Chapter 614 - Being Punished

Zhen-Zhen created a rectangular barrier, putting FaMo's crystal inside. She had to make sure that the crystal would not be broken because they never knew what would happen to FaMo once it got broken.

They would wait for FaMo to come back. They hoped FaMo would be able to break out from that crystal as soon as possible. 

Tristan called his family again, informing them that Zhen-Zhen had already woken up. Grandpa Lu and his parents went into their room including Andrew.

Isabelle immediately approached Zhen-Zhen.

"Lillie, how do you feel?" She asked her worriedly.

Grandpa Lu also walked over with a concerned look in his eyes. Grandpa Lu was afraid that Zhen-Zhen would be heartbroken because of Little Davis.

Tristan asked them to come into their room to see Zhen-Zhen but he hadn't told them yet about Little Davis.

Andrew and Lucas were also worried as they watched Zhen-Zhen. They wondered if Tristan already informed her about what happened to Little Davis.

Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen had mixed emotions after seeing the worried expressions on their faces. She thought they would be afraid of her now.

Instead of answering Isabelle's question, she asked them a question.

"Are you not afraid of me? You saw me using my power."

Isabelle, Lucas, Andrew, and Grandpa Lu exchanged glances with each other. It was Grandpa Lu who answered her.

"No, Lillie, we are not afraid of you. But I admit that we were shocked a while ago. You don't have to worry. Nothing will change. You are still my granddaughter-,in-law. You are part of the Davis Family."

Isabelle also spoke up. "That's true. We love you, Lillie, for who you are. You are unique and extraordinary but in our eyes, you are still the most innocent and sweetest girl we have ever known."

Lucas nodded his head with a smile. "I'm proud of my daughter-in-law! She is strong and powerful!" Lucas declared.

Zhen-Zhen felt like crying because Tristan's family accepted her despite her extraordinary power.

"Andrew, I heard from Tristan… please forgive me if I hurt you by pushing you hard."

Andrew smiled at Zhen-Zhen sheepishly. "No need to apologize, Lillie. I'm just fine. But now I know the real reason why we lost during the tug of war game. You are really strong!"

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen burst into peals of laughter as they recalled it.

Tristan stopped laughing. It was now time to tell his family about the good news.

"Grandpa Lu, Mom, Dad, Andrew… There is something we want to tell you. Little Davis, our baby, is just fine. Nothing bad happened to our baby!" Tristan informed them cheerfully.

"Huh? Is that true, son?" Isabelle asked to confirm.

"Yes, Mom! We can go to the hospital tomorrow for her check-up. Our baby is safe!"

"Aigoo… My great-grandchild is fine! My grandchild is safe!" Grandpa Lu almost jumped with joy.

"This is great news!" Andrew blurted out. He felt relieved now.

"Sigh, we should be more careful now. Should we assign someone who will taste Lillie's food first? We should keep them safe, the mother and child," Lucas suggested to them.

"Let's strengthen safety and security. I don't want to see Lillie and our Little Davis be hurt again." Isabelle also shared her opinion with them.

"Mom, Dad, don't worry. I will make sure this will not happen again," Zhen-Zhen said, reassuring them.

"I will file a lawsuit against Hannah tomorrow for trying to harm my granddaughter-in-law and my great-grandchild!" Grandpa Lu declared to them.

"But Dad, we don't have concrete evidence. Nothing will happen," Lucas said to Grandpa Lu.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen also knew that they couldn't use the milk as evidence since ordinary humans could not determine the magical potion mixed in the milk even if they would try to examine it.

"Alright! Just leave everything to me. I have another way of punishing her for what she had done." Grandpa Lu said with finality.

"Ok. Let's leave now and let Lillie take a rest. It's already late," Grandpa Lu added as he patted Zhen-Zhen's back.

Soon Grandpa Lu and others left Tristan's and Zhen-Zhen's room. 

Tristan sat down beside her. "What are you thinking, Zhen?"

Zhen-Zhen looked at Tristan with a serious expression on her face. "I will not forget what Hannah did tonight. I will come after her. Don't stop me, Tristan."

Tristan held Zhen-Zhen's hands, giving them a light squeeze.

"Yes, of course. I will not stop you, wifey. But promise me one thing… you will not kill anyone, okay?"

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head. "Yes, I will not kill her. Don't worry."

"By the way, wifey… do you know that Liam can erase someone's memory? Actually, I'm worried since Hannah knew your secret. I'm thinking if it is better if we will ask Liam's help to erase her memory regarding your power?"

"We can do that. But let me meet her first. After meeting her, let's give Liam a go signal to erase her memory." Zhen-Zhen agreed with Tristan's suggestion.

*****

Meanwhile, Hannah just arrived at her house. She wanted to be alone so she didn't bother going to her parent's house.

She was still shaken by the incident that happened in the Davis Family Mansion. She really thought she would die. 

She stepped into her bathroom to change her clothes. At the mirror, she saw the red mark left by Zhen-Zhen's hand when she strangled her.

She would still shiver in fear as she remembered that moment. Zhen-Zhen looked frightening. She was so determined to kill her.

Then Hannah saw the mark of Tristan's palm on her face. She couldn't believe that Tristan would slap her. She clenched her fists.

She was mad because, after everything they had seen, the Davis Family still accepted Zhen-Zhen. She lost against Zhen-Zhen over and over again.

But Hannah didn't know if she should be happy or not when Tristan said that their baby was gone.

Hannah's eyes widened in horror. 'No! Does it mean… I killed their unborn child?'

Hannah started to feel the guilt, knowing that she killed an innocent unborn child.

She stepped back. Her face was painted with shock and disbelief.

"No! No! What I have done? What I have done?" 

Hannah's body began trembling in fear. She looked at her hand. She could see blood. She was hallucinating.

"No! No!"

Hannah turned the faucet on. She tried to wash her hand with the running water, hoping that the blood would disappear.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she could still see her hands covered with blood… blood of Zhen-Zhen's and Tristan's baby.

"Aaaah! Nooo!"

Hannah was screaming inside her bathroom like a madwoman when Liam appeared inside her house. Liam used his dimension-hopping spell to teleport into Hannah's house.

He heard Hannah's scream so Liam immediately entered her room to check on her. Her voice was coming from the bathroom.

Liam was hesitating whether to come in or not. But since Hannah continued screaming inside, Liam had decided to barge in.

Upon entering the bathroom, he saw Hannah rubbing her hands on the sink roughly. Intense fear could be seen in her eyes. She was not in herself.

"No! No! I don't want to see the blood! Nooo!"

Liam watched her in puzzlement. He looked at her hands but he couldn't see any blood at all.

'She must be hallucinating,' Liam mumbled as he slowly approached her.

Fortunately, Hannah was wearing her clothes. She was planning to take a quick shower but ended up seeing things that made her cower in fear.

"Miss Hannah Miller," Liam called her name. He had to repeat it thrice before Hannah was able to hear his voice.

She turned around with eyes burned with tears. Then she saw Liam standing a few steps away from her.

Seeing his face, Hannah recognized him as the person who saved her from Zhen-Zhen.

"Please help! Help me! I can't remove the blood in my hands," Hannah begged him desperately with her hoarse voice.

Liam frowned as he confirmed it. Hannah was hallucinating. It might be the result of guilt after knowing Zhen-Zhen's baby died because of the Crystaline potion.

"Hannah, you already knew right? You already knew that the baby would be harmed because of the crystaline potion you mixed in Lillie's milk." 

Liam interrogated Hannah even though he knew that she was not in the right state of mind.

"Why did you do it? Who give you the potion?"

Liam threw her another question but Hannah didn't give him an answer. She continued begging him to help her.

"Please help me remove the blood. Please! I hate to see blood! Please."

Liam clenched his fists. "You are being punished right now by your own conscience. You felt guilty for harming their baby."

"Please, help! This is not my fault! Not my fault! They forced me to do it! They ruined my life! I hated them! Tristan and Lillie! I hated them!"
