Brandon's expression of genuine shock was clearly visible when he heard the woman's words. Was he hearing this correctly?

"Oh, damn! I can't believe it, this woman is absolutely crazy!" Brandon exclaimed, staring at Brianna and shaking his head. In all his life, he had never met a woman as insane and wild as Brianna.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Hearing that, Brianna burst into laughter again. She found Brandon really funny and different.

If she was being honest, there were hundreds of men trying to get close to her right now. But seeing this young man's reaction to what she had just said, Brianna couldn't help but laugh.

"You're so funny, Mr. Brandon!" Brianna was still laughing, thoroughly entertained by Brandon's expressions.

Brandon raised one eyebrow, looking at Brianna with a serious gaze. He sighed. "If you brought me here just to laugh at me, then I'll just leave," Brandon said before standing up, fully intending to leave.

Clearly, this shocked Brianna. Brandon couldn't take a joke at all.

    Brianna remained in the same position, staring at Brandon with a serious gaze. She didn't even acknowledge Brandon's words.Brandon sighed, looking annoyed at Brianna who seemed to be toying with him. "Please don't joke around too much, Miss Brianna," Brandon said again. "Don't you realize some guests are staring at us?" Brandon then tried to help Brianna back to her seat, glancing at the people now watching them.Although there weren't many patrons in the restaurant, Brandon didn't like being the center of attention, especially now that some guests were looking at Brandon and Brianna alternately, whispering things Brandon could easily guess."This is something I didn't expect," Brandon finally muttered.Seeing Brandon's expression, Brianna smiled and said, "I'm not joking, Mr. Brandon. For a long time... I've wanted to marry someone who impresses me for the first time. And that someone is you." Brianna paused, looking at Brandon, who was indeed different from others. Satisfied, she c

    Brandon looked at Brianna with slight confusion. He didn't expect Brianna to refuse to end their meeting, especially considering the restaurant was empty."Ahem!" Brandon cleared his throat, trying to revive the atmosphere that he found uncomfortable. "Miss Brianna," Brandon said in a gentle but firm tone, "I appreciate your desire to continue our conversation. However, as I said earlier, this restaurant is empty. We're the only ones left here. Are you sure you want to stay?"Brianna paused for a moment, her eyes scanning the now-empty restaurant. She seemed a bit surprised, as if just realizing their situation. However, instead of feeling uncomfortable, a small smile appeared on her lips. Brianna seemed unbothered by the fact that they were the only two left in the restaurant."I... I didn't realize," Brianna finally said, turning to Brandon and continuing, "But honestly, Mr. Brandon, I feel very comfortable talking with you. I don't want this to end just like that."Brianna's honest

    Brianna was still in shock. She certainly never expected Brandon to be a medical expert. The man had never even mentioned his expertise.Brianna looked at Brandon seriously and asked, "Is this true, Mr. Brandon? Are you Miss Angelica's personal doctor?"Before Brandon could answer Brianna's question, Jose spoke up again. "Of course, Miss Brianna. Mr. Brandon is truly an expert. He even cured Miss Stella's father, who had been sick for a long time. No other doctor had succeeded in curing him." Jose recounted this with great enthusiasm.Jose's memory was still vivid. He was amazed and could never forget it.Meanwhile, Brandon smiled awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable with the praise given by Jose. He raised his hand, trying to stop the flow of enthusiastic words from Jose, who had been talking excitedly."Dr. Jose, please. You're exaggerating," said Brandon, who seemed to dislike it. "And it was probably just a miracle. I'm not what you think."But Jose shook his head firmly. "No, Mr. Bra

    Hearing the words coming out of Brianna's mouth made Brandon chuckle, shaking his head in amusement. He couldn't believe that even at a time like this, Brianna could still joke around."Miss Brianna, you're full of surprises," said Brandon, his tone now sounding more relaxed. "I appreciate your sense of humor."Brandon's response made Brianna smile. But the woman didn't seem to indicate that it was just a joke. "I'm glad to see you a bit more relaxed, Mr. Brandon, but... honestly, I wasn't joking about that. If you want..."Before Brianna could finish her sentence, Brandon quickly cut in and said, "It seems it's getting quite late, Miss Brianna." Brandon peered outside, looking at the streets that were usually busy with many drivers, now quiet with only one or two cars passing by.Brianna's smile faded slightly. Her face showed a hint of disappointment, but she tried to cover it up quickly. Even so, Brandon caught the change in her expression.Brianna took a slow breath before finally

    "Besides, it's unusual for you to still be up at this hour, Angelica. Is something bothering you?" Richard asked again, looking at Angelica intently.Angelica sighed at Richard's question. Why did she feel like she was being interrogated now? If she had known it would be like this, she would have chosen not to greet Richard and let him go wherever he wanted."The air in my room felt stuffy, that's why I decided to get some fresh air outside."Richard narrowed his eyes, feeling that Angelica's answer wasn't entirely truthful. "Are you sure? Isn't the air conditioning still working?"Angelica swallowed nervously. She knew Richard could easily see through her lies."I... I just needed some alone time to think," Angelica said, trying not to sound nervous. She took a deep breath before continuing, "There are some things that have been bothering me lately."Richard softened his gaze. "What's bothering you, Angelica? You know you can talk to me."Angelica hesitated for a moment. Actually, sh

    Angelica turned to Richard, slightly startled because the words that came out of their mouths were the same. It meant they both left the house with the same intention.Meanwhile, Brandon was a bit surprised but chose to act normal. "I'm sorry, Mr. Richard and Miss Angelica, I didn't know you needed to see me."Richard quickly shook his head, "No need to apologize, Mr. Brandon. I just happened to be looking for some fresh air and saw you had just arrived."Angelica nodded, agreeing with what Richard had just said.Feeling slightly uncomfortable, Richard spoke again, "Since you're here, could we talk for a moment?"Angelica immediately turned. She actually wanted to say the same thing, but Richard beat her to it.Brandon just nodded, although he didn't really know why Richard wanted to talk to him. "Of course, Mr. Richard."Richard smiled, then turned to Angelica, making her furrow her brow in confusion. "What is it?" she finally asked."I want to talk to Mr. Brandon, and it's already l

    The next morning, Brandon, who was sound asleep, suddenly jolted awake hearing a knock on his bedroom door. He blinked, trying to gather his senses. His head felt heavy and dizzy from the short sleep last night."Who's disturbing my sleep this early? Don't they know I'm sleep-deprived?"Brandon glanced at the clock on the nightstand. It still showed 6:00 AM. Realizing this, Brandon sighed. He wondered if there would ever be a day when he could sleep in."This is really annoying," Brandon grumbled. Although reluctant, he forced himself to get up and trudged towards the door. His head felt a bit dizzy, but he forced himself to open the door to find out who was waking him up so early."Yeah, just a second," Brandon said as the door was knocked again. "Really impatient," he added.Irritated, Brandon pressed the door handle. He frowned slightly when he saw his mother behind the door.Brandon's mother immediately smiled when she saw her son, who still looked handsome despite just waking up.

    Brandon froze, his eyes widening in shock at his mother's statement. Wanting to hear more clearly, Brandon decided to ask a question. However, before he could actually voice his query, he suddenly heard his mother laugh."Hahahaha, Brandon," said his mother, still chuckling. "Mom was just kidding. You should have seen the expression on your face."Brandon frowned, confusion clearly visible on his face. He opened his mouth to ask further, but his mother quickly cut him off."Forget about it," his mother said, waving her hand dismissively. "Now, hurry up and go out. Miss Angelica is waiting. It's not polite to keep a guest waiting too long."Brandon's mother hurried out of the room, shaking her head as if she had just told a harmless joke. Brandon could only remain silent, still trying to process what had just happened.His thoughts were in turmoil. How could his mother joke about something so important? The expression of sadness and guilt he had seen on her face earlier seemed too real

    All day long, Ariana was in her room. She kept shedding tears, so sad that Brandon had left her. They were going to get married soon, but why did something so unwanted have to happen?"Why did you decide to leave me, Brandon? Can't you just give me one chance?"Ariana kept trying to call him, but until now, Brandon hadn't picked up the phone. Many times Ariana made calls, but still Brandon had no intention of picking up the phone from her. However, Ariana doesn't want to give up so easily. She would keep trying to call Brandon until he picked up the phone.Feeling annoyed because she had tried several times to call, Ariana rudely threw her cell phone in all directions, so angry with the man who did not want to pick up the phone from her."Shit! What do you want from me, Brandon? How can you ignore me like this!"

    Brandon flashed a smile. He could of course deduce from his mother's lucky question that she was really worried about him. Brandon was grateful to have a mother who loved him so much and was always there when he was in trouble."Brandon is fine, Mom. There's no need to worry," Brandon finally said.Brandon's mom nodded her head, truly relieved that nothing major had happened to Brandon. The middle-aged woman put down the fruit she had bought before deciding to return to the room. After putting the fruits down, she pulled out the chair next to Angelica and began to sit on it."Oh yeah, I just saw Ariana. Why didn't she leave quickly? Did she come here already?"Apparently Brandon's mother still didn't know that Brandon had actually remembered everything. The man didn't want to accept back Ariana who had betrayed him. Even though she had tried to change, Brandon couldn't accept her back. If it was just to forgive, Brandon would have forgiven, but if it was to return, don't expect Brando

    "Brandon, what do you mean?"With her heart pounding, Ariana approached the bed where Brandon was being treated. She was a little worried; if he remembered everything now, then what about him? Would he leave her?Angelica remained where she was, looking at Brandon and Ariana in turn. Of course, she also felt curious about what had happened to Brandon. Why did he suddenly seem to have forbidden Ariana to come? Hadn't they been so close the past few days? In fact, Angelica had seen the two of them making out in the living room."What are you doing here, Ariana? I didn't ask for your presence at all," Brandon insisted, glaring disapprovingly at the woman who was now walking towards him. I don't know why she was here all of a sudden, when their relationship had been over for quite some time."I don't understand what you're saying, Brandon. Aren't we...""We're not in a relationship anymore, Ariana. And aren't you ashamed to come here after what you did to me?" cut in Brandon quickly, glar

    Brandon's mother came out of the house with an inexplicable feeling; worry was overwhelming her. She was so worried about Brandon's condition. Why was he suddenly in the hospital? Didn't he ask permission to go to a café earlier? Then why was the call from the hospital suddenly saying that Brandon had been in an accident?Brandon's mother continued to run towards the highway, hoping to find a taxi that would take her quickly to the hospital.Angelica, who happened to be leaving the house, frowned when she saw Brandon's mother in a hurry. She looked confused at Brandon's mother. Quickly, Angelica decided to approach her, especially now that the middle-aged woman looked so hurried that it made Angelica feel a little worried."Tante, what's wrong?" asked Angelica as she tapped Brandon's mother on the shoulder.Brandon's mother instantly turned her head when she felt her shoulder being held. The middle-aged woman was almost in tears when she said it. "Brandon had an accident, Miss Angelic

    The unsuitable meeting with Brandon made Ariana feel upset, but she would still try to get Brandon's mother to approve their relationship to the level of marriage.After meeting with Brandon at the cafe, she decided to go home. She had no intention of going anywhere, as she was currently feeling upset and in an uncomfortable mood.Ariana climbed the stairs as soon as she got home, but her steps were immediately halted when suddenly someone called her. That someone was none other than Rian; surely her brother was curious about the look on her face right now."Did something happen, Ariana? You looked so happy earlier, but now your face looks dull."Rian looked suspiciously at the woman who had just arrived. Of course she could guess what had happened to the woman, considering how she had reacted before leaving, and now the dull face she showed when she had just returned indicated something had happened to her.Ariana sighed. She turned to Rian, whose hands were currently folded over his

    "Have a seat, Ariana."Brandon pulled out a chair for Ariana so that she sat across from him. Ariana nodded, feeling happy for the attention Brandon was giving her. Was he doing this because he was going to marry her soon? Imagining that made Ariana feel calm. She nodded and sat down in the chair provided by Brandon."I'm sorry if I made you wait so long, Brandon," Ariana said after sitting in the chair, looking at Brandon guiltily for making him wait. Ariana was sure that Brandon must have waited a long time, considering he was still talking to Ryan, his younger brother.Brandon just nodded and decided to sit back in his chair. After that, he called a waiter to immediately prepare food for the two of them."What would you like to order, Ariana?" asked Brandon after receiving the menu book from the waiter. He then handed one of the menu books to Ariana.Ariana immediately grabbed the menu book offered by Brandon and read all the options in the cafe. After finding the menu she wanted,

    After telling his mother everything about getting married, Brandon felt a little relieved. At least, his mother already knew that Ariana wanted to get married, it's just that his mother still didn't agree with rushing to decide to get married. Currently, Brandon was at a cafe quite close to Ariana's house. He decided to meet with her and talk about this, hoping that she would understand. After all, he himself was still not ready to take things to a more serious level. Meanwhile, Ariana, who was still at home, was wearing make-up with a smile on her face. She was happy that she would soon be married to Brandon, especially after he expressed his wishes. She was sure that Brandon would talk about their wedding at the café. Still in her room, Ariana wore quite a bit of make-up, hoping that even with the light make-up, Brandon would always be mesmerized by her. As Ariana was getting dressed, someone suddenly opened the door. She had no intention of turning around because she was too fo

    After Ariana's departure, Brandon was silent on the couch, thinking about what they had talked about this time. She already wanted to marry him, and Brandon, ready or not, had to tell his mother this. After all, they had been engaged for quite some time, which meant it was appropriate for them to take things to a more serious level."Will I eventually marry Ariana?"Brandon was pensive as he stared out the window. His mind was currently completely occupied with Ariana's request for marriage. They couldn't possibly continue like this without a more definite bond. Although it was only an engagement, they had been engaged for quite some time.Brandon sighed, a little annoyed by what he was thinking. Honestly, the man still had no plans to get married. However, he also couldn't possibly keep making promises to Ariana. She might turn and leave him, looking for someone more serious, and Brandon certainly didn't want that to happen."What should I do?"Hearing the sound of the car that had j

    "Does Angelica come here often?"It was only after Angelica's departure that Ariana asked Brandon. Of course, she was quite surprised by Angelica's sudden arrival, and she had even interrupted her moment of intimacy with Brandon. How could she just walk in without knocking first, something he had never imagined before.Brandon was a little uncomfortable with the questions Ariana had just asked about Angelica. He knew that Angelica had just made a mistake, but did Ariana have to talk about her?Brandon was silent for a moment, trying to find the right words so that Ariana wouldn't suspect him. After all, he didn't have a special relationship with Angelica either and had never had feelings for her."She's my patient, Ariana. You don't need to worry about that."Those seemed to be the right words for Brandon to say at the moment, hoping that the woman beside him would understand and not prolong the matter, despite his efforts.Hearing the words that Brandon had just said, made Ariana sil
