The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter
Chapter 429 Seeing Him In A Different LightThe medics quickly assisted Tristan, bringing Zhen-Zhen inside the ambulance. The ambulance left immediately to go to the nearest hospital. Hannah also arrived in the hospital and was being examined and treated right now.
Meanwhile, the investor ran toward his daughter and pulled her into a tight hug. He almost lost his hope moments ago, thinking that his daughter died inside the burning restaurant. He was so happy to see her safe and sound.
"My princess, Dad was so scared! I thought I would never see you again. I thought something bad happened to you. I would never forgive myself," The investor hugged his daughter tightly.
"Dad, I'm safe now. Don't worry. Where is Mom?" The young girl asked her father.
"She's with the other medics. She fainted moments ago, thinking that we lost you. Come let's go to her now. She will be happy to see you once she wakes up."
The father guided his daughter to another ambulance where his wife was being attended by other medics.
The father and daughter duo just reached the ambulance when the girl tugged her father's sleeve and spoke up.
"Dad, let's follow the ambulance that left moments ago. The lady was the one who protected and comforted me during the fire. If not for her, maybe I would not know what to do. She saved my life, Dad," the girl informed her father and at the same time, requested him to follow Tristan and Zhen-Zhen in the hospital.
The young girl was also worried about Zhen-Zhen. She wanted to know if she was just fine. She felt grateful to her.
Zhen-Zhen was the one who gave her strength and courage when she was frightened to death because of the fire. She comforted her very well.
Hearing the pleading tone of his beloved daughter, the father complied with her request. Besides, he wanted to thank Zhen-Zhen personally.
He felt indebted to the woman who helped his daughter so he also asked the medics to bring his wife to the same hospital where Zhen-Zhen was brought.
On the other hand, the firefighters checked and assessed the restaurant once again using their protective gear. It did not take long when they declared "fire is out". They controlled the situation already and everyone had finally calmed down.
Fortunately, there was no casualty during the incident. They would now focus on the investigation in finding out the main cause of the fire.

In the District Hospital…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTristan was pacing back and forth in the waiting area of the emergency room. The doctor and nurses were still examining and checking Zhen-Zhen's condition.
He was very restless and anxious. He hoped that his wife would just be fine. He was really petrified moments ago. He felt like he was going nuts without seeing her.
Every passing second was like torture to him. He wondered what happened to her. He was eager to know about her condition.
'Wifey, please be safe. Oh God, please don't let anything bad happen to my wife,' Tristan was silently praying in his mind.
Tristan was still trying to calm down while waiting for the doctor when the investor and his daughter arrived in the hospital.
They immediately approached Tristan, asking about Zhen-Zhen's condition.
"CEO Davis…" The investor called him out to catch his attention. He looked like his mind was very occupied right now.
Tristan stopped walking and turned to look at the source of the voice.
"Mr. Ford," he mumbled, greeting him back.
Mr. Ford's daughter immediately grabbed Tristan's arms and asked him expectantly.
"Mister, how's big sister? Is she alright?"
Tristan shook his head as he didn't have any idea yet.
"The doctor hasn't come out yet. I'm also waiting for the result of her examination," Tristan said, sighing deeply. The worries and concerns were visible on his face.
"Don't worry, Mister. Big sister is a strong woman. I believe she will just be fine," the young girl said confidently, trying to console Tristan.
Tristan gave her a grateful look and smiled at her faintly. He was also hoping that.
Mr. Ford walked closer and put his arms at his daughter's shoulders. He could see that his daughter was showing her genuine concern for her savior.
"CEO Davis, is she your wife?" Mr. Ford asked Tristan.
Tristan nodded his head, "Yes, Mr. Ford. She's my beloved wife." Tristan's words were filled with emotions.
From the look of his eyes, Mr. Ford could tell that he loved his wife very much. Now, his impressions of Tristan changed.
He thought Tristan was an immature CEO who only knew how to play with women. Someone told them that he was very irresponsible and a womanizer.
Who would have thought that he was already married and that he was so in love with his wife?
He saw how devastated Tristan was, thinking that his wife died in the fire. It seemed that the negative rumors about Tristan Davis were not entirely true.
'I misjudged him,' Mr. Ford mumbled to himself.
Tristan's negative reputation was one of the reasons he backed out on investing in the newly established branch of the Heavenly Star Enterprise.
Mr. Ford was a man of values and he didn't want to associate himself with people who toyed with other's feelings especially women's feelings.
He loved his daughter and wife so much that he couldn't bear to see other women suffering because of jerks and playboys. That's why he had a negative impression of Tristan.
But seeing him right now, worrying like this about his wife, Mr. Ford saw Tristan's good trait.
"CEO Davis, we came here to check on your wife's condition. My daughter is also worried about her. I also want to thank your wife as I heard that she was the one who protected my daughter during the fire." Mr. Ford informed Tristan of the reason why they came to see them.
"No need to thank us, Mr. Ford. My wife is really kind. With her good nature, I know she just did what she thought was right. She is the kind of person who is willing to help anyone who is in need." Tristan's admiration for his wife was reflected in his eyes.
"CEO Davis, just tell me anything you want. I am willing to do it just to repay the debt for saving my daughter."
Tristan shook his head with a smile. "You don't have to do this, Mr. Ford. I know my wife won't ask anything. Saving this young girl's life is enough for her."
He knew that Zhen-Zhen would help anyone without asking for anything as a return.
Mr. Ford was taken aback after hearing Tristan's reply. He thought Tristan would take this opportunity to ask him about the investment.
But to his surprise, Tristan didn't mention anything about work. He was just glad that his wife had saved someone's life tonight. He didn't take advantage of this situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBecause of that, Mr. Ford saw him in a different light. He confirmed that Tristan Davis was a good man and a man of integrity. He would like to work with people like him.
"Please, CEO Davis, I will not be able to sleep if I will not return the favor. Just tell me. If you need something then let me see if I can help you," Mr. Ford insisted.
Tristan looked at him helplessly. He paused for a moment, thinking what to say. The young girl was also anticipating his reply. She was just there, silently listening to the conversation of adults.
She also wanted Tristan to make a request. She liked to do something to repay the goodness she received from Zhen-Zhen.
If he wanted tons of gifts for his wife then the young girl would convince his father to buy everything for Zhen-Zhen.
"Alright, Mr. Ford, since you insist, can you do me one favor?" Tristan finally thought of a request.
"Sure, what is it! Just tell me."
"Hmm, can you please move the schedule of our meeting earlier? Can we do it as soon as possible? Actually, I am in a hurry to fix things here so that I can return home with my wife."
Mr. Ford was rendered speechless. He couldn't believe that Tristan was just asking him to move the schedule of their meeting instead of asking him directly to invest in their company branch.
"Are you sure about this? Why don't you just request me directly to invest in your company branch and the problem will be solved??!" Mr. Ford asked him exasperatedly.
Tristan just smiled sheepishly at him while scratching his face.
"Just like what I said Mr. Ford, I don't want to use my wife's good deeds for my own benefits. It's not right for me to ask you that. I also don't want to force you to invest in our company just because you feel indebted to my wife."
"I just want to move the meeting earlier so that I can explain and clear to you and others the false accusation our competitors are throwing at us. After listening to me then it's still your choice if you will still invest in our company or not."
Mr. Ford laughed out loud after hearing Tristan's explanation. He was really amused by him. He began to like Tristan more.
"Alright… then now let me help you convince the other investors." Mr. Ford said to Tristan cheerfully.
He picked up his phone and excused himself for a moment. He made several phone calls. The other investors were his good friends.
Tristan and the young girl whose name was Angel were still waiting for Mr. Ford to come back when the doctor finally came out and approached Tristan.
"Are you the family member of the patient?" The doctor asked Tristan.
"Yes, doc! I'm her husband! How is my wife?"
The doctor tapped Tristan's shoulder and said with a wide smile on her face, "Congratulations, Sir!"
