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

~ At Chou Hospital ~

Bianca was feeling better now as compared to before. Her parents still didn't know that she's in the hospital.

Clifford took the responsibility of taking care of her, showing Bianca his gentle side. Clifford took several days off to watch over Bianca in the hospital.

Today he was trying his best to serve his savior by feeding her food.

"Cliff, honestly… you don't have to do this," Bianca awkwardly said as she glanced at the spoon Clifford was holding. He was feeding Bianca a hot porridge.

"Don't mind me. Just take a bite. Eat more to recover your strength. You said that you hate staying in the hospital. Eat this to leave the hospital soon," Clifford softly said, encouraging Bianca.

Bianca felt like Clifford was more persistent than her mother. He really insisted on feeding her even though she could use her own hands in feeding herself.

"If you are doing this because you still feel guilty for what happened to me, then Cliff you don't have to worry about that. I can take care of myself."

Clifford just shook his head, signaling Bianca to open her mouth. She could only obey Clifford as he already brought the spoon near her mouth.

He smiled inwardly when Bianca took a spoonful of porridge. He scooped another one, blowing it first before feeding Bianca again.

Bianca's cheeks reddened as she blushed. She was not used to this gentle side of Clifford. He seemed to be a different person.

But then, she just realized that maybe this was one of Clifford's real attitudes. He might be hiding his gentleman side before. And now, he was freely expressing it and showing it to her.

After a few minutes, Bianca felt full. She had already eaten enough food, thanks to Clifford. She just finished eating the porridge when Clifford started peeling some fruits for her.

He looked like her private nurse. He was so attentive to her. Bianca felt grateful for his presence because she didn't find it boring when staying in the hospital because Clifford was there, accompanying her.

"Bianca…" Clifford called her out, still peeling the apple.

Bianca moved her gaze to Clifford, waiting for him to continue his sentence.

"I am not doing this just because I feel guilty. I really want to do this… taking care of you…"

Bianca was at a loss for words when Clifford said those words. For some unknown reason, her heart skipped a beat. She felt her face burning so she looked away.

"So don't ever think that I am forcing myself to do this just because I feel indebted to you. You are also my sister's friend… she also wishes for you to stay healthy and recover soon."

"Besides… I am your friend, aren't I?"

Bianca gave him a faint smile before nodding her head. Of course, yes! She would love to consider him as her friend. At least, they didn't need to fight and argue every day. Clifford would not only become her Boss, but also a good friend!

"What are you going to say to your parents? Aren't they wondering about your whereabouts?" Clifford suddenly asked Bianca as he remembered about her parents.

Bianca exhaled deeply. She decided to hide this from them so that they would not stop them from doing what she wanted.

If her parents learned that she was hurt because of her work, her parents would certainly not allow her to be a bodyguard again.

That's one of her parents' conditions. As long as she would not get hurt, they would allow her to continue her job.

"Boss Cliff! Help me out once I get discharged, okay? As you promise, we will make my parents believe that we worked out of town, that's why I didn't come home for the past few days." 

Bianca put on her pleading look while rubbing her hands together.

Clifford didn't know whether to laugh or not. Bianca looked problematic when it came to her parents.

"Stop worrying too much about that. I already gave you my words. I will cover you up with your parents. So you should focus on your fast recovery so that they will not notice that you got hurt." Clifford tapped Bianca's head as if he was petting a child.

Meanwhile, Bianca was satisfied by Clifford's response. Now he was done peeling the apple. He tried feeding her again. 

Bianca could only smile, taking another bite. She was in a great mood now so she just savored the moment wherein Clifford Sy was serving her wholeheartedly.

She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity wherein Clifford was acting very kind toward her. She never knew Clifford might go back to his cold self once she recovered from her wound.

After finishing her dessert, Clifford assisted Bianca to lean on the headrest of the sickbed. He fixed her position so that she would be comfortable in her bed.

"You should sleep early," Clifford said, tucking her on her bed.

But Bianca shook her head as she didn't feel sleepy at all.

"I need to wash up and brush my teeth first. Can you assist me in going to the bathroom?"

Clifford bobbed his head. Of course, he would be willing to help her. That's his purpose of staying by her side.

He gently pulled her up, making her stand up. Bianca was about to take a step when Clifford stopped her.

Bianca looked at him with her questioning gaze. Before she could ask him why, she just found herself being carried by Clifford using a bridal style.

He didn't let her walk but instead, he carried her to the bathroom. Bianca was too startled to complain. She just watched Clifford in disbelief while anchoring her arms around his neck.

She felt like a princess being treated and served by a handsome prince. Bianca didn't know how to feel about this.

She was worried that she would get used to this if Clifford continued spoiling her to the core.

Upon reaching the bathroom, Clifford gently put her down, before grabbing her toothbrush and applying some toothpaste on it.

Bianca just watched him move across the bathroom as he helped her with what she needed. He even stayed inside, standing on guard while letting Bianca do her things.

'Damn! What is he doing? I can't concentrate on brushing my teeth if he looks at me like that.' Bianca felt conscious as Clifford's gaze was fixed on her.

He was standing there as if he didn't want her to disappear from his eyes. She felt like she just got a bodyguard for 24/7.

"Cliff…" Bianca called his attention when she was done brushing her teeth.

"Yes, are you done?"

"Uhm. But I still need to wash up."

"You are not allowed to soak your wounds in the water. Let me clean you up!" Clifford volunteered, making Bianca's eyes widen in disbelief.

"No! No! I can do this myself. I'm not paralyzed! You can just wait for me outside…"

"No! This bathroom is slippery. What if you get hurt once I am not watching you?"

Bianca: "..."

"How can I wash up if you are watching me?" Bianca asked him exasperatedly. She felt like Clifford was overprotective and becoming unreasonable.

Clifford's lips curved into a cheeky smile. "Do it here, while I am here. Don't worry. I will close my eyes!"

Bianca arched her eyebrow, looking at him as if she just heard the most ridiculous joke.

"Cliff, are you serious?"

Clifford folded his arms across his chest before moving his head up and down. "Yes, I am hell serious!"

"Do you want me to knock some sense in your head, Mr. Sy? Can't you give me my privacy?"

"I am giving you privacy by closing my eyes," Clifford said matter-of-factly.

Bianca pursed her lips. She couldn't believe this guy's shamelessness.

"Do you want me to help you remove your patient's gown?" Clifford said with his straight face. He was simply teasing her, annoying her further.

Bianca smacked her forehead. "Aww! I think my operation is getting infected by Clifford's bacteria! Can you please behave!"

Clifford let out a soft chuckle before pinching her cheeks. "Hey! Hey! I am just kidding. Alright, I will give you your privacy. Just call me if you need anything. Just be careful, okay?"

Bianca finally heaved a sigh of relief when Clifford left her in the bathroom. Her cheeks were crimson red and her heart was pounding crazily inside her chest.

Clifford really knew how to tease a woman. She almost had a heart attack because of his crazy ideas and suggestions. But deep inside, she had to admit that she found him cute and charming.

He even made a joke while smiling and laughing with her.

"Clifford is a good guy. He is also caring," Bianca thought to herself as she watched herself in the mirror.

Clifford, on the other hand, just remained standing outside the door, waiting for Bianca to finish.

"Sigh, what is taking her so long?"
