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

Andrew didn't know what to do when morning came. Alveena was still in his arms. She was hugging him tightly. He knew he couldn't avoid that 'kissing' topic forever.

He was now being problematic on how he would deal with this concern. The right thing to do was, to be honest with her but he didn't know how he would bring this up.

He couldn't say sorry after kissing her back last night. Alveena might feel offended if he would do that.

'Argh, can we just forget about it as if nothing happened?' Andrew told himself, only to shake his head right away. 

'Of course not, I don't think I can act as if nothing happened. Aah, why did I do that? I should have pretended to be asleep or dreaming!' Andrew started his morning with an internal battle inside his mind.

He had lost counts of how many times he sighed this morning. He wanted to scold himself because he was not supposed to feel something toward Alveena since he was still a committed guy.

However, he didn't know why but Alveena could affect him this much. Was it because they were always together for these past few weeks? Could it be he was used to her company now? Andrew couldn't figure out the exact reason. He was still confused.

He wanted to stay faithful to Hannah even though they were currently in a cool off. But he couldn't resist Alveena's charm as if he was slowly being drawn to her every passing day.

Andrew was still in deep thought when Alveena slightly moved. He gazed down only to see Alveena waking up. She finally let go of his body as she brought her hand on her face, rubbing her eyes to clear her vision.

Andrew pressed his palm on her forehead to check her temperature. He forgot to do it a while ago since his mind was occupied by a lot of things. Her temperature was back to normal. He felt relieved that her fever was gone.

"Good morning, Mr. Drunky Grumpy… What time is it? Are we late for work now?"

Andrew squinted his eyes at her upon hearing her words. He gently flicked her forehead using his finger.

"Aww! Why did you do that?" Alveena complained to Andrew, glaring her eyes at him.

"You got sick yesterday and couldn't even move your body last night! And now, you are thinking about going to work! Are you trying to get yourself killed by overworking?" Andrew nagged and scolded her.

"Do you think I am a cruel Boss who would let his assistant go to work after getting sick? I don't even know if you recover completely. You still look sick and weak," Andrew added, glancing at Alveena with disbelief.

She could only pout her lips while rubbing her forehead. 

"I just got used to coming to work every day, that's why I forgot," Alveena justified her words.

"Stay here and rest. Recover your health first. You don't have to go there. I will handle everything. We are going home anyway. I will attend the meeting tomorrow with the investors and make sure to resolve everything by that day."

Andrew was about to get up from the bed when Alveena stopped him.

"Where are you going?" Alveena asked, her eyes seemed like asking Andrew to stay.

"I'm going to call the front desk to deliver our breakfast here. I should also go back to my room to take a bath. I'm going to work after our breakfast," Andrew answered her in detail.

  But Alveena showed an expression of disapproval.

She tightened her grip on Andrew's arm and said, "Don't go. Just take a rest today too. You stay up all night. You only slept for a few hours. It's not enough." Her concern for him was reflected on her face.

"Do you want to get sick as well? How can you meet the investors if you will get sick? Then how can we go home if you will not be able to attend the meeting?" Now it was Alveena's turn to nag at Andrew.

He didn't want to argue with the sick lady so Andrew just nodded his head in agreement.

Alveena was satisfied with Andrew's response. She smiled and finally let go of his arm. The two of them were still lying on bed.

For some unknown reason, they didn't feel awkward now toward each other even though they were still sharing the bed, as they lay next to each other.

"Andrew… about last night…" Alveena decided to bring it up.

Andrew froze instantly when he heard those opening words from her. He knew it! Alveena would talk about it even if he would try to avoid this topic.

He suddenly felt uncomfortable, his mind in panic. 'What should I do? What should I tell her?'

Alveena took a deep breath before continuing. She just mustered up her courage to talk about this.

"Andrew… last night. I don't intend to wake you up. Don't get me wrong. I was not trying to take advantage of you while you were asleep. It's just that… I wanted to give you a 'thank you kiss' for taking care of me." Alveena spoke spontaneously, telling him her alibi. Her cheeks were already red from embarrassment.

"I don't know if you will believe me or not. But I swear I'm not trying rape you! It's just a kiss… on your lips. Yeah, I just want a kiss..."

Andrew: "..."

'Rape me? Is she for real?' 

"It's just that… you look very tempting that night! It's your fault… you touched my heart when you took care of me."

As expected to Alveena, her honesty, bluntness and frankness were part of her unique traits that made her stand out from others.

"But, let me ask you something. Why did you kiss me back last night?" Alveena could no longer hold herself from asking this question to Andrew.

She was really dying to know the reason why Andrew responded to her kiss. She wanted a confirmation from him that he also liked it and… he didn't regret it.

Deep down, she was hoping that Andrew also had feelings for her and that he was attracted to her or more than that.

Andrew was silent for a few moments, just staring at her with amusement. He was also observing her facial expression.

After contemplating, Andrew finally found his voice to answer her.

"Alveena, you are a girl and I am just a man. If you think that I look very tempting to you… then I would say… you look very addicting to me… so, how would you expect me not to respond to you last night?"

That was the most safest answer that came out naturally from his mouth. That was not a lie. That's how he truly felt that night.

He was just a man, not a saint. Andrew finally accepted the fact that he gave in to Alveena's charm. She's the only woman who broke his strong self-control. 

Of course, Hannah and Zhen-Zhen were different stories. Hannah was the woman he always desired and loved.

He had to admit that Zhen-Zhen was also the first woman who succeeded in seducing him. But it was because of her ethereal beauty and innocence.

And now, Alveena was another variable.
