Chapter 583 - Surprise

Bam!

A loud thud was heard as Clifford fell on the floor after Bianca punched him in the face. Yes, she punched the already drunk Clifford, making him pass out.

She acted on impulse since she was utterly shocked when their lips touched each other. 

She covered her lips using her hands as she watched Clifford on the floor. She couldn't believe that the two of them had shared an accidental kiss.

Though this was not her first kiss, still she was quite shaken. 

'Damn! I just kissed this arrogant CEO,' Bianca mumbled to herself, her heart pounding so fast.

After a while, she gasped when she realized what she had done.

"Oh my god! I punched him so hard!"

Bianca immediately approached Clifford who was lying unconscious on the floor. She lifted him back to the sofa.

She chewed on her lower lip upon noticing the red mark on his jaw. It would surely become a bruise tomorrow.

"I hope he will not remember that I punched him or he might file another complaint against me."

Bianca disregarded those thoughts right away.

"But I saved his a.s.s, so I guess he will not file a complaint just because of one punch. Besides, he would have received more punches if I hadn't helped him tonight."

Then Bianca's lips curled as she remembered her recordings. "I can also threaten him just in case using the video. Haha. I am safe from his wrath for now."

Who would have thought that Clifford would also be a victim of his own trick? Just like what he did to Zhen-Zhen, Bianca recorded an embarrassing video of a drunken mighty CEO calling her his master.

The next morning Clifford woke up with a throbbing headache. He felt like his hangover was killing him.

He sat up, massaging his temples. When he looked around he noticed that he was not in his room.

Then the memories of last night kept flashing on his mind. He remembered that he went to a nightclub, drowning himself with alcohol as he hoped to erase the pain in his heart.

He felt horrible after his confrontation with Zhen-Zhen. He was very affected by her. He didn't know what to do to redeem himself and receive forgiveness from her.

Clifford was in the middle of remembering yesterday's incident when someone came to greet him.

"Good morning, Mr. Sy!" Bianca's bubbly voice was heard.

Clifford's eyes widened in disbelief after seeing the woman whom he hated. Then he realized that this woman was the one who helped him last night from getting beaten by those street thugs.

Before Clifford could speak up, Bianca had spoken again.

"No need to thank me. Just pay me for my one-night service and accommodation, plus the amount of my groceries that I left last night because of helping you."

Clifford: "..."

Bianca handed a piece of paper over to Clifford. On that piece of paper, she wrote the total amount of groceries, the rate for one-night accommodation in her apartment, the rate for her service as a guard who saved him, and the payment for babysitting a drunkard.

Clifford was at a loss for words while reading what was written on the piece of paper. He moved his gaze back and forth between Bianca and the paper on his hand.

'What?! Is she serious, giving me this entire bill?'

"Oops, you should not complain to me. I told you to compensate me for this hassle! You said, Sure thing, Master! Imagine! You even called me Master!" Bianca added making Clifford speechless, unable to react as he couldn't believe the shamelessness of this girl.

~ At City of Cyrus ~

Meanwhile, Alveena and Andrew also heard the news of what happened between their two brothers.

Alveena woke up early. She saw the video on her phone after she browsed some current news from the internet.

Alveena slept in Andrew's room last night. They were still lying on the bed. Andrew woke up upon hearing the sound coming out of Alveena's phone. It turned out she was watching a video.

He pulled her closer and took a peek, only to see his brother, Tristan beating Alveena's brother, Clifford.

"Huh? What happened between those two?" Andrew mumbled.

Alveena rubbed the space between her eyebrows.

"I guess my brother had done something again that provoked your brother to do this," said Alveena, sighing deeply.

"Argh! My brother created another trouble for your brother. I'm sorry," Alveena added, apologizing to Andrew.

Andrew let out a soft chuckle before pinching her nose.

"You silly woman. You are not at fault here. Why are you apologizing to me?"

"I'm so ashamed because my brother is so stubborn that he keeps on making trouble for your brother because of his revenge. I wonder if the two will still reconcile or not."

"Don't worry. I think time will decide. Besides, clearing the conflict between them is not entirely impossible. They will still reconcile just like what happened to me and my brother. They just need time to accept everything, forgive and forget!" Andrew reassured her.

They spent lots of sweet moments and quality time behind their colleagues' backs. 

They had been staying and sleeping together in one room, either her room or Andrew's room. They would always make love at night, expressing their feelings towards each other.

They felt like dreaming. They were so happy as if they had no troubles at all. Every second they spent with each other was so precious.

"You want to take a bath together?" Andrew asked Alveena. Today was the last day of their conference.

"Hmm, naughty! I will just take shower in my room!" Alveena said, hitting Andrew's c.h.e.s.t.

"Are you returning to your room now?" Andrew asked her with a disappointed look on his face. He was reluctant to let her go.

"Can you stay longer?" He added.

Alveena giggled, showing him the time on her phone. It was already 6:35 am.  Alveena and Andrew were usually waking up by 5:00 am to return to their respective room.

They woke up late because they stayed up all night, making the most out of their time together.

"I have to leave now. We still have one night left to bond tonight." 

After saying that, Alveena kissed Andrew on his lips before getting up from the bed. Andrew also stood up as he put on his clothes. 

"Let me accompany you back to your room," Andrew said, putting on a pitiful face.

Alveena giggled again before hugging him.

"Okay."

After fixing themselves, Alveena and Andrew walked out of his bed with their entangled hands.

They were now about to leave Andrew's room. They didn't expect that the moment they opened the door, they would be surprised by someone.

Andrew was the one who opened the door from the inside. Alveena was standing behind him, holding his other hand.

Someone was already standing outside his door. She was about to knock and ring the bell when suddenly the door opened.

"Hannah…" 

"Andrew!"
