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

~ Leo's Private Villa ~

Just twenty minutes after Tristan and Grandpa Lu arrived at the headquarters of the special forces, they immediately located Zhen-Zhen's location through her phone.

Zhen-Zhen was carrying her phone inside her pocket that Liam failed to notice. Tristan and Grandpa Lu together with the special forces under the Davis Family left the headquarters in a rush to go to that location.

Now, Leo's Private Villa was surrounded by armed forces and private soldiers who were working under the Davis Family's command.

Leo, who was leisurely taking a nap inside his villa, was disturbed by the sounds of helicopters and other vehicles. It did not take long when his security guard informed him about the situation.

Leo didn't expect that he would wake up facing lots of highly armed men surrounding his villa.

"What is happening here? Who are these men? Why are they here?" Leo mumbled, looking at his surroundings with utter disbelief.

A group of men started approaching him. Leo was now standing at the front of his big mansion.

"What are you doing here in my private villa? This is trespassing! Who gives you the right to set your foot here?" 

Leo yelled at them. He was furious. He didn't want people going into his villa, how much more an army of men?

Tristan and Grandpa Lu stepped up and faced Leo. Leo's frown deepened upon seeing the grandfather and grandson duo. He was familiar with these two.

'What the hell? Two members of the Davis Family are here! What do they want from me?' Leo marveled at that thought. 

"We are here to find my missing granddaughter. This is the location where we traced her signal coming from her phone," Grandpa Lu informed Leo.

"Missing granddaughter? As far as I know, no one has entered this villa since this morning or else my security should have informed me already."

"We didn't mean any harm. We just want to search this place peacefully and find her." Grandpa Lu was the one talking to Leo since Tristan already joined the search team. They started searching the area, looking for Zhen-Zhen.

Leo could only heave a sigh of frustration. He had no choice but to cooperate. Going against Grandpa Lu would not give him any benefits.

Tristan and others were following the signal locator. And it brought them to the green fields where Liam and Zhen-Zhen arrived after he teleported back from Tristan's penthouse.

It did not take long when they lost the signal. Tristan was now standing on the same spot under the big old chestnut tree where Liam put down Zhen-Zhen. However, there was no sign of Liam and Zhen-Zhen there. They vanished again.

"Sir, this is the spot where we last saw the signal before it disappeared," one soldier had spoken to Tristan.

Tristan didn't respond. He was just clenching his fists and gritting his teeth. He thought he would be able to see his wife but she was not there.

After a while, Tristan commanded the soldiers with his stern cold voice. "Continue the search around the area! We will not stop until we see my wife!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Noted, sir!"

The soldiers responded in unison. They immediately made their moves, searching the other areas.

"Zhen-Zhen, Father-in-law, where are you? What happened to you? Please be safe," Tristan mumbled. 

He felt like he was losing his mind not seeing her. He had to find her as soon as possible or else, he would go insane.

Meanwhile, Liam just arrived in another location. He was now inside a cave. This was the mountain where he first arrived into this world. He was looking at a crystal ball.

He already kept the divine dagger, putting it back to its sheath. Liam took a deep breath. He already knew that this would happen.

The Davis Family would come looking for Zhen-Zhen since she was already part of that family. He could see in the crystal ball that Tristan and Grandpa Lu were currently searching for her in Leo's Private Villa.

Fortunately, he was quick enough to hide their presence. He cast another spell for dimension-hopping. Tristan and others almost saw them.

He sat down on the ground, beside Zhen-Zhen. She was still unconscious. He made her lean on the rock. He reached out to touch her face.

"What have you done to me? I… I can't do my mission anymore. I couldn't hurt you, Lillie… I couldn't." Liam softly mumbled.

He thought he could pierce her heart using the divine dagger, finish his mission and return to his world. But he was mistaken. 

The moment he raised his dagger, he had decided to do it as part of his duty as the leader of the guardian warriors. However, memories with Lillie kept flashing in his mind. 

Seeing her sleeping peacefully without knowing that someone was trying to hurt her, Liam couldn't plunge the dagger in her heart. 

Part of him was telling him that Zhen-Zhen was not evil. She was kind, sweet, and innocent. She was not the demon whom his ancestors were portraying to them as pure evil.

Liam had seen the goodness in Zhen-Zhen's heart. She was living like an ordinary human. She had friends. And she already had her own family.

Liam also realized that Zhen-Zhen was just trying to protect Tristan and Matthew against those men. The things she said inside the penthouse, Liam wanted to hear her explanation.

He just knew it. The demon god's daughter is not evil. If she was then she had already created chaos in this world as soon as she arrived.

Zhen-Zhen chose to live simply, hiding her powers from everyone. She tried to fit in with society. She went to school to learn more things. 

Liam couldn't kill someone as kind as her, someone as pure as her. She was too innocent to be killed by him. The more he was looking at her the more he wanted to protect her.

'What should I do now?' Liam asked himself.

'Should I just go back to my world? But my heart is telling me to keep you. Can I just keep you?' Liam smiled bitterly at that thought.

He knew that Zhen-Zhen loved Tristan so much. But deep inside, Liam didn't want to give up. He was willing to wait until Zhen-Zhen would be able to open her heart again to someone.

He thought Tristan was just an ordinary human. He had no supernatural power. Zhen-Zhen and Tristan had different life spans. She could live longer than an ordinary human. Liam was the same as he was a superbeing. He could live longer than Tristan.

Suddenly, Liam had started desiring Zhen-Zhen. He wanted to be with her. He wanted to get her love and affection. He didn't care even if she was a demon god's daughter. Liam thought he had already fallen for her.

  He was jealous of Tristan. He was so lucky to have Zhen-Zhen. Liam wondered if they had just spared Zhen-Zhen before, maybe she would stay in their world living with the guardian warriors peacefully.

Was it possible for Zhen-Zhen to forgive the guardian warriors for destroying her family and for sealing her for one hundred years? This was one of the so many questions running in his mind right now.

Liam wanted to try and earn Zhen-Zhen's trust. He would do his best and ask forgiveness on behalf of the other guardian warriors.

He decided to tell Zhen-Zhen about his power. He would tell her that he was the same as her who possessed supernatural powers. He hoped by doing this, Zhen-Zhen would become closer to him.

"If I persevere, will I be able to replace Tristan in your heart?" Liam mumbled as he continued caressing her face.

It did not take long when Zhen-Zhen's eyebrow twitched. It looked like she was about to wake up. Liam immediately retreated his arm. He was waiting for Zhen-Zhen to open her eyes.

"Who are you? Don't you dare lay a hand on my Zhen-Zhen!" A deep angry voice was heard at the entrance of the cave.

Liam turned around only to see FaMo with blazing red eyes. He was still in his demon god's form. After exerting too much energy and magical force, FaMo was able to break Liam's spell trap.

With his protective instinct, he was able to trace Zhen-Zhen's location. He teleported immediately to the place where Zhen-Zhen was.

The divine dagger triggered FaMo. When the dagger got near to Zhen-Zhen's body, it sent a signal to FaMo, thus he experienced excruciating pain, telling him Zhen-Zhen was in danger.

FaMo was now thinking about how he could separate that man away from Zhen-Zhen. He didn't want Zhen-Zhen to get involved once the fight started.

Liam also stood up, facing FaMo. That was the moment FaMo got a clearer view of Liam's face. He was surprised when he recognized Liam.

"It's you... The professor?!!" FaMo remembered he saw Liam in Zhen-Zhen's university when he punished John and Lester.
