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

Chapter 584 - Cowardice And Indecisiveness



"Hannah…"

"Andrew!" Hannah called his name with her enthusiastic voice.

"Surprise!" She mumbled as she hadn't noticed Alveena who was standing behind Andrew.

She pounced on Andrew, hugging him tightly. Both Alveena and Andrew froze in their respective spots. 

Indeed, this was a surprise! But they didn't like this kind of surprise.

On impulse, Alveena retreated her hand that was holding Andrew's hand. 

Seeing Hannah hugging Andrew in front of her, she felt like her heart was being squeezed right now.

Her face became pale. The bright mood she had a while ago dissipated into thin air in an instant. 

Watching Andrew and Hannah hugging each other made her feel that she was just another woman as if she was a mistress. She felt very bad about it.

She tried her best to hold her tears, getting ready to make an alibi so that Hannah would not find out about her relationship with Andrew?

But there was no relationship? Just mutual feelings! They didn't say that they were committed to each other. So there was no 'US' between them.

Andrew, on the other hand, was in turmoil right now. He didn't expect that Hannah would follow him in the City of Cyrus.

She caught him with another woman, inside his room.

When Hannah released Andrew from her hug, she finally noticed the presence of Alveena. The smile on his face disappeared as she creased her eyebrows.

She darted her gaze back and forth between Alveena and Andrew.

"What is she doing here in your room?" Hannah asked Andrew. She could recognize the girl as Andrew's personal assistant.

Hannah had no idea about Alveena's real identity and that she was no longer Andrew's personal assistant.

Upon hearing her question, Andrew was tongue-tied. He didn't know what to say. He was in a dilemma, whether to tell the truth or lie.

If he would lie then Alveena would be hurt because he denied what they had. But if he would tell the truth then Hannah would be the one being hurt.

It was the same as forcing him to choose between the two women. Who would he choose and who would he let go? Alveena or Hannah?

Andrew still couldn't make up his mind. But one thing was for sure, if he truly loved Hannah then he would not hesitate to lie.

Before Andrew could speak up, Alveena already answered Hannah's question.

"Miss Miller, good morning. Please don't misunderstand. Director Davis and I just worked all night to finish some presentations for the conference. We have just finished it so now I am going back to my room."

Alveena tried her best to sound polite and humble. She masked her pain with a faint smile.

After saying those words, Alveena didn't wait for Hannah's response or Andrew's words. She didn't want to hear Andrew denying their affair.

Without further ado, she came out of Andrew's room without looking back. 

Andrew cursed himself inwardly. He knew he had hurt Alveena's feelings once again. He had the urge to follow her but his cowardice stopped him.

Hannah was still in doubt but she didn't pursue the matter. She came there not to argue with Andrew. This was not the right time to be jealous.

She pushed her suspicion at the back of her mind. She needed to get something from Andrew. 

She couldn't afford to have another argument or conflict between them. They had just reconciled. 

Besides, part of her was still trusting Andrew. She knew Andrew loved her so much that he would never betray her or even cheat on her.

"Why are you here?" Andrew asked Hannah. He sounded like he was not happy to see her.

Hannah was taken aback when she heard his indifferent voice.

"I came here to surprise you. Why do you look upset?"

Andrew realized that he suddenly became moody. He took a deep breath before apologizing to Hannah.

"I'm sorry. I'm just tired and stressed out because of the conference." This time Andrew's voice became gentle compared to before.

Hannah pouted her lips. "Yeah. You didn't even answer my calls and messages. I thought you were intentionally ignoring me, weren't you?"

Andrew was rendered speechless once again because of Hannah's words. Yes! He was ignoring her calls and messages as he enjoyed Alveena's company.

"I'm sorry…" that's the only words he could utter. No more explanation, just a plain apology.

Hannah had conflicting thoughts seeing Andrew's behavior. She felt something different from him as if he was no longer the same Andrew she knew before.

'Am I just overthinking?' Hannah thought to herself. 

"Come inside first. Did you get tired from your trip? I am going home tomorrow. You should have just waited for me there."

"Sigh! I already waited long enough. I can't stand being apart from you for too long. I missed you so much!" Hannah said.

"I'm also planning to spend quality time with you here. Let's go for a night swim later. We were not able to do it when we were at Oceaniz City."

Andrew had mixed emotions right now. Hannah was right. There were things they hadn't done in Oceaniz City. He also planned to spend quality time with her on the beach at that time.

But he felt like everything had already changed now, including him and his feelings for her.

Andrew just nodded his head. "I'll just take a shower. Wait for me here," Andrew said before turning around.

His mind was occupied by Alveena. He wondered what she was thinking as of now. He wanted to beat himself for creating this mess.

Instead of fixing everything, he just made their situations more complicated.

Upon stepping into his bathroom, Andrew remained standing while leaning his back on the closed door. He was tugging his hair tightly.

He was supposed to give Alveena a surprise tonight since this would be their last night in that city. But his plan was now ruined because of Hannah's sudden arrival.

"What should I do? What should I do now?" Andrew's mind and feelings were in chaos.

'I have to decide soon… or else, I will keep hurting Alveena because of my selfishness and cowardice.'
