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

Chapter 158 - A Mother's Request



Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen and Isabelle were having bonding moments together with FaMo. Isabelle noticed the tulip flowers in her hand.

"Did Tristan bring you to his grandma's garden?" Isabelle asked Zhen-Zhen. There was a faint smile on her face.

She bobbed her head and said, "Yes, Mom. The garden is so beautiful. Flowers are everywhere. No wonder that spot is Tristan's favorite place here."

"That's true. That place connects him to his grandma. Lillie, can I make a request?" Isabelle told her while holding Zhen-Zhen's hand.

"Sure, Mom. Just tell me." 

"The truth is I am missing Tristan. When he went to college he became independent and started living separately from us. He was closer to his grandma rather than me. I didn't know if I made something before that caused him to distance himself from us, his parents." Isabelle shared her troubles with Zhen-Zhen.

"Mom, I'm sure that Tristan loves you so don't be sad. He is even praising and bragging to me how expert you are when it comes to cooking. The food you cook is his favorite," She said, comforting Isabelle.

With those words, Zhen-Zhen was able to lighten the heavy feelings Isabelle had a while ago. Tristan didn't directly show her that he loved his mother's cooking.

She was very happy to hear that from her daughter-in-law. She could see that Zhen-Zhen was not saying those things just to comfort her. She believed her. Tristan probably told his wife those things.

Isabelle squeezed her hands before saying, "Lillie, thank you for telling me that. This means a lot to me."

Zhen-Zhen just smiled at her.

"Regarding my request, can you make Tristan visit us every week? I want to spend time with both of you. Can you do that Lillie?" Isabelle solemnly requested her.

Zhen-Zhen promptly nodded her head with a charming smile on her face. "Sure Mom. I can do that for you. I will do my best. I will make sure that Tristan will come here every week so that you can spend more time with him."

Isabelle was grateful to hear that. She immediately hugged Zhen-Zhen. She hoped that her daughter-in-law would be able to help them become closer with Tristan once again just like when he was still young.

"Thank you, my dear daughter. I will look forward to that."

"So don't be sad anymore, Mom." Zhen-Zhen rubbed her back while softly saying those words.

Isabelle nodded her head before they broke the hug.

"Dear, can you tell me what are Tristan's likes and dislikes? I wanna know."

Zhen-Zhen took her time, thinking about what to respond to her. She put her finger on her mouth, tracing her lower lip once again. It was her habit once she was thinking of something.

After a while, Zhen-Zhen's eyes lit up as she remembered what Tristan's like.

"Mom, Tristan loves photography. He is really good when taking pictures. His shots are beautiful and amazing. Next time we visit here, I will show you." Zhen-Zhen told Isabelle with her exhilarated voice.

"Oh, it looks like my son maintained his hobby. When he was young he was already holding a camera like it was his buddy." Isabelle giggled as she remembered the young version of her son.

"He also likes outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, and mountain climbing. He said he wanted to do it once in a while to relax and relieve his stress from work. He is a nature-lover, Mom."

"Hmm, Lillie, I'm glad that you seem to know him more. Please, take care of my son. If ever you learn that he has shortcomings, can you still understand him? Can you still accept him for what he is, despite his past?" 

Isabelle was giving Zhen-Zhen a heads-up if ever she would learn about Tristan's past relationships with many women. 

Grandpa Lu told her that Lillie had still no idea about Tristan's reputation of being a Cassanova. So he warned Isabelle not to mention anything to Lillie. Isabelle agreed with Grandpa Lu's request.

Zhen-Zhen who was oblivious of the meaning behind Isabelle's words just bobbed her head in agreement. 

She was thinking that Tristan accepted her as a demon god's daughter and he never hated her so she wanted to do the same by accepting Tristan for who he was.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were still talking when two people arrived.

"Mom? Lillie?"

Isabelle and Zhen-Zhen turned around only to see Andrew and Hannah standing just a few steps away from them.

It was Andrew who called them out. Hannah remained silent as she was shocked to see Lillie inside the Davis Family Mansion.

'What is she doing here?' Hannah thought to herself. 

She frowned the moment she saw FaMo beside Zhen-Zhen. 'Even her pet?'

Isabelle stood up to greet Andrew and Hannah.

"Oh, Andrew, you're here. I forgot you told me that you will visit together with Hannah." Isabelle gave Andrew a quick hug.

Then Isabelle turned to Hannah but she didn't hug her. 

"Oh sorry dear, I can't hug you right now. I played with FaMo and have not washed my hands yet. I don't want to be the cause of your allergy." Isabelle said, cracking some jokes but Hannah took it differently.

She couldn't help but feel bitter. Isabelle became close with Lillie and even her pet right away.

Hannah concealed her negative emotions by smiling at Isabelle, pretending that it was just fine with her.

Zhen-Zhen also stood up to greet them. She flashed her friendly smile to Andrew and Hannah. But only Andrew acknowledged her by smiling back at her.

"Oh, right timing, both of you just stay over for dinner. Tristan and Lillie are here. Let's have family dinner tonight." Isabelle suggested to them, feeling excited.

"Wait, I will call my husband and inform him so that he will return home early," Isabelle added, before leaving the three of them in the living room.

Hannah's expression changed when she heard Tristan's name. She didn't expect that Tristan was also here. Reflexively, her eyes roamed around the house, searching for him.

Then Zhen-Zhen suddenly spoke up. "Hannah, can we talk?"
