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

"That's why I am here. I'm starting with you… fixing my relationship with my brother."

Those words struck Andrew most. He had never imagined that Tristan would ever say these words to him. Honestly speaking, he was touched right now.

How he wished that Tristan told him this before Hannah's confession happened. Maybe Andrew could accept it wholeheartedly.

However, it seemed that he couldn't do it for now. He was still hurt by what happened. Fixing their relationship as brothers won't be as easy as that. He still needed time to gather himself and clear his mind.

But Andrew really appreciated Tristan's action and initiative to do this.

"Thank you for doing this Tristan… but… can you please give me more time to adjust? A broken relationship couldn't be fixed that easily. If you know what I mean…" Andrew was expressing his honest thoughts about this.

Tristan smiled at him faintly, patting Andrew's shoulder.

"I understand, Andrew. I know what you mean. It's just that… I want you to know that I am willing to start over again with you as my brother. Let's forget about the past conflicts that we have. I hope that from now on, we will get along very well just like how we used to when we were still kids."

Andrew nodded at Tristan's last remarks. "Don't worry, bro. I think it's possible. Besides, we are just one family, am I right?"

Tristan also bobbed his head as a response.

Both Tristan and Andrew were trying to loosen up a little bit. At least the atmosphere around them was not as awkward as compared to before.

Tristan stayed with Andrew for a while since Isabelle had not returned yet. It seemed that their mother was intentionally taking her time to be back so that the two brothers could spend more time together.

Isabelle knew that once she came back Tristan would leave immediately, going back to the company.

Tristan and Andrew spent their time talking about work and the company.

"When are you coming back to work?" Tristan asked Andrew. He was currently peeling an apple for them to eat.

"Probably, after a week. My injury is not that severe. I will also be discharged tomorrow," Andrew replied to him, watching Tristan in amusement while he was peeling those apples.

'I didn't know that my brother was as thoughtful as this. It's my first time seeing him serving me like this.' Andrew smiled at that thought.

"Sigh! You took a lot of vacation leave already!" Tristan complained to him.

"But you took One Month Leave," Andrew said nonchalantly.

"But Grandpa is so harsh, giving me a pile of work after coming back. Did you imagine that?! Argh… that old man, sometimes I want to peel him just like this apple."

Andrew let out a soft chuckle because of Tristan's ranting.

"You and Grandpa are always fighting and arguing. Can't you have a ceasefire even just for one day?" Andrew took a small piece of apple from Tristan's plate and brought it into his mouth to taste it.

Tristan furrowed his brows as he remembered what Grandpa Lu did to him for the past few days. Kidnapping his wife and drugging them both~ just thinking about those things made him upset.

"Well….grandpa is grandpa. If he wants to argue he will do it. He is also acting childish sometimes." Tristan shrugged at that thought.

Andrew let out another chuckle.

Tristan lifted his eyebrow and asked, "Why are you laughing? Is there something funny about that?"

"Well, if grandpa is acting childish sometimes then you, on the other hand, are acting childish most of the time," Andrew said matter-of-factly before chuckling once again.

Andrew was about to take another slice of apple when Tristan pulled the plate away from him. Andrew gazed up only to see Tristan's contorted face. He was frowning at him.

'Eh, what's wrong with him?'

"Don't you want to share that apple with me, bro?" Andrew asked him confusedly.

"Yeah! You have your hands, so peel an apple for yourself."

"How dare he call me childish?" Tristan murmured to himself but Andrew still managed to hear it.

He burst out laughing once again. "See, you are acting childish again, bro! Just give me that apple! I'm the patient here, not you!"

Andrew tried to steal the plate from Tristan's hand but Tristan stood up and raised it above his head so that Andrew couldn't reach it.

"Take back your words first, or else, you will never ever taste an apple again which is personally peeled by the mighty CEO of Heavenly Star Company," Tristan said to his brother. His eyes were sparkling with humor.

"Seriously, Tristan??!" Andrew asked him exasperatedly.

Tristan simply nodded. Then Andrew complied with his demand.

"Alright. I take my words back."

After that, the two brothers ended up laughing together. They were both acting silly right now. At least, they were trying their best to put back their broken relationship.

It's been a long time since the two of them laughed together like this. They felt glad that they could joke with each other again.

After they were done laughing, Tristan talked about a serious matter. "Oh, by the way, did you hear that our rival company is launching a new product this month? Their CEO said that their personalized watch is three times better than our limited edition watch this month."

Andrew frowned upon hearing that. "What company are you referring to, brother? We have lots of rival companies, did you forget?"

"Oh, but there's only one company that is very eager to compete with us, bro. It's the Sy Corp." Tristan informed Andrew.

Andrew suddenly recalled Ms. Noisy Talkative Roaring Thunder Alveena. She had the same surname Sy. But Andrew immediately shook it off his brain. There were lots of people from the City of Empire having 'Sy' as their surname.

"Well, it's because of you. You offended their CEO two years ago. Remember? The Clifford guy?" Andrew reminded him of the past event.

"Argh, don't remind me. It's not entirely my fault. I can't believe that he still has a grudge against me. It happened a long time ago." Tristan said, defending himself.
