Chased By My Demon CEO

Hearing her name made Andrew pay attention to the girl in front of him.

"Celine…." said Andrew quickly when he realized that the girl in front of him was the girl he had helped a few days ago. 

"Yes, it's me, sir, ... how are you doing?" Celine asked with a smile. 

"I'm good. Ah, yeah, let's get inside. It's getting cold outside," Andrew replied, inviting Celine into the restaurant. 

Celine nodded slowly and followed Andrew's steps that had entered the restaurant first. They sat on a chair near the sink. Andrew ordered food for Celine and they ate together while exchanging stories to each other. 

"How are you these past few days? The air outside is very cold," asked Celine while enjoying the burger in front of her. 

"It has become part of my job so I just enjoy it, how about you? Is everything going well with your study?" Andrew asked back. 

"Actually, I've finished college, I only took a few short courses before I graduate next month," Celine replied excitedly. 

"Oh, I didn't know that you are graduating from college soon?" 

"I just need to take the oath of office so that I can work, that's more precisely," said Celine cutting Andrew's words quickly. 

Andrew smiled at Celine's words, he then enjoyed the french fries in front of him which were getting cold. They then shared their cell phone numbers before finally returning to their respective activities. 

"Are you sure you don't want me to take you, Celine?" asked Andrew for the umpteenth time to Celine who was walking towards the bus stop.

"Yes, I'm really fine. I have to go to my friend's house first before returning home. You can just go back to work," Celine replied with a smile rejecting Andrew's offer.

"Okay, then. I'll go first and don't forget to tighten your jacket. The night wind is so chilled to the bone," Andrew said to Celine with a smile, he honked his car and drove fast towards the highway. 

Celine was only smiling when she saw Andrew left, she clutched her cell phone tightly after she had managed to get Andrew's phone number. Soon after that, Celine got on the bus which she was waiting for excitedly because she met Andrew and was able to get his cell phone number. 

FERNANDO'S PALACE

After an hour, the IV bottle that was attached to Viona's hand got empty and Viona soon regained her consciousness.

"I'm thirsty," said Viona for the first time when she opened her eyes. 

Fernando smiled and grabbed the glass filled with water on the nightstand, he slowly helped Viona to get her drink. Both of Fernando's eyes showed deep regret when he looked at Viona.

"You have to eat first. I know you haven't eaten anything since morning," said Fernando softly. 

Viona shook her head slowly rejecting Fernando's offer because she really had no appetite, she felt like closing her eyes again. 

"You have to eat or you'll regret it," said Fernando with a rising tone while holding Viona's hand hard. 

Viona's eyes suddenly glistened at Fernando's words, her face immediately flushed, accompanied by tears streaming down her face.

"Why are you such a crybaby? I didn't do anything to you, right?" asked Fernando irritably. 

"My hand….hiks…my hand hurts when you hold it so hard like that huu huuu huwwaaa," Viona broke down crying after she had endured it since last night, for some reason she wanted to cry in front of Fernando. 

Deg 

Fernando immediately turned his head toward Viona's hand he was holding so firmly, his eyes suddenly widened when he realized what he was doing. Without being asked twice, Fernando immediately let go of his grip because he accidentally grabbed the hand where the IV needle was inserted into Viona's hand.

"I'm so sorry, honey. I didn't mean to hurt you," cried Fernando guiltily. 

"Huuuu it hurts hiksss… " Viona pulled her hand and as she was about to blow it to relieve the pain, Fernando quickly took over what Viona was going to do. 

Fernando gently blew Viona's hand where the IV needle was attached to it since it bled a little blood. Sometimes, Fernando glanced at Viona who was wiping the tears that ran down her face using her right hand. Feeling guilty, Fernando then suddenly hugged Viona tightly and made Viona surprised because she didn't expect to be treated like that by Fernando, she still remembered the incident last night when her husband beat her. Viona who still felt pain immediately tried to release Fernando's embrace. 

"You have to eat something, honey. All the servants told me you haven't eaten anything today. Don't you remember you have acid reflux?" Fernando said with a smile.

"I haven't ... "

"Open your mouth," Fernando said quickly cutting off Viona's words while spooning food towards Viona's mouth. 

Viona was forced to open her bitter mouth, she slowly chewed the food that was in her mouth because she saw Fernando kept giving codes to her to eat. After being forced to eat by Fernando, Viona finally gave up on the sixth spoon because her stomach suddenly contracted and it was ready to release the food she had just eaten. 

"That's enough, I want to throw up," Viona said quietly while covering her mouth with her hand. 

"Ok .... drink this warm water, you will feel better," Fernando replied in defeat, he could not bear to see Viona trying to swallow all the food she had been eating before.

Viona drained the water that Fernando gave quickly so that it made Fernando smiled. 

"You are such a stupid doctor!!!" said Fernando suddenly, cursing Viona. 

"Stupid??" asked Vion, she repeated Fernando's words.

"I'm not even sure if you were studying in England," Fernando replied curtly. 

Viona shrugged and tilted her head to show that she did not understand what Fernando was talking about. 

"I'll tell you one thing, Vio. Millions of girls out there trying to compete with each other while admitting that they are still virgins... On the other hand, you told me you've slept with other men? Not to mention that the man you admitted to having slept with is Frank, who is actually a sex maniac," Fernando said, lifting Viona's chin at him with a sharp gaze. 

Viona swallowed her saliva at Fernando's words, her two eyes were suddenly enlarged which showed a huge shock.

"What do you mean? What are you talking about?" asked Viona stuttered.

"Why you look so shocked, honey," instead of answering his wife's question, Fernando teased her.

"Do I seem surprised? I'm just reacting normally," said Viona fiercely while fending Fernando's hand that was still holding her chin.

"Well then, I apparently have to find out the truth myself," said Fernando while pushing Viona's body until she laid on her back.

"Wait! Don't do this, please! Let me explain! What are you going to do exactly?" Viona screamed in panic.

"I want to find out the truth of what you said last night, honey," replied Fernando, kissing Viona's neck. 

Viona shook her head when she felt Fernando's kiss land on her neck, all the hairs on her neck stood up when she felt Fernando's tongue tracing into the other part of her neck. Without realizing it, Viona sighed. 

"I'll be gentle,"  whispered Fernando to Viona's ear.
