Chapter 615 - Kill The Witch!
Liam didn't know if he could get an answer from Hannah. It looked like she was not in her right state of mind.
But he had to ask her now. Zhen-Zhen's life might be put in danger once again if the other guardian warrior would see her.
He had to know who was helping Hannah. He needed to confirm whether the other guardian warriors already knew the whereabouts of the demon god's daughter.
He knew that they would not hesitate to harm Zhen-Zhen. Their ancestors instilled in them their responsibility to eliminate and kill the demon god's daughter.
'I need to see them. I have to stop them from harming Zhen-Zhen,' Liam thought to himself.
Seeing Hannah's unstable mind right now, Liam had decided to make her sleep for a while to calm her down. He hoped that after she woke up, he could talk to her properly.
Liam cast a sleeping spell on Hannah, making her lose consciousness. He carried and brought her into her bed.
Liam didn't know what to feel seeing the person who tried to harm Zhen-Zhen. He was torn in between his duty and his feelings towards Zhen-Zhen.
He thought he would have to fight her just to keep Hannah and the Davis Family safe. Zhen-Zhen lost control of herself. It turned out someone tried to harm her.
Tristan mentioned to him about Zhen-Zhen's inner demon. It only meant that Zhen-Zhen still had an inner demon residing in her subconscious.
Liam was afraid that someday he would have to choose again between his duty and Zhen-Zhen's safety.
For Liam, Zhen-Zhen's inner demon was like a time bomb. He didn't know what would happen once her inner demon took over Zhen-Zhen's body.
She might attack and hurt innocent people. If that would happen, then he would have to intervene again. But he didn't know if he could hurt her.
"Am I doing the right thing? Should I just bring her back to our world? If I let her stay here, she might become a threat to these ordinary humans. However, if I bring her to our world, the guardian warriors will still try to kill her."
Liam was doubting himself, wondering if he made the right decision or not. But he knew that he could not force Zhen-Zhen.
Zhen-Zhen already found a new family in this world. Without a doubt, she would not come willingly to Liam.
After an hour of waiting, Hannah finally woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and looked around.
She felt weak but she tried to sit up while rubbing her temples. She had a headache. She couldn't remember what happened inside her bathroom.
When Liam saw her awake, he stood up and approached her.
Hannah's eyes widened in surprise the moment she saw the man who saved her from Zhen-Zhen.
"Why are you here? How did you enter my house?" Hannah asked Liam, puzzled.
"I came here to ask you some questions. As to how I entered your house, I don't want to answer that," Liam plainly responded to her.
Liam's expression was neutral. He was not showing any emotions.
Meanwhile, Hannah just observed this handsome man with emerald eyes. She wondered what he wanted to know.
"What questions?" Hannah asked him curiously.
"Why did you do it even though you already knew that her baby would die? Who gave you the potion?" Liam interrogated Hannah, not beating around the bush.
Hannah clenched her fists. She didn't like the way Liam was asking her.
"What will you do if I refuse to answer? And who are you? Are you the same with that witch? I saw it! You are strong. You stopped her. You are not an ordinary human!"
Hannah raised her voice. Though Liam saved her, she hated the fact that he came here for Zhen-Zhen's sake. She would not admit it.
"I don't know what you are talking about! Just get out of my house. I don't want you here. You are accusing me without proof. You are just like them! Have you forgotten that she tried to kill me? Why are you defending her, making it look like she is the victim?" Hannah vented out her frustrations, still denying it.
"I can't believe you. All of you were bewitched by her! Even Andrew didn't listen to me! Leave now!" Hannah screamed, throwing the pillows to Liam.
"You have to answer me or else, I will not leave," Liam said firmly.
"Who gave you the potions?" He repeated his question. He walked closer and grabbed Hannah's wrist.
"Let go of my hand! Leave me alone or I will call the police! Don't tell me that witch sent you here to kill me?!"
Hannah tried to struggle against Liam. He just looked at her helplessly. He didn't want to hurt an ordinary human like Hannah. He wanted to get an answer but she still refused to admit it.
"Aww! I'm hurting! Let go of my hand now!"
Liam tightened his grip on Hannah's wrist. He held her for several seconds. When he was done putting a mark on her wrist, he finally let go of her hand.
Since she didn't want to talk, Liam had decided to spy on Hannah by putting his mark on her. He believed that Hannah would contact the person who gave her the potions.
This was the only way he would know if that person was a guardian warrior. After letting go of her hand, Liam turned around to leave her room.
Hannah just shot him a sharp glare while rubbing her wrist. Before Liam could leave her room, Hannah had spoken again.
"You like her! You like Lillie, don't you?"
Liam paused on his track when he heard that. Hannah continued speaking
"Why don't you take her away from Tristan? You match each other well. Both of you are not ordinary humans. If you are worried about her, just take her away and leave this city!" Hannah suggested to Liam.
"She has no reason to stay here. Her baby is gone! You saw it. She can hurt people with her power. She tried to kill me. She hurt Tristan and Andrew. She doesn't belong here! Just take her away with you!"
Liam clenched his fists. His expression was unreadable. He didn't turn around to face Hannah.
He knew what Hannah was trying to do. She was swaying him, using him so that Zhen-Zhen would disappear from the City of Empire… so that she would leave the Davis Family. He hated the fact that his heart wavered hearing those words from Hannah.
Liam slammed his eyes shut while taking a deep breath. He needed to calm himself and clear his mind.
After a while, Liam found his voice to answer Hannah.
"Hannah, even if Lillie will disappear and leave the Davis Family, you will no longer be part of the Davis. Andrew and Tristan… you can't have them both. You already used all your chances. They hated you to the core now, including the Davis Family."
After saying that, Liam continued walking, leaving Hannah in her room.
Hannah screamed in frustration. She couldn't accept it but Liam's words were true.
"I hate you! I hate all of you! All of you only care about that witch! I wished she was the one who died, not her baby!" Hannah started cursing Zhen-Zhen again.
Her hatred overpowered her guilt once again. Instead of reflecting on her mistakes, Hannah refused to admit her wrongdoing and chose to curse Zhen-Zhen.
She was making herself believe that she had done nothing wrong. She was the victim here, not Zhen-Zhen. Her life was ruined the moment Zhen-Zhen appeared. She kept blaming her for her misfortune.
At this moment, one person popped up in her mind. She already killed an innocent child, so why not kill the mother witch?
'Mheera… I need her. I need her help!' Hannah thought to herself.
She stood up to get her phone. She wanted to contact Mheera. She would ask her another favor.
She gave Mheera a phone so she could easily contact her now. Hannah dialed Mheera's number. It rang several times before it was answered.
She heard Mheera's voice from the other line when the call got connected.
"Hello, Hannah. Why did you call me at this hour?" Mheera asked Hannah with puzzlement. She looked at her clock and it was already 3:30 in the morning.
"Mheera, I did it," Hannah said to her.
Mheera frowned as she didn't understand what she meant.
"What do you mean? You did what?"
"The witch that I told you before… I made her drink the potions."
Mheera was taken aback after hearing that. It only meant the baby died. She thought Hannah already changed her mind. But she still did it.
"Did the baby die?"
"Yes! But the witch should be the one who died. It didn't turn out well. They still accepted her despite knowing about her power. Now I need your help. Please… please kill the witch for me!"
