Chapter 853 Yuri & Brandon II

Brandon stayed in Yuri's office for an hour just talking about Dr. Smith. He was curious about that doctor. He wanted to know if he was a potential love rival when it came to Yuri.

"Yu, my Darling, where and how did you meet that doctor?" Brandon asked Yuri expectantly. He was looking at her with eyes filled with interest.

"I met Dr. Richard Smith abroad. We were in the same class when I was pursuing my studies. He is also a heart surgeon." Yuri answered him while arranging the flowers in her vase.

She loved Brandon's romantic side. He was always giving her a bouquet of different flowers whenever he would visit her.

Because Yuri was so focused on the flowers, she failed to see the deep frown on Brandon's face.

'They were classmates abroad. Are they close? Don't tell me that doctor has a crush on Yuri. What is he doing here in our country?' Brandon asked himself with his crumpled face.

"Was he your suitor before?" Brandon simply asked her, not looking into her eyes. He didn't want her to see his expression.

Yuri, who was arranging the flowers, paused for a moment when she heard his last question. She turned around with an amused look in her eyes.

"What if I said yes, would you get jealous?" Yuri asked him, fighting the urge to smile.

"Of course not! I have no reason to get jealous. Besides, I'm your boyfriend now! He is just your classmate and former suitor!" Brandon denied it blatantly.

Yuri just let out a soft giggle, looking at him teasingly.

"Hmm, why are you giving me that kind of look, Dr. Chou?" Brandon raised his eyebrow as he stood up, approaching Yuri. He immediately grabbed her by her waist, trapping her in her desk.

"Nothing. I'm just smiling. Am I not allowed to smile?"

Brandon leaned closer to her, his face almost touching hers. He looked like he was about to kiss her on her lips.

But they were interrupted by the loud knock outside her office door. Brandon cursed inwardly while Yuri gently pushed him away from her body, looking at the closed door.

Brandon distanced himself from Yuri and went back to his seat. He was annoyed at the person who disrupted their moment.

"Come in," Yuri said, touching her blushing face. She really thought Brandon would kiss her if not for the person who knocked on the door.

Brandon's expression darkened further when he saw the person's face. It was Dr. Smith.

"Yuri, our conference is about to start. We have to prepare for our presentation." Dr Smith ignored Brandon's presence. He was just looking at Yuri.

"Ok, Richard. I'm coming. Wait for me backstage in the conference room." Yuri said, smiling faintly at him. Dr. Smith just nodded his head before leaving her office.

"Do you want to watch and listen to our presentation? Are you free?" Yuri invited Brandon.

Brandon's face brightened up because of Yuri's invitation. "Really? Can I join you?"

"Yes, I will arrange a seat for you."

Brandon bobbed his head frantically. He had a broad smile on his face.

"I will ask the staff to guide you. You don't have to listen all throughout the conference. If you want to leave, just text me, okay?" Yuri was worried that Brandon wouldn't like the topic and he would only get bored.

"Don't worry about me. I will definitely listen to you attentively!" Brandon said excitedly, reassuring Yuri.

"Okay. Let's go!"

The couple left Yuri's office as they headed to the conference room. Upon reaching the conference room, Yuri and Brandon went separate ways. The Staff guided Brandon in the center front row where he could see Yuri on the stage up-close.

The other doctors– Department Heads, Resident Chiefs, Resident doctors, and interns were present.

Brandon could see Yuri talking to Dr. Smith. They looked very professional. It did not take long when the conference started. The two doctors were the speakers for today's conference.

The younger doctors, resident doctors, and interns couldn't help but admire Yuri and Dr. Smith. They were both intelligent and good-looking. Those who didn't know that Yuri had a boyfriend were shipping the two doctors together.

Since Brandon and Yuri were in a trial relationship, they didn't disclose nor announce their relationship to other people. They maintained a low profile and were private about their relationship.

"Dr. Chou and Dr. Smith will become a nice couple. Their teamwork is superb! They are both excellent in this field," one of the doctors sitting behind Brandon talked about the two doctors who were presenting in the front.

"Yes, I agree. I can see a bright future with them. If ever they both end up being together, their children might follow in their footsteps. They can be gifted, having above-average IQ!" Another doctor shared her opinion.

"I heard they came from the same school. Hmm, they have chemistry. I could see the spark in their eyes whenever they would talk and smile at each other!"

"Both of them are the best heart surgeons in our country. I'm so proud of them. I hope they can take care of each other's hearts as well… just like how they care about their patient's heart."

Their voices were loud enough for Brandon to hear. His ear already heated up from listening to their conversation. Unable to control himself, Brandon turned around and scolded the three doctors.

"Can't you see that my Darling is presenting in front? Stop talking. You are distracting the other listeners!"

The three doctors suddenly stopped talking, looking at Brandon with puzzled expressions.

'Did we hear it right? He said Darling? Is he referring to Dr. Yuri? Is he Dr. Yuri's boyfriend?'

The three doctors exchanged glances at one another, still trying to figure out Brandon's identity. Among the participants inside the conference room, only Brandon was not wearing a doctor's gown.

Meanwhile, seeing the disbelief in their eyes, Brandon picked up his phone and showed them his wallpaper. It was a photo of Yuri and him!

The three doctors were rendered speechless upon seeing the sweet photo of the couple. The man in front of them was indeed Yuri's boyfriend.
