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

CRASH!

A loud screeching sound of tires was heard in the road.

Bam!

The car finally came to a halt. The driver was closing his eyes and didn't know whether he hit the person or not.

But he knew that his car bumped into something before he closed his eyes in horror.

Tristan just suddenly crossed the street. It was a highway so it's natural that the cars and other vehicles traversing that road were speeding.

Furthermore, that part was not a pedestrian lane. Crossing that road was a big mistake and a very stupid thing to do.

'Damn! What the hell is this guy trying to do here? Committing suicide? Crossing the road without looking left and right!' 

The driver slowly opened his eyes. He looked around but didn't see someone. He stepped out of the car to check whether the man got stuck under his car but he saw no one.

"Eh? Where did he go? I was certain that I hit someone a while ago."

He kept looking around but he didn't see any person near the area.

"Gosh, don't tell me it's a ghost!" The driver gasped at that thought.

When he glanced back at his car, his eyes widened in horror. He saw two marks in front of his car hood. It looked like two handprints.

"Oh my gosh. What is this!!! Is it really a ghost?"

The man ran back inside his car. Turning the engine on, he left the area as fast as he could.

"Damn! I will just check the dashcam later!" The man mumbled to himself.

Meanwhile, in the nearby area, two men were standing next to each other. The other man suddenly hit the other man on his head.

"Are you a fool? Why did you cross the road without checking if there was a car approaching or not?!! Do you wanna die? What will I tell Zhen-Zhen? Oh, your foolish husband died because of his stupidity! So don't cry Zhen, it's not your fault." 

FaMo ranted on Tristan who was still trying to recover from the shock. He really thought he would be hit by a car. 

Fortunately, FaMo appeared in front of him at the right time. He was in his human form when he suddenly stopped the car using his two hands, thus stopping it from hitting Tristan.

"Gosh! If I came a few seconds late then you would have been dead by now! The car is moving at a high speed. Even if the driver could manage to take the break, the impact would still be great."

"Even if you managed to stay alive, then your limbs would still be broken, beyond fixing!" FaMo continued scolding Tristan.

"Don't you know that your wife is so worried about you? What are you doing here? You are supposed to-"

Tristan didn't answer him. He just pounced on FaMo, hugging him. FaMo was caught off guard so he stopped talking when Tristan suddenly hugged him.

'What's wrong with this guy? Hugging a guy is so unmanly.' FaMo thought to himself but he just let Tristan hug him.

"Father-in-law…" Tristan called him out with his helpless voice.

"Let's go home. Zhen-Zhen is already waiting for you." FaMo told him after Tristan broke the hug.

Tristan shook his head. He was not yet ready to face his wife. He still had lots of troubling thoughts in his mind right now.

"Father-in-law, can you accompany me for a while? I still need to gather my thoughts before coming home."

FaMo furrowed his eyebrows when he heard him.

"Is there something wrong? Why did you hastily leave the house while wearing a dark expression a while ago?" FaMo asked him curiously.

He finally calmed down now. Tristan gave him a fright moments ago. If something bad happened to him, Zhen-Zhen would surely be devastated.

Tristan took a deep breath as he decided to share his troubles with FaMo. He didn't know what to do anymore. Maybe by talking to FaMo, Tristan would be able to figure out the best approach to solve his problem.

But before that, he wanted to ask FaMo about Zhen-Zhen and his doubts.

The two found a bench near the lamp post just a few meters away from the sidewalk. They decided to talk there.

"Father-in-law, before anything else, can I ask you something regarding my wife?"

"Sure, you can ask," FaMo promptly responded.

"I know she is not an ordinary human, but is it possible that she can be affected by any drugs?"

FaMo fell silent for a moment, thinking about it.

"Hmm, it can be. It depends on the dose. Remember? Even I, myself, got affected when I drank the milk mixed with drugs before. Besides, Zhen-Zhen is half-human and half-demon. Her human side can still be affected by drugs created by humans. But not entirely. There will also be a different effect on her." FaMo explained to him.

Tristan's eyes lit up. So his assumption might be correct. There was a possibility that Clifford drugged Zhen-Zhen without her knowledge.

Based on the timeline, Tristan assumed that the incident happened when he was working abroad.

"Father-in-law, can you be honest with me? Do you think Zhen-Zhen will like someone else aside from me? Like for example, Clifford."

FaMo's frown deepened upon hearing that. He raised his hand and smacked Tristan's forehead.

"Awww!"

"You are really dumb, aren't you? How can you doubt Zhen-Zhen's love for you? I don't want to admit this, but sad to say, my Zhen-Zhen has only set her eyes on you." FaMo sighed deeply with a dramatic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, father-in-law. I'm not doubting her. It's just that a scumbag was messing with my mind! He did something despicable, trying to ruin my relationship with my wife!"

Tristan's face darkened as he recalled Clifford.

Then Tristan turned to FaMo, holding and shaking his shoulders.

"Father-in-law! Someone is trying to threaten me, blackmailing me! He was forcing me to divorce my wife, or else he would reveal a scandalous picture of my wife!" Tristan told FaMo as if he was a bullied child telling his father what happened to him.

"Huh? Who is he? And what a scandalous picture?!!"
