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

Chapter 285 - The Woman Hater CEO



After talking with Sophia, Marcus found out that she's really cool. She's not the boring type of girl he was expecting her to be. He really had fun talking to her.

He learned more things about her. Of course, he knew all her achievements as he did some research. But Sophia was very humble and kind. She's not bragging about those achievements at all.

He also learned that Sophia had to study hard because she's a scholar and she just came from an average family, not rich but not poor. She was also family-oriented. He got to know her more. They also had things in common. Both of them liked the sports basketball.

Sophia, on the other hand, became more comfortable with Marcus. He was easy to talk to, just like the first time she met him. He was very generous enough to help and assist her when she was still a new student of the University of Imperial Knights.

Sophia appreciated Marcus for being approachable and attentive to her.

"Hey, Sophia, what do you want to do next after lunch here?" Marcus asked her expectantly.

For an unknown reason, Marcus felt excited to be with her today. Before coming here, he was sulking, thinking that this date would be boring as hell. But his expectation was wrong.

And who would have thought that Sophia was really beautiful if she would just dress up and apply some makeup? She's not dull looking compared to the photo that was sent to him by his sister.

"Hmm, actually, I don't know. How about you? Do you have a plan in mind?" Sophia returned the question to him.

"Hmm, okay. Choose one. What do you prefer a walk in the park or watch a movie?" Marcus gave her two options to choose from.

When Marcus mentioned the movie, the scene between FaMo and her last night in the movie theater crossed her mind. Sophia's cheeks immediately blushed after remembering that awkward moment. She shook her head, pushing the memory at the back of her mind.

"Hmm, I think I want to take a walk in the park." 

Sophia chose the park because she would only remember FaMo once they entered the movie theater. She won't be able to concentrate with Marcus if that would happen.

"Alright, let's do that then. Let's stroll around the city as well. I brought my car so we can also have a road trip. Then at around 4:00 pm, let's take a walk in the park. It will not be hot at that time." Marcus suggested to her.

"Sure, let's do that."

It did not take long when their orders arrived. The same with Zhen-Zhen, the food she ordered was now being placed on her table by the waiter. The waiter couldn't help but check Zhen-Zhen out.

She's not in her disguise that's why she's attracting attention from the other men inside the restaurant, especially the waiter who got to serve her food.

If Zhen-Zhen was attracting the men inside the restaurant, there was a newcomer who's attracting the attention of the ladies. Two men who were wearing a three-piece black suit entered the Florenz Restaurant.

They chose the table next to Zhen-Zhen's table. The two men settled down and the waiter approached them to get their order. Some of the customers inside the restaurant recognized the man who's wearing an aloof and cold expression.

"Wait, that gorgeous man… he is the CEO of the Sy Corp, right? Clifford Sy?" One of the ladies who recognized him started murmuring with her friends.

"Oh my gosh, he is here. Yeah, I saw him in the men's magazines just a few days ago. He is one of the successful CEO bachelors in the City of Empire. Clifford Sy! He looks like a handsome prince charming." Another lady blurted out. They were checking him out from the distance.

"He looks cold and intimidating but that adds to his attractiveness. Argh, he is still single, right? I wish to date someone like him. He is so hot. I wonder how does it feel to have a boyfriend like Clifford Sy." One lady said with her dreamy eyes.

"That will happen in your dream, sis. It is close to impossible. I heard that he became a woman-hater after his broken engagement with his fiancee. That's unfortunate." One of the three ladies brought up the topic of Clifford's past relationship.

The two ladies gasped upon hearing that. "Broken engagement? What happened?"

"The girl cheated on him." The lady responded to her friends.

"What?! Is she stupid? Who's on her right mind to cheat on someone like Clifford Sy? He is already a perfect package!" One of the ladies exclaimed in disbelief.

"That's true. If I am the fiancee I won't let go of the opportunity to marry Clifford Sy! He is already a big deal. She's foolish and stupid." the other lady also commented exasperatedly.

The girl who somehow knew some parts of the story just smiled at them. "Well, I can't blame the girl. She became the victim of the irresistible charm of another Handsome CEO, Tristan Davis of the Heavenly Star Enterprise."

"Damn! Tristan Davis!"

"Oh shit! Now I understand her. Maybe Tristan Davis performed better than Clifford Sy. You know what I mean?" The other girl smiled playfully at the naughty thoughts in her mind.

The two ladies nodded in agreement. "Well, she's lucky. She was able to taste two gorgeous and handsome men at the same time!"

Meanwhile, the topic of ladies' conversation was silently sitting at their table. Clifford was still in a foul mood because of Tristan. The assistant was the one talking to the waiter, telling him the food they wanted to order.

Clifford and Zhen-Zhen were sitting back to back so they couldn't see each other. The Assistant was sitting on the opposite side of Clifford. After a few minutes, the food was being served at their table. Clifford and his assistant started eating their food.

Zhen-Zhen just finished her meal. She paid her bill then she decided to go to the comfort room and fixed herself. Sophia and Marcus were also done eating but they were still talking at their table. When Zhen-Zhen was inside the Comfort Room, Marcus asked Sophia to leave the restaurant.

Sophia agreed with Marcus. When she turned on Zhen-Zhen's table, she didn't see her so Sophia just informed her that she and Marcus were going to leave the restaurant now. Zhen-Zhen just finished using the comfort room when she read Sophia's message.

She came out of the CR in a hurry. Zhen-Zhen saw Sophia and Marcus at the entrance of the restaurant. Zhen-Zhen was rushing to follow them when Clifford suddenly stood up while holding the glass of his wine. A glass of wine was the perfect drink after eating a steak so Clifford ordered some. It was a nice blend.

Since Zhen-Zhen was in a hurry, she accidentally bumped into Clifford thus spilling the red wine on his suit. Clifford's assistant gasped in surprise after witnessing the scene. He was certain that a volcano was about to erupt because of this incident.

Because of a woman's carelessness, the suit of his big boss was ruined. He would have a meeting with the Mall owner soon.

But what he was worried about most was that the culprit was a woman. It was a known fact that his boss hated women, but only second to Tristan Davis.
