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

"Stop brainwashing my wife, Clifford Sy!"

Tristan\'s stern angry voice echoed in the mini-forest. It was so loud and thunderous enough to catch the attention of the three people there.

Zhen-Zhen, Clifford, and Sophia averted their gaze in that direction of that voice. Tristan arrived with a dark expression on his face. His fingers were folded to a fist as if he was ready to punch someone.

He was fast approaching them with long strides. Clifford met Tristan\'s bloodshot eyes with his glaring eyes. They were having a staring contest. It seemed that they were already fighting each other with just one gaze.

After knowing that Clifford visited the school to talk to Zhen-Zhen, Tristan sped up from Heavenly Star Enterprise going to the University of Imperial Knight. He was rushing to see Zhen-Zhen.

He was furious. He already warned Clifford not to involve his wife with their conflict but he didn\'t listen. Tristan left the company in a hurry but Matthew was still able to catch up with him, following him inside his car.

Matthew didn\'t know what\'s going on since Tristan snatched his phone even before he could read Sophia\'s message. He was distracted by the thought of Sophia messaging him first.

To know the situation, Matthew just tagged along with him. He regretted it as Tristan\'s driving gave him quite a scare. He was speeding so much that he thought they would bump the cars in front of them.

He even asked him to slow down but Tristan just ignored him. Matthew could finally relax when they reached their destination. Seeing that they parked inside the University of Imperial Knight, Matthew realized that this was related to Zhen-Zhen.

Tristan was still holding Matthew\'s phone so he messaged Sophia asking her their location. Upon receiving her response, Tristan ran as fast as he could just to reach the mini-forest, not minding the students who were puzzled after seeing him running inside the campus.

Tristan could almost feel his blood boiling in his veins upon seeing Clifford in front of Zhen-Zhen and hearing his last words.

[ "Lillie, are you already blinded by your love for Tristan? Why can\'t you see the truth? He is not a good guy. It\'s still not too late, Lillie. I just don\'t want you to get hurt in the end." ]

He never insisted to Zhen-Zhen that he was a good guy because he knew the fact that he was not. He already admitted that to himself. Clifford was not wrong about that.

But the thought of Clifford just saying this for Zhen-Zhen to hate him, that\'s the thing he couldn\'t tolerate. Clifford sounded like he was urging her to break up with him.

\'How dare he say that I will hurt my wife in the end?! I will never ever do that. I will never betray her. I will only love her.\'

"I\'m just stating a fact here, Mr. Davis. I\'m not brainwashing your wife." Clifford responded to Tristan with a sneer.

Zhen-Zhen and Sophia exchanged glances with one another. They were worried that Clifford and Tristan might start fighting and punching each other in front of them.

Tristan immediately walked toward Zhen-Zhen, pulling her away from Clifford as he stepped in the middle.

"Tristan…" Zhen-Zhen called him out with her anxious voice. She held his arm, trying to calm him down.

"I told you to Stay. Away. From. My. Wife! How many times should I repeat this to you? Must you involve her in our mess? Are you trying to ruin our relationship just to get back at me because of your failed relationship in the past?" Tristan was not backing down, confronting Clifford.

He didn\'t want to argue with Clifford in front of Zhen-Zhen and Sophia but he couldn\'t control his emotion right now.

"You are truly shameless, Tristan, for asking me that. Aside from being a jerk, are you now trying to be a controlling husband who is forbidding his wife to see and talk to her friend just because he is truly jealous and scared? What coward!" Clifford spat back at him, provoking Tristan further.

Tristan had the urge to punch Clifford\'s face right now.

"Hey! Stop this, you two! You are scaring the girls."

Sophia heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Matthew. She felt grateful he arrived, or else, no one could stop Tristan and Clifford once they started throwing punches at each other. Little did she know, Zhen-Zhen could do it by herself if she would use her extraordinary strength.

When Tristan and Clifford heard that, they reflexively glanced at Zhen-Zhen who was gripping Tristan\'s hand tightly. They could see that she was feeling anxious right now. She didn\'t like seeing them fighting and arguing.

Tristan: "I\'m sorry."

Clifford: "I\'m sorry."

Both of them mumbled in unison while looking at Zhen-Zhen apologetically.

Zhen-Zhen felt like crying right now. She somehow felt that Clifford was a good man too but he was just blinded by his hatred towards Tristan. She could only wish that the two men could reconcile in the future and forget about the past.

"I hope next time you can talk this out in a calm and peaceful manner." Those were the only words Zhen-Zhen could utter.

Tristan sighed deeply, realizing his mistake. He didn\'t want to stress her out over this thing. It\'s not good for her and their baby.

Clifford also felt like he went over the board this time. He couldn\'t help it. To avoid further arguments with Tristan, he just decided to leave.

He just took three steps when Tristan called him out.

"Wait…"

Tristan softly asked Zhen-Zhen to release his hand as he just had something to tell Clifford before he could leave. Zhen-Zhen complied with his request and nodded at him.

Tristan walked over to approach Clifford. On the other hand, Clifford knitted his brows into a frown, wondering why Tristan stopped him.

"To tell you the truth… Nothing happened between me and your ex-fiancé," Tristan informed him in a low voice so that only him and Clifford could hear it.

Clifford arched his eyebrow in disbelief. "Don\'t lie, Tristan. I saw it with my own eyes… you and Olive kissing and making out in the bar."

"But we didn\'t do it beyond that. We didn\'t have sex."

Clifford squinted his eyes at him. "Do you think I will believe that? And so what if you didn\'t? You couldn\'t change the fact that the two of you cheated on me." After saying that, Clifford turned to leave, clenching his fists.

Tristan heaved another deep long sigh. "Sigh, I think I have to face it and explain everything to my wife before another misunderstanding between us will arise."

Matthew and Sophia felt relieved now that the heavy tension was over. They watched Tristan and Zhen-Zhen quietly, waiting for any of them to say something.

Tristan walked back to Zhen-Zhen\'s spot. He held her shoulders, looking straight into her eyes.

"I don\'t know what Clifford had told you. But can you let me explain everything? Let\'s talk about this further at home." Tristan had finally calmed down. His expression turned gentle now compared to before.

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head in agreement. "Okay. Let\'s talk at home."
