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

The man saw the video playing on the phone. Zhen-Zhen was still holding the phone in her hands while shedding her tears. The man grabbed the phone from Zhen-Zhen.

"What are you two doing?" He asked Mark and Daniel once again.

The newcomer was none other than Andrew. He kept his eyes on his cousins since he overheard their conversation this morning. They were up to something.

When Lillie left the activity area, he saw Mark and Daniel stood up to follow her. Andrew also planned to apologize to Lillie so to make sure that his cousins would do nothing to her, Andrew also followed them.

Now, he was looking daggers at Mark and Daniel. This was the first time Andrew showed that he was displeased by their action. 

Andrew never complained to them before even if they tried to influence him to sleep with other women aside from Hannah. Andrew still managed to hide his displeasure before. 

But now, after seeing Lillie cry, he could no longer tolerate them. He could somehow guess that Mark and Daniel did something to make Lillie cry. 

He knew that the two of them were planning to do something tonight against Tristan. He was mad knowing that they targeted Lillie this time.

"Mark, Dan… Today is our family gathering. Can't you just behave appropriately and stop causing troubles even just for one day? What do you think you are doing?" Andrew's voice was firm. He sounded like he was scolding them.

Mark and Daniel didn't expect Andrew to react like this. They were bewildered to see this side of Andrew. They seldom saw him mad or angry.

He was always calm, maintaining his cool. He would only get mad when things were concerning Hannah. They couldn't believe it. This time he even raised his voice against them.

"Hey, cousin, don't be so worked up. We just told Lillie some important things she should know about her husband. We are not doing anything wrong," Mark said, feigning innocence.

"That's true. She had the right to know the truth. Besides, she already had an idea about Tristan's feelings. Remember, Tristan was the one who asked Lillie to seduce you because he wanted Hannah for himself." Daniel didn't stop emphasizing these words to Lillie.

Both Mark and Daniel were rejoicing inwardly. Their plan worked well. It seemed that Lillie got affected by this revelation. Now, they wondered what would happen between Tristan and Lillie.

Will they fight? Will Lillie confront Tristan?

Besides, Mark and Daniel believed that Tristan was still in love with Hannah and Lillie was just one special fling who was chosen by Tristan to be his trophy wife or in other words 'it's just for show.'

"Stop bringing that topic up again. Grandpa Lu just told us a while ago never to talk about that!" Andrew was referring to the seduction attempt.

The three men were still arguing when Zhen-Zhen spoke up with her mellow voice.

"I think I should go. I still need to see Tristan. He is waiting for me." She wiped her tears using her bare hands before leaving them.

A triumphant smile stretched out from the corner of Mark's and Daniel's lips as they watched Zhen-Zhen's retreating back.

"Lillie, wait!" Andrew left Mark and Daniel, following Lillie behind. He wanted to talk to her.

Zhen-Zhen kept walking without turning back but Andrew managed to catch up with her. He grabbed her elbow to make her stop.

"Lillie, listen to me," Andrew spoke up when Lillie came to a halt.

"I didn't know what my cousins told you but please don't listen to them right away. Talk to my brother first and ask him anything you want to know." Andrew advised her.

"The video you saw a while ago was already in the past. People change and so my brother. He might already have a change of heart upon meeting you." 

Andrew couldn't understand himself. He was not supposed to do this. Honestly, he didn't know about Tristan's feelings towards Lillie. He was not sure if his brother had already forgotten Hannah.

But all he wanted to do now was to console Lillie with these comforting words. He couldn't bear to see her cry and sad like this.

Zhen-Zhen gave Andrew a faint smile after hearing that. She was still in pain but his words comforted her a little bit.

"Thanks, Andrew. I understand."

Andrew just looked at her for several seconds. He was still holding her elbow. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her smile.

"By the way, Lillie… I want to apologize for what happened to you this afternoon. I think it was my fault that's why my soon to be mother-in-law acted like that. I should have explained to them that everything was just a misunderstanding and the four of us had already talked and fixed the issue." Andrew grabbed this opportunity to ask forgiveness from Zhen-Zhen.

"It's alright. I'm fine. You don't have to apologize anymore. Auntie already apologized to me."

Andrew frowned as he remembered it. He knew that Hannah's mother didn't apologize wholeheartedly. 

Andrew fell silent for a moment. He wanted to ask her something but he was hesitating.

"Lillie…"

"Yes, Andrew?"

"Auntie told you to stay away from me and Hannah. Will you do it?" Andrew felt bothered by that.

Zhen-Zhen didn't respond immediately.

"I hope you will not do it. I thought we would become friends." Andrew couldn't help but express his concern. He didn't want Lillie to distance herself from him.

After a while, Zhen-Zhen shook her head and gave him a reassuring smile. "Yeah, we can be friends so I will not do it.

Andrew's troubling thoughts disappeared after hearing that.

"It's dark over there. I will accompany you to Tristan then leave afterward. Let's go?" He wanted to make sure that Lillie would arrive at Tristan's location safely.

Zhen-Zhen just nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, on Tristan's side, he was still waiting for Zhen-Zhen. He wondered what took her so long to arrive. Matthew informed him that she was already on her way.

Then from a distance, Tristan saw a figure of a woman walking towards him. He signaled Jake and Blake to get ready. They were hiding at the back of the big trees. He assigned them to do something for this surprise.

"Wifey… what took you-" Tristan stopped mid-sentence upon seeing the face of the woman.

That person was not Zhen-Zhen, but Hannah.
