BXBX NOVEL Chapter 863 Bianca & Clifford VI
Four Days Later…
Bianca visited Zhen-Zhen and Alveena in the Davis Family Mansion. Zhen-Zhen noticed that Bianca was troubled by something. She looked like she had something to say but she was hesitant to bring it up.
"Bianca, are you okay? You are zoning out," Zhen-Zhen said, tapping her shoulder.
Bianca raised her head, gazing at her with an embarrassed expression on her face.
"I bet she just missed my brother," Alveena butted in, teasing Bianca. "How is he, by the way?" she added.
"He hasn\'t contacted me for two days now. He told me that he would call me every night but I didn\'t receive any call or messages from him for the past two days." Bianca shared with her friends truthfully.
"Do you want me to call Dexter? Let\'s ask him about his Boss\' whereabouts." Alveena suggested.
Zhen-Zhen nodded her head in agreement with Alveena\'s suggestion. "Yeah, let\'s contact him so that Bianca will feel at ease once she finds out what Clifford is doing right now."
On the other hand, Bianca was still contemplating. She darted her gaze back and forth between Alveena and Zhen-Zhen, trying to assess her feelings.
Yes! She wanted to know what happened to Clifford. What was the reason he stopped communicating with her?
"Yes, Alvee… can you ask Dexter?"
Alveena smiled broadly and tapped her shoulders. "Sure. Anything for my sister-in-law!"
Zhen-Zhen giggled as she saw Bianca\'s reddened face. She blushed the moment she heard Alveena calling her sister-in-law.
Alveena picked up her phone and dialed Dexter\'s number. It rang a few times before it was answered by Clifford\'s assistant.
"Hello, Lady Alveena." Dexter\'s voice was heard from the other line. Alveena put her phone in the loudspeaker mode for Bianca and Zhen-Zhen to hear Dexter.
"Hi, Dex. Did I disturb you?"
"No, Ma\'am." He promptly responded.
"Where is my brother? Is he busy?" Alveena asked him directly.
Dexter fell silent for a moment. He was not able to answer Alveena\'s question right away.
"Dexter? Are you there? Did you hear me?" Alveena was puzzled as to why Dexter had become quiet.
Bianca and Zhen-Zhen were waiting for his response.
"Sir Cliff… he has a meeting with the investor right now." Dexter seemed off when he answered them.
"Alright. Can you please relay my message to my brother?"
"Sure, Lady Alveena. What is it?"
"Tell him to contact Bianca! She is missing him already!" Alveena uttered, making Bianca\'s eyes widen.
"Hey, Alvee!"
"Why? Am I wrong? I know you miss him already, don\'t you?"
Bianca could only pout her lips. She couldn\'t refute her words because it was true.
"Don\'t worry, Lady Alveena. I will inform him." Dexter reassured her.
After talking to Dexter, Alveena hung up the phone. Zhen-Zhen and Alveena continued interrogating Bianca.
"Aside from Clifford. What is bothering you?" The two women could tell that Bianca had another problem in mind.
Bianca glanced at them before heaving a deep sigh. Maybe it was best for her to tell them what was on her mind.
"It\'s about Olive…"
"Olive?! My brother\'s ex-fiancé!" Zhen-Zhen and Alveena spoke up in unison.
"What happened between you and Olive?" Alveena probed.
"A few days ago, Olive visited me at my apartment. She told me that she wanted Clifford back. And she begged me to help her–"
"What?! She said that to you!" Alveena\'s eyes went round as she blurted it out exasperatedly.
"How dare she?! My brother is already happy with you. Why is she trying to complicate things again!"
Zhen-Zhen rubbed Alveena\'s back to calm her down. "Hey, don\'t get mad and be stressed out. It\'s not good for you and your baby."
"The truth is… Olive is sick… She has Leukemia." Bianca informed them.
Alveena and Zhen-Zhen were taken aback when they heard that.
The room was engulfed with silence for several seconds before Alveena spoke once again.
"Hey, Bianca?! Don\'t tell me you are considering her request? Are you going to give up my brother just because Olive is terminally ill?"
Before Bianca could respond, Alveena said another word. "Don\'t you ever do that, Bianca! Fight for my brother! I feel sorry for her but it doesn\'t mean I will let her be with my brother again. Their relationship is already over. My brother doesn\'t love her anymore!"
Bianca looked straight into Alveena\'s eyes and asked her, "Are you sure, Alvee? What if… Clifford still has feelings left for Olive? Do you think he will have a change of heart once he finds out Olive\'s current condition?" This was the thought Bianca was afraid of.
Alveena and Zhen-Zhen could see the fear in her eyes. At that certain moment, Bianca was afraid… afraid of losing Clifford.
It did not take long when Bianca received a message from an unknown number. Bianca\'s expression changed the moment she saw the content of that message.
"Bianca?" Zhen-Zhen called her out but it seemed like Bianca didn\'t hear her. Her attention was so focused on her phone screen.
Out of curiosity, Alveena took a peek at Bianca\'s phone and saw something that shocked her to the core.
"What is the meaning of this? Why is my brother with Olive? I thought he was having a meeting right now with the investors?"
Bianca\'s hand trembled and accidentally dropped the phone. Then she stood up with tears threatening to fall. Without saying a word, Bianca dashed out of the room.
"Bianca, Wait!" Alveena wanted to follow her but Zhen-Zhen stopped her.
"Let\'s give her space for a while, Alvee. She wants to be alone…" Zhen-Zhen mumbled, staring in the direction where Bianca disappeared to.
"Damn, Clifford! I will punch that foolish brother of mine the moment he comes back here!"
Zhen-Zhen just watched Alveena helplessly and said, "Don\'t jump to conclusions. Let\'s hear his explanation first."
"Hmmph. If he dares to cheat on Bianca, I swear, I will disown him as my brother! He will no longer be my brother!"
After saying that, Alveena called Dexter once again. She started scolding and interrogating Dexter over the phone. Zhen-Zhen could only sigh while listening to them.
