you believe me? Am I not believable?"

Bianca giggled. She just wanted to lighten Clifford's mood by teasing him. But Clifford took it differently.

"Hey Bianca, stop laughing at me."

But Bianca didn't listen. She just continued laughing, teasing Clifford. Getting annoyed, Clifford caught Bianca, holding her shoulders.

He didn't know what had gotten into him but he just suddenly leaned over, sealing Bianca's lips.

Bianca froze in her spot when she felt Clifford's lips pressing against her mouth. She blinked her eyes several times, wondering if she was just dreaming or not.

'Did he… did he just kiss me? For real?' Bianca asked herself in disbelief.

She closed her eyes the moment Clifford's lips started to move, gently brushing her lips. She just found herself being carried away by this passionate kiss.

It did not take long when Bianca responded to his kiss. They were now both kissing each other deeply. It lasted for a minute before Clifford drew back. The two of them were panting heavily.

Bianca was still in a state of shock, tracing her lips using her fingers while giving Clifford a questioning gaze.

"W-Why… why did you do that?" Bianca asked Clifford.

Clifford met her gaze, unable to give her an answer. He didn't know what to say either.

"Did you eat your chocolates?" He asked her absentmindedly.

Bianca looked at him with confusion. Instead of answering her question, he asked her something unrelated.

'Is he trying to divert the topic…'

"Yes, I did. Why?"

Clifford's lips curled upward before saying, "No wonder… you taste so sweet."

After saying that, Clifford fled away by leaving the room.

Bianca: "..."

'What the hell is that? Did he just escape from me?'

At Sy Corp…

Alveena and Andrew just finished eating their snacks when they came back to Alveena's office. Andrew was still working there as Alveena's personal assistant.

"Drew, darling… Can I ask you something?" Alveena pulled Andrew toward the couch.

"Hmm, what is it, Alvee?" Andrew wrapped his arm around Alveena's shoulder, pulling her closer to him.

"It's about my brother… I am wondering if he is already falling for Bianca. What do you think? You are a man as well, maybe you could understand his way of thinking."

Andrew let out a soft chuckle. It seemed that his woman wanted to play cupid for both Clifford and Bianca.

"Why did you suddenly ask?" Andrew wanted to know Alveena's thoughts first before answering her question.

"Well. I just noticed that my brother is very concerned about Bianca lately. Dexter told me that he even enrolled in a training class for fist to fist combat and self-defense."

"Really… Did he do that? But why?" Andrew asked Alveena, intrigued.

"Dexter said nothing. He had no idea as well. But I believe Bianca has something to do with it… See… My brother even took a one-week vacation leave just to take care of Bianca. Do you think my brother already likes Bianca or he is just doing this because he still feels guilty for what happened?"

Andrew fell silent for a moment, analyzing the situation. Alveena was waiting for his response.

"Hmm, it's hard to tell. Why don't you ask your brother directly?"

Alveena pouted her lips upon hearing that. "Sigh! My brother will just deny it! He will not tell me anything!"

"Ahem, Alvee. Just let them be. They are already adults. Let them discover their feelings for each other. Hmm just focus on me, Darling!"

Andrew began kissing Alveena's jawline and her neck.

"Andrew, not here. I didn't lock the door." Alveena complained, pinching Andrew's hips.

"Ahem. Just let me kiss you then I will stop." Andrew said, pinning her down on the couch before sealing her lips.

Alveena could no longer complain as Andrew already claimed her lips, attacking her aggressively.
