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

Chapter 460 - Indirectly Asking Her Out



Since Tristan and Zhen-Zhen had something to talk about at home, Sophia's and Zhen-Zhen's plan was postponed. They would just do it tomorrow.

With that, Matthew grabbed the opportunity to drop Sophia at her house while Zhen-Zhen and Tristan headed back to the Davis Family Mansion.

Since Matthew didn't bring his car, the two of them might take a taxi cab going to Sophia's place.

They were waiting for the taxi cab at the front entrance of the University of Imperial Knight when John and Lester saw them. They were riding John's car and about to leave the campus.

"Damn! My blood is boiling every time I will see this man. I can't forget the humiliation we got because of him, Sophia and Tristan Davis," John mumbled through his gritted teeth. He was looking dagger at Matthew and Sophia.

He stopped the car on the side, watching them.

Lester, on the other hand, just heaved a frustrated sigh.

"We can't do something. They are also powerful and influential just like our family. We can't easily beat them." Lester said, feeling dejected.

"Remember that our family business encountered difficulties because Matthew and Tristan intervened. We got scolded by our parents and we are still grounded," Lester added, emphasizing that Tristan and Matthew got them in trouble.

"Anyway, I'm wondering why you are using your car now. Are you not grounded anymore?" Lester asked John curiously.

John chuckled and said, "My brother convinced our parents to at least let me use my car during school days."

"Wow. I envy you. Your brother is spoiling you so much."

John just let out another chuckle, patting Lester's shoulder.

"Don't be sad, bro. We are going to get our revenge soon," John said, flashing a wicked smile on his face.

Lester frowned upon hearing that. "Revenge?" he asked.

John just bobbed his head to confirm.

"How?" Lester threw another question, feeling intrigued.

"I already talked to the guy referred to me by my brother's friends. Remember, I mentioned to you Mark and Daniel, Tristan's cousin. They are generous enough to help me find people who will take the job for our revenge."

"Really? So what are you planning to do?" Lester probed again. 

"Hmm, we will just sit back and wait. After that we will watch and enjoy the show as Matthew Wilkins and Tristan Davis will beg for their life." John let out a sardonic laugh.

"Do you mean… you hire someone to beat them?" Lester didn't know why but he had a bad feeling about this.

"Exactly! That's what I did!" John promptly responded.

"Are you sure about this? What if we will get in trouble again after this? The Davis and the Wilkins families are no jokes. They would not sit around knowing that their heirs got beaten up. Just like I said, they are powerful families. Even our parents didn't want to provoke nor offend them." Lester couldn't help but express his concern regarding this plan.

John gave Lester a reassuring smile. "You don't have to worry, Bro. The people I hired are professionals in this field. They guaranteed a high percentage of success. They will also ensure the confidentiality of their client's identity."

"Aside from that, my brother is very close to the two members of the Davis Family. So I am not worried at all."

Lester could only sigh deeply, hoping that this plan would backfire on them once again.

Meanwhile, Matthew and Sophia finally grabbed a cab. They stepped into the car, both of them sitting at the back passenger seat.

"Sophie…" Matthew called her attention as soon as they settled down inside the taxi cab. It already departed from the University of Imperial Knight.

Sophia turned to him and asked, "Yes, Matt?"

"It's too early to go home. I wonder if you want to go somewhere first." Matthew mustered up all his courage just to ask her that.

Sophia was taken aback for a moment, just staring at him. 'Is he… asking me out right now?' She pondered at that thought.

Then she immediately erased that thought. 'You silly girl, don't be delusional. He is not asking you out. Don't misunderstand. Maybe he just felt sorry that our plan was ruined today.'

She wanted to ask him 'Why' but Sophia just decided to think of a place where she wanted to go right now.

"Actually, I am planning to bring Lillie to a park, just walking and strolling around."

Matthew's eyes lit up after hearing that. "Really? Then let's go to a park. I heard there are new rides in Empire City Park. Do you like riding extreme rides?"

Sophia bobbed her head frantically. "Yes. I love to try. I always wanted to ride a Roller Coaster and Ferris wheel but I never got a chance to do that because I seldom hang out and I'm busy with my studies."

"Okay! Let's do that today!" Matthew said excitedly.

"But, it's okay that we go like this?" Sophia was referring to their clothes. She was wearing her school uniform while Matthew was wearing his corporate suit.

Matthew chuckled. "Of course! There's nothing wrong with wearing these kinds of clothes while having fun."

After saying that, Matthew told the driver to bring them to Empire City Park.

When they arrived, the park was already crowded with people, mostly young ones, teens and couples. Many came to visit the park today because of the new rides.

"Hmmm, are you ready to have fun?" Matthew asked Sophia. They were standing at the entrance.

Sophia bobbed her head. "Yes, I am!"

Matthew smiled at her tenderly before extending his arm to her. Sophia was dumbfounded. She just looked at Matthew's hand for several seconds, not knowing what to do.

Matthew let out a soft chuckle. "Grab my hand. The park is so crowded with so many people. We might get separated bumping into the sea of people. I don't want to lose you there."

Sophia didn't know why but Matthew's words affected her that much. Her face reddened instantly. And when Matthew took her hand, it seemed that there was an electric shock traveling from the tips of her finger spreading to the different parts of her body.

Her heart started to beat rapidly as Matthew tightened his grip on her hand as he pulled her inside the park. Sophia just followed his lead, her eyes were looking at their entangled hands.

'Argh! This is so awkward and uncomfortable. We look like we are a couple, dating in the park tonight.' Sophia mumbled to herself. Her face became more flushed.

'Why is it Matthew is acting very kind to me… Sigh. I don't want to misunderstand but… Ahhh! I don't want to think about this. We came here to enjoy ourselves and have fun! I should not be thinking anything.' Sophia scolded herself.

Soon, Matthew and Sophia arrived in the Roller Coaster Ride booth to buy tickets. They decided to ride it first. As expected, Sophia and Matthew felt the adrenaline rush during the entire ride.

Sophia's voice became hoarse after shouting too much. Matthew could only laugh at her. He enjoyed watching her and hearing her loud scream more than the ride.

"Are you okay?" Matthew asked Sophia who was still panting and calming her heart. 

"Wow! That was so intense. I thought I was gonna die from a heart attack!"

Matthew let out a soft chuckle. "Don't worry. I'm with you. I will not let you die. I will revive you and I will even perform CPR!"

Sophia: "..."

Sophia was caught off guard after hearing Matthew's last word. 'CPR? If he will do that then it's like he will kiss my lips?'

Blood rushed on her cheeks at that thought. 'Oh my gosh! What am I thinking?'

"Sophie, where do you want to go next. You want to ride Ferris Wheel?" 

Matthew's snapped her out of her daydream. She glanced at Matthew while smiling sheepishly. She hoped Matthew would not notice her blushing face. 

"Hey, are you okay? Your face… is so red," Matthew asked her worriedly after seeing her reddened face. He thought it was an aftermath of riding the Roller Coaster.

Sophia immediately covered her cheeks using her hands "Ahem, I'm fine. I just got tired from the ride so my face reddened." Sophia said as an alibi.

'Argh! Sophia! What lame excuse is that!'

Matthew just nodded his head. His concern for her still reflected in his eyes.

"Alright, we will rest for now. Come, let's go buy some drinks and snacks!" Matthew extended his right hand again to Sophia.

Sophia gladly accepted it. Then the two of them went to the stalls selling different street foods. After buying their food, Matthew and Sophia chose a spot where there were fewer people.

They chose the playground and sat on the swing. The people were enjoying the rides so there were only a few people in the playground right now.

Just near the playground, Matthew saw the Horror House. Then his eyes sparkled as an idea popped up in his mind.

'Hmm, I wanna bring Sophia there.'
