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

Chapter 162 - A Talk Between Two Brothers



FaMo who was watching from the sideline had a satisfied look on his face.

'You just saved your ass today, Tristan. Because of that, I will let you have a good sleep.' FaMo thought to himself as he observed the bright expression of Zhen-Zhen.

He was worried about her a while ago. It was a good thing Zhen-Zhen was able to control her emotions, or else it would give them big trouble.

Then FaMo turned to Hannah with a sharp glare. He wondered what she did to make Zhen-Zhen sad.

But he was taken aback when he saw Hannah's gloomy expression. She looked like she was sulking in her spot.

After Tristan and Zhen-Zhen broke the hug, Andrew also appeared at the veranda. He was also searching for Hannah. He thought Lillie and Hannah were done talking.

When Andrew reached their spot, he felt like something was off. Hannah was not looking good.

'What happened to their talk?' Andrew marveled at that thought.

The moment Hannah's eyes found Andrew, she immediately walked towards him, hugging him as well.

"Is everything alright?" Andrew asked her.

But Hannah just remained silent as her grip on Andrew's body tightened.

Andrew gave Tristan and Zhen-Zhen a questioning look. But they had no idea what's wrong with Hannah. The atmosphere became awkward for the four of them.

Fortunately, Isabelle intervened when she called them.

"Oh, everyone is here. Who wants to join me in the Market? I will buy ingredients for tonight's dinner. We will have family dinner!" Isabelle said to the two couples excitedly.

"Tristan, I wanna go with Mom. Can I?" Zhen-Zhen mumbled, asking Tristan's permission.

"Yeah, of course, you can do that," Tristan promptly responded.

"Alright! Lillie is coming with me. How about you dear Hannah?" Isabelle asked Hannah, hoping that she would also accompany them.

But Hannah felt reluctant since Lillie was also coming. She didn't know what to say. Fortunately, Andrew spoke up on her behalf.

"Mom, Hannah is not feeling well right now. It's better if she will just stay here and rest for a while."

"I'm sorry to hear that. Okay, dear. I will ask the maid to prepare the guest room. You can rest there while waiting for dinner," Isabelle suggested.

"Thanks, Mom. And I'm sorry if I couldn't join you." Hannah politely said to her.

"It's alright dear. I understand. You should take care of yourself. You are getting sick lately." Isabelle said with her concerned voice.

"I'm just fine, Mom. It's just that I got tired because of the hectic schedule when we were preparing for the engagement party. But I got enough rest now," Hannah reassured Isabelle.

"Ok, dear." Then Isabelle turned to Zhen-Zhen. "Shall we go now, Lillie?"

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head with a smile. "Can I bring FaMo, Mom?"

"Yes, you can." Isabelle promptly responded.

"How about you, son? Are you coming with us?" Isabelle asked Tristan.

Tristan paused for a moment.

"Mom, I think I will let you spend time with my wife. I will just stay here. Besides, there's something I want to discuss with Andrew. It's work-related," Tristan said while eyeing Andrew meaningfully.

Isabelle just nodded at him. Soon Zhen-Zhen and Isabelle left them together with FaMo.

Andrew understood Tristan so he guided Hannah to one of the guest rooms inside the Mansion first before he went out to talk to his brother.

Hannah wanted to be alone so she didn't mind if Andrew would leave her in the room. When he came out of the guest room, he saw Tristan sitting leisurely in the living room.

Andrew joined him as he sat down on the opposite chair facing Tristan.

"What do you want to talk about, brother?" Andrew immediately asked Tristan.

After his conversation with Zhen-Zhen, Andrew was no longer mad at Tristan compared to before, that's the reason why he could call him brother once again.

Tristan sat up on his chair and met Andrew's gaze.

"I want to apologize for punching you that day. I know it's my fault but I couldn't control my anger after seeing you and Lillie in that position. I acted on impulse. I'm sorry." 

Tristan was also direct. He didn't beat around the bush as he apologized to Andrew right away.

Andrew, on the other hand, was glad to hear Tristan's sincere apology.

Tristan was dumbfounded when he saw Andrew's lip curl up into a smile. 

'Did he just smile? Wait… is he laughing at me or accepting my apology?' Tristan pondered to himself.

He was frowning as he waited for Andrew to say something.

"Do you think it's unfair brother? You give me a hard punch. You should let me punch you too before I can accept your apology." Andrew said to him with a smirk.

Tristan: "..."

'I knew it! He won't accept my apology just like that.' Tristan complained in his thoughts.

Tristan's frown deepened as he shot Andrew a cold sharp glare. Seeing the ugly and annoyed expression of his brother, Andrew couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Tristan looked at him in confusion. 'Why is he laughing? This is not funny!'

As if Andrew had read his mind, he stopped laughing and spoke to him.

"Brother, relax. I'm just kidding. Don't take my words seriously. I'm just teasing you. I have no plan of punching you. I accept your apology." There was still a glint of humor in Andrew's eyes as he told him those words.

Tristan was rendered speechless once again. He didn't know that Andrew was joking. He thought he was serious when he said he wanted to punch him too.

Andrew couldn't blame him. It was a very long time ago since the last time the two of them interacted like this. They seldom exchanged jokes with each other since the day they became distant from one another.

"Are you sure about that? Accepting my apology just like that?" Tristan asked Andrew in disbelief.

Andrew nodded at him with a faint smile.

"But why?" Tristan still couldn't believe it.

"Because I learned that everything was just a big misunderstanding. Your wife already explained it to me. Lillie also apologized to me."
