Chapter 560 - Nothing Can Break Us Apart

Tristan was leisurely watching television in their bedroom when he received Zhen-Zhen's message saying that she and Bianca were going to visit Clifford in the Sy Corp.

"Argh! Wifey, why do you have to do this to me?" 

Tristan tugged his hair tightly while reading her message. A deep frown appeared on his handsome face. His bruises already healed, slowly disappearing from his face as time went by.

FaMo, who was sitting beside Tristan, noticed his reaction.

"What happened?" FaMo asked Tristan curiously.

Tristan turned to his side, looking at the cute fluffy talking black cat. FaMo was now talking to Tristan even in his cat form as long as they were alone.

"Father-in-law…" Tristan called him out with his pitiful face.

FaMo frowned seeing his expression. "What?"

"My wife came to visit Clifford to apologize on Bianca's behalf. They will try to convince him not to file a complaint against Bianca any more. Clifford submitted a complaint-affidavit against Bianca since she beat him up before." Tristan explained to FaMo.

"She did that because she was just trying to stop  Clifford from meeting my wife. I was the one who gave Bianca that kind of order."

FaMo nodded as he understood the situation.

"Ok. Why are you looking like this?"

Tristan heaved a deep sigh. "I don't want them to meet. I am always wary of Clifford. I feel like he will do something whenever Zhen-Zhen is with him. I can't trust him!"

"Hmm, so what are you waiting for? Instead of whining here, why don't you get your wife out there right now!" FaMo suggested.

Tristan's eyes lit up when he heard FaMo's suggestion. It looked like FaMo was on his side now.

"Father-in-law! Help me! Let's teleport there so that it can be faster," Tristan shamelessly asked FaMo while rubbing his palms in front of him.

'Seriously? This guy was the one who forbade Zhen-Zhen from using her powers. But here is he, asking me to use power for his own benefits.'

FaMo just shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright! Let's go to your wife now."

*****

Meanwhile, at the Sy Corp, Clifford and Dexter were still speechless after hearing the last remarks of Bianca.

She just used Zhen-Zhen's name to make Clifford concede and take back his complaint against her.

Of course, Clifford couldn't say no, especially now that Zhen-Zhen was there in front of him. She just made an effort to see him. 

He bet she headed to the Sy Corp straight coming from the University of Imperial Knight since she was still wearing her uniform.

"I can do that. I will forget about everything and not pursue this incident but in one condition…"

Zhen-Zhen and Bianca exchanged glances with one another.

Zhen-Zhen: "What condition?"

Bianca: "Condition??!"

Zhen-Zhen and Bianca asked him in unison.

"Lillie will have to eat dinner with me tonight!" Clifford declared to them with a charming smile on his face. His eyes gleamed with excitement.

Zhen-Zhen: "..."

Dexter: "..."

Bianca: "No way!!! Over my dead body!"

Bianca was the one who reacted right away. Clifford squinted his eyes at her. He was losing his patience with this woman.

"If you want you can go with me and have a dinner date. But not my lady boss! She is off-limits. I might lose my job as well if I let that happen," Bianca further added.

Clifford was about to refute her remarks when suddenly they heard a familiar voice at the entrance door.

"That's true. My wife is not going anywhere or eating dinner with someone. She will eat with me at home. At Our Home." Tristan emphasized his last words. 

Clifford and Dexter didn't expect to see Tristan there. How was he able to enter? The staff in the lobby also didn't inform them about his arrival.

'And what's with the black cat in his arms?' Both men were eyeing Tristan in confusion.

Unknown to them, FaMo and Tristan didn't pass through the lobby. They teleported directly to Clifford's office where FaMo could feel Zhen-Zhen's aura.

"Boss Tristan!" Bianca called his name enthusiastically as if she had just found their hero.

Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen just smiled at Tristan sheepishly. 

'It looked like I made my husband worry about me again. Even FaMo accompanied him and used teleport just to come here.' Zhen-Zhen thought to herself, feeling a little bit guilty.

She could feel it. Tristan was a little bit upset and jealous.

Tristan, who was carrying FaMo, walked over to approach them. He immediately moved to Zhen-Zhen's side.

"Wifey, you don't have to come here and apologize to him. If he wants to file a complaint then be it. We have competent attorneys on our sides. I will ask Jake and Blake to personally handle Bianca's concern," Tristan said, reassuring Zhen-Zhen.

Bianca felt grateful upon hearing that. At least, they didn't have to follow Clifford Sy's demand. She now had a strong backup. Tristan would definitely help her.

Meanwhile, Clifford clenched his fists. He was pissed off by Tristan's arrogance. He was talking proudly as if this was his territory.

'Did he forget that he is inside the Sy Corp's building right now? He is not welcome here. Who the hell let this guy in?'

Seeing the contorted face of Clifford, Tristan couldn't help but smirk at him. Tristan was also furious right now.

'How dare he invite my wife for another dinner? What is he plotting again this time? When will he stop this foolish revenge? Is he not getting tired from all of this?' Tristan sighed deeply at those thoughts.

"Bianca, please guide my wife outside this room. There is something I just want to tell Mr. Sy." Tristan ordered Bianca.

Zhen-Zhen held Tristan's hand. "Tristan, please…"

Tristan c.a.r.e.s.sed Zhen-Zhen's face and said, "Don't worry, wifey. I am not going to start a fight. Promise, I will just talk to him."

After saying that, Tristan handed over FaMo to Zhen-Zhen.

When Zhen-Zhen, Bianca, and FaMo left the office, Tristan decided to confront Clifford. Dexter also followed Zhen-Zhen and Bianca outside, giving the two men privacy.

"Mr. Sy, let's talk like gentlemen. Okay? I'm not here to start a fight. But can you please stop bothering my wife?" Tristan said with his pleading tone.

Clifford raised an eyebrow and said, "What if I don't want to? What will you do, Mr. Davis? Will you ask that bodyguard to beat me again?"

Tristan could hear a hint of sarcasm in Clifford's voice.

"Stop this foolish revenge, Clifford. You are not a kid anymore. Please stop this nonsense already."

Clifford just let out a dry laugh.

When he stopped laughing, Clifford's expression had become serious. He met Tristan's gaze, staring straight into his eyes.

"Who said I am still doing this just for the sake of revenge? Have you not thought that I have another reason for acting like this, trying to get closer with Lillie?"

Tristan was taken aback when he heard that. Soon, his expression darkened as he gritted his teeth.

'Is he telling me that he already has feelings for my wife that's why he is chasing after her?' Tristan hated these thoughts.

Tristan took a deep breath to calm himself.

"Give up already, Clifford. Lillie is already my wife. We love each other. Nothing and no one can break us apart," Tristan said to him with so much conviction.

Clifford smirked at him. "Really? Then we will see."
