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

"Mheera…?"

Liam was utterly astounded the moment he saw her face. He assumed that a guardian warrior was helping Hannah, but he didn't expect it to be Mheera.

"W-Why… why are you here?" Liam asked her with disbelief.

Mheera, on the other hand, was looking at Liam with her teary eyes. Finally, she found him!

She wanted to hug him but she knew she was not allowed to do that. In the end, Mheera kneeled in front of him to show her respect.

"Guardian lord, I'm so glad to finally find you. I've been searching for you for a while now."

"Mheera, stand up. You don't have to greet me like this."

Mheera complied with his request. She gazed at him with eyes filled with longing. She was overjoyed to see him safe and sound.

"What happened? Why did you come here? I gave you the task to choose a new leader and guide him while I am not around.  Why did you follow me here?" Liam questioned her.

Mheera fell silent. She couldn't tell him that she followed him because she was worried about him and she missed him.

"You are the head shaman, Mheera. You are not supposed to follow me here. You should have sent someone, instead of coming here," Liam said, lecturing Mheera. 

His expression showed that he didn't like what she did. He was a little bit disappointed by her decision.

Mheera gazed down. She couldn't bear to see the disappointed look in Liam's eyes.

"Forgive me, my lord. But I did send someone to follow you here. He met the demon god's daughter. They had an encounter. However, he was defeated."

"I followed you here since I thought you would need my help since the demon god's daughter had become stronger," Mheera explained to Liam.

Liam's eyebrows were drawn together. He had no idea that Zhen-Zhen already met a guardian warrior. He was also surprised that a fight happened between the two.

"What happened to the guardian warrior who fought the demon god's daughter?" Liam asked her worriedly.

"He was injured. But fortunately, he managed to stay alive. He was sent back to our world by the demon god's daughter. As you expected, she could create a portal if ever she wanted to go back to our world to bring chaos again."

Liam clenched his fists. He knew that Zhen-Zhen would not want to return to their world because of Tristan. She would rather live here peacefully than to bring chaos to their world.

Liam wanted to tell Mheera that they didn't need to kill the demon god's daughter anymore. But he was not sure if Mheera would listen to him.

Liam became quiet, just watching Mheera with his complicated emotions.

Mheera was the one who was helping Hannah. She even asked her to kill Zhen-Zhen. 

He thought Zhen-Zhen would hate them more once she learned that a guardian warrior helped Hannah, causing her baby to die.

Liam didn't know what to do with Zhen-Zhen. She might start investigating where Hannah got those potions. It would not be good if Zhen-Zhen would fight Mheera.

'Should I tell Mheera that I already killed the demon god's daughter? But if I say that, she will ask me to go back to our world. Should I tell her that the demon god's daughter is  not a threat anymore or should I make her believe that Zhen-Zhen is gone?' Liam was having conflicting thoughts.

Liam was still in a deep thought when suddenly Mheera had spoken.

"Guardian lord, why are you silent? Are you that upset because I followed you here?"

Liam snapped out of his deep thought after hearing her voice.

"Mheera, you should go back to our world. You don't need to stay here anymore."

"Don't send me away, guardian lord. I came here to help and assist you with our important mission. I will not go back without you. Besides, you don't have to worry. The new guardian leader is doing great at ruling and protecting our land."

Mheera lied to Liam. She couldn't appoint a new leader because she was waiting for Liam's return. She thought no one could replace Liam. He was the strongest guardian warrior.

Meanwhile, Liam shook his head. "You don't understand. There is no need to stay here."

Mheera was confused as to why Liam was saying this.

"Why? What do you mean? The demon god's daughter is in this world. We have to find her and kill her. She might bring destruction to this world too. We should protect everyone."

Liam clenched his fists. He understood now how they were blinded by their ideals. They always thought that the world would be safe if they could kill the demon god's daughter.

In fact, the demon god's daughter had never committed any crime yet nor hurt people, but they already judged her just because she had the blood of the demon god running in her veins.

He became more guilty and felt sorry for Zhen-Zhen. She was an innocent person who just happened to have the bloodline of the demon god.

Her father had sinned against humanity but it didn't mean Zhen-Zhen had sinned against them. It was her father who committed the sin but they also blamed an innocent child just because she was his daughter.

With that thought in mind, Liam came up with his decision.

Liam held Mheera's shoulders and looked straight into her eyes.

"We don't need to continue the mission anymore because… the demon god's daughter will not bring chaos to the world."

Mheera looked at him confusedly but she still listened to his words. 

"The demon god's daughter is gone. I already killed her. So you don't have to worry anymore. Just go back."

Mheera was taken aback when she heard that.

'Our guardian lord already killed the demon god's daughter… but when? Since when? If he did, then why… why didn't he return?'

Mheera could not believe it so she voiced out what's on her mind.

"When did you fight her? If you already killed her, why didn't you return to our world? Why are you sending me away? Are you not coming back with me?" 

Mheera bombarded her with lots of questions.

"You should go back with me!" She firmly said while holding Liam's arms.

Liam shook his head. "Sorry, Mheera. I can't do that. My mission is done. I want to stay in this world."

Mheera: "..."
