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

Chapter 244 - A Big Difference In Treatment



~ At Heavenly Star Enterprise ~

FaMo became the center of attention the moment they entered the building of the Heavenly Star Enterprise. Employees couldn't help but look at him, wondering who's the new handsome guy with their CEO.

They kept checking FaMo out from head to toe. Another beautiful being had entered their building. They were excited to know if he was a new director as well who might become their boss.

FaMo really made quite a hype in the entire company. He became the talk of the town. They wanted to know his name and position in the company.

He seemed to be a very important person since CEO Tristan was very attentive to him, telling FaMo information about the company.

When they arrived at Tristan's office, Matthew was already there waiting for his Boss. Matthew was surprised to see the handsome guy beside Tristan.

He was not informed about a new client, investor, or new personnel in the company who would be present in the office today.

"Good morning," Matthew greeted Tristan and FaMo with a smile.

Surprisingly, FaMo greeted Matthew back with the same smile. He was fond of Matthew because he could see that he also cared about Zhen-Zhen as if he was an elder brother to her.

"Good morning, Matthew," FaMo said with his cheerful voice.

The two men were taken aback by FaMo's friendly greetings. Matthew was surprised that this person knew his name while Tristan was surprised by FaMo's gentle behavior towards Matthew.

Tristan somehow felt jealous of Matthew. His so-called father-in-law was very kind towards Matthew compared to him.

'Eh,? What a big difference in treatment?! What if Father-in-law will like Matthew for my Zhen-Zhen? No… Don't tell me he is still looking for a better candidate as his son-in-law?' Tristan couldn't help but become paranoid.

Tristan entered the office with his gloomy expression. He also introduced the two of them to each other.

"This is Matthew, my friend and at the same time, my assistant. Matthew, meet Mr. Zu Wan, he is my mas-" Tristan paused for a moment, hesitating to say the word Master.

He felt like crying upon meeting FaMo's sharp gaze. He was waiting for him to continue his words.

Tristan sighed deeply before continuing, "He is my Master." He finally said it in order not to upset FaMo.

Matthew's lips twitched upon hearing that. He couldn't believe that their mighty CEO called someone Master. He was trying his best to hold his laughter after seeing Tristan's contorted face.

He looked like he was being forced to do something he didn't like to do.

"Master?? Master in what?" Matthew asked Tristan curiously. 

"He is kinda my advisor." Tristan simply stated, walking to his executive chair.

Matthew turned to FaMo with a wide grin on his face. "Welcome to the company Advisor Zu Wan."

"Thank you, Matthew. I'm glad to finally meet you in person." FaMo said to Matthew but what he truly meant was 'I am glad to finally talk to you in my human form.'

Tristan just watched the two men, having a friendly vibe around them. He was really jealous right now. His Father-in-law was treating Matthew better than the way he was treating him.

Because of that, Tristan was feeling down the whole morning. FaMo noticed Tristan's sullen expression. He seemed distracted with his work too.

'What's the problem of this fool? His mood is not good today.' FaMo pondered to himself.

From time to time, he would catch Tristan looking at him with his pitiful expression. He lost count of how many times Tristan heaved a deep long sigh in front of him.

Tristan also stopped talking to FaMo since Matthew was there, entertaining him. Even during lunchtime, Tristan had no appetite.

FaMo and Matthew were just observing Tristan's strange behavior. Matthew asked him if he had a problem but Tristan just said 'Nothing serious'.

FaMo was silent but deep inside he was worried. 'Is Tristan not feeling well? Did he also receive some effects after both of us were stabbed by the divine sword?'

FaMo made a mental note to ask Tristan later once Matthew was not around.

They just finished their lunch when Matthew remembered something.

"Tris, did you hear? Andrew got into an accident yesterday. He is still in the hospital, that's why he is absent today. He was on the way to the hospital where Hannah's mother was admitted when the accident happened. He drove his car while he was drunk." Matthew informed Tristan.

Tristan was stunned for a moment. As far as he could remember, Andrew might have seen Hannah confessing to him that night. 

He somehow felt guilty and responsible for his brother's accident. Maybe Andrew got himself drunk after witnessing Hannah's confession to him.

Tristan massaged his temples and thought to himself, 'I had to clear this thing as soon as possible.'

"Matthew, I will leave the office. Can you handle things here on my behalf in the meantime? I just need to go somewhere to fix some things," Tristan said to Matthew.

FaMo and Matthew averted their gaze to Tristan.

"Where are you going?" Matthew asked him.

"I need to talk to Hannah," Tristan promptly responded.

Matthew and FaMo fell silent while watching Tristan's serious expression.

"Ok. Got it. No major activity today so you can leave. Just be back right away." Matthew told Tristan.

Tristan smiled at Matthew faintly before nodding his head. Then FaMo also spoke up.

"I will come with you," FaMo declared.

Tristan: "..."

Matthew: "..."

They didn't expect FaMo to volunteer himself like that. His voice was firm, not allowing anyone to disagree with him. FaMo was very sensitive whenever he would hear Hannah's name.

That girl was the cause of Zhen-Zhen's emotional pain so he couldn't let Tristan meet that girl alone. He needed to spy on him, making sure that he would not betray Zhen-Zhen because of that girl.

Tristan could understand his intention. It was just a normal reaction from his so-called Father-in-law since he was aware of Tristan's past feelings for Hannah.

Tristan could only sigh and said, "Sure, you can come with me, Master."
