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

After hearing the last remarks of Grandpa Lu, Mark and Daniel were both utterly astounded. They almost lost their wits when Grandpa Lu mentioned Tristan and Matthew.

'Does it mean Grandpa Lu was already aware of our involvement with the Bermuda Gang? But how come?' Mark asked himself in horror and disbelief.

Daniel didn't know what to do nor what to say. He just glanced at his cousin, Mark, as if he was asking him 'What is happening here? I thought your plan was foolproof. How come we ended up like this?'

Mark just narrowed his eyes at Daniel. He also had no idea how it turned out this way. But he wanted to deny it until the end.

"Grandpa Lu, what are you talking about?" Mark mustered up his courage to feign innocence. He pretended that he didn't know something.

Grandpa Solomon squinted his eyes as Mark continued to deny everything. Tristan, Matthew, and the twins just sneered at Mark's response.

"So until the end, you still want to deny your evil deeds?" Tristan had finally spoken.

Mark's and Daniel's parents were also shocked by Grandpa Lu's sudden decision. They approached Grandma Clara asking for her help.

But Grandma Clara could only shake her head. She already approved of this decision and this was final. Nothing could change Grandpa Lu's decision. Grandpa Alejandro and Grandma Clara supported him.

They were also confused about what was happening there. The Miller, the Meyer, and the Wilkins Family were just silently observing the family drama of the Davis Family.

"Why are you accusing us? What did we do wrong?" Daniel put on his brave front, talking back to Tristan.

"Both of you connived with John Bancroft and the Bermuda Gang. You are also responsible for what happened to us," Matthew answered Daniel with his firm voice.

"Are you trying to frame us? Do you have proof?" Mark demanded.

Grandpa Alejandro couldn't believe that Mark and Daniel would still refuse to admit their sin. They should reflect and apologize for what they had done but it seemed that they had no plan of doing that.

"Mark, Daniel, who taught you to scheme against your family member? I can't tolerate this despicable move." Grandpa Alejandro had also expressed his thoughts.

"If you hated your cousin and Matthew that much then why don't you ask them for a duel, face to face and fist to fist combat? I would gladly watch the four of you throw punches at each other in the ring," he added.

"But I am really disappointed, you chose to backstab them, instead of fighting them head-on."

Grandpa Alejandro shook his head while giving them a ridiculing look.

"Grandpa Lu, Grandpa Alejandro, why are you just listening to Tristan and Matthew? Why don't you hear us out first? We don't have any involvement in this!" Mark insisted, feeling desperate.

"You will just continue lying to us. Tristan, Matthew, please enlighten these two so that they will remember what they have done wrong," Grandpa Lu said, turning to Tristan and Matthew.

Tristan nodded at his grandpa before speaking up again.

"The Bermuda Gang revealed that aside from John Bancroft, there were two other men who contacted and paid them for attacking and beating us. They called them by alias~ Mr. M and Mr. D."

Mark and Daniel both laughed out loud because of that remark.

"So just because of the Letter's initial, you assumed that we are the ones who hired them. So it's just a baseless accusation!" Mark declared to everyone.

"Please give us justice for this false accusation!" Daniel supported his cousin's claim.

Matthew rolled his eyes skyward. He couldn't believe their shamelessness and the thickness of their skins.

"We have proof and witnesses who can attest that the two of you had something to do with what happened to us." Matthew picked up his phone.

Then Mark and Daniel received a message. It was a message from Matthew with an attached photo. They were shocked when they saw the screenshot of their conversation with Alexis.

Mark and Daniel cursed Alexis inwardly. He betrayed them. He sold them out to Tristan. They wondered if that's the reason why Tristan and Matthew stopped filing the lawsuit against John.

Their assumption was right. Alexis came to Tristan and talked to him, pleading for his brother's freedom. They made a deal. With the evidence in his hand, Alexis exchanged it for his brother's freedom.

"Aside from that screenshot, John Bancroft also admitted to us that the three of you talked about this plan. Mark and Daniel, both of you connived with John to implement his revenge. You referred him to the Bermuda Gang." Matthew laid all the evidence one after another.

"I couldn't believe that two members of the Davis Family would be associated with that infamous gang!" Grandpa Alejandro burst out.

"The two of you truly deserved this kind of punishment," he added.

The other members of the Davis Family could only shake their hands. They already knew that no one could save Mark and Daniel now. They were doomed, beyond redemption.

They would lose the right of being part of the Davis Family. They would be kicked out and they would no longer receive an inheritance. 

Only Grandpa Lu had the power to change their fate, depending on how Mark and Daniel would reflect after this punishment.

"As the patriarch of this family, I declared that Mark and Daniel were no longer part of the Davis Family. The inheritance that they are supposed to get will be donated to the charity works sponsored by our family. That's final. So this is the end of my announcement. If you have something more to say… say it now."

Mark and Daniel felt like their world crumbled after hearing those words again. Losing their right as a member of the Davis Family would be a great loss for them. They didn't know how they would handle this.

They panicked and began to act hysterically, begging Grandpa Lu to change his mind. But Grandpa Lu just summoned their family bodyguard, asking them to guide Mark and Daniel out of the Davis Family Mansion.

'Eh, Grandpa is so scary! He is firm with his decision. I wonder if I didn't meet Zhen-Zhen before. Would he really take my CEO position and disown me as his grandson?' Tristan pondered to himself as he watched his two evil cousins being dragged by the bodyguards.

'Hahaha, I think I am still lucky. Though I always fought with grandfather before, he didn't disown me as his grandson,' Tristan laughed inwardly at that thought.

"I think grandpa will not do that to me anymore, especially now I am the husband of his favorite granddaughter-in-law. We also fulfilled his wish of having a great-grandchild. So I am really safe even if I continue to annoy him." Tristan murmured.

Zhen-Zhen glanced at Tristan with amusement. She just heard everything he said just a while ago. She pinched his waist and whispered something.

"Behave well, Tristan. Don't annoy grandpa too much. Getting angry more often is not good for grandpa's health," Zhen-Zhen scolded Tristan.

Tristan just smiled sheepishly at his wife, feeling a little bit guilty. "Yes, Wifey. I will behave. I will not annoy grandpa anymore."

After everything was settled, Grandpa Solomon approached Grandpa Lu, and Grandpa Alejandro. 

"Thank you for doing this. My grandson didn't want me to intervene," Grandpa Solomon said to his two friends.

"But are you really disowning those two?" he asked them curiously.

Grandpa Lu and Grandpa Alejandro exchanged meaningful glances with one another. It was Grandpa Alejandro who answered him.

"This is not forever. We will still give them a chance to redeem themselves but for now, they have to reflect and learn their lesson."

Grandpa Lu nodded his head in agreement. "I want them to realize their mistake. And I hope that in the future they will still change." 

"Even my grandson whom I thought would never change, suddenly turned into a new leaf after meeting his wife. I hope Mark and Daniel will also experience that. So I am not closing the door of the Davis Family for them." 

After saying those words, Grandpa Lu glanced at Tristan with a gentle smile on his face.

Grandpa Alejandro and Grandpa Solomon understood Grandpa Lu's motive. At least, he was not that merciless. He was still giving Mark and Daniel the chance. After all, he still considered them as part of the Davis Family.

However, hurting another member of the family including their friends just because of hatred and jealousy would not be tolerated. Now, they needed to suffer the consequences of their evil actions.

Grandpa Lu warned everyone that they should not interfere with any matters regarding Mark and Daniel especially if they would ask them for financial help. They had to work independently, not relying on the Davis Family's power and money.

Grandma Clara, on the other hand, was still talking to the parents of Mark and Daniel. She was explaining to them about this punishment. After getting her explanation, Mark's and Daniel's parents finally accepted Grandpa Lu's decision.
