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

Chapter 611 A Threat To Zhen-Zhen's Life

Liam, Tristan, and the Davis Family were still gathered inside the room, discussing what happened.

"Brother, I'm sorry. I think this is partly my fault. Hannah got emotional because I hurt her feelings. Her mind is clouded by hatred and jealousy." Andrew apologized to Tristan.

"Breaking off the engagement was a huge blow to her. It forced her to do something evil like this."

Tristan squinted his eyes at Andrew. "Stop talking like that! Don't blame yourself. Hannah's crime is not your fault. And please don't ever justify her actions by blaming yourself."

"Hannah already changed. She is selfish. She only cares about herself. She had never ever considered your feelings when she tried to chase after me. And now, she even harmed Lillie and our baby."

"I will never forgive her for hurting my wife and my child," Tristan said through his gritted teeth.

"I will not let this slide. Even if you ask me not to be involved, this time I will not standstill. So Andrew, Tristan… don't stop me! She has to pay the price!" Grandpa Lu said with so much conviction.

Isabelle and Lucas agreed with Grandpa Lu's decision. This issue was not just a small matter. It involved the life of a person… the life of Zhen-Zhen and Little Davis.

Everyone was heartbroken. The Davis Family was looking forward to the day Little Davis would be born in this world.

Was it really impossible to happen now? How could they tell this to Zhen-Zhen?

Liam stood up. Although he wanted to stay there for Zhen-Zhen, he knew only Tristan could help her in times like this.

If ever Zhen-Zhen would lose control of herself after knowing what happened to their baby, Liam would prepare himself to fight her.

He was still a guardian warrior. Keeping the innocent people safe was his priority. Though he loved Zhen-Zhen, he would not let her hurt and kill anyone in this world.

As much as he could, he didn't want Zhen-Zhen to turn into a demoness who would try to destroy everything in this world just like her father, the demon god.

"Tristan, Chairman Lu, Andrew, Mr. and Mrs. Davis, I will leave now. If you need my help, don't hesitate to call me."

Liam gave his contact number to Tristan. The Davis Family thanked Liam for his help tonight.

Andrew was the one who accompanied Liam to see him off. They just got out of the room when Andrew had spoken to him.

"Liam, I didn't expect that we would see each other again under this circumstance. But I am glad to see you. Do you still remember me?" Andrew asked Liam.

Liam let out a husky laugh hearing Andrew's question.

"Of course, I do. I will never forget my drinking buddy that night. You are the first person who shared your sad love story with a stranger, pouring your heart out," Liam responded, teasing Andrew.

"What a small world, right? So I guess I understand your story now. Hannah was your fiancee who confessed to Tristan, your brother. And Lillie was your sister-in-law. The four of you had complicated relationships… and ended up like this."

Liam shook his head while clicking his tongue. Then he patted Andrew's shoulder.

"If you need a drinking buddy again, just call me. Okay?" Liam added.

Andrew nodded his head while giving him a faint smile.

"Thanks, Liam! Let's keep in touch!"

"Yeah, let's do that. I will drive you home," Andrew volunteered.

"No need, Andrew. There is somewhere I need to go. Just stay here with them. Your brother needs your support."

"Hmm, alright! Just inform me if you reach your home."

Liam went there using the dimension-hopping spell. He didn't bring his car so he had to find a secluded place wherein he could cast the dimension-hopping spell again.

But this time, he needed to go somewhere to confirm it. He had to know who gave those potions to Hannah.

"Andrew, can I ask you something?"

"Sure, just tell me."

"Can you give me Hannah's address? I want to know who gives her those potions."

Andrew fell silent for a moment after seeing the serious expression of Liam. He was used to seeing his gentle expression while smiling.

But this time, he could feel that Liam was also angry. Was it because of Zhen-Zhen? Andrew pondered to himself.

Andrew gave Liam Hannah's address. But he was not sure if Hannah would go home tonight. She might go to her parent's home.

"Liam, can I also ask you something?"

"Sure."

"Why are you knowledgeable about these potions? And how did you enter our house? You just suddenly appeared from out of nowhere. Perhaps… are you also an extraordinary person just like my sister-in-law?"

"I've seen how you stopped her. Tristan and I couldn't even restrain her a while ago. You are also strong."

Liam could see the curiosity and confusion in Andrew's eyes. He was eager to know Liam's identity too.

Liam turned to meet Andrew's gaze. After a few seconds, Liam nodded his head with a smile.

"Yes, I am also an extraordinary person just like Lillie. She is not the only one here. But we are trying to hide our ability to live a normal life in this world."

"Others will be afraid or even judge and call us monsters because we are different from others. But I hope you will not see Lillie that way."

Andrew gave Liam a reassuring smile. "My sister-in-law and you… both of you are not monsters in my eyes. Some ordinary humans are more evil than you. I mean, you are not evil at all, but other people are."

"I will treat Lillie just like before. Nothing will change. And I'm not afraid of her. I am also worried about her… as her friend and brother-in-law."

Liam felt relieved to hear that.

"I'm so glad that she became part of this family."

Liam was still bearing the guilt. His ancestors were the ones responsible for sealing an innocent child, stealing from her the opportunity to live and grow as other humans.

They took her parents away from her. They became narrow-minded, judging Zhen-Zhen even though she didn't do anything wrong to them.

Now that the other guardian warriors were there, it would threaten Zhen-Zhen's life. Liam had sworn that he would try his best to convince other guardian warriors that they didn't need to kill the demon god's daughter anymore.

*****

When Liam and Andrew left, Grandpa Lu, Lucas, and Isabelle also went out of the room. They decided to go to their respective rooms and wait for Zhen-Zhen to regain her consciousness.

A lot of things happened in just one night, they were still devastated thinking that they lost Little Davis.

For now, they had to take a rest for now. After what happened tonight, everything would never be the same.

Grandpa Lu was thinking hard of what he should do to punish Hannah for what she had done to Zhen-Zhen and Little Davis.

"Hannah… I didn't expect that you would be greedy and selfish just like your parents. I will not let you ruin the relationship between Tristan and Andrew. I will not let you hurt Lillie again."

*****

Meanwhile, inside their room, Tristan was still waiting for Zhen-Zhen to wake up. He was racking his brain so hard. He didn't know what he should tell her that their baby was gone.

Tristan was holding Zhen-Zhen's hand as he continued to cry silently.

After a while, he stood up and picked the crystal that was extracted from Zhen-Zhen's body. Tristan brought it on his chest, hugging it tightly.

"My baby… forgive this incapable father of yours. I was not able to protect you. I am so useless. I'm so sorry… I'm so sorry." Tristan continued crying.

"Is this my punishment for being a jerk before? Is this my karma? I should be the one to die, not my innocent child… my poor baby…"

Tristan's whimpers and painful cries reverberated inside the room. He didn't know what to do. He didn't know how he would comfort Zhen-Zhen because even he, himself, couldn't accept the fact that their baby was gone. How much more Zhen-Zhen?

"Father-in-law… FaMo… where are you? Please, we need you. Please, tell me that you protected our Little Davis."

Tristan's tears continued to pour like raindrops. He didn't notice that his tears were falling on the crystal which he was hugging.

Every drop of tears that were touching the crystals were sending warmth to that frozen object inside that crystal. It could also feel Tristan's pain and sadness.

Tristan was in that state when Zhen-Zhen finally woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Tristan crying.

She sat up and cupped Tristan's face. That was the time he realized that Zhen-Zhen was already awake.

"Tristan, what happened? Why are you crying?"

"Zhen-Zhen…" Tristan had difficulty uttering some words.

"Our baby…" Tristan couldn't finish his words as he continued sobbing.

"I'm sorry, Zhen-Zhen… I'm sorry. It's my fault…"

Zhen-Zhen looked confused but she could feel Tristan's pain. She didn't know the reason why he was crying. She wanted to comfort him.

Zhen-Zhen embraced Tristan while stroking his hair.

"Don't be sad, Tristan. I am here and our baby. Our baby will be sad too if you are sad. It's not good for Little Davis to be sad."

Tristan became sadder hearing those words from Zhen-Zhen. 'My wife needs to know the truth. I should tell her now.'

Tristan broke the hug and cupped her face. He looked straight into her eyes.

"Zhen-Zhen, listen to me… Our baby… our baby… is gone."

But instead of being sad, Zhen-Zhen smiled at Tristan, shaking her head while wiping Tristan's tears.

"No, Tristan. Our baby is not gone. Little Davis is safe…"
