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

'Damn! He saw it!' Matthew cursed inwardly, biting his lips.

Matthew tried to feign Innocence and said, "What? Why are you giving me that kind of look?"

Tristan chuckled before snatching the paper bag from Matthew's hand. Then he wrapped his arms around Matthew's shoulder while whispering something to him.

"I saw it. You are checking Sophia out. Hmm… she's beautiful, right?" Tristan said, teasing Matthew.

Matthew's eyes widened in surprise after hearing that. So the charming woman in front of them was none other than Sophia, Lillie's friend.

He almost didn't recognize her. She's different from the Sophia whom he met yesterday.

Zhen-Zhen and Sophia walked over to join Tristan and Matthew.

"Matt, you're here as well!" Zhen-Zhen greeted him cheerfully.

Matthew smiled sheepishly at Zhen-Zhen while scratching his face. "Yeah, I'm here because Tristan asked me to bring something."

Sophia also greeted Matthew. "Hello, Sir Matthew."

Matthew was taken aback for a while. But after he recovered, he smiled back at Sophia, greeting her.

"Hello, Sophie. You look great… very beautiful." Matthew couldn't help but compliment her.

Sophia blushed a little. She was not used to receiving compliments from other people, especially men.

"Thank you," Sophia shyly mumbled.

'Argh, she's cuter when blushing.' Matthew laughed inwardly.

Tristan returned the paper bag to Matthew. Matthew looked at him in confusion.

"Why are you giving me this?" 

"Go, give this to Sophia. Help Sophia wear her necklace," Tristan said, winking at Matthew.

Matthew: "..."

Then Tristan turned to Sophia and Zhen-Zhen. "Matt brought the accessories. The earrings and necklace. These accessories will complete the picture."

"Matt, help Sophia in putting on her necklace!" Tristan added.

Tristan immediately pushed Matthew forward to Sophia. 

'Shit! Why is he putting me in this awkward situation? Can I beat my best friend after this?' Matthew complained inwardly while glaring at Tristan who was just grinning from ear to ear.

'Why didn't I think about it? I should have let Matt date Sophia last night. But I needed to keep my father-in-law busy so that I could have private time with my wife.' Tristan thought to himself.

He pulled Zhen-Zhen to his side, keeping her attention only to him so that Matthew would be the one to help Sophia wear her necklace.

Matthew could only sigh deeply, shaking his head while looking at Tristan helplessly. He was clearly setting him up today.

Matthew turned to face Sophia. He smiled awkwardly at her, scratching the back of his head.

"Come, let me help you put this necklace around your neck." Matthew softly said to Sophia. He picked up the jewelry box inside the paper bag.

Sophia was hesitating at first. But in the end, she just nodded her head in agreement. Her cheeks reddened more from embarrassment.

She immediately turned to hide her blushing face. Her back was now facing Matthew. Meanwhile, Matthew was already holding the silver necklace that has a small round Jade pendant.

"Sophie, can you lift your hair for me?" Matthew requested.

Sophia complied with his request as she grabbed her hair up while Matthew was gently putting the necklace on her neck.

Sophia looked down and grabbed the pendant. She started playing its pendant in her hand. After that, Sophia thanked Matthew. Then she wore her earrings.

"Good luck and enjoy your first date," Matthew said, smiling tenderly at Sophia.

"Thank you, Sir Matthew."

Matthew pouted after hearing Sophia calling him 'sir' again. He felt very old because of that.

"Ahem… if you are really grateful, why don't you just call me Matthew or Matt for short? Please don't call me sir. Besides, I'm not your boss nor your professor. You are so formal that I feel like I'm really old."

Sophia giggled after hearing Matthew's complaint.

"Alright. I won't call you sir anymore."

Matthew's face brightened up after hearing that. "That's better."

Tristan settled the bill for today's makeover. The four of them said goodbye to Lorenzo, the head Stylist. Then they left the parlor, going to the mall.

When the four of them already left, the three staff who were watching Tristan and Zhen-Zhen a while ago approached Lorenzo. They were very curious about Zhen-Zhen and her relationship with Tristan so they asked Lorenzo about them.

"Boss, who's the girl with Mr. Davis? Is she a new girlfriend?" One girl asked Lorenzo curiously.

Lorenzo hadn't given his answer yet when another staff spoke up.

"She's beautiful. However, it's unfortunate that she became part of Mr. Davis's collection of women. Furthermore, there's also a rumor saying that Mr. Davis is already married. Is she okay being a mistress?"

"She's not unfortunate. To date Tristan Davis and be part of his harem is already a blessing for other women! He's handsome, wealthy and famous." Another girl shared her opinion with them.

"Watch your mouth, Ladies! Tristan Davis is our VIP client. Don't talk bad about him. Don't judge him as well. And it's his personal life. Why do you care?" Lorenzo slightly reprimanded them.

The three ladies lowered their gaze and apologized to Lorenzo right away.

Lorenzo just took a deep breath. But before he left, Lorenzo told them something that shocked them to the core. He satisfied their curiosity.

"By the way, ladies… the girl you saw a while ago whom you thought was one of Tristan Davis's flings and his mistress… she's Mrs. Davis, Tristan's legal and lawful wife." 

Three Staff: "..."

"So stop spouting nonsense. You will get yourself in trouble. You are lucky that they didn't hear you, gossiping about them." Lorenzo shook his head in disappointment.

Meanwhile, Matthew went separate ways since he was already done with his task today. Tristan would drop Zhen-Zhen and Sophia in the mall.

Zhen-Zhen wanted to see Marcus's reaction once he saw Sophia. She would just lurk around them, spying them secretly from a distance wherein Marcus won't be able to see her. 

Sophia also asked her to watch over them because she's nervous. She needed to see Lillie in order to boost her confidence and to calm her nervous heart. She was very conscious of herself.

However, whenever she would see Zhen-Zhen's reassuring smile, Sophia was also gaining her strength and courage to do this.
