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

~ Chou Hospital ~

Today was Bianca's last day of stay in the hospital. She would be discharged. Clifford was the one processing the requirements, paying the bills.

Andrew and Alveena were currently at the Sy Mansion to tell the Sy Family about the good news. But since Clifford already heard the news, he chose to be with Bianca today.

Bianca still felt awkward around Clifford. They hadn't talked about the kiss that happened a few days ago in her ward. No one between them dared to mention it.

Bianca was inside her VIP ward, waiting for Clifford to arrive. He just went to the Billing Counter.

She had lost count of how many times she sighed today. She didn't know if she was sad or happy since she was finally leaving the hospital.

Getting discharged also meant Clifford would no longer stay by her side, taking care of her. Maybe she somehow felt sad about it because she was already used to his presence and his thoughtful acts whenever he would take care of her.

"Aah! What am I thinking?" Bianca shook her head, pushing the thought to the back of her mind.

"I should not expect more from him. It was just a kiss… yeah, just one kiss! Besides, we already kissed twice. Not a big deal anymore." Bianca was talking to herself. She wanted to convince herself not to be affected by the kiss.

But she couldn't get it out of her mind. She kept thinking about it.

"Sigh. I need to focus. Clifford Sy is not the man for me. He is out of my league." She took another deep sigh, feeling disheartened.

It did not take long when Clifford came back, entering the ward. Bianca tossed a look in his direction and their eyes met. Clifford flashed his dazzling smile as he stared back at her. For some unknown reason, her heart jumped inside her chest.

'Gosh, why am I feeling nervous? And why the hell Clifford is becoming more gorgeous in my eyes.' Bianca looked away, biting down on her lower lip.

"Are you ready?" Clifford's deep voice was heard. He was now approaching her.

He was just wearing casual clothes today– a blue shirt and denim jeans. He had the kind of aura that could attract women from just one look.

Strangely, he was no longer wearing his dark and cold expression lately. He was also smiling from time to time. He became more gentle and warm as compared to his cold and indifferent self.

"Y-Yes…" she stammered a little as she was overwhelmed by Clifford's cool and attractive look today.

'Gosh! How can I avoid this irresistible charm that he has?' Bianca couldn't stop herself from moving her gaze back to Clifford.

It was hard for her to look away. It seemed that her eyes were being pulled toward him. Her gaze was glued on him.

"Hmm, shall we go?" Clifford extended his arm to Bianca.

Bianca just looked at him before moving her gaze to his hand. 'Eh, what is this? Is he asking me to hold his hand? I can walk just fine. I don't need his support.'

Since Bianca didn't move, Clifford was the one who took her hand as he gently pulled her up going out of the ward.

Bianca couldn't complain anymore as she just let herself be pulled by Clifford. Her eyes were staring at their entangled hands. Subconsciously, her face became scarlet red as she couldn't stop herself from blushing.

Upon reaching the parking lot, Clifford opened the car door for her, showing his gentleman-like behavior. Bianca could only smile while thanking him.

Clifford drove her home. It was already lunchtime so they just bought food via drive-thru. The two of them took their lunch in Bianca's apartment. While eating, Clifford engaged her in a conversation.

"How do you feel that you are finally out of the hospital?"

Bianca stopped for a moment as she glanced at him. The two of them were sitting on the opposite sides of the table while facing each other.

"I feel relieved… but I might also miss the hospital…" Bianca responded meaningfully. She meant missing Clifford, not the hospital itself.

On the other hand, Clifford let out a husky laugh. "I thought you hate hospital. Why are you telling me now that you will miss it?"

"Hmm, I will miss staying in that VIP ward. As you can see, it is as spacious as my apartment. I will also miss the cute and charming male nurses who always check my vitals."

Clifford's smile disappeared upon hearing her last word. He arched his eyebrow and said, "What? I already asked the management to only allow female nurses in your ward! They continued sending male nurses?"

Bianca blinked her eyes several times just looking at him. She was at a loss for words because of that revelation. So it was Clifford's request that the male nurses stopped coming to her ward.

"So, it was you?... the one who forbade the male nurses to come in my room?" Bianca asked his confirmation while looking at him with disbelief.

"Cough! Cough!" Clifford cleared his throat, looking away.

It was a slip of the tongue. He had no intention of telling Bianca about that. Now, it was too late to take back his words. He already spilled the beans accidentally.

'Damn, Clifford. You are so dumb!' He scolded himself inwardly.

"Here, just continued eating. It's bad to talk during meals. Eat first." Clifford tried to dodge a bullet by stopping the conversation.

Bianca just eyed Clifford suspiciously. She was wondering why Clifford had to do it. Did he have biases and grudges with the male nurses?

"Hmmph! You are bad." Bianca murmured, pouting her lips.

"Me, Bad? Why?"

"You took my opportunity to be taking care of by those charming nurses!" She complained.

Clifford tried his best to calm himself but failed.

"Do you like flirting with them?! And what about me? Am I not enough? I also took care of you. Are those male nurses more charming than me?!!"

Bianca: "..."
