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

"Can't you be more careful? Are you blind?!" Clifford lashed out at the girl who bumped into him. His eyes were bloodshot as he watched his suit tainted by red wine.

This was what his assistant was afraid of. Clifford had no regard whether it's a man or a woman. If he was mad and pissed off he would scold you even in front of the public.

He felt sorry for the girl in front of Clifford right now. He wanted to ask his boss to take it easy and to calm down but he was afraid of him. He looked scary and frightening.

Because of this commotion, they already caught the attention of some people inside the restaurant. Clifford didn't restrain himself from raising his voice.

"This is not a playground for you to run just like that. Why are you in a hurry? Can't you pay more attention to your surroundings?"

Zhen-Zhen was about to apologize when she heard his voice again. He sounded angry and irritated.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to ruin your suit. I am trying to catch up with my friend, that's why I am in a hurry. I'm really sorry. Please forgive my carelessness." 

Zhen-Zhen was bowing her head several times as she apologized to Clifford. After that, Zhen-Zhen tried her best to look up and see the face of the man who was very mad at this moment.

She was consumed by guilt. But it was not entirely her fault since Clifford just suddenly stood up, blocking her way. Even Clifford didn't see her coming his way.

Meanwhile, Clifford went still as soon as he looked into her blue eyes. He never expected that the person who bumped him to be this beautiful and angelic.

He saw the worried and apologetic look on her face and for some unknown reasons, he felt the need to apologize to her for raising his voice at her.

Zhen-Zhen always had this kind of effect on people. She could easily win people's hearts with her charm. Clifford was no exception. He wanted to comfort her and took back his mean words a while ago.

Just a while ago, he was planning to scold her more and to vent all his frustrations to her. But he forgot what he was about to do after seeing her face.

He couldn't understand why but he couldn't bring himself to be mad at this woman. He forgot when was the last time he looked into a woman's face for long. He was just silently staring at her, admiring her breathtaking beauty and lovely features.

After a while, Clifford snapped back to reality. 'What the hell am I doing this? I hate women.' he scolded himself inwardly, reminding himself how much he hated women.

The spectators were also waiting for Clifford's response. Zhen-Zhen already apologized but he just remained silent. 

His assistant was also feeling anxious. He was afraid that his boss wouldn't let this slide by just one apology from her. He could be ruthless as he wanted and no one could stop him.

The assistant decided to speak up to pacify his angry boss. He hoped that his cold boss would not make more scenes here and just talked with her privately.

But before he could say his first word, they heard Clifford's voice.

"I'm sorry," Clifford said, also surprised that he apologized to her.

Clifford's Assistant: "..."

'What? Did I hear it right? Clifford Sy just apologized and said the word 'I'm sorry'? Those words are something he hardly says to people, especially women. Is my boss being possessed by someone? It seems like someone else is in control of his speech.' the assistant pondered to himself. He was still in disbelief.

Even the people who were watching them didn't expect Clifford to apologize as well. He looked like someone who was ready to eat her alive after lashing out. Then suddenly, he softly apologized to her, though his expression was still unreadable.

Zhen-Zhen, on the other hand, looked at him in confusion. She didn't know why he was apologizing to her.

As if Clifford had read her mind, he decided to explain to her.

"I'm sorry for raising my voice. I shouldn't have done that. It's just that I'm not in a good mood today because of someone. And this happened so I felt really irritated."

Clifford couldn't believe that he was sharing his feelings with a stranger.

Zhen-Zhen nodded her head, giving him a faint smile.

"Oh, no need to apologize for that. I understand. It's me who caused you trouble. I ruined your suit. I'm really sorry about that. What can I do to make it up for my mistake?" Zhen-Zhen said, still feeling guilty as she watched the stained spot of his suit.

Clifford paused for a moment. He was thinking about what to reply to her. His assistant was also anticipating whether his boss would be forgiving this time. 

Besides, they were inside a mall and they could just buy a new suit for him to change into before his meeting with the Mall owner.

Clifford's lips curled up into a half-smile for several seconds before it disappeared right away. Zhen-Zhen and his assistant failed to see it. 

Clifford seldom smiled and he just did it today. Unfortunately, no one saw it. He looked more handsome and gorgeous when he was smiling just like how he used to be.

After his long silence, Clifford spoke up.

"If you are really sorry about this then why don't you buy me a new suit? I have a meeting today and I can't go to that meeting while looking like this."

Clifford said those words with a blank expression but he couldn't hide the light flashing in those brown eyes as he waited for Zhen-Zhen's reply. He was hoping that she would say yes.

He was surprised as to why he was doing this. He could ask his assistant to buy a new suit for him but he still asked this girl to buy it for him. Maybe he just wanted to spend more time with her.

Zhen-Zhen bit her lower lip. She was contemplating what to do. She needed to catch up with Sophia and Marcus. But she couldn't leave this man without compensating him for her carelessness.

"Hmm, okay. Let's do that. I will buy a new suit for you," Zhen-Zhen finally agreed with his suggestion.

Clifford tried his best to fight the urge to smile when he heard her response. He didn't understand himself today. He was acting weird. 

He was not usually like this with other women. He's the kind of guy who would try his best to avoid interacting with women.

But here he was, asking a girl to buy him a new suit just to be with her. Not only him, but also his assistant was astounded by his strange behavior today.

'Eh, what's with my boss today? Was his mind suddenly affected by the food he ate here?'

 ( Author: Dude, it's not the food… but Zhen-Zhen's charm. Lol )

Clifford and Zhen-Zhen decided to leave the restaurant to buy him a new suit. Clifford's assistant paid the bills first before following them.

When Clifford noticed his assistant behind him, he stopped and turned to face him.

"Stay here. Don't follow me," Clifford commanded him with his stern voice. After saying that, he turned around to follow Zhen-Zhen.

Assistant: "..."
