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

Chapter 223 - Cool Off



Alveena didn't stay long in the hospital. She had to leave since her brother was already waiting for her. They had an important meeting today.

She just dropped by at the hospital to check Andrew's condition. She felt glad and relieved when Andrew looked better now. His wound was not severe and his test results were all normal.

Of course, Alveena didn't forget to tease and annoy Andrew during her stay. She even watched him eat his breakfast. Andrew couldn't concentrate because Alveena was looking at him.

He somehow felt uncomfortable with her presence. In the end, he was not able to finish his food. Alveena just encouraged him to eat the fruits she brought for him.

She even peeled and cut those fruits for him, feeding while nagging him to eat more. Though she was annoying, Andrew had to admit that she was also extra caring with a patient like him.

The doctor and nurse also came to check Andrew's vitals. They even mistook the two of them for a couple. Andrew was the one who was embarrassed while Alveena just played along with the doctor and nurse, pretending to be his girlfriend.

Andrew wanted to correct their wrong assumption but Alveena stopped him from talking by stuffing fruits inside his mouth. Andrew just kept quiet because of Alveena's warning.

When the doctor and the nurse came out of his room, Andrew asked Alveena why she did it, pretending to be her girlfriend. Alveena giggled and just told him 'Because it's fun to prank people sometimes!'

Andrew couldn't help but facepalm because of her unreasonable response. He told her that she's not a kid anymore to play pranks on people.

But Alveena just shrugged her shoulders, telling Andrew not to be serious with life always. He needed to loosen up a little bit and have fun.

Andrew just kept quiet because he knew he would never win against this talkative noisy woman when it came to arguments.

When Alveena left, Andrew's ward became quiet once again. He realized that Alveena's presence helped him forget his trouble even just for a while.

Now, that he was alone in his room, he felt lonely once again. He just averted his gaze to the carnation flowers Alveena brought for him.

Then Hannah's beautiful face popped up in his mind. "I wonder what she's doing right now. Are they still in the hospital? Is she waiting for me?" Andrew mumbled.

He took a deep breath before picking up his phone from his bedside table. He decided to read Hannah's messages.

He was still reading her messages when his door suddenly swung open and Hannah emerged from it. She immediately ran towards Andrew's sickbed and hugged him.

"Andrew!" Hannah called his name as she embraced him tightly.

Andrew was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to see Hannah. 'How did she know that I am here?'

Following Hannah behind were Andrew's parents, Lucas and Isabelle. Andrew's eyes widened in surprise when he saw them.

"Mom? Dad?"

'They also came?!' Andrew was still in his baffled state.

"Andrew, son, how are you? How do you feel?" Isabelle also approached him, holding Andrew's hand. Her face was painted with worries and concerns.

"Son, why didn't you call us? We are worried about you." Lucas said with his concerned voice.

"How did you know that I am here?" Andrew finally spoke up after he recovered from the shock.

"Did you forget that your Uncle Jaime is working in the prosecutor's office? He went to the police precinct this morning, then he found out about your car accident through the Chief. The Police Chief is his good friend. His subordinate told him that you were admitted to this hospital." Lucas explained to Andrew.

"Don't worry, your Uncle already handled your fine and penalty. He fixed everything already," Lucas added. 

He wanted to ask his son why he was drunk while driving but he decided to ask him later. The important thing right now was Andrew's safety.

"You are on the way to the Star City District Hospital at that time, right?" It was Hannah who asked him.

Andrew just nodded his head as a response.

"Thank God, you're safe!" Hannah's grip on Andrew's body tightened.

Despite what Hannah did last night, Andrew couldn't push her away. He could only hug her back and stroke her hair. She was crying in his arms. She was worried sick after hearing about Andrew's accident.

Isabelle was the one who informed her. Since her mother was already fine, Hannah immediately drove off to this hospital to see Andrew.

Lucas and Isabelle decided to see Andrew's doctor and ask him about their son's condition. They also wanted to give the couple some privacy.

After a few minutes, Hannah finally calmed down. She released Andrew from her tight grasp. She sat down on the side of his sickbed, facing Andrew. 

He raised his hand to wipe her tears on her face. He was happy to see the worry in Hannah's eyes. But still, his heart was in pain. He knew that Hannah still loved his brother, Tristan.

"I'm so worried about you. Last night, I didn't know where to find you. It was unusual for you not to return my messages and answer my call. It turned out, something bad happened to you." 

"How's your mom?" Andrew asked her.

"She's alright now. She will be discharged today."

Andrew nodded. He felt relieved to hear that. 

After a while, Andrew looked straight into Hannah's eyes and said, "Hannah, I think we should give ourselves some time and space for now."

Hannah's brows knitted into a frown. There was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"What do you mean, Andrew? What are you talking about?"

Andrew fell silent for several seconds. He was trying to figure out in his heart if he really wanted to do this. He thought about this so many times today, and he finally came up with this decision.

"Hannah, let's have cool off. I think we both need to take a break from our relationship." Andrew was trying his best to look brave though his heart was bleeding as of this moment.

"Why? This is so sudden, Andrew. What made you decide this?" Hannah's tears began to well up once again in the corner of her eyes.

"Hannah… I…" Andrew took a deep breath before continuing.

"I saw you last night with Tristan. I saw everything. I heard everything. You confessed to him."
