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

The next morning, Bancroft Residence became chaotic when several police officers arrived with a warrant of arrest. It was issued against John Bancroft being the mastermind for the assault of Tristan Davis and Matthew Wilkins.

"What is the meaning of this? Why are you taking my son!" Mr. Bancroft stepped forward, talking back to the Police Officers. 

They refused to surrender John without knowing what was happening. How did things turn out like this?

John was looking at the police in horror. He didn't expect this to happen. He didn't consider the consequences of his action. Now he was put under this predicament. He was already in the legal age so Tristan and Matthew could file a case against him.

Meanwhile, one police officer presented the warrant of arrest to Mr. Bancroft. He also explained what crime their son has committed. 

They were also witnesses so John Bancroft could no longer deny the allegation. The Bermuda Gang members already talked to the police about his involvement and submitted their sworn statement.

'Damn! I am doomed! What should I do now?' John was now panicking. He turned to his brother Alexis who was standing beside him.

"Brother, help me! Please, contact Mark and Daniel Davis. I think they can help me with this."

Alexis was looking at his brother with complicated emotions. He wanted to scold him but at the same time, he was worried about him.

"John, what have you done?" Alexis asked him. There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He had no idea about the deal he made with the Bermuda Gang.

Now, he realized the reason why his brother borrowed money from him. It turned out he used the money to hire the gang.

John's mother almost fainted the moment she heard what her son had done. He committed a crime against the sons of the Davis and Wilkins Families. 

They were powerful and influential families in the City of Empire. Going against them was not a joke. Mr. Bancroft also felt the heaviness of the crime committed by his son. Provoking those two families was a big mistake.

Mr. Bancroft walked over. He has a dark expression on his face while looking dagger at his son, John.

"Dad, I don't want to go to jail. Please help me. I didn't do it!" he denied it.

But Mr. Bancroft ignored his plea. 

*PAK*

Everyone was stupefied seeing what the father did to his son. He slapped John on the face. He was furious since John kept on causing trouble for the Bancroft Family. 

When their company was blacklisted by the Heavenly Star Enterprise and rejected their proposal, they already suffered a great loss. Now, another problem arose, involving his son against the sons of Davis Family and Wilkins Family.

Mr. Bancroft was worrying about the next move of Heavenly Star. What if they would attack the Bancroft Company again because of this incident.

This concern triggered Mr. Bancroft to slap his own son in front of everyone. He didn't know if an apology would be enough to pacify the Davis Family and the Wilkins Family.

He knew his son was too reckless and gullible. How could he do that without thinking about the possible consequences? He even hired an infamous gang.

"Dad, believe me! They just wanted to frame me!" 

Until the end, John wanted to deny everything, hoping that his brother and the Davis cousins would be able to help him.

John was still begging his father when the police took him. His father couldn't do anything for now. He just called their family attorney. 

Though he was angry at his son, he would still help him get bailed out of jail. Bancroft's reputation was also at stake here.

Alexis, on the other hand, went out to confront his friends, Mark and Daniel. He didn't know what kind of deal his brother made with his two friends.

He would not allow his brother to suffer alone. If the two of them had something to do with this, Alexis thought that they should help his brother. They should use their influence as part of the Davis Family.

But the question was, were they able to use their influence as members of the Davis Family? What would happen if the two of them lost the right of becoming part of the Davis Family?

~ At Davis Family Mansion ~

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were hanging out in the garden when Jake and Blake arrived. Tristan would not report to the company in the meantime. Both Matthew and Tristan needed to recover from his injury first.

Grandpa Lu and his assistant, Mr. Twig would be the ones to handle the duties left by Tristan. Andrew would be assisting them in the company matters. With that, Tristan could relax at home together with his wife, Zhen-Zhen.

Jake: "Tristan!"

Blake: "Lillie!"

The twins called the attention of Zhen-Zhen and Tristan before joining them. Tristan frowned upon seeing the twins running in their direction.

"What's up?" Tristan asked them.

"We have good news. We already submitted your complaints against John Bancroft. He was brought to the precinct now to be questioned by the police." Jake cheerfully informed Tristan.

Tristan and Zhen-Zhen were glad to hear that.

"Thanks, cousins for the help," Tristan said.

"Well, it's an honor to be your lawyer." Blake promptly responded.

"Haha. Well, I am surprised that the two of you chose that career instead of going to the Military. Grandpa Alejandro and Uncle are high-ranking officials. I wonder why Grandpa Alejandro and your father allowed you not to become soldiers."

"Well, we threatened our father that we would run away from home if they would force us to become soldiers," Jake answered him.

"Eh, it worked just like that?" Zhen-Zhen also joined the conversation.

Jake and Blake shook their heads before bursting out into a peal of laughter.

"It didn't work. Instead, we were punished by Dad. A whole week of physical training." Jake said while laughing.

"Eh, so how come you became lawyers instead of soldiers?" Tristan repeated his question to the twins.

"We went for the wrong person. We should have asked Mom first instead of threatening Dad. With just one word from our Mom, our wish was fulfilled. So we were freed from becoming soldiers," Blake finally answered Tristan's query.

Tristan glanced at Zhen-Zhen upon hearing that. Well, that made sense. If Zhen-Zhen would be the one requesting him then he would always comply.

'Gosh, I hope our babies will not know that their mother is my weakness, or else, they could make me yield to their requests every time.' Tristan thought to himself.

"Tristan, is there something wrong?" Zhen-Zhen asked him.

"No, wifey. I am just thinking about our babies. I wonder what career they will choose once they grow up."

"No matter what career, we should support them," Zhen-Zhen said, smiling tenderly at Tristan.

Tristan nodded with a doting smile on his face. He agreed with Zhen-Zhen.

"Cough! Cough!" Blake cleared his throat. They felt like their presence was forgotten when Tristan and Zhen-Zhen began talking about their babies.

"So what's your plan against our evil cousins?" Jake asked Tristan curiously.

"Hahaha, watch out. There will be a great show at our family gathering this weekend. Grandpa Lu will handle everything," Tristan said to them meaningfully, grinning from ear to ear.
