Chased By My Demon CEO Chapter 61

Andrew, who came home early, immediately drove his car to the hospital. He felt happy when he read the message from Viona. Andrew's car stopped in front of a bakery across the hospital, he didn't want Frank or Fernando to see him because it would be too dangerous for Viona if it happened.
Accompanied by his favorite Bon Jovi songs, Andrew enjoyed a cup of his dark coffee while waiting for Viona to arrive in the car.
KNOCK
KNOCK
There were knocking sounds on the windshield that made Andrew snapped out of his reverie.
"Hiiii," said Viona cheerfully when Andrew lowered his windshield.
"Looks like there will be a celebration soon," Andrew said quickly as he started the engine.
Viona smiled broadly at Andrew's words. She immediately turned towards the driver's side door where she sat.
"You know, I feel so relieved, Andrew," said Viona as soon as she sat in the passenger seat in the car.
"Really? Tell me everything about it, but it might be better if we do it somewhere else since I'm afraid your two psychopathic fans will see us here," said Andrew as he drove his car leaving the parking lot.
Viona nodded her head excitedly. She felt as if the burden on her shoulders had been lifted off a bit even though she only tried to speak more bravely toward Professor Frank. But at least she felt relieved to be able to say something like that to Professor Frank.
She already did what Andrew suggested, that way she wouldn't be considered as a weak person by Professor Frank.
"So you're going to stay in your current apartment?" Andrew asked in shock after hearing Viona's decision.
"Yes, I can't keep moving, Andrew, I'm not a nomad," Viona replied casually.
"Don't worry, I can take care of myself Andrew" said Viona quickly when she saw Andrew was going to speak.
"Okay, I support whatever you decide, Vio. As long as you feel comfortable with it," said Andrew in defeat.
Viona nodded her head slowly. This morning after the code of ethics hearing, Viona was asked about her official apartment and Viona returned the apartment to the hospital management because she didn't want to be considered as a doctor who benefitted from the hospital's facility. That was why she chose to stay in her apartment even though Frank knew where her apartment was.

Andrew invited Viona to go to the cinema because Viona's favorite film was being screened. She was a big fan of fairy tale movies since she was a child. It was not surprising to see her watching all of Disney movies when they were being screened at the cinema.
"Are you serious, Vio?" Andrew asked repeatedly while queuing at ticket purchases.
"Yes, I am. I want to know what would happen if fairies turn into evil when they get hurt," Viona answered without guilt.
Andrew could only take a deep breath without intending to argue with Viona. He felt slightly uncomfortable when he had to queue at the cashier to buy tickets for the Maleficent produced by Walt Disney.
Andrew felt uncomfortable because he was the only man in the line among the women who brought their children to the cinema while waiting in line to buy the ticket. He felt as if he could not refuse Viona's wish.
After waiting in line for more than five minutes, Viona finally managed to buy two tickets for the movie Maleficent that she had been waiting for.
Her eyes sparkled as she stared at the tickets, making Andrew blush. Andrew saw the other side of Viona today, a serious doctor looked so much different from the Viona in front of him today.
"Keep being like this Vio," said Andrew as he walked into the cinema studio room.
"What are you talking about? What do you mean Andrew?" Viona shouted as she chased Andrew into the studio.
"Shhh, don't be noisy, we are already in the cinema room," Andrew whispered softly to Viona who managed to catch some of his shirt.
"The movie hasn't started yet, Andrew. Don't overreact," Viona grumbled.
Andrew just laughed and then walked up the stairs to their chairs which were in the fourth row from the top. Viona trailed behind Andrew happily because she couldn't wait to watch the film she used to watch as a child.
Viona was curious how it would be if the film was made in a live-action version. Viona quickly sat between Andrew and a small girl who was sitting next to her mother.
Soon the cinema lights were turned off and the large screen before them started flashing and showing some commercials before the main film started. When the film started, Viona clapped her hands together with the other viewers because she was amazed by the visuals of the film.

While watching the film, Andrew actually noticed Viona's funny behavior. He did not expect to see Viona would behave like this.
Andrew's smile grew even wider when he saw Viona got carried away with emotion when watching the film. Viona even had some tears in her eyes when there was a sad scene, it amazed Andrew somehow.
"You're so funny, Vio," Andrew said when the film was over and the lights in the studio were turned on.
"It's over! The movie is so good!!!" Viona shouted happily, she did not hear Andrew's words because she was still carried away by the atmosphere of the film.
"Do you think it's a good movie, Andrew?" asked Viona suddenly to Andrew, who had been just admiring Viona in silence, without even understanding the story of the film they had just watched.
"Huh? Oh yeah, the film is cool, it's really cool!! I like Jennifer Lawrence's acting," Andrew stuttered.
Viona's expression immediately changed when she heard Andrew's words. Her eyes looked like they were about to swallow Andrew who was talking nonsense.
"Jenifer Lawrence!! We were not watching Hunger Games, Andrew! You are such a turn-off!!" shouted Viona as she hit Andrew's chest and walked quickly leaving Andrew who looked shocked.
Andrew who was standing confused saw Viona leaving him, suddenly a little girl who sat next to Viona pulled the jacket that Andrew was wearing. Andrew also lowered his body towards the little girl.
"This film is starred by Angelina Jolie, not Jennifer Lawrence," the little girl whispered slowly.
"Oh my God!!! What have I done? I forgot about it. Thank you for telling me, beautiful girl, I owe you ... bye," shouted Andrew as he ran after Viona.
The little girl and her mother laughed at Andrew's desperate behavior, they then left because the film was over. Andrew walked to where Viona was sitting while enjoying popcorn that had not been touched while watching the film earlier.
"Are you mad at me, Vio?" asked Andrew, sitting in front of Viona.
"Nope!!" Viona answered without looking at Andrew.
"I'm sorry, actually I don't like kind of movie, Vio. That's why I don't really watch them," Andrew said softly.
Viona lifted her face and looked at Andrew who was sitting in front of her, she felt a little guilty because she was actually the one who forced Andrew to watch it earlier. Viona felt that this was not Andrew's fault.
"If you don't like it, why do you want to come with me today?" asked Viona flatly.
"I don't want to disappoint you, Vio" Andrew replied quickly while smiling.
THUMP
THUMP
Viona's heartbeat felt faster when she heard Andrew's words, she then immediately stood up because she was embarrassed to leave Andrew alone.
"Let's go home!!" shouted Viona from outside the cinema to Andrew.
Andrew also walked with half running steps towards Viona, they then walked towards the car but Viona's steps stopped when she saw a Korean food seller.
She then stopped and ordered a portion of tteokbokki, a very popular Korean snack. Viona took a fork and fed it to Andrew who looked like he didn't like the rice cake.
"Open your mouth and say... aahhh...." said Viona asking Andrew to open his mouth.
"I don't like the taste of it, Vio," said Andrew, closing his mouth.
"Open your mouth or I'll get mad at you," said Viona curtly.
Hearing Viona's threat, Andrew finally gave in, he then forced to eat the rice cake to make Viona happy. Seeing Andrew eating the rice cake she bought, Viona laughed happily. She then walked towards the crowd in front of her. It turned out that there was a Korean festival in the mall they were visiting.
Unbeknownst to Viona, there were pair of eyes that kept following her behavior and looked angry from the car. The man then asked the driver to return to his mansion since he wanted to plan something else to be executed so he could get Viona.
