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

Meanwhile, in the other part of the City of Empire, just like Tristan and Zhen-Zhen, there was someone who couldn't sleep tonight as her mind was occupied by something.

Dr. Yuri was still thinking about Brandon and his proposal. She didn't expect that in the middle of their conversation, Brandon would suddenly ask her to date him exclusively.

She understood that the two of them were trying to mend their broken hearts. But she wasn't so sure if dating someone was the best choice to move on.

Since she didn't answer or reject Brandon. She just smiled awkwardly as she tried to divert the topic. Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Brandon didn't mention it further. He wanted Yuri to feel comfortable around him. They just continued drinking.

Yuri kept on turning and tossing around the bed. She was still thinking, debating in her mind whether to accept Brandon's proposal or not.

"I think Brandon… is not bad. He has a funny attitude and he is also thoughtful. He is definitely a good man." Yuri started talking to herself while staring at the ceiling.

She exhaled deeply. She wanted to sleep but she wasn't sleepy.

"Brandon Cullens…will it be worth it to give it a shot?" She pondered to herself, covering her face using both hands.

She grabbed her pillow and hugged it tightly. She realized that talking with Brandon about her heartbreak made her feel better. At least, both of them were in the same situation.

After a while, Yuri just smiled while shaking her head. "I should sleep. Fortunately, tomorrow is my day off. I don't need to come to the hospital."

Yuri stayed awake the whole night, still not able to come up with a decision. She finally drifted off to sleep at dawn as her mind got tired of thinking.

The next morning, Yuri was awakened by the sound of her ringtone. Someone was calling her. She slowly opened her eyes, feeling lazy to move.

But her phone continued ringing. With no choice left, she dragged herself up lazily, reaching for her phone that was placed on the top of her bedside table.

Upon getting her phone, she immediately pressed the answer button as she went back to her bed. She didn't check the name of the caller.

With her eyes closed, Yuri spoke to the caller in her sleepy tone. "Hello…?"

"Did I disturb your sleep?" A baritone voice of a man was heard from the other line.

Yuri snapped her eyes open, sobering up. She felt like her sleepiness suddenly disappeared the moment she heard that familiar voice.

"B-Brandon?" She foolishly asked him even though she already recognized his voice.

Brandon let out a husky laugh. He could tell that Yuri was not expecting him to call her as early this morning. She sounded surprised when she called out his name.

"How's your sleep, Dr. Chou?" He asked her, lips curling up into a wide smile. Brandon was drinking his coffee on the 2nd-floor balcony of his room.

Yuri chewed on her lower lip. She wanted to tell him she hadn't slept at all last night just because of him. She had the urge to complain and blame him but she was too embarrassed to voice it out.

She just answered him with a simple "It's fine."

"Hmm, really?! Why is your tone said otherwise? You sound like you didn't get enough sleep. Did you think of me all night?" He teased her.

"Of course not!" Yuri immediately denied his accusation. "My voice is always like this every morning."

'How did he know? Does he have telepathic skills?' Yuri mumbled to herself inwardly, frowning.

"Hey, I am just kidding. No need to be defensive. But honestly, your voice in the morning is so cute.  Can I call you every day just to hear this kind of voice?"

Yuri was at a loss for words. She couldn't believe that Brandon would be so flirty as early as this morning.

Yuri touched her face as she felt her cheeks turning so hot. She was blushing because of Brandon's last remarks.

"Hey, Dr. Chou, are you still there? Don't tell me you fell asleep already?" Brandon was becoming more playful in teasing her.

"Mr. Cullens!"

Brandon let out another soft chuckle. He could imagine Yuri's blushing face right now. He could remember how cute and pretty she was whenever she would blush and become speechless because of his shameless advances.

"Anyway, why did you call me? Is there something you need?"

"Why are you asking me this? Do I need a reason to call you, Dr. Chou?"

Yuri could only sigh helplessly. This was the playful Brandon Cullens that she met abroad.

"What do you need?" She asked him again.

"You…" he responded, making Yuri speechless once again.

Hearing the silence from the other line, Brandon chuckled cheerfully once more.

"I need you as a heart doctor. Maybe you can also heal my broken heart. Can you fix it for me, Dr. Yuri Chou?" Brandon said it in a teasing and flirty manner.

"Mr. Cullens! If you will not speak to me seriously, I will hang up the phone," Yuri threatened him as she could no longer handle his playfulness.

Brandon stopped laughing. "Who said I'm not serious? Yuri… I'm serious today and last night. What do you think? Should we give it a try? Let's date!"

The truth was Brandon was not able to sleep last night, just thinking about this. He analyzed himself if he was serious about asking her out and dating her.

After staying up all night, he realized that he was serious. He wanted to move on. He needed help from someone. And Yuri was the one who was the best candidate for that.

Besides, he also wanted to help her move on from her heartbreak.

"Alright. I think this is not the proper way to ask you this. I'm coming over! Let's talk personally." Brandon said before hanging up. He decided to go to Yuri's place.

Yuri's eyes widened when Brandon ended the call without waiting for her reply.

"What did he say? He is coming over to my place?!"

Yuri immediately got up from the bed and ran towards her bathroom. She needed to take a bath and make herself presentable before Brandon arrived.
