"So last question Mr. and Mrs. Davis… When did you know that you already love each other? I wonder if it was love at first sight."

The last question of the reporter made Tristan and Zhen-Zhen reminisce their moments. They didn't know the exact answer to that question. Was it really love at first sight?

This time Zhen-Zhen and Tristan took a lot of time before they answered the question. They were asking themselves when did they fall in love with each other.

Zhen-Zhen was the first one who gave her answer.

"Honestly, I don't know when it started. I didn't even know the meaning of love before. I am not referring to the love that we receive from our parents. I am referring to what it means to be in love with someone." Zhen-Zhen tried to explain to them.

"After meeting Tristan and being with him every day just gave me the sense of warmth and security. I feel so happy and I wanna treasure every moment with him. I feel the need to be by his side always. If I see him sad, I am feeling sad too. If he's in pain, I'm in pain too."

Zhen-Zhen was saying this as she remembered Tristan's pain before when he was still in love with Hannah.

"I want to ease his pain. I don't want to see him sad… I only wish for him to be happy… that I am willing to do anything for him. Maybe, at those times, I was already in love with him."

Everyone could hear the sincerity in her voice. They were touched by her words. At that certain moment, they could tell that Zhen-Zhen aka Lillie Davis was so in love with her husband, Tristan.

After she said her piece, Tristan pulled her against his body and planted a soft kiss on her forehead.

He really loved this woman. She was so pure and innocent, very honest with her feelings.

The reporters were enjoying the scene they were witnessing right now. They were so glad to see the couple happily in love with each other.

Now, they were excited to hear Tristan's answer. Tristan cleared his throat first.

"Cough! Cough! Now it's my turn." Tristan glanced at Zhen-Zhen with a doting smile on his handsome face.

After that, he moved his gaze back to the reporters.

"As you all know, Tristan Davis is a total jerk! A certified womanizer. A player. A Cassanova or whatever."

The reporters laughed because Tristan was just making fun of his bad reputation before. He already accepted and admitted that he was a total jerk before.

At least he acknowledged his mistake bravely in front of so many reporters. Remember, this was also being broadcasted live.

p "You also learned that I was heartbroken because of my best friend who is now my brother's fiancee."

The reporters nodded their heads. Almost everyone saw his viral video when he confessed his feelings to Hannah in his drunken state.

"But that was already in the past. The video you saw happened even before I met Lillie. My life changed the moment she came into my life."

"I won't lie to everyone. I think I was already attracted to her the first time I saw her. She's so beautiful that I couldn't take my eyes off her. She bewitched me with her innocent beauty and pure heart." Tristan admitted to them.

The reporters didn't doubt his words. Seeing Zhen-Zhen in front of them, they were certain that any guy would surely fall for her mesmerizing beauty.

"I already started to care for her. I just woke up one day and realized that I already had fallen for her deeply. I was just dumb and fool not to realize it sooner."

"What made you realize that you loved her, Mr. Davis?" Dahlia asked him expectantly. Tristan's and Zhen-Zhen's love story felt similar to those TV dramas.

"The moment I thought I was about to lose her. That's when I realized I couldn't live without her… that I wanted her to be by my side always."

"All I can say now… despite my ugly past, I'm so happy that I met my wife. She changed my life. She changed me for good. And I will protect our love no matter what. I got a second chance to redeem myself and have a fresh start with her."

The reporters were at a loss for words. They didn't expect that Tristan Davis could change instantly just because of one woman.

They could still remember how he hated commitments and how he had sworn that he would never marry someone.

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, my wife and I are done answering your five questions. Now, can you let us pass?" Tristan asked them politely.

They obeyed Tristan right away and made a path for them. Tristan and Zhen-Zhen went back to their table to join Grandpa Lu and Tristan's parents.

When they reached the table, Grandpa Lu immediately pulled his grandson into a hug while patting his back. "You did a great job, grandson!"

Grandpa Lu, Lucas, and Isabelle had seen Tristan's and Zhen-Zhen's interviews a while ago. The smile on their faces didn't leave as they listened to Tristan and Zhen-Zhen. They were aware that the husband and wife were being honest with their feelings.

Aside from them, Hannah and Andrew saw their interviews. Hannah had the urge to butt in and tell everyone that Zhen-Zhen was not a mountain goddess nor a forest fairy but a witch… an evil witch!

Fortunately, she was able to control herself from doing that. She would just embarrass herself in front of everyone since she didn't have any proof as of now.

She just tried to calm herself down and focused her attention on Andrew who looked like he was bothered by something. He was not paying attention to the interviews. Instead, he roamed his eyes around the venue, looking for someone.

The frown on his forehead deepened when he didn't see the figure he was searching for. Soon, the two of them decided to join the Davis Family.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were surprised to see Hannah with Andrew. They didn't know that she had already arrived in the City of Empire.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen exchanged meaningful glances with one another. They decided to hide the truth from Andrew hoping that Hannah would fix herself and clear her mind.

But why did they feel like they became unfair to Andrew? They wondered if they did the right thing of not telling Andrew about Hannah's action.

Meanwhile, Andrew approached Zhen-Zhen, asking her something.

"Lillie, did you see Alveena?" Andrew's face was painted with worries and concerns for Alveena. He felt alarmed when he didn't see her inside the venue.

Zhen-Zhen shook her head upon hearing that. She didn't see Alveena. "I thought she was with you."

"We got separated. She said she was going back here. How about you, brother, did you see her?"

"No, I didn't. Why don't you try calling her? Maybe she is just roaming around somewhere," Tristan suggested.

However, Zhen-Zhen opposed Tristan's suggestion. "Don't call her. Don't disturb her."

"Why?"

Tristan and Andrew asked Zhen-Zhen in unison. She smiled at them meaningfully before answering them.

"Because Alveena might be with someone she likes right now. She told me that she planned on confessing her feelings to the man she loves tonight. So don't disturb her, okay?"

Tristan: "..."

Andrew clenched his fists upon hearing those words. The man Alveena was referring to was none other than Andrew. She did confess her feelings for him tonight.

But unfortunately, Hannah came at the wrong time. She came to wake up Andrew and reminded him that he couldn't accept Alveena's feelings because he already had Hannah. They were still committed to each other.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen had no idea that Andrew was having a hard time right now. He wanted to find Alveena but he couldn't leave because Hannah was there.

Hannah tried her best to ignore Zhen-Zhen's and Tristan's presence. She just entertained Isabelle and Lucas whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Andrew was there at their table, but his mind was wandering somewhere. He was thinking of Alveena.

'Where is she? Where did she go? Is she alright? Damn, Andrew! This is your fault! You hurt her!' Andrew was cursing himself inwardly.

Andrew tried calling her phone number but it was unattended. Alveena had switched off her phone. He was now worried sick about her. When he could no longer stand it, Andrew stood up and excused himself.

Fortunately, Hannah was talking to Isabelle and Lucas that she didn't notice that Andrew already left their table.

He roamed around the venue, trying his best to find Alveena. But to his disappointment, there was no sign of Alveena. She already left.

Andrew felt very helpless and desperate. He wanted to see her and talk to her but he didn't know where to find her. He was afraid that Alveena would try to avoid him from now on. Could he handle that just in case?

'Alveena… where are you?'
