Brandon's and Yuri's first date went smoothly. So far there was progress and developnt of their relationship as they both discovered that they were attracted to each other physically.
It was a good sign as their feelings for each other might develop into love as ti went by. It may grow deeper as long as they try to work it out.
anwhile, there was also a man who was unknowingly making the moves on a certain soone whom he hated before for beating him up.
Clifford Sy tried his best to finish all his work early today so that he could leave the company before 6:00 pm. He needed to be on ti to visit his so-called girlfriend whom he just called Sweetheart this morning.
Bianca was clueless that the culprit for the sudden visit of her parents was none other than Clifford himself.
He was the one who texted Bianca's mother, asking her if she would visit her daughter again. He told her he would be glad to et Bianca's father as well.
He thought if Bianca's mother and her father would visit today, they would ask Bianca to introduce her 'boyfriend' to her father. With this, he would have reason to see her.
And just like that, his plan worked. Bianca's parents were coming over to et him. He would get to see Bianca and his day would now be complete.
Dexter, his assistant, was truly puzzled by Clifford's odd behavior today. He seed to be a different person from the CEO he knew. But he could see that this change was for the good.
He felt reassured that his Boss would keep on smiling from now on. He watched him shatter in the past. He saw how he suffered so much with his past relationship.
And now, he was happy that Clifford was coming out of his cave where he shut himself before.
"Dexter, I've finished counterchecking all the docunts. I already signed everything that needed my approval. Did I forget anything? Do we have more things to settle?" Clifford asked Dexter while looking at the clock hanging on the wall.
"We have none, Boss. Everything has been taken care of for today," Dexter promptly responded.
Clifford imdiately stood up when he heard that. "Alright then. I guess I am free to go, am I right?" He started wrapping up, turning off his laptop, and arranging the things on his table.
Dexter blinked several tis just observing Clifford. He also glanced at the wall clock. It was only 5:00 pm but Clifford was already preparing to leave the office.
In the past, Clifford was the one who was last to leave the building even if all the employees had already gone ho. That's how workaholic he was. But now he was in a hurry to leave the office.
Since he was the CEO, there was no problem with that. Besides, he already finished all his tasks for today.
"Yes, Sir. You can leave at any ti," Dexter said, smiling awkwardly.
Clifford nodded his head before grabbing his coat. He imdiately left the office in a hurry. While he was passing through the corridor, he picked up his phone and dialed Bianca's number.
Her phone rang several tis before Bianca was able to answer it. She was cooking so food for their dinner tonight.
"What took you so long to answer?" Clifford asked her.
"I'm cooking," she simply responded.
"What?! Who told you to cook? You are not allowed to move around and do heavy chores. Your wound might open up. Stop cooking. I'm gonna order food for our dinner and have them delivered there!" Clifford said spontaneously. He sounded unhappy as he slightly scolded Bianca. He was worried about her, that's why he didn't want her to do house chores.
On the other hand, Bianca was rendered speechless on the other line. She felt like her boyfriend just nagged at her.
'He sounds like my real boyfriend, worrying about …' Bianca thought to herself, biting her lips and at the sa ti, swooning.
"Hey, make sure that you turn off the stove. I don't want to see you standing in your kitchen once I arrive. Understand?" Clifford had spoken again, snapping Bianca out of her deep stupor.
Subconsciously, Bianca imdiately strode to the kitchen, obeying Clifford's words.
"I'm done. I stopped cooking." Bianca inford him.
"Good! Now, wait for . I will just buy our food. I'm on my way now. Just stay in your living room." He reminded her before hanging up the phone.
Bianca just stared at her phone blankly, still couldn't believe the weird interaction between them. She felt like they were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship for real.
Then she noticed the ti on her phone screen, it was only 5:05 pm but Clifford said he was on the way now even though she told him to co by 6:00 pm.
"Eh, did he leave the office early because of our dinner with my parents?" Bianca covered her mouth in disbelief.
"What's happening with Clifford Sy lately?" She asked herself.
She was still figuring out Clifford's strange behavior when she heard the sound of her doorbell. She assud that her parents had finally arrived.
She traced her steps towards the door and opened it. She was greeted by her mother and his father who were both smiling at her brightly.
"Mom, Dad, you are here!" She moved closer to them, giving a peck on their cheeks.
"Yes, of course! Your Dad is so excited to et your boyfriend," Her mother responded, giggling.
Bianca could only smile sheepishly. She felt guilty for lying to them. But she had no choice.
She let her parents in, entertaining them while waiting for Clifford. Twenty minutes later, they heard another sound of the doorbell.
'It must be Clifford!'
Bianca stood up to open the door. But her mom also followed her as she was excited to see Clifford again.
Upon opening the door, Bianca saw Clifford, looking gorgeous in his corporate suit.
Clifford smiled at them when he saw Bianca together with her mother. After greeting her mother, Clifford moved closer to Bianca and kissed her on her cheek. Not yet satisfied, he even hugged her, making Bianca freeze in her spot.
"Sweetheart, Sorry I'm late. I was supposed to arrive first before your Mom and Dad. But because of the traffic jam, I got delayed."
Bianca:"..."
