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

Tristan was surprised to hear that from Andrew.

"My wife talked to you? When?" Tristan asked Andrew exasperatedly.

"Yes, we've talked during the engagement party when we were both looking for you and Hannah. She apologized and explained everything to me." Andrew's eyes were glowing with delight as he recalled his conversation with Zhen-Zhen.

"She even defended you. She requested me not to hate you and she took the blame. She said it was not your fault. She just misunderstood you."

Tristan was tongue-tied. He had no idea that Zhen-Zhen did that. She never mentioned anything to him.

He appreciated her for defending him to Andrew although he didn't ask her to do that. She was really thoughtful.

However, thinking that Andrew and Zhen-Zhen were talking alone he couldn't help but feel jealous. 

He could see from Andrew's eyes that he was happy whenever he would mention his wife. Should he feel glad or not?

After his silence, Tristan spoke again. "Thank you for accepting my apology. But don't get the wrong idea. I didn't ask my wife to do that."

"I know," Andrew responded matter-of-factly. The smile on Andrew's face never left.

Tristan lifted his eyebrows and said, "It seems like you enjoyed talking to my wife."

"Yes, talking to her is so fun. She's so honest," Andrew didn't deny it.

"Why? Are you jealous brother?" Andrew said, teasing Tristan once again.

"Of course not!" Tristan reacted quickly, denying Andrew's accusation.

Andrew let out another soft chuckle and just shrugged his shoulders. He stopped teasing Tristan. He was afraid that his brother would be annoyed with him.

"By the way, congratulations on your marriage," Andrew greeted Tristan.

Tristan nodded his head and simply said, "Thank you."

"Congrats on your engagement too." Tristan greeted him back.

Andrew just gave him a faint smile. After that, the living room became silent once again. But unlike before, the awkwardness was gone.

Little did they know, the interaction of the two brothers in the living room was being watched by their grandfather. Grandpa Lu was now grinning from ear to ear.

'It looks like my two grandsons already reconciled with each other. The issue that happened in Oceaniz City was now fixed. I hope their relationship with each other will improve.' Grandpa Lu was looking forward to the coming days.

'Both of them found their woman to love. They shouldn't compete anymore for the love and affection of one woman. Tristan has Lillie, Andrew has Hannah. I wish them both happiness.'

Meanwhile, Isabelle, Zhen-Zhen, and FaMo arrived in the market. They were also accompanied by one maid and one butler to assist them in buying the ingredients needed for tonight's dinner.

Zhen-Zhen was carrying FaMo in her hands as they followed Isabelle. Her mother-in-law taught her how to choose the best meat and fresh seafood to buy.

She gave Zhen-Zhen more tips about buying the right ingredients for the food that they were about to cook. Zhen-Zhen listened to her attentively, remembering everything that Isabelle said to her.

She would know what to do next time. Zhen-Zhen would try to cook for Tristan. She would also ask Tristan to accompany her in the market once in a while.

Zhen-Zhen thought that shopping together would be fun. Isabelle had told Zhen-Zhen about the food that Tristan liked to eat more often.

"Lillie, did you hear about the saying, the way to man's heart is through his stomach," Isabelle shared with her.

"No, Mom. It's my first time hearing it. What is the meaning of that?" Zhen-Zhen asked her inquisitively.

Isabelle and the maid who was following them giggled when they heard Zhen-Zhen's innocent question. It was a famous quote so they didn't expect that Lillie didn't know it.

"They said many women have won a man's love by cooking delicious meals for him. A woman fed his stomach and found love in his heart," Isabelle explained to Zhen-Zhen.

"Is that true, Mom? Then I must cook food for Tristan every day to win his heart."

Isabelle and the maid exchanged glances with each other. Both of them were thinking about the same thing.

'Does she really need to do it? It looks like she already won Tristan's heart.'

Isabelle just nodded at her with a gentle smile on her face. They continued roaming around the supermarket when FaMo suddenly felt something.

'What is that? I can sense another strong magical force nearby.' FaMo was alerted once again. His eyes peered at their surroundings, searching for the source of that strong force.

There were lots of people inside. The place was crowded. FaMo was having a hard time tracking it. But he could still feel it.

He wanted to inform Zhen-Zhen but she was busy talking and helping Isabelle. FaMo didn't want Zhen-Zhen to worry so instead of telling her, he asked her a different thing.

'Zhen-Zhen, can you release me for a while. I'm just gonna go somewhere.' FaMo requested.

'Hmm, alright. Just don't go far away from us. You should come back before we finish buying things here.' Zhen-Zhen reminded him.

'Yes, I understand,' FaMo reassured her.

'Contact me through our mind link if anything happens. Understand?'

'Yes, I will do that. I promise.'

After hearing that, Zhen-Zhen simply put down FaMo while Isabelle and the maid were busy choosing vegetables. FaMo immediately left them to trace the strong force. He wanted to know where that force was coming from.

In the area nearby, some bystanders couldn't help but look at someone strangely. A person was walking on the busy street wearing a black robe. His get-up was different from the normal person.

They thought he was an actor who was strolling around the streets after taking a break from their taping. They thought he was wearing his costume. His clothes looked like ancient clothes in those historical fantasy dramas.

He was wearing a serious expression on his face. He was assessing his surroundings. It was different from the world where he came from.

Soon, the man in a Black robe stopped and asked one bystander in the street.

"Where am I? What do you call this place?"

The bystander looked at him weirdly and confusedly, but in the end, he answered him. "You are in the City of Empire. Are you lost?"
