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

Chapter 424 An Emergency Situation



The concern regarding Zhen-Zhen\'s sudden disappearance had been resolved. Grandpa Lu and Tristan\'s parents didn\'t ask further. The important thing for them was Zhen-Zhen was safe and she\'s with Tristan right now.

Grandpa Lu thanked the officers who helped them with the search operation. He explained that there was a miscommunication within the family so he apologized for the inconvenience they brought to them.

The officers didn\'t mind it since it was their pleasure to be of service for the Davis Family. They were one of the respectable and influential families in the City of Empire.

Tristan heaved a sigh of relief when the call ended. He was thinking to be more careful next time if ever Zhen-Zhen would use her power again. Others might notice something odd, even Matthew started to suspect that he was hiding something from him.

Zhen-Zhen\'s sudden arrival in that country caused a mystery because the timing was not right. The length of time of traveling by airplane did not coincide with the time she suddenly appeared in Tristan\'s hotel room just a few hours after she was last seen in the City of Empire.

They would be in big trouble if ever Zhen-Zhen\'s power would be known to others. Tristan also didn\'t want his family to change their view and attitude towards Zhen-Zhen once they learned that she\'s no ordinary human.

He didn\'t want to judge them, it\'s just that he just wanted to maintain the good relationship and beautiful connection that Zhen-Zhen had built with his family.

Grandpa Lu doted on her so much. His parents were also fond of her. Andrew was getting along well with Zhen-Zhen as they were now friends. Tristan hoped to keep this.

But the main question was how long would they be able to hide this secret from everyone especially now that so many things were happening unexpectedly and people were trying to scheme against Tristan and Zhen-Zhen?

What would happen if there would be an incident that Zhen-Zhen had no choice but to use her power to save people\'s lives, herself, and the people close to her heart?

For the whole day, Tristan focused on the preparation of the upcoming product launching of their branch. They would be showcasing their new brand of perfume, men\'s and women\'s clothing brands, and jewelry.

Zhen-Zhen stayed by his side, helping Tristan and Matthew finalizing the event plan and program. Tristan also consulted Zhen-Zhen about her opinions such as her preferences about the stage designs and venue arrangement.

Tristan enjoyed working today as he was inspired. It felt so good to have the woman he loved by his side helping him during his work. He didn\'t feel stress or tired because Zhen-Zhen\'s presence was enough to energize and motivate him.

\'Ah, why do I feel like firing Matthew as my assistant and replace him with my wife?\' Tristan smiled at that thought. \'With this, I will be with my wife 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!\'

Matthew just shook his head helplessly when he saw Tristan smiling like a fool. He didn\'t know what he was thinking.

If Matthew just knew that his boss who at the same time his best friend, was now thinking of firing him because he wanted to be with his wife 24/7 then he would gladly submit his resignation letter right away.

After work, Tristan decided to treat Zhen-Zhen and Matthew to a fine dinner. But Matthew refused Tristan\'s invitation since he was aware that Tristan needed to have a private time with his wife. They had lots of catching up to do for being separated for several days.

Matthew just decided to go straight into his hotel room while Tristan and Zhen-Zhen drove to one of the famous cozy restaurants in the city.

There were lots of customers present tonight as it was their peak season. The restaurant was very lively because of the invited live bands performing at the center stage.

The music was adding to the romantic vibe inside the restaurant. Not only couples but also families were enjoying their dinner in that place.

Many prominent people were there. Even some of the investors Tristan was trying to talk to were dining there together with their family members.

Tristan informed Zhen-Zhen that those people were the ones who he needed to talk to in order to fix the problem of their branch.

"Hubby, when will you be meeting them? Can I go with you?" Zhen-Zhen asked Tristan expectantly.

Tristan smiled at her and nodded his head.

"Of course yes. My meeting with them is scheduled for three days from now. I hope they will not push it to another date. They kept delaying things on my part." Tristan heaved a frustrated sigh. That was the reason Tristan couldn\'t go home early.

"Don\'t worry hubby. I know you can fix this. I will help you," Zhen-Zhen said to him, feeling determined.

Soon, Tristan guided her to their reserved table. The waiter arrived and greeted them, getting their orders. Tristan ordered different menus for them, especially the best-selling beefsteak of the restaurant.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were so focused on each other that they failed to notice that Hannah was also there at the restaurant right now, together with her fellow artists and painters.

Hannah\'s group was sitting just two tables away from them. Hannah\'s mood became gloomy upon seeing Tristan and Zhen-Zhen, having fun while talking at their table.

The bitterness and jealousy were reflected in her eyes as she watched the husband and wife secretly.

Tristan was very attentive to Zhen-Zhen, feeding her and giving her food. He noticed that Zhen-Zhen had quite an appetite tonight.

She ate a lot and she looked like enjoying all the food in front of her.

"Wifey? Don\'t tell me you starve yourself for these past few days because I\'m not with you? Are you not eating properly lately?" Tristan asked her, feeling puzzled.

The way Zhen-Zhen had eaten tonight felt like she didn\'t eat anything for the past few days.

Zhen-Zhen bit her lower lip, feeling a little bit embarrassed.

"No, hubby! I didn\'t starve myself. I am eating properly. In fact, I ate a lot of food lately." Zhen-Zhen answered him truthfully.

Tristan: "..."

He was speechless for a moment. If Zhen-Zhen was eating like this for the past few days, he wondered how his wife maintained her slender figure. She didn\'t even gain weight at all!

"Okay, wifey! Tell me everything you wanna eat. I will order it for you!" Tristan said cheerfully.

Zhen-Zhen flashed her charming smile at him before checking the menu lists. After a few seconds, Zhen-Zhen told Tristan the food she was craving to eat.

Tristan ordered another food for her. He was amazed by Zhen-Zhen\'s appetite tonight.

They were still eating when Tristan received a call from the Branch Manager. It seemed that he had something urgent to say to Tristan.

Since the music inside the restaurant was so distracting, Tristan excused himself and told Zhen-Zhen that he would just answer the call outside.

"Wifey, just continue eating. I will be back right away after this call." Tristan said before standing up.

"Okay, hubby."

Zhen-Zhen watched Tristan\'s figure walking towards the entrance door of the restaurant. She also stood up to go to the comfort room.

Zhen-Zhen was surprised when she bumped into Hannah inside the Ladies Comfort Room.

Hannah just merely glanced at her before looking away. She was retouching her makeup in front of the mirror.

She totally ignored Zhen-Zhen as if they were strangers to each other. Zhen-Zhen didn\'t mind it as she entered one of the cubicles.

They were not the only people inside the Ladies Comfort Room. There was also a teenager who was 14.

If Zhen-Zhen could remember well, the teenager was the daughter of the potential investor Tristan was talking about a while ago.

Zhen-Zhen was still inside the cubicle when the fire alarm suddenly buzzed around the establishment. It was so loud.

Outside the comfort room, the people began to panic. The restaurant was suddenly set on fire. It came from the kitchen!

The fire was spreading very fast because of the gas leak. For some unknown reason, the fire sprinkler device was not enough to stop the fire.

Everyone was rushing to go out of the restaurant. There was also a stampede because everyone wanted to go out first not minding the people in front of them.

They kept pushing each other. Tristan who was outside the restaurant also heard the alarm and saw the commotion inside.

Someone was screaming about fire! Others already called the emergency hotlines of firefighters.

"Zhen-Zhen!" Tristan mumbled worriedly. He even dropped the phone in his hand.

Zhen-Zhen was still inside the building. He wanted to go to her but the entrance was blocked by the panicking crowd who wanted to leave the restaurant as soon as possible.

"Damn! My wife! She\'s still inside!" Tristan began to panic. He was afraid for Zhen-Zhen\'s safety.

At that certain moment, Tristan forgot that his wife was a demon god\'s daughter and she had the ability to control and manipulate fire.
