BXBX NOVEL Chapter 546 Severing Ties With Him
Brandon could no longer keep his cool. Instead of staying away, Andrew kept on appearing in front of Alveena.
Brandon stepped up, facing Andrew with his stern and angry-looking expression.
"What is your problem, Mr. Davis? Why are you bothering, Alveena? Can't you just stay away from her and leave her alone?"
Both Alveena and Andrew were taken aback by Brandon's sudden outburst. He continued talking to Andrew.
"You are a committed man already. Why are you kissing someone else's fiancee? Are you cheating with your fiancee? I'm telling you now… STAY. AWAY. FROM. ALVEENA!"
Brandon clenched his fists so hard. His bloodshot eyes were looking dagger at Andrew.
Andrew looked calm outside, but deep inside he was also enraged. He didn't know if he was angry at Brandon or he was angry at himself.
He had to admit that Brandon's words were true. He already reminded himself many times to stay away from Alveena but he couldn't.
After hearing this from another person like Brandon, Andrew wanted to be stubborn. The more Brandon wanted him to stay away from Alveena the more Andrew wanted to do the opposite thing.
'I can't. I want to stick by her side!' Andrew's alter ego admitted to himself.
Alveena, on the other hand, became more anxious. She didn't want Brandon and Andrew to fight each other in front of her.
She could feel the heavy tension surrounding the two men. Though Andrew didn't say a word, Alveena could tell that he was also displeased by Brandon's statements.
"Brandon, lower your voice. Don't make a scene here," Alveena said, feeling helpless. She held Brandon's arm, afraid that he would suddenly punch Andrew.
She could tell that Brandon was furious right now. He already balled his hands into fists.
"Alvee, I'm not making a scene. I am just trying to remind this man that he has no right when it comes to you. He is a jerk! How can he touch you if he is already a committed man? Besides, you are mine!" Brandon reasoned out to Alveena.
Alveena couldn't believe Brandon. Who told him that she belonged to him? She was not a property or a thing that someone could own.
She wanted to argue with Brandon but she couldn't do it because Andrew was there, listening to them.
She already lied to him that she accepted the arranged marriage with Brandon. This lie gave Brandon the right to make Andrew believe that Alveena was now his woman.
'How long can I stand this? How long can I pretend? Should I just make my lie true?' Alveena was having conflicting thoughts right now.
She already made up her mind about staying away from Andrew. However, whenever Andrew would come to her, her resolve was wavering once more.
Meanwhile, after his long silence, Andrew had finally spoken, ignoring Brandon's words. His eyes lingered on Alveena's beautiful face.
"Alveena, can we talk?" He repeated his question.
Brandon shot him a cold sharp glare. He really wanted to punch Andrew right now. But Alveena was holding his arm.
"Miss Sy… there are things I wanna ask from you. This is about the spying thing you did to our company. I need some explanation."
Alveena was dumbfounded when she heard that. She could tell that Andrew already learned about her real background.
'Is he mad at me now? I knew it! This will happen. Now he is thinking that I spied on their company.' Alveena felt bothered by what Andrew was thinking about her now.
Indeed, she became her brother's spy but she didn't mean any harm to their company, Heavenly Star Enterprise. She tried her best to avoid reporting important details to her brother.
Seeing the serious expression of Andrew, Alveena had decided to confront him. For one last time, she would talk to him.
But she would not let her heart win over her mind. This time she would push Andrew away from her.
If this was the only way to forget him then she would be willing to take this path although it would be painful for her.
'I will not let myself be swayed by him once again,' Alveena thought to herself, feeling so determined.
"Okay, let's talk." Alveena blurted out after making up her mind.
"Alveena?!! Seriously?!" Brandon couldn't believe her.
"I prefer to talk to you… Alone." Andrew emphasized to Alveena.
"Brandon, please just go back inside and help your team. I will follow you after Mr. Davis and I are done talking," Alveena told Brandon with her pleading look.
Brandon could only sigh in defeat. Alveena was pleading again so he didn't have the heart to go against her pleading words.
"Alright! Just make it quick. Don't talk to him longer!"
After saying that, Brandon glared at Andrew one last time before walking back to the venue.
Andrew glanced at their surroundings. Someone who would come out of the venue would eventually see them there.
Trying to avoid people, Andrew grabbed Alveena's hand.
"Let's talk somewhere. Not here."
Alveena just nodded her head in agreement, following Andrew behind.
They ended up going to the beachfront. Andrew continued walking while holding Alveena's hand. They just stopped until they found a spot where there were no people passing by.
"You can let go of my hand now," Alveena mumbled, reminding Andrew that he was still holding her hand.
Andrew released her hand right away.
"Now, tell me the truth. Explain to me. Did you intentionally approach me and volunteer to be my assistant so that you could spy on our operations?"
"Were you the one who told your brother about our designs for the product showcasing?"
Alveena paused for a moment, contemplating what to say to Andrew. It looked like he was already convinced that Alveena just approached him to spy on their company's operation.
Alveena smiled bitterly at that thought. But thanks to that, she was able to find a perfect opportunity to sever her ties with Andrew.
With a mocking smile on her face, Alveena answered Andrew. "Yes! I did it. Since you already know, there's no point of denying it, Mr. Davis."
Andrew clenched his fists tightly after hearing those words from her.
