"Do you know each other personally?" Clifford asked the two men.

Brandon: "Yes…"

Andrew: "Yes…"

Both men answered Clifford in unison. After that, the three men fell silent.

Andrew didn\'t expect that upon opening that door he would meet Brandon and Alveena\'s brother, Clifford.

The three men stayed rooted in their respective spots just checking each other out. Alveena just watched the three men while rubbing her temples.

\'Ah! Brandon and Clifford, why did you have to come at the wrong time, ruining my moment with my man?\' Alveena lamented to herself.

Brandon was about to leave and Clifford was there to send him off. But Brandon decided to drop by Alveena\'s office first before leaving the Sy Corp. He wanted to see her.

Who would have thought that they would see the man whom they were talking about a while ago?

Clifford frowned, wondering what Andrew Davis was doing there inside Alveena\'s office.

After assessing Andrew, Clifford averted his gaze to Alveena, giving her a questioning look.

Andrew, on the other hand, didn\'t know how he would act in front of Clifford. He knew that Clifford had a grudge against his brother, Tristan. He had no idea if Clifford didn\'t like him as well.

Andrew was wondering if being Tristan\'s brother would affect his relationship with his future brother-in-law, Clifford.

No matter what, he had to get along with Clifford for Alveena\'s sake. He had to make the Sy Family accept him. He was aware that they were rooting for Brandon to become Alveena\'s husband.

\'I have to impress them and to get on their good sides,\' Andrew thought to himself.

"Hey, how long are you planning to stand at my door? Are you my guards?" Alveena had finally spoken, catching the attention of the three men.

Brandon was the first one who reacted. He let out a soft chuckle before pushing Clifford in. After that, Brandon hooked his arms around Clifford\'s shoulder and Andrew\'s shoulder, leading them toward the sofa inside Alveena\'s room.

Strangely, Clifford and Andrew just followed Brandon obediently until they reached the sofa. Alveena just watched them in amusement.

Clifford and Andrew felt a little bit awkward. Only Brandon was relaxed in his seat. He was sitting in the middle of Clifford and Andrew.

He met Alveena\'s gaze. Brandon smiled at her meaningfully as if he was saying, \'What are you waiting for? Will you not introduce your boyfriend to your brother?\'

Alveena just shot Brandon a sharp glare before sitting on the opposite chair, facing the three men.

Alveena and Andrew hadn\'t talked about it yet. Andrew meeting Clifford today was just an accident. She wasn\'t sure whether Andrew would like to be introduced as her boyfriend.

\'Is he ready for this? I wonder how my brother will react. I am more worried about Andrew meeting my brother than Andrew meeting my parents.\'

Alveena sighed deeply at that thought.

Brandon cleared his throat to break the awkward silence.

"Ahem, Alvee, are you not going to introduce them to each other? Well, this is just for formality because I know that they are familiar with each other," Brandon said, moving his gaze from Alveena to Andrew and Clifford.

Brandon was also curious whether Andrew would admit his relationship with Alveena in front of Clifford.

Clifford maintained his poker face, also waiting for Alveena to say something.

Alveena had the urge to punch Brandon\'s mouth and rip the smile off his face. He was clearly teasing her.

Alveena took another deep breath before introducing the two men.

"Andrew, this is my brother, Clifford Sy, the CEO of Sy Corp."

"Brother, this is Andrew Davis, my former boss, the Finance Director of the Heavenly Star Enterprise."

Alveena quickly finished her words, not looking at Andrew\'s eyes. Both Brandon and Andrew frowned when Alveena was done introducing Clifford and Andrew to each other.

Andrew turned to his side, extending his hand in front of Clifford. He didn\'t mind even though Brandon was in the middle of them.

Brandon had to lean his back on the backrest of the sofa so that he would not get in the way once the two men would do a handshake.

Clifford glanced at Andrew\'s hand for several seconds before accepting it.

Andrew smiled at him and said, "Nice meeting you, Brother-in-law! Alveena forgot to tell you that I am her boyfriend."

Clifford: "..."

Alveena: 0_0

Brandon: "Cough! Cough!"

Brandon choked on his saliva after hearing Andrew calling Clifford brother-in-law.

\'Damn! I didn\'t expect Andrew to be straightforward!\'

Brandon turned to Clifford, wondering how Clifford would react. He tried his best to hold his laughter after seeing the stunned expression of Clifford. He was too funny to look at with that kind of look.

\'Hahaha! Clifford is not prepared to hear this. His silly reaction… haha it\'s too priceless!\'

Brandon had to cover his mouth to stop himself from laughing out loud.

Meanwhile, Alveena looked dagger at Brandon, signaling him to go out since she wanted to talk to Andrew and Clifford alone.

Getting her message, Brandon stood up, excusing himself.

"Oh, I just remember. I have an important meeting today. I should leave now."

Brandon said goodbye to them. He had to raise the connected hands of Andrew and Clifford and duck his head to pass through without breaking the handshake.

He waved at Alveena one last time before getting out of her office. When Brandon was already outside, they heard him laughing.

Alveena just facepalmed because of Brandon\'s laughter.

,m "How could he still laugh at this situation?" She murmured to herself, bringing her attention back to her brother and boyfriend.

Clifford was still in shock. After he recovered, he let go of Andrew\'s hand and glanced in Alveena\'s direction.

"What is the meaning of this?" He asked her in disbelief.

"Is it true? Since when?" he added.

Alveena bobbed her head to confirm it.

"Yes, it\'s true! We became official during my engagement party with Brandon," Alveena answered her brother truthfully.

"WHAT?"

Clifford\'s eyes widened in surprise. He got another shocking revelation. Then he realized why Brandon asked him about Andrew.

It made sense to him now. He assumed Brandon already knew the relationship between Alveena and Andrew.

\'That punk! How dare he not mention anything to me? Hypothetical Question my ass?! It turned out his questions were based on facts!\' Clifford complained to himself. He wanted to punch Brandon.

He wouldn\'t be this surprised if Brandon gave him a heads-up!

"Forgive me, CEO Sy for giving you a great shock. It was not my intention. It just so happened that I visited Alveena today and we accidentally met each other," Andrew said. He was back to talking formally to Clifford after dropping a bomb.

Both Alveena and Clifford squinted their eyes at Andrew. A while ago, he just talked casually, calling Clifford his brother-in-law. And now, he was talking to Clifford in a formal tone, calling him CEO Sy.

"Eh, why are you both looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?" Andrew asked the siblings.

Alveena: "Yes!"

Clifford: "Yes!"

Andrew: 0_0  "???"

Alveena stood up right away and moved closer to Andrew. She grabbed his hand and pulled him up. They were now standing side by side in front of Clifford with their entangled hands.

Alveena raised their hands and showed her engagement ring to Clifford.

"Brother, I don\'t care if you will not approve of my relationship with Andrew. I am already an adult and I have the right to choose the man with whom I want to spend my life."

"Nothing can change my mind. I will fight for my love. So don\'t try to meddle with my relationship. Just focus on your own relationship. Find a woman! And don\'t you ever try breaking us apart!"

Alveena spoke to Clifford spontaneously, not giving him a chance to speak badly at Andrew.

"Don\'t hinder my happy ending. Just find your own happy ending!" Alveena added.

Clifford: 0_0

\'What is she so worked up about? I haven\'t said anything yet? Why is she suddenly getting mad at me and nagging me? When did I say that I will meddle with her relationship?\'

Clifford stood up with a dark expression on his face.

"How dare you speak to your brother like that in front of your important visitor? Do I look like a villain here?" Clifford spat back at her in annoyance.

"Can\'t you act like a delicate woman and a refined lady in front of your boyfriend? Why do you have to be a nagger sister?"

Andrew: "..."

Alveena: "..."

They didn\'t know the meaning of Clifford\'s words. Was he okay about this? Was he approved of their relationship?

"Who cares if I am a nagger! Andrew loves me for who I am! He loves my talkative sides too! Who are you to tell me to act and pretend in front of my boyfriend?!"

"Heh, No wonder you are still single!" Alveena talked back to her brother.

Andrew darted his gaze back and forth between Alveena and Clifford. He didn\'t know what to do to stop them from fighting.

\'Are they always like this? Arguing with each other?\'
