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

Chapter 456 - Found A Scapegoat!



Today was the day Mark and Daniel finished their community service. This was one of the punishments Grandpa Alejandro had given them after Tristan revealed to the Davis Family that they were the ones who were responsible for spreading his video online.

They helped and assisted in the construction of a new building in one orphanage that was being sponsored by the Davis Family.

In the afternoon, they were also hands-on, serving food to the children during the feeding program. Although they were tired in construction, they couldn't complain. 

Mark and Daniel had to be obedient, or else, Grandpa Alejandro might extend their punishment for another two weeks. 

They were also afraid that Grandpa Alejandro would send them back to the military barracks to undergo physical training along with the other new recruit soldiers.

After their long tiring day, the two of them finally found time to rest at Mark's penthouse. They felt like every ounce of their energy was drained today.

The two men slumped their body on the soft couch in the living room area.

"I think we need a massage. Should I call a spa for a home service massage?" Daniel consulted his cousin.

"Sure, you can," Mark responded lazily.

"Should I ask for those masseuses who gave us extra service before? We are their regular clients now," Daniel said with a cheeky grin on his face. 

Those masseuses became their flings. There were times they were going out on a date although they already had girlfriends. 

In fact, Mark and Daniel became worse than Tristan before. At least, Tristan was not two-timing women. It's just that he only had one night rule!

Meanwhile Mark chuckled after hearing Daniel's suggestion. "That's a bright idea cousin. But our girlfriends are coming today. Should we postpone their visits?"

"Besides, I don't need my girlfriend right now. What I badly need is a relaxing massage," Mark added, justifying his plan.

"I agree with you cousin. Let's just inform the girls that we will meet them tomorrow!"

The two men went according to their plan. They informed their girlfriends that they were not available today. They also called the spa where they were visiting often.

While waiting for their masseuses to arrive, Mark and Daniel talked about their scheme against Tristan and Matthew.

"Have you heard?" Mark mumbled, catching Daniel's attention. He had just finished talking to his girlfriend over the phone.

"Heard what?" Daniel asked him.

"Matthew and Tristan are back here in the City of Empire." Mark informed him.

"Really? Shall we implement our plan now? I can talk to the Gang Leader any time," Daniel said excitedly.

But Mark objected. "Not yet. The City of Empire will be celebrating its Centennial Year. There will be a big event and Tristan has a big role on that day as the CEO of the Heavenly Star."

"Until then, we can't touch them. This will cause a disadvantage to the Davis Family. Besides, he can't appear to the public if he is injured," Mark explained to Daniel.

"Okay, Let's do it after the Centennial Year Celebration," Daniel commented.

"Oh, by the way, we need to be more careful. This time Tristan and Matthew must not know that we are the ones who hire the gang. Send a trustworthy person who will negotiate with the Gang Leader." 

Mark thought this over and over. The Davis Family is capable of investigating and tracing the mastermind of the assault.

Yes, this was the scheme Mark and Daniel plotted against Tristan and Matthew. They hired a notorious gang who would give them good beatings.

They had no plan of killing them. They just wanted Tristan and Matthew to suffer a few beatings and scared them. 

They also wanted to see the mighty Tristan to kneel in front of the Gang Leader while begging him to let them go.

They would be happy to see that. They didn't care if they had to pay a large amount of money as long as they could see Trista begging for his life and trembling with fear.

Only then they would be satisfied. They would also stop targeting Tristan once they got the revenge they wanted.

"Don't worry, cousin. The Bermuda Gang is known to be loyal to its clients. They will not sell us out. But to be more careful, I will follow your advice." Daniel reassured his cousin.

"I will hire someone secretly without giving away my identity. He will be the one to negotiate and communicate with the Bermuda Gang and relay our instructions and order to them."

Mark nodded his head in approval. "Good cousin. We already learned our lesson. If the elders will find this out, I don't know what kind of punishments they will give us." Mark shivered at that thought.

"Just in case, use John, Alexis's brother, as our shield. If something goes wrong then he will be the one to blame. Remember, he has the motive to do this. After all, Matthew had beaten them badly."

Upon hearing that, Daniel's eyes lit up as an idea crossed his mind.

"Cousin! Since you mentioned John, I think I have a better idea this time."

Mark raised his eyebrow, staring at Daniel with a questioning gaze.

"What idea?"

"Why don't we just let John to talk and negotiate with the Gang Leader? What we want is also what he wants!"

"Let's make it look like John is the mastermind in this. We can wash our hands and deny our collaboration with him if ever something goes wrong."

Mark fell silent for a moment, analysing the pros and cons of Daniel's suggestion.

"If John will be blamed for this then how do you think Alexis will react?" Mark asked Daniel hypothetically.

"Of course, we should not tell him that we instigated this. We can just tell him that we just offer help with John's revenge by referring him to the Gang that we know." Daniel promptly responded to him.

"Alexis will not get mad at us and he will surely protect his brother against the Davis Family's wrath. At least, we are not the ones who will be blamed."

After hearing that, Mark burst out laughing while patting Daniel's shoulder.

"Wow! So brilliant, cousin! You just found a scapegoat." Mark praised him with a matching round of applause.
