The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter-Chapter 864 Bianca & Clifford VII

~ At Country F ~

Clifford was currently in the hospital, watching over Olive. The reason he was not able to contact Bianca for the past two days was that Clifford was taking care of Olive and at the same time, he was doing his work. In short, he was multitasking.

On the second day of his stay in Country F, he met Olive during the dinner gathering. Olive immediately approached him. Since he had already forgiven her, Clifford was no longer avoiding Olive.

This action of his created another wrong assumption in Olive's mind. She thought Clifford was slowly opening his heart to her once again.

? The two had a few drinks in that social gathering. Clifford, who was being a gentleman, sent Olive to her hotel room, not knowing that Olive hired someone to take their photos secretly.

She tried to kiss Clifford but he avoided her. That was the time Olive confessed her feelings to Clifford, telling him that she wanted him back.

Clifford refused to accept her love but Olive cried, not letting him go. Then she collapsed. Clifford brought her to the hospital. That's when he found out about Olive's illness. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Olive had become part of his life. He loved her once. So hearing that kind of bad news shook him. The doctor said Olive was dying… She only had a few months left to live.

And with her situation, Olive asked Clifford a favor. Olive and Clifford were now talking to each other inside her private ward.

"You heard my current condition, Cliff. I'm dying Cliff. Please… can you grant me my one last wish? Can you stay by my side until my last breath? Can you be my man just like old times?" Olive held Clifford's hands, looking at him with her pleading eyes.

Clifford remained silent as he didn't know what to say. He was having conflicting thoughts right now.

"Please Cliff… this is the only request I want you to fulfill before I die. You can go back to Bianca once I'm gone. If you want, I will also ask her… beg her. Just please, be my boyfriend again, Cliff. Call me crazy or shameless… but it's you whom I want to be with before I die."

"Olive… I–"

Olive pressed her forefinger against his lips to stop him from speaking. She felt like he was going to reject her so she chose to stop him.

"You can think it over, Cliff. You can discuss this with Bianca. I also informed her about my situation. I kneeled and begged her…"

"What?! Did you do that?!" This time Clifford finally found his voice to speak up.

They were in the middle of their conversation when the door suddenly swung open. Dexter entered the room with so much urgency.

"Boss! We have a problem!" Dexter mumbled anxiously, showing his phone to Clifford. Dexter had been scolded so many times by Alveena. So he had no choice but to interrupt Olive and Clifford.

"Lady Alveena…" Dexter mumbled nervously, sweating a lot.

Clifford was about to ask him what was going on when suddenly Alveena's voice was heard from the other line. Dexter had already put the phone on loudspeaker mode as per Alveena's instruction.

"YOU Foolish Man! Get your ass back here now! Otherwise, you will lose Bianca! How dare you make her cry! I will disown you as my brother if you dare hurt her feelings, you Dumbo!" Alveena spoke spontaneously, loud and clear.

But Clifford didn't absorb everything she said as his attention was caught by the words 'You make her cry!'

'Bianca? She cried…'

At that certain moment, all Clifford wanted to do was to fly and see Bianca.

"Dexter! Get me a ticket now, going back to the City of Empire!" Clifford ordered his assistant with his authoritative and demanding tone.

Dexter could only bob his head, turning around to obey his boss' command. Clifford was about to follow him and leave the room when Olive held his elbow, stopping him.

"Cliff, please… don't leave me here. I need you." Olive's tears began to fall once again as she tightened her grip on Clifford's arm. She was afraid to let go.

"Please, Cliff… stay with me. Don't leave me." Olive repeated these words several times while crying.

Clifford's heart constricted seeing her cry like this. But he was more concerned about Bianca. He couldn't do Olive's request. It would be unfair to Bianca. And besides, he didn't want to give Olive false hope. Pretending to be in love with her and become her man would not make her feel happy. This was so wrong… this whole idea!

Putting his hand over hers, Clifford stared into her eyes. He slowly removed her hands from his arm while saying, "I'm sorry, Olive. I don't want to pretend nor deceive both of us. I can't be with you. I have a girlfriend, the woman I love… that's where I belong… I'm only hers."

"Please understand, Olive. I can be with you as your friend… but not as your man…"

Olive knew that she was fighting a losing battle. She just couldn't accept the fact that Clifford was no longer hers.

Clifford let go of her hands and turned around. But he made sure to call Olive's nurse before leaving the room. He had no reason to stay there. He had to go back and talk to Bianca.

As he was running in the corridor, he dialed Bianca's phone number. It rang several times before he heard the beeping sound. Bianca was not answering the phone. She was canceling it.

"Bianca, please… answer the phone…" Clifford had a bad feeling about this.

It did not take long when he reached the parking lot. Dexter was already there waiting for him.

"Sir…"

Clifford just raised his eyebrow before stepping into the car.

"Mhmm, Your sister wants me to relay another message. She already hung up the phone."

"What did she say?"

"Uhm… prepare yourself for being a punching bag…"

Clifford crumpled his face upon hearing that. There were only two meanings for that… it was either Alveena would beat him up or it would be Bianca.

"Dex… I guess… we should drop by the Jewelry store first…" Clifford said, rubbing his temples.
