Chapter 687 - Change Of Assignment
Clifford just ignored Bianca's teasing. He didn't care about the people who were staring at them right now.
He just glared at Bianca. With his authoritative voice, he said, "I thought you were hungry. Choose and order your food now."
Bianca pouted her lips because Clifford was being strict again. "Yes, Boss! I'm ordering now."
"Ahem, this is your treat, right?" Bianca added, flashing her charming smile.
Clifford just sighed helplessly before massaging his temples. "Yes, just order now so that you can eat!"
Bianca's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands upon hearing that. At least, she managed to let her Boss treat her with breakfast this morning.
'Hehe, CEO Sy, just be good to me. Have you forgotten that you called me Master before. I wonder how he would react once I reminded him of how he acted when he was drunk.' Bianca smiled inwardly at that thought.
After ordering food in the cafeteria, Clifford noticed that the other employees kept on staring at them as if they were famous celebrities.
'What is this fuss all about?' Clifford thought to himself with a frown.
"I think you should eat in my office," Clifford suggested.
Bianca shook her head, giving him a pleading look.
"I'm already hungry. Let's just eat here."
After saying that, Bianca pulled Clifford towards the vacant table in the corner. The employees gasped once again seeing how Bianca was treating Clifford.
"Oh my gosh, did you see that? Our CEO is being pulled by that girl as if he is being forced to stay with her."
"Whoa, I wanna talk to that girl and ask her tips on how she could do that to our cold and aloof CEO!"
The employees kept talking about them when suddenly their attention was diverted when Alveena and Andrew entered the Cafeteria. The presence of Andrew Davis in the Sy Corp was still a mystery.
They started to speculate things since there was no official announcement yet about his relationship with Alveena Sy.
Andrew was very caring and attentive towards Alveena. They could see that the two were acting sweet to each other.
After ordering their own food, Bianca noticed her brother, Clifford, sitting at the corner table together with someone. Alveena asked Andrew to join her brother at his table. It was very rare to see her brother eating in the Cafeteria.
Upon reaching their table, Alveena and Andrew were surprised to see Bianca.
"Bianca? What are you doing here?" Both of them asked her in unison.
Since Bianca was still chewing her food, she couldn't answer them. Clifford chose to speak on her behalf.
"She will be working for us temporarily," Clifford simply answered, signaling Bianca to continue eating.
Alveena smiled widely after hearing us. "Can we join you here, brother?"
Clifford just nodded his head in agreement. Andrew sat down beside Clifford while Alveena sat down next to Alveena.
"Hi Alvee… Mr. Davis!" Bianca paused for a moment to greet the couple.
"Just call me Andrew, Bianca. Don't be too formal!" Andrew said.
"Okay, Andrew!" She responded cheerfully.
"How's your date with Brandon?!" Alveena asked Bianca excitedly which made Clifford crumple his face.
'Here we go again, two girls love to gossip.' Clifford rolled his eyes.
He didn't want to hear any more about what happened during their date. He already assumed that Bianca and Brandon slept together.
Meanwhile, Bianca gave Alveena an awkward smile as she recalled Brandon's proposal. She was also aware that he was doing it for Alveena's sake. She was the girl he liked after all.
"Everything went smoothly," Bianca plainly said, not elaborating further.
"Oh? You and Brandon are dating?" Andrew asked her in amusement.
"It's just a blind date!" Alveena answered him on Bianca's behalf.
Andrew chuckled as he couldn't believe that this fierce lady, Bianca would go on a blind date.
"Hey, are you looking for a boyfriend? I should have introduced you to my cousins. They are pretty interested in you!" Andrew suddenly blurted out as he remembered the twins, Jake and Blake.
"Cough! Cough!" Bianca choked on her food while Clifford continued frowning in his seat, just listening to them.
"It's alright, Andrew! Don't bother. My mom just forced me to do it," Bianca said, heaving a frustrated sigh.
"Bianca will be your bodyguard, Alveena. She's the one I was talking about yesterday," Clifford spoke up to change the topic.
Andrew was confused when he heard that.
"Bodyguard for Alveena? But why? Is there something wrong?" Andrew asked them.
"It's for her safety. Yesterday, I noticed that there were men following us," Clifford informed Andrew.
Andrew became worried when he heard that.
"Why didn't you tell me about it?" Andrew asked Alveena, looking so serious.
"I'm sorry. I forgot…" Alveena said, smiling sheepishly.
'I had no time to tell you since we were busy making love. You exhausted me last night…' Alveena added to her thoughts.
"I'll stick by your side. I will protect you so don't worry about it…" Andrew said, reassuring Clifford and Alveena.
Then an idea popped up in Alveena's mind.
"Brother, since I will be together with Andrew starting today… Why don't you assign Bianca as your bodyguard? Besides, we are not certain whether I am their target or it is you!" Alveena suggested to them.
"What do you think about it, Bianca?"
Bianca was not able to respond right away. She was just looking at Alveena who was smiling at her. She felt like Alveena was up to something.
"Yes, I agree… Besides, Alveena will be going home with me starting today. She will stay in my place in the meantime." Andrew supported Alveena's suggestion.
Bianca could only smile awkwardly. She had no say about this as Clifford was the one who hired her so the decision would be coming from him.
Bianca glanced at Clifford, waiting for his response.
"Boss, what do you say about this?" Bianca asked him.
Clifford glanced at Bianca with his indescribable expression. After a few seconds, he gave them his answer.
"Alright, Bianca, you will be my bodyguard."
Alveena smiled triumphantly when she heard that.
