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

Chapter 213 - A Stranger In The Club



"Lillie! Finally, I found you!"

Both Andrew and Zhen-Zhen averted their gaze in the direction of that voice. That person was Blake. He saw Zhen-Zhen first before Andrew.

When Blake noticed Andrew's presence, he was dumbfounded for a moment.

'Eh? What's happening in the world here? Just a while ago, Tristan and Hannah were together. And now, Andrew and Lillie are together as well! Are the two couples exchanging partners now?' Blake thought to himself as he silently observed the two people in front of him.

On the other hand, Zhen-Zhen frowned upon seeing Blake's presence. 'What is he doing here? Why is he looking for me?'

Zhen-Zhen's questions in her mind were answered the moment Blake spoke up once again.

"Tristan is searching for you all over the place. You and Tristan were supposed to meet, right? He got worried because you didn't come."

Then Blake scratched his face and added, "It turned out, you are just here… doing target shooting with… Andrew."

Andrew's face darkened upon hearing that. It seemed that Blake misinterpreted something. He sounded like the two of them were the ones doing something behind Tristan's back.

Zhen-Zhen just raised her brow at the mention of Tristan's name.

'That person was the reason why I was able to take over her. Should I go with Andrew or go back to see Tristan?' she was undecided of what to do.

'I wanna test something,' Zhen-Zhen added to her thoughts.

After she made up her mind, Zhen-Zhen turned to Andrew, giving him her answer.

"Andrew, thanks for tonight. I'm gonna go back now to see Tristan." Zhen-Zhen decided to reject his invitation.

Andrew looked at her worriedly, "Are you sure about this? Will you be okay?"

Zhen-Zhen just nodded at him while giving him a reassuring smile. 

Andrew could only sigh deeply. He didn't want to create another misunderstanding so he didn't insist further on inviting her. Blake might think differently and misunderstood their actions.

Blake just watched them confusedly. He was wondering to himself whether this was just a coincidence or not. 

'Did the two of them see what happened in the forest?' Blake pondered at that thought.

He was curious but he couldn't ask them about that. What if they didn't see it then he suddenly asked them? He would just create more trouble for the two pairs of couples.

After deciding to keep his mouth shut, Blake asked Zhen-Zhen to return with him since Tristan was already worried sick just looking for her.

Zhen-Zhen said goodbye to Andrew. Soon, Zhen-Zhen and Blake left the target shooting area while Andrew drove off to the City after returning the shooting gears and equipment he borrowed.

Andrew had no plan of staying at the camping site tonight. He didn't know if he could face Hannah as of this moment. He didn't want to see her because he was badly hurt by the scene he had just witnessed.

The woman he loved whom he was about to marry just confessed to another man who was also his brother.

Meanwhile, Tristan was already waiting for Zhen-Zhen in their tent. Blake just informed him that he already found his wife.

It did not take long when Tristan saw a faint light from the distance. The light came from the flashlight Blake was holding. The two figures were walking toward his spot.

Tristan came running to Zhen-Zhen. He was about to hug her when he stopped mid-way. He didn't know why but after what happened in that forest, Tristan couldn't bring himself to touch nor hug Zhen-Zhen.

He was reminded by Hannah's words.

{ "Do you love Lillie? Or you are just using her to move on and pretend in front of me and Andrew that you already moved on?" }

His guilt was consuming his heart right now. Blake cleared his throat to catch Tristan's attention. He noticed that Tristan was dazed for a moment.

"Cough! Cough! I think I should leave now. Lillie, Tristan, good night! Have a good rest!" Blake said, bidding goodbye to the husband and wife.

Tristan just nodded at him with a grateful look on his face.

Zhen-Zhen was just silently observing Tristan. A deep frown crept on her forehead. She raised her hand and brought it to her chest.

'What is this pain? This heart is currently acting strange?' Zhen-Zhen thought to herself as she felt like her heart was being squeezed and she felt suffocated.

Then a cold glint flashed through her dark eyes. Tristan didn't notice her eyes yet because he was not looking at her eyes. He was avoiding her gaze.

There was a moment of silence between them. No one initiated to talk first. Because of that, Zhen-Zhen became more upset with this guy.

'I should leave now before I start wreaking havoc here.' Tristan's silence was just affecting her mood. She felt like a volcano was about to erupt inside her.

Zhen-Zhen walked past him and entered their tent. Tristan finally realized his mistake.

'Damn! What's happening to me? Instead of keeping quiet, I should have talked to her. Argh! My surprise for her was ruined!' Tristan cursed himself.

"Wifey! Wait!" Tristan followed her inside their tent.

***********

[ After 30 minutes… ]

Andrew arrived at the center of the Empire City. He entered a certain Night Club where no one could recognize him.

He wanted to forget something even just tonight so he decided to drown himself with alcohol. He wanted to erase the pain and sadness in his heart right now.

He started drinking non-stop. He felt miserable. He felt useless. He was losing his confidence.

Suddenly, the hatred he buried deep down his heart started to resurface. His grip on his glass tightened.

'Tristan would always be the number one in their hearts. A bastard like me… couldn't compete against him. I tried my best to become better than him. Why is it I feel like all my efforts are still not enough?'

He was having these negative thoughts when someone tapped his shoulder.

"I think you need someone to talk to. May I join you?" Andrew heard the voice of a stranger sitting next to him.

Andrew turned to his side only to see a gorgeous stranger with emerald eyes, smiling at him. Andrew just bobbed his head.

"Hmm, nice. By the way, I'm Liam, how about you, Bro?" Liam extended his right hand to Andrew as he introduced himself.

He accepted Liam's hand for the handshake and said, "I'm Andrew."
