Chapter 532 - Sunshine Paradise Resort
Andrew reached the airport just five minutes before the boarding time. His colleagues got worried, thinking that he won't be able to make it on time.
If he missed his flight then he had to use the Davis Family private plane. This conference was very important to the company so Andrew should attend this no matter what.
Every finance director of the top companies in the country was attending this conference. Some of the sessions would tackle effective and best strategies when it came to managing the financial aspects of one company.
Aside from that, it would also serve as a showcase of the top-performing companies that were earning billions of dollars every year.
The conference would be held in the City of Cyrus. After the three hours of flight, they touched down at the Cyrus Airport.
The conference organizer also took care of their transportation from the airport going to the venue. It was a hotel resort near the beach.
The organizer of this conference made sure that every delegate would be comfortable with their accommodations so they chose the best Hotel Resort in the City~ The Sunshine Paradise Hotel Resort.
Andrew couldn't help but compare the Sunshine Paradise to Oceana Safe Haven Resort of Oceaniz City. He wanted to commend those two resorts.
The beautiful landscapes and the services provided by their staff made them stand out from other resorts in the country.
'Hmm, I think I can also do field research here that can help the Heavenly Star Paradise Resort become one of the top resorts in the whole country,' Andrew thought to himself.
Andrew and his team were guided to their respective rooms right away. This was day zero so there would be no activity yet aside from the social gathering at night.
They would allow the guests to roam around the resort and enjoy their stay before going all out with the conference.
Andrew decided to stay in his room and sleep. He needed to recover his strength. He felt tired because he didn't have enough sleep last night and Hannah exhausted him too much.
The moment his back touched the soft bed, Andrew drifted off to sleep almost immediately.
Meanwhile, Alveena's team arrived at the venue half an hour after Andrew's team arrived. Upon entering the guest receiving area, Alveena saw someone whom she didn't want to meet.
"Oh, finally! My future wife is here!"
Alveena glared at him with disbelief. 'Brandon Cullens?!! What the hell is he doing here? I don't think he is a financial director.'
Brandon just smiled at Alveena, approaching her. He was about to hug Alveena when she suddenly moved a step back, raising her hand to stop Brandon from getting closer to her.
"Hey, can't you give your future husband a hug?" Brandon shamelessly asked her.
Alveena just rolled her eyes skyward, ignoring Brandon's remarks.
On the other hand, Alveena's team just laughed because of Brandon's childish and happy-go-lucky attitude. They could see Alveena in him. He was like a boy version of Alveena.
Alveena's team decided to get their room keys at the front desk, leaving Brandon and Alveena alone. They wanted them to have their privacy.
They already heard the rumor about Alveena's and Brandon's engagement. The Sy and the Cullens families had agreed to unite their two families through the marriage between Alveena and Brandon.
Though they didn't announce it officially, the employees were already aware of this.
"What are you doing here? You are a CEO, right? This conference is for the Finance Director, not CEO."
Brandon just shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. "What's wrong with that? I was once a Finance Director even before I became the CEO."
"Besides, I heard that my future wife would be attending this conference so I decided to come personally," Brandon added, winking at Alveena.
"Stop calling me my future wife," Alveena mumbled, feeling annoyed.
"Alright. Don't get mad. I will stop calling you that. I will just call you MY WIFE. Oops! Don't complain anymore! I already erased the word FUTURE."
Alveena: "..."
Alveena had the urge to facepalm because of Brandon's persistence. It looked like he came here not because of the conference but because he wanted to annoy her.
But she had to admit that Brandon was able to help her ease up a little. Before coming here, she was very anxious. She had the feeling that she would see Andrew here since he was also a Finance Director.
After the talk they had in the restaurant's parking lot, Alveena didn't know how to face him again. Did Andrew really give her the closure that she needed?
She was also worried about how Andrew would react once he found out her true identity. She was connected to the Sy Corp~ the competitor of the Heavenly Star Enterprise.
Would Andrew hate her? Would he misunderstand her, thinking that she intentionally approached him to spy on him, to spy on the Heavenly Star Enterprise?
Alveena turned to Brandon with a serious expression on her beautiful face.
"Brandon, we are here to attend the conference. Stop messing and playing around with me. Please act professionally, okay? Remember, you are the CEO of your company. Don't ruin your image in the public. So stop pestering me. Are we clear?"
Alveena was like a grandmother giving Brandon a piece of advice for his own sake. Brandon just continued smiling at her.
He bobbed his head and said, "Yes, my dear wife. I will do that. I will not ruin my image for the sake of my wife. I have to take care of it so that you can be proud of me."
Alveena: "..."
She felt like she was having a headache just talking to Brandon. She just waved her hand before walking away. She just wanted to rest and have a peaceful moment inside her room.
She joined her colleagues who were talking to the staff at the front desk. She also got her room number and keys.
She felt relieved when Brandon stopped bothering her. He disappeared because his colleagues called him. If not, he would continue following Alveena until she reached her room.
Upon entering her room, Alveena went straight into her bed. She wanted to rest and sleep. She stayed up all night just thinking about meeting Andrew at this conference. She couldn't sleep and now she was too tired and sleepy.
She lazily slumped her body on the bed, closing her eyes right away. Her bed was so wide since it was a king-sized bed.
She didn't notice that there was another figure who was sound asleep on the corner side of her bed.
