The elders of the Davis Family were both mad and disappointed when they learned the truth. Mark and Daniel couldn't deny the truth since Tristan already showed them solid proof.
The parents of Mark and Daniel wanted to dig a hole and hide because of the trouble their sons had created. They knew that the elders would also reprimand them for this reason. They didn't imagine that their sons would do that to Tristan.
On the other hand, Tristan's other cousins were not surprised about this turn of events because they were aware of the animosity between those three cousins. It started when the girlfriends of Mark and Daniel betrayed them as they chased after Tristan.
Now, they knew that Mark and Daniel really dug their own grave this time for targeting Tristan. The elders won't let them off easily and would surely punish and discipline them for what they did. They could only watch and shook their head helplessly while looking at Mark and Daniel with pity.
"As much as I wanted to punish them myself, Clara, I will leave this matter to you because they are your grandsons. But I am really upset knowing that they did this to my grandson, Tristan. I hope you can make the right decision on how you will discipline them." Grandpa Lu said to his sister, Clara.
"I understand, Brother," Grandma Clara said while giving Mark and Daniel a deathly glare. She was really disappointed by her grandson's actions.
"I could help you decide what punishment you can give them," Grandpa Alejandro volunteered. Among the siblings, he was the most disciplinarian as he was a retired general and he was a soldier.
Mark and Daniel froze on their spot. They were frightened to the bone just imagining the punishment Grandpa Alejandro was thinking as of this moment. They knew it would be as cruel as the punishment he was giving the soldiers who disobeyed their commands and committed mistakes.
Grandma Clara and Grandpa Alejandro immediately gathered Mark's and Daniel's parents together with their sons, Mark and Daniel. They decided to talk privately as the two elders decided on their punishment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTristan and his twin cousins, Jake and Blake just watched them with a triumphant smile on their faces. Just like that, Tristan was able to get even with his two evil cousins who schemed against him.
Other members of the Davis family decided to leave and go home. The family drama was over so they bade the engaged couple goodbye.
Grandpa Lu and Tristan's parents immediately approached Tristan.
"Where's Lillie, your wife?" Grandpa Lu asked Tristan.
"Yes, where is she? Don't tell me you hide her again from us. You didn't answer my question yet. Is your wife pregnant?" Isabelle asked her son curiously.
Andrew and Hannah were with them, just silently listening to their conversation. Blake and Jake were also there. Before Tristan could respond, Jake suddenly butted in.
"I won't be surprised if Lillie is pregnant. She told us that she and Tristan are already sleeping together," Jake cheerfully said, teasing Tristan.
Blake elbowed his twin brother because of his blabbering mouth. He immediately pulled Jake away from them. He wanted to give Tristan's family the privacy to talk with each other. Tristan just sighed helplessly while watching Blake pulling Jake away from them.
Meanwhile, Hannah didn't know what to feel after hearing that from Jake. Then an image of Tristan having s*x with Lillie flashed in her mind. She lowered her gaze as her hands balled into fists. The bitterness in her heart was consuming her mind.
Andrew was anticipating Tristan's response that he failed to notice the changes in Hannah's expression.
"Grandpa, Lillie just went outside together with Matthew. I told them to stroll around the hotel while waiting for me. As to answer mom's question, Lillie is not yet pregnant. Dad's imagination just ran wild. Please don't misunderstand." Tristan explained to them.
"Oh, sorry about that, son. I'm just wondering why you got married without even informing the family. Knowing your reputation, I thought you accidentally impregnated Lillie." Lucas said while smiling sheepishly at them.
"Son, why don't you give us a grandchild soon?" Isabelle suggested to Tristan, her eyes filled with excitement.
Grandpa Lu and Lucas just bobbed their head frantically as agreement to Isabelle's suggestion. Hannah's expression darkened more when she heard that.
Tristan massaged his temple because of his mother's request. It was easier said than done. Besides, Lillie still needed to study at the University.
"Mom, please don't rush us. We will come to that. Just let me enjoy my married life first together with her. Everything will change when we become parents. Her attention will be divided once we have our baby. I want her to focus on me for a moment." Tristan said as an alibi.
"Oh, alright! Now, I understood why you married her right away. Lillie is a very attractive woman. Hahaha. I guess you are afraid that other guy will steal her from you! Good job, son!" Lucas exclaimed as he came up with another new assumption.
Tristan didn't know whether to cry or laugh. His father never failed to amuse him because of his imagination. Tristan just nodded at his father so that they would stop asking him the reason why he married Lillie.
"By the way, are you coming back to work tomorrow?" Grandpa Lu asked Tristan. His one-month leave of absence was done.
"Yes, I'm going back to work tomorrow, Grandpa," Tristan promptly responded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTristan had accomplished the goal. He was able to help Zhen-Zhen in her review. That was the primary reason why he took a leave of absence. Now, he would go back to work while Zhen-Zhen would also start studying at the university tomorrow.
"Alright, bring Lillie to our family gathering next week. We will also set a meeting with her parents. You should introduce us to her family too," Grandpa Lu firmly said to Tristan.
"Yes, grandpa. I understand." Tristan said.
"One of these days, we will come to visit you, son. I want to have a bonding moment with my daughter-in-law," Isabelle informed Tristan.
"Sure, Mom. Lillie would love that. Can you share some cooking techniques with her?" Tristan said, making his mother become more excited.
"Sure, son! I will teach your wife so that she can cook for you!"
Unknown to them, as they were happily conversing, there was one person who was greatly affected and not enjoying this. That person was Hannah.
She couldn't accept the fact that Tristan's parents were able to accept Lillie easily despite the fact she's the woman who tried to seduce Andrew. She thought it was so unfair.
"Alright, let's call it a night. We should go home now." Lucas said to them.
Everyone agreed. Soon, Tristan left the banquet hall to meet Matthew and Zhen-Zhen. Grandpa Lu and Tristan's parents returned to the Davis Family Mansion.
Andrew and Hannah were the last people who left the banquet hall. After thanking the event organizer, the couple decided to leave. They were already in the lobby when Hannah halted on her steps thus stopping Andrew.
"Hannah, what's wrong?" Andrew asked her confusedly.
"I don't want to go home. Can we just stay here? Let's just check-in and spend the rest of our night here," Hannah requested Andrew desperately. She was feeling down as of this moment.
Andrew was oblivious of what's going on in Hanna's mind right now. He thought she was just tired because of the event tonight. In the end, Andrew yielded to her request so they booked one VIP room.
