Chapter 206 - Have Something Important To Tell You
Everyone was able to have their nap, getting enough rest after the long and tiring fun games for the whole day. The activity for tonight also started.
The members of the Davis family and others gathered together for dinner. This time they had a normal set up.
They dined in an enclosed space, buffet food was served in the corner. They should get their food on their own and proceed to their respective tables.
They talked about some family stuff and business updates. Those who wanted to brag just kept on talking about their achievements.
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were not paying attention to them. They were busy entertaining Alice and Thomas so that they won't feel out of place.
The Miller family distanced themselves from the elders. They were still embarrassed to face them after what transpired a while ago.
Hannah was also in a foul mood. Her mother made a ruckus. Because of that, they gained bad impressions from the elders of the Davis Family.
Aside from that, she was upset because Tristan got mad at her and her parents because of Lillie. Hannah started to drink too much to vent out her frustration.
Andrew was not also saying anything. She didn't know why Andrew was unusually quiet as well. She wanted to be comforted by him but it seemed that Andrew's mind was wandering somewhere.
In fact, Andrew was unhappy and disappointed. He didn't expect that Hannah's mother would treat Lillie like that. He felt sorry for her.
He was thinking that Tristan was right. He should have explained everything to Hannah's parents so that things should not have escalated like this.
He made up his mind. He would see Lillie later and ask for forgiveness. He felt like he was also responsible for what happened.
Since he was engrossed with his own thoughts, Andrew didn't notice that Hannah was also upset about something. He had no idea that his fiancee was drowning herself in alcoholic drinks already.
After dinner, everyone proceeded to the activity area. They were now outside in an open space under the night sky.
The bonfire was already prepared. They were just waiting for everyone before they would light it up. The camping experience wouldn't be complete without a bonfire.
They just finished eating dinner but others brought barbecues and marshmallows with them.
While everyone was busy with their own things, Tristan left Zhen-Zhen with her foster parents for a while as he secretly approached Matthew, Jake, and Blake.
He asked their help for his surprise to Zhen-Zhen. He wanted to make a memorable night for both of them.
Of course, the twins took advantage of this chance to ask some bribes from Tristan. Tristan had no choice but to accept their conditions. Besides, all he cared about was to make Zhen-Zhen happy. (Author is laughing because of the Twins)
After giving the twins his instructions, Tristan went back to Zhen-Zhen's side. It did not take long when they lit up the bonfire.
Tristan didn't fail to capture this beautiful moment using his camera.
His favorite shot was Zhen-Zhen's joyful reaction as she watched the bonfire in front of her. She had a charming smile on her lovely face, her eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky.
Some of his cousins started singing and playing their guitars. There were also twelve sets of telescope scattered around them. They could use them for stargazing.
Everyone was having fun. They realized that this camping activity for their family gathering was not a bad idea. This was all thanks to Zhen-Zhen's suggestion.
Watching the night sky together with your family and loved ones was more fun than staying in the four corners of the Davis Family Mansion, just drinking and eating.
Now, they appreciated Lillie for taking the initiative and recommending this kind of activity for the family.
The bonding moments continue. The elders just allowed the young ones to do what they wanted. They talked, ate, and drank together while jamming with their music.
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen mingled with their other cousins together with Matthew. FaMo wanted Zhen-Zhen to enjoy the night so he let her be. He decided to watch her from a distance.
When Tristan thought it was the right time to make a move, he left Zhen-Zhen with Matthew. He would inform Matthew to tell Zhen-Zhen to go to their meeting place once he finished all the preparations.
It took them half an hour to finish everything. Tristan called Matthew, giving him a go signal. After talking to Tristan over the phone, Matthew approached Lillie who was being entertained by Tristan's girl cousins.
Matthew leaned closer to Zhen-Zhen and simply whispered something to her.
"Lillie, go to this place. Tristan is already waiting for you."
Zhen-Zhen's face brightened up when she heard that. She thanked Matthew and said goodbye to Tristan's cousins.
Matthew just nodded at her with a smile. He was glad to see that his best friend, Tristan was making an effort to make Lillie happy.
Matthew could see that Tristan changed a lot ever since he met Lillie. He was hoping that Tristan had finally moved on and forgot about Hannah.
Matthew was thinking that Lillie was a very wonderful person he should cherish more. Tristan was lucky to find a girl like Lillie.
Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen left the activity area to see Tristan in their agreed meeting place. She didn't know why but she was excited about this.
Unknown to her, there were men who saw her leaving the activity area. Since they noticed that she was alone, they decided to follow her.
She was just halfway in reaching Tristan's current location when Daniel and Mark blocked her way and stopped her.
Zhen-Zhen looked at them confusedly.
"Lillie, can we borrow just a few minutes of your time?" Daniel asked her directly.
"Why?"
"We just wanted to talk to you. We have something important to tell you. We are concerned about you so we believe that you need to know something about your husband, Tristan." Mark told her their intention.
"About Tristan?"
The two men just nodded at her as a response.
The moment she heard Tristan's name Zhen-Zhen became curious about what they wanted to say. So in the end, Zhen-Zhen agreed to talk to them.
