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

Meanwhile, inside the room where Zhen-Zhen was, an orange light surrounded her body. It was glowing brightly.

Then Zhen-Zhen heard a voice in her subconscious, calling her name.

"Zhen-Zhen…"

When Zhen-Zhen opened her eyes, she found herself back in the cave that served as their home.

She was standing at the center of the cave when she heard another voice calling her name.

"Zhen-Zhen…"

Then she saw an orange fire in the form of a human.

"Who are you?" She softly asked.

It did not take long when the oranged fire disappeared as it turned into a human form.

Zhen-Zhen gasped in surprise when she recognized the person in front of her.

"Mo-Mo? Mother…" She mumbled with her trembling voice.

Eva smiled at Zhen-Zhen lovingly and nodded her head.

"Yes, my daughter. It's me, your mother."

Zhen-Zhen immediately ran in her direction and hugged her mother upon reaching her spot.

"Mo-Mo, I missed you! I missed you so much!" 

Zhen-Zhen's tears were pouring like raindrops.

Eva just hugged her back. Her tears were also falling down her cheeks.

"I missed you too, my dear daughter. Please forgive your Mo-Mo for leaving you behind in this harsh world. I'm sorry, Zhen-Zhen. I just want to protect you and your Fa-Fa."

"Don't apologize, Mother. I understand. I am not blaming you and Fa-Fa. I love you and I miss you both!" Zhen-Zhen hugged her mother tightly.

Eva broke the hug and caressed Zhen-Zhen's face.

"Thank you, my dear Zhen-Zhen. I know you understand because you are also a mother now. You successfully awakened the orange fire dragon because of your mother's instinct. Your desire to protect your child and your loved ones will give you strength."

"I'm so glad that I was given another chance to meet you. I'm sorry, my daughter. If I have to leave you again. But always remember that I love you so much and I will always be watching you."

After saying those words, Eva kissed Zhen-Zhen on her forehead and hugged her for one last time before she vanished again.

Back in the living area…

Tristan was sitting on the sofa facing his parents, Andrew, Grandpa Lu, Hannah, and his two cousins. They were now awake. 

Among the people inside, only Mark and Daniel didn't witness Zhen-Zhen unleashing her power.

Everyone was quiet. No one was speaking among them. Hannah was still shocked when she was almost killed by Zhen-Zhen a while ago.

Grandpa Lu, Andrew, Isabelle, and Lucas didn't know what to say. They still couldn't believe what they had seen moments ago. They wondered if they were just dreaming or not.

Meanwhile, Mark and Daniel didn't know what was happening. They were supposed to bring Zhen-Zhen to the hospital. But they were puzzled why they were still sitting in the living room.

There was a gloomy atmosphere surrounding them. Tristan looked frightening. His silence and his dark expression could send shivers down their spines. 

"Ahem, cousin? Where is Lillie? Is she okay now? She fainted a while ago. Should I just call our family doctor?" Daniel was the first one who broke the silence.

Everyone turned in his direction. They had different reactions on their faces.

Tristan clenched his fists while gritting his teeth. Everyone was waiting for him to speak up.

"My wife fell ill because of the milk she drank. Her life was put in danger… and my baby… our baby…" Tristan couldn't finish his words.

Grandpa Lu's eyes widened upon hearing that. "What happened to my granddaughter and my great-grandchild?"

"What did you put in her milk? Did you try to poison her?" Grandpa Lu turned to Mark and Daniel. He shot them a cold sharp glare.

Grandpa Lu didn't care about what he saw a while ago. He needed to know what happened to Little Davis and Zhen-Zhen.

"Grandpa, we didn't put anything in her milk! Please believe us!" Daniel dropped to the floor, kneeling in front of them.

"Grandpa, Tristan, we created trouble in the past. But we don't have the heart to hurt your wife and baby. Please believe us! We didn't put something in her drink!" Mark also tried to convince them.

Hannah felt relieved. Mark and Daniel were now the ones being blamed for what happened. But this was not the result she wanted so she spoke up.

"S-She is a witch… Lillie is not a human… she tried to kill me…" Hannah had spoken with her trembling voice. 

Andrew turned to Hannah worriedly. He could see the fear in her eyes. He hugged Hannah to comfort her.

Tristan narrowed his eyes when he heard that. He tried to control himself but he could no longer stand it. Hannah was playing a victim again, blaming Zhen-Zhen.

Tristan stood up and approached Hannah and Andrew. After reaching their spot, he yanked Hannah's hand, pulling her away from Andrew.

"Tristan, what are you doing?" Andrew asked his brother exasperatedly.

Without replying to Andrew, Tristan slapped Hannah on the face, not only once but twice.

*Pak!*

*Pak!*

Everyone was stupefied when they witnessed that. Tristan never lay a finger or hurt Hannah in the past.

"Tristan, are you crazy?!! Why did you do that?!!" Andrew yelled at his brother and pushed him. He moved in front of Hannah, shielding her against Tristan.

Lucas and Isabelle also stood up to stop the brothers from fighting each other.

"Don't you dare protect that bitch, Andrew! She is the one who has the motive to hurt my wife. I believe Mark and Daniel!"

"My wife knew that it was Hannah! That's why she attacked her! She was just trying to protect our baby. She was mad and furious. Even I, myself, want to kill her right now! Because of her, we lost our baby! Did you hear me, Andrew?! Our baby is gone!"

"This is not the only time she tried to harm my wife!!! Hannah tried to kill my wife by trapping her inside the comfort room when the fire broke out in the restaurant abroad!"

"But do you know what? She still saved Hannah's life! She still gave her a second chance to redeem herself! But it was a mistake! A great mistake!!!"

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Tristan.
