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

Myrene's first day of work went smoothly. It's just that Christian seemed too off when talking to her. She felt like Christian was avoiding her. Aside from asking for water, Christian never called her again.

He was very hands-on in every paperwork. He didn't ask his secretary for help. Christian was used to working alone rather than mingling with others.

On the other hand, Myrene was easy to get along well with. She immediately found new friends in the company. She went out together with the finance team whose office was near her table.

During lunchtime, most of the single ladies from finance team interviewed Myrene to get more information about their new CEO who was oozing with charm and sex appeal. 

"Hey, how is your Boss? Does he treat you well?" a curious finance officer asked Myrene expectantly.

Myrene just smiled awkwardly and said, "He is fine. But I feel like he doesn't need a secretary like me. He wants to do his job alone."

"Oh My Gosh! That means, your workload is not heavy so don't feel disappointed. How I wish I was his secretary. I can get to see his gorgeous face every day!" Another lady mumbled with her dreamy eyes.

"Our new CEO is the most handsome man in this company. He even surpassed his father, Tristan Davis."

Myrene's eyes gleamed when she heard Tristan's name. "By the way, where is Mr. Tristan Davis now and his wife?" Myrene simply asked them.

"It's been so long since the last time we saw the couple. They said the couple was going around the world, traveling all they wanted. They are so sweet, right? I like them as a couple goal!"

Myrene just smiled faintly. 

"Why are you getting serious, My? Are you disappointed in not seeing them here? Mr. and Mrs. Davis are truly an amazing couple. They are the model of this company."

"Oh, It's nothing. I am just wondering. They said Tristan and Lillie Davis are both approachable. But their son is very different from them. He is aloof and indifferent." Myrene shared her thoughts with them.

"Oh, we couldn't blame him. Maybe it had something to do with his past experience during his childhood." 

"Past experience during childhood? What do you mean?" Myrene's attention was so focused on them, wanting to hear their story.

"There was this rumor before. They said Christian and his twin sister were kidnapped when they were 5 years old. And it happened during Mr. and Mrs. Davis' wedding."

"They were kidnapped? But why? Who took them? What happened to the kidnappers?" Myrene bombarded them with so many questions. She had to know what happened so that she could understand why her boss was acting like this.

"We don't have much information about that. They said that the Davis Family suppressed the news. They found them on the same day with the help of the secret task force. No one disclosed who the kidnappers were. Maybe some competitors in business." The finance officer just shrugged her shoulders.

"Do you think our CEO suffered from an emotional trauma? So he could barely trust anyone?" Myrene asked them again.

"Maybe yes, maybe not. Why don't you ask him yourself?" Another female employee said, teasing Myrene.

Myrene just pouted her lips. "He doesn't want to talk to me. His expression seems to tell me 'Don't bother me!'. How can I ask him?"

The other staff just let out a soft giggle as Myrene put on a pitiful look on her face.

"Just take your time. Who knows, you might get close to him as the day goes by. Just be an obedient secretary and serve him well! If I were you… I would even try to seduce him using my charm! Our CEO is so hot!"

Myrene could only shake her head helplessly.

'I guess, gaining his trust is not that easy. I should work hard for that,' Myrene thought to herself, sighing deeply.

"Let's go back now. Our lunch break is done!"

The four ladies stood up and went back to their respective stations. Myrene was still thinking about Christian. She sat on her chair, her eyes fixed on Christian's office. She wondered what he was doing inside.

"I envy his tiger. At least, Sir Christian treats his pet so well." She murmured.

It did not take long when Myrene took her phone from her drawer. She texted her mother. She just found out that Tristan and Lillie Davis were no longer in the City of Empire and no one had seen them in the Heavenly Star for a long time.

[ Mom… I have news for you. Tristan Davis and Lillie Davis are no longer here. They are traveling around the world. ]

Myrene sent her message after composing it. Just a few seconds later, her phone beeped, receiving a new message from her mother.

[ Just focus on your job. Remember, you should get close to your Boss. How's your first day? Is he treating you well? ]

Myrene took another deep sigh after reading her mother's message. 'Why are they all telling me to get close to my Boss?'

[ Don't worry about me, Mom. I can deal with him just fine. It will take time for me to gain his trust but I guess I can do it. ] Myrene wanted to reassure her mother.

[ Good. I believe in you. Just be careful always. ]

[ I know Mom. Trust me. ]

Complicated emotions flashed through her eyes after the exchange of messages with her mother. Then she glanced at Christian's office once again.

She decided to stand up and check on him. She was about to knock when she heard his voice from the inside. Christian was talking to someone over the phone. She didn't have any intention to eavesdrop on his conversation but she heard her name being mentioned.

"Gramps! I want Myrene to be transferred to another department. Just hire someone else. I prefer a male secretary!"

Myrene narrowed her eyes when she heard that. She even clenched her fist. 'What's wrong with having a female secretary?'
