The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 623: Hypothetical Question

~ Sy Corp Building ~

Brandon dropped by Clifford's office. He was bored staying in his office so he decided to hang out with Clifford in the Sy Corp.

They watched the press conference of the Heavenly Star Enterprise.

Between the two men, only Brandon knew the significance of Andrew's announcement. He was glad that he did it for Alveena.

'It seems that the Davis Family already knew about Alveena and Andrew,' Brandon thought to himself after watching Grandpa Lu's announcement.

On the other hand, Clifford was still wondering why Tristan's grandfather mentioned their family. He found it strange since they had no connection at all except that Alveena and Zhen-Zhen were friends.

Last time, Tristan and Zhen-Zhen attended the party, apologizing to him and politely talked to their parents. He couldn't understand what was happening right now.

"Hey, what are you thinking? Your mind is wandering somewhere again," Brandon said, teasing Clifford.

Clifford just ignored Brandon. He knew him. Brandon would continue pestering him if he said something.

He just decided to divert the topic from him to Brandon.

"What happened that night? Why did you deny the announcement? I thought you really liked my sister? You even told me that you would never give up until she would take notice of you?" Clifford started to interrogate Brandon.

Brandon's lips curled up into a faint smile. Though he was smiling, there was a gleam of sadness in his eyes.

"Hmm, sometimes you will just know when to give up. Though I like her so much, being friends with her is much better than forcing myself to be with her. I guess this is true love or selfless love. You are willing to step down for her happiness."

Brandon's words were full of meaning. Clifford couldn't help but reflect to himself. He told himself that he liked Zhen-Zhen. But he kept on giving her trouble.

He was so focused on winning her heart and stealing her from Tristan without considering her feelings. In the end, he hurt and disappointed her.

He was so selfish that he ended up ruining his friendship with her. If he had thought the same thing as Brandon, then he could have saved their friendship.

"Why didn't I think about that before?"

Brandon let out a soft chuckle. "Hey, don't tell me you can relate with me?!! Impossible! Are you and Olive going to fix your relationship?"

Clifford shot him a cold sharp glare. He didn't want to talk about Olive. She continued messaging and calling him but Clifford was ignoring her.

"Oh, if it's not Olive, does it mean you have another girl in mind?" Brandon continued as he noticed Clifford's reaction.

Clifford wanted to divert the topic away from him a while ago, but now, Brandon was back in talking about Clifford and his love life.

"Stop talking about girls! I don't have time for them."

Brandon burst out laughing again.

"I guess both of us will end up being single forever. Ahem. Should we start doing blind dates?! Just say yes and I will set you up with someone I know!"

Clifford threw his ballpen at Brandon. Fortunately, he was able to catch it.

"Just shut up, Brandon, or else I will send you out of my office right now!"

"Sigh, you don't know how to have fun. Stop working! You should hang out once in a while! You are not getting younger! You should find a new girl!" Brandon nagged at him.

"You are like her. You sound like my sister nagging at me." Clifford shook his head helplessly.

Brandon just chuckled again. After a few seconds, he remembered something he wanted to ask Clifford.

"Cliff, what do you think about Andrew? You saw him on TV. What is your impression of him?" Brandon asked Clifford expectantly.

"Andrew Davis?" He asked.

Brandon just nodded his head frantically to confirm.

Clifford fell silent, thinking over Brandon's out-of-the-blue questions. He didn't respond right away.

He looked at Brandon suspiciously. "Why are you asking me this?"

Brandon smiled sheepishly while shrugging his shoulders.

"Hmmm, I'm just curious. I know you hate Tristan Davis. But how about his brother, Andrew?"

Clifford frowned hearing that. But in the end, he still answered Brandon.

"I don't hate Andrew. I have no reason to hate him. But it does not mean I like him too. I just want to act civil with him. As to my impression of him… I could say that he is more mature than Tristan Davis."

Brandon smiled inwardly. He knew that his bad impression of Tristan was hard to change.

"Clifford, this is just a hypothetical question but I want to hear your honest answer."

Clifford couldn't help but feel suspicious of Brandon because of his strange actions. He was suddenly asking him some questions about the Davis brothers.

"Will you be okay if Andrew ever becomes your brother-in-law?"

Clifford: "..."

He was at a loss for words after hearing Brandon's 'hypothetical question'.

Clifford didn't know the answer to that.

"I don't know. But I still prefer you to be my brother-in-law. You and my sister match each other well. Both of you are loud, noisy, and talkative!"

Brandon didn't know whether to cry or laugh because of Clifford's last remark.

"You know what Cliff, I don't know if you are complimenting me or not for being noisy and talkative. But all I can say is… I love you, brother-in-law!"

Brandon blatantly said because he was grateful knowing that Clifford liked him to be his brother-in-law.
