Lahat ng Kabanata ng Boyfriend for Sale: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Alex made it a point to wake up before Shantal did so that he would no longer have to explain himself once she caught him dozing off.After all, it would really be weird to see a robot that snored in his sleep.When morning came and the first sunlight broke into the horizon, Alex sat next to Shantal's bed. He watched her sleep soundly like a baby.They hold that position for who knew how long; and it was only when the sun rays penetrated the blinds of the window did Alex made an attempt to move and change his position.Shantal on the other hand stirred on her bed, but still did not wake up. When Alex checked on her, he saw her sleeping like an angel. Her fair skin looked supple under the sunlight.Likewise, Alex moved closer to her and made use of his hand to shield Shantal's eyes from the light.Meanwhile, the longer he stared at Shantal Alex felt more drawn to her face. For some unknown reason, he felt compelled to look at her closely and

Shantal did not want to entertain those kinds of thoughts so to stop herself from having silly thoughts about her robot, she deliberately changed the topic."Don't you need to 'sleep' as well?"Even as a robot, Shantal reckoned that a device like Alex was bound to get drained at some point.After all, even mobile phones needed to go to sleep whenever they were unused, so as to save as much energy as possible. So she wondered if her Android Partner happened to work the same way."Um... I don't need 'sleep', I just need to recharge my batteries and that is every three days."Of course, Alex made up that lie on the spot. At the same time, he saw that as an opportunity to give some leeway to himself.He banked on the possibility that Shantal would opt to send him back to the facility in the meantime since she most likely did not have a charger of her own yet; and just like he expected, Shantal was flustered when she heard about his char

"Here is your green tea, made with love."Alex's voice boomed inside when he walked into the room again."How could you be so quick?"Shantal, on the other hand, could not help but get quizzical when she saw Alex returned shortly after he left. Apparently, the other party did not even take a minute before he got back with a cup of tea.However, Alex refused to answer her question directly and instead flashed her a lopsided grin."You could expect nothing less from me."He declared as though that was only what to be expected from him."I am Alex, at your service. Model 1096; Android Partner version 2.0."He added and injected as much enthusiasm in his voice.But truthfully speaking, the only reason why he was able to return within such a short period of time was because of Butler John.If it was not for him, who knew how long it would take Alex to bring Shantal her tea? After all, it was not like the other party kn

 Meanwhile, back at Shantal's place..."Done."Shantal heard Alex say that before he cast her a look as though asking her,'Are we good?'"Have you gone nuts, Alex? How could you be so careless?!"Harold's voice echoed inside Alex's ears as soon as the system went back. It was clear of all ears to hear that he was not impressed by how Alex acted, and his disappointment was shared by his team."Now I am more convinced, that lad is indeed foolish."Samantha commented with a disapproving undertone.When they saw what Alex did, they all rose to their feet and shouted. 'No!' in unison. But of course, their warning came too late.The damage had been done and by how crude Alex acted in front of Shantal, they believe that there was no way that she would not start doubting his identity.After all, there was no way anyone would believe that an AI robot could act so foolishly like that."It's ove

"You----"Shantal trailed off as she observed Alex with squinted eyes. She pointed the pen that she was using towards Alex and bit her lower lip."--- You keep on disappointing me. Poor coordination skills, I will deduct a point for that.""Look what you have done! We almost got caught, and 1096 got a minus point!"Rico berated Harold as soon as they heard Shantal's evaluation. For a second, they thought that the other party already found out about the truth. But thankfully though, she hasn't yet.With her face still sour with disappointment, Shantal gave the rest of the assessment a break.She felt her stomach growling so she decided to look for something to eat. Shantal opened her double door fridge, wide enough to allow her and Alex to fit inside it. Likewise, when Alex tried to sneak a peek at what her master has on her fridge, he almost dropped his lower jaw on the floor.Fresh seafood along with packs after packs of different ki
