BXBX NOVEL Chapter 137 Giving Them A Lesson
Tristan went to the center stage where the elders were currently talking. They were Grandpa Lu, Grandpa Alejandro, and Grandma Clara. Jake and Blake were both following him.
When he reached their spot, Tristan grabbed the microphone that was used by the emcee a while ago. Other guests already left. Only members of the Davis and Miller family remained in the venue.
"Hello everyone, may I have your attention please?" Tristan announced using the microphone. He caught the attention of everyone inside the banquet hall.
Blake and Jake were just smiling from ear to ear while watching Tristan. Members of the Davis and Miller family averted their gaze to the center stage, including Mark and Daniel.
"What is he trying to do now?" Mark sneered, eyeing Tristan suspiciously.
Daniel let out a sarcastic laugh. "He has the guts now since he introduced his beautiful wife in the family. Is he bragging now? Let\'s see what kind of show he will give us tonight. Trying hard to steal the spotlight from Andrew."
"Oh, this is about Davis family matters so just ignore me if this is not concerning you," Tristan said, indirectly telling the members of the Miller family that they didn\'t need to pay attention to him.
Soon, the members of the Davis Family, including Mark and Daniel walked towards the center stage. Some of them were looking at Tristan with confusion.
"Grandson, what is this all about?" Grandpa Lu finally spoke up with Tristan.
This time Tristan released the microphone as he faced Grandpa Lu and the other members of the Davis Family.
"Grandpa, there\'s something I need to tell you," Tristan said to him with a very serious tone.
"Is this about your marriage, dear?" Grandma Clara also asked him, her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Is your wife really pregnant?" Grandpa Alejandro couldn\'t help but join them.
Tristan scratched the back of his head as he looked at the two elders helplessly.
"This is not about my marriage nor my wife. This is about my scandal video. I found out who are the true culprits responsible for spreading my embarrassing video on the internet." Tristan said firmly.
Mark and Daniel frowned the moment they heard that. They met each other\'s gaze as if telling each other that theré\'s no way Tristan would find out that they were the true mastermind.
Andrew and Hannah also joined them. Aside from Mark and Daniel, Andrew was aware of what the two cousins did. He didn\'t stop them and he even gave them his consent because he thought Tristan really schemed against him.
But after he talked with Lillie, he understood now that everything was just a big misunderstanding. She explained the reason why those things happened to Andrew and he believed her.
"Oh, that\'s good to hear that son. What did you find out? Who are the real culprits? Tell us." Lucas said, urging Tristan to tell them.
Mark and Daniel started to feel uneasy when they saw Tristan looking daggers at them.
"Cousin, you know what, we are willing to be your lawyer if you want to sue and file a lawsuit to those masterminds." Jake butted in.
"That\'s true. It is some kind of cyberbullying and defamation for ruining and slandering your reputation. Because of that, it also caused a misunderstanding between you and Andrew. We can charge them with libel, and invasion of privacy too." Blake also commented while eyeing Mark and Daniel.
The twins were both lawyers. They were trying to scare Mark and Daniel and they succeeded. They could see their guilty and nervous expressions now. The twins and Tristan were rejoicing inwardly.
"I agree with that! Let\'s file a lawsuit! It ruins the reputation of one member of our Davis Family. Let\'s show them what we can do after attacking our family members." Grandpa Alejandro spoke up with his stern voice.
Among the family members, he was a military guy so he was strict and very protective of the family. Mark\'s and Daniel\'s body were suddenly covered by cold sweats when they heard Grandpa Alejandro\'s remarks.
Tristan and the twins were enjoying their reaction.
"But what should I do? Honestly, I was surprised when I discovered the truth. Even I didn\'t expect that they could do something like this to attack me," Tristan said exasperatedly, pretending to be upset.
"Just tell us who they are. I will help you punish them," Grandpa Alejandro insisted.
Then Tristan took a deep breath, pretending to be sad before pointing his forefinger in the direction of Mark and Daniel.
"My two cousins, Mark and Daniel are the true culprits!" Tristan declared, shocking every member of the Davis Family who was listening to him. Everyone averted their gaze to Mark and Daniel.
Mark and Daniel reacted immediately, trying to feign innocence.
Mark: "Hey, Hey, Hey! Why are you accusing us? Do you have proof?"
Daniel: "Tristan, how dare you slander us in front of our family?!"
Tristan put on a pitiful face, acting as a victim in front of them to gain sympathy from the other members of the Davis Family.
"I was also saddened when I learned the truth. I hired an investigator and he managed to gather the evidence. This is not a baseless accusation. I have proof. Let me show everyone."
After saying that, Tristan picked up his phone. After a while, everyone from the Davis Family received a message from Tristan. He sent them attachments, both videos, and photos.
The video contained the confession of the person Mark and Andrew hired to post Tristan\'s embarrassing video on the internet. The pictures showed the bank records of the payment he received from them, the pictures of the three of them talking inside his apartment.
Fortunately, that person had a CCTV camera inside his apartment for safety and security purposes. Mark and Daniel were caught by the camera when they went inside and negotiated with him. This was solid proof that they had something to do with Tristan\'s scandal video.
"Mark! Daniel! What have you done?!" Grandpa Alejandro was infuriated when he learned the truth.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Clara were also looking at the two of them with deathly glares. At that certain moment, Mark and Daniel knew that they were doomed.
This what Tristan truly wanted: using the elders to give Mark and Daniel a good lesson.
