In connection to the Celebration of the Centennial Year of the City of Empire, the Mayor invited the prominent businessn who would join and participate during the big event. They were gathered in the City Hall for a very important eting.
There would be a big Gala. During that Gala, top companies in the City of Empire would be given the chance to showcase their best products.
Many prominent people inside and outside of the City were invited. This event for those companies was a great opportunity to attract investors and advertise their products.
In relation to that, each participating company was donating 30 percent of their earnings that they would get during the event. The donation would be used to improve infrastructures in the City of Empire.
Aside from that, a portion of the donation would be allocated to the projects focusing on tourism and humanitarian activities of the city.
Sy Corp and Heavenly Star Enterprise were just two of those top companies who would also join the product showcasing activity during the Gala. Other big companies would not let this opportunity go to waste.
Every company sent their representatives to attend this eting. They would tackle the preparation and the flow of the program during the events.
Tristan personally attended this eting because he wanted to be hands-on in the upcoming event. That was the day he would announce in the public about his marriage and introduce his lovely wife to everyone.
Unexpectedly, Clifford Sy was also the one representing his company in this eting. With that, Tristan's and Clifford's paths crossed again.
Tristan had complicated emotions after seeing Clifford in the eting room. Clifford was also surprised to see Tristan. He didn't expect that they would et very soon after Tristan ca back from abroad.
As usual, Clifford just acted indifferently, ignoring Tristan's presence. Tristan just maintained his calm composure although deep inside he was dying to confront Clifford.
Tristan tried his best to be more patient. He made a ntal note that after the eting he would try to talk to Clifford. The eting lasted for two hours.
Tristan waited for Clifford outside the City Hall. He asked Matthew to go back first in the company since he would talk to Clifford first. He just hoped that Clifford would not ignore him this ti.
Since this was related to Zhen-Zhen, Tristan would not tolerate Clifford. He just hoped that Clifford did not approach his wife intentionally just because of revenge.
After a few minutes of waiting, Clifford finally ca out of the City Hall together with his assistant, Dexter. Clifford stayed behind since he had discussed sothing with the Mayor. It was not related to the event but to their new project.
Tristan took a deep breath before walking toward Clifford.
"Mr. Sy, I wonder if you can lend a few minutes of your ti. Can we talk for a mont? There's sothing very important I wanna talk to you." Tristan calmly said to Clifford.
Honestly, Clifford was caught off guard when Tristan approached him first. It never crossed his mind that Tristan would take his initiative to talk to him.
Clifford didn't give his answer right away. He just stared at Tristan with an indescribable expression on his face. Sensing the heavy tension surrounding the two n, Dexter imdiately excused himself to give the two n privacy.
"Don't worry, this will not take long," Tristan said, convincing Clifford.
In the end, Clifford just nodded his head, signaling Tristan to follow him. They chose a spot where there were no people passing by.
Since Tristan said that this conversation would be quick, the two n never bothered to find a place where the two of them could sit down comfortably. They just stood in front of each other, Clifford was leaning on the wall while Tristan was facing him.
"I will not beat around the bush, Mr. Sy. I want to talk to you about my wife. Did you intentionally approach her because of our past grudges?" Tristan asked Clifford directly.
Clifford's lips stretched into a smirk. It seed that Tristan already learned that he t his wife. Instead of answering Tristan, Clifford asked him in return. "Why are you asking this, Mr. Davis?"
Tristan frowned since he didn't like the way Clifford responded to him. But he already expected Clifford to act like this. Clifford won't be honest with him since he was treating Tristan as his mortal enemy.
He could see in Clifford's eyes his hatred directed to him. Tristan could only sigh deeply. Since Clifford didn't want to say his intention of eting his wife, Tristan had no choice but to warn him.
"Mr. Sy, my wife has nothing to do with our past grudges. Don't get her involved with our conflict. If you approached him with an ill motive then I have to warn you. Just stay away from my wife. Don't you ever use her just to get back at . I will never allow that." Tristan's expression beca more serious.
"Co at any ti. Attack and my company. I know you are the one responsible for creating troubles for our branches abroad. You can do that. But don't you ever involve my wife in this! Just leave her alone." Tristan said with his stern voice.
However, Clifford was not intimidated by his warning at all. He laughed dryly and sneered at him.
"Why, Mr. Davis? Are you afraid that your wife will be stolen from you? Hmm, maybe you are not that confident about yourself. Well, to think about it, how can a woman like your wife stay faithful to a man like you? You don't deserve her, Mr. Davis. She needs a guy who is better than you… a man like ," Clifford didn't restrain himself from provoking Tristan.
He was declaring war right now. He would not back down. There's no need to hide his true intention anymore.
"I wonder what will you feel if your beloved wife will cheat on you?" Clifford added while looking at Tristan aningfully.
Tristan's face darkened after hearing that. He clenched his fists, trying his best to restrain himself from punching Clifford's face right now.
