Chapter 771 Let's Hang Out Tonight!



"Are you done?" Clifford asked Bianca, feeling a little bit impatient.

He didn\'t know what took her so long to finish. He already reminded her to be careful and not to soak her wound with water.

Not getting a response from her, Clifford suddenly barged into the bathroom to check on her.

"Aaah! Don\'t look!" Bianca screamed at the sudden entrance of Clifford. She was not yet done putting some clothes on.

She was watching her wound stitches on the mirror when Clifford came in. Her upper body was a little bit exposed to him.

Clifford automatically turned around to avoid looking at her but he could no longer unseen what he had seen.

Bianca\'s face was crimson red. She was so embarrassed and annoyed with Clifford. Who would have thought that he would barge into the bathroom without her consent?

"Hey, what do you think you are doing? Taking advantage of this patient. Do you want me to beat you up!" Bianca started to nag at him.

Clifford couldn\'t refute that. He was partly at fault here.

"I\'m sorry. I didn\'t mean to. I just got worried since you didn\'t respond to me." Clifford justified his action, his back still facing Bianca.

Bianca already fixed her patient\'s gown and glanced in his direction helplessly.

\'I don\'t need to get mad. It\'s not like he had seen me naked. But I feel so embarrassed that he saw my upper body covered with ugly scars and stitches.\'

Those scars were marks of her hard work and training when she was still in the training camp as a soldier.

\'Will he feel disgusted after seeing those ugly marks?\' Bianca sighed deeply at that thought.

For some unknown reason, Bianca didn\'t like Clifford to see her flaws. She knew that men like Cliffords only wanted to see the beauty in women, not their flaws.

"Why do I care?" Bianca murmured to herself. "I don\'t need to impress him."

"You can turn around now. I\'m done." Bianca said, giving Clifford her go signal.

Clifford turned to face her with a guilty look in his eyes. "Again… I\'m sorry about that Bianca."

"It\'s alright. Just forget what you\'ve seen."

Clifford fell silent. Forgetting about it would be impossible. He thought he might be thinking of her more often.

Clifford extended his hand to Bianca. He guided her back to her bed. The two seemed awkward toward each other.

They just decided to watch a movie as Bianca couldn\'t sleep yet. Clifford, who was tired for today, suddenly fell asleep on his chair without finishing the movie.

Bianca stood up and got a blanket for Clifford. She didn\'t want to wake him up so she\'s careful not to make any unnecessary noise.

Bianca sat on the edge of her bed while silently observing Clifford\'s sleeping figure. She couldn\'t believe that he was there with her right now.

The CEO of Sy Corp applied for a day off and leave of absence just to take care of her. She felt so touched and grateful for that.

"He looks so handsome even in his sleep." Bianca smiled inwardly.

She could still remember the first time she saw him in the picture. That was the first time she was hired by Tristan.

He showed her the photos of Clifford and Liam. She thought he was asking her opinion about the men. Clifford\'s photo caught her attention first.

Just thinking about it, Bianca was captivated by his cold and fierce look. He appeared to be indifferent as well but there was something charming about him… a unique charm that she couldn\'t deny.

Bianca giggled as she recalled their first encounter when she beat him up on the school campus.

Bianca was discovering lots of things about Clifford as time went by.

"Hmm, you look so cute and funny when you are drunk. I like the lively and carefree side of you…" Bianca mumbled.

She had the urge to touch Clifford\'s face but she hesitated. She just felt content watching him. When she got satisfied, Bianca finally went back to her bed, lying down comfortably.

She didn\'t regret saving him. She felt glad that he was safe. She was also happy about their current relationship.

When Bianca lay down on her bed, that\'s the moment Clifford opened his eyes. He was already awake when Bianca was watching over him. He woke up when he felt her putting a blanket on top of his body.

He heard some of her words. Clifford couldn\'t help but smile as he stole a glance at her. It did not take long when Bianca finally drifted off to sleep.

Clifford made sure to turn off the television and the lights. He fixed her blanket for one last time before saying goodnight to Bianca.

He remained seated on the vacant chair near Bianca\'s bed. He kept watching her but his mind wandered at the scene he witnessed a while ago.

He could still vividly remember the scars and marks on her body. He could tell that Bianca had it rough before but she was still tough. He admired her for that.

"Some women choose to be a model, an actress, a lawyer, a teacher, and a doctor. But this lady chose to be a soldier… a fierce fighter. But this side of her didn\'t make her less beautiful. She\'s more charming than the other women that I know…"

"And now, she continues protecting people by being a bodyguard… She is so admirable."

Clifford paused for a moment as he reached out to caress her cheeks and stroke her hair.

\'But why do I feel like this. My heart aches for her after seeing those scars… She deserves to be protected as well.\'

Clifford didn\'t understand why he was feeling this. Did he pity her or did he just feel the need to protect her.

*****

The next morning, Clifford still did his routine of taking care of Bianca. He also bought her requested food. Dr. Yuri allowed her to eat her favorite food as long as it was not greasy.

Dr. Yuri checked Bianca\'s condition. She estimated that if her condition continued to feel better, she could be discharged from the hospital after five days.

Dr. Yuri was still talking to Bianca and Clifford when another visitor arrived. Brandon showed up again, bringing a bouquet for the patient.

Clifford didn\'t know whether he would be glad to see his friend or not. But his expression remained sour after Brandon greeted him.

"Good morning Bianca and Clifford. Oh, Dr. Yuri, you are also here!" Brandon entered the VIP ward with his cheerful mood.

"Hi Brandon! Did you bring me chocolate?" Bianca winked at Brandon. He promised to bring her some the last time he visited her.

But unfortunately he had forgotten to buy it today. Brandon just smiled at her sheepishly while apologizing.

Clifford arched his eyebrow and scolded Brandon. "Don\'t make promises if you can\'t fulfill them."

"Hey! Hey! Why are you getting mad? Bianca said it\'s fine. But why are you the one getting upset?" Brandon lamented to his friend Clifford.

But Clifford just ignored him as he turned to Bianca. "Just tell me what you want. I will buy it for you. Don\'t rely on this liar!"

"Hey! I am not a liar! I just forgot it." Brandon defended himself.

Dr. Yuri and Bianca could only giggle because of the bickering between Brandon and Clifford.

"Ahem, Cliff, are you on red days? Why are you so grumpy today?" Brandon wrapped his arms around Clifford\'s shoulder, teasing his friend.

Clifford just shoved away his arms while glaring at Brandon. He just left the ward without saying a word.

Dr. Yuri, Brandon, and Bianca just watched Clifford as he walked out.

"Hey, did I do something wrong?" Brandon asked the ladies.

Bianca and Dr. Yuri just shrugged their shoulders.

Little did they know, Clifford went out to buy chocolates for Bianca. He got upset because Bianca requested it from Brandon but she never mentioned it to Clifford.

He could also see how comfortable Bianca and Brandon were while talking to each other.

Meanwhile, Dr. Yuri said goodbye to Bianca and Brandon after she was done checking her vitals.

She just got out of the VIP ward when Brandon followed her.

"Yuri!" He called her, grabbing her elbow.

Yuri stopped on her track before facing Brandon.

"Yes, Brandon? Do you need something?"

"I wonder if you are available tonight. Can I invite you for a drink?"

Yuri didn\'t respond right away. She just looked at him in confusion. She was assessing him if he was serious or not.

"Hey, I promise I will not bully you. I just want to catch up with you. Are you free tonight?" Brandon asked her again.

"Promise, no monkey business!" He added.

Yuri just smiled at him before nodding her head. "Okay. Let\'s hang out tonight. I will be free by 7:00 pm."

Brandon\'s face brightened up when he heard that. "Okay, great! I will fetch you by 7:00 pm. See you later! Don\'t stand me up, okay?"

"Yes, I won\'t! Don\'t worry!"
