CHAPTER 250
Chapter 250: An eye for an eye
Tiana couldn’t stop crying.
Charles showed up from behind and hesitated when he saw Tiana. “Wait, Tiana is the murderer, or has he
escaped?”
“She is,” Grey responded as his gaze searched around quickly. “We need to leave here immediately. Todd’s men are all around looking for you,” he explained.
Charles nodded once. “I saw them when I was coming here.”
Grey regarded Charles for a moment. “Take her to the car, I will meet you guys there soon,” he finished and walked ahead, just as three men showed from afar.
Charles led Tiana away quickly to the car.
Grey hesitated in front of the men. “you won’t find him here. He got away quickly,” he lied.
The men regarded him for a moment.
“How are you so sure?” One of them asked.
“Well, as you can see, I’m just coming from that direction. I’ve searched everywhere but he’s not around here. So, I thought he left already,” he explained.
“Who are you by the way?” One of the men asked.
“Well, he’s the man that saved Boss from the bullet. He deserved some respect,” another scolded before he looked at Grey. “Let’s go, Boss will be waiting for you.”
And they led him to Todd’s car. The bar have scattered already as people have run for their dear life. So, Todd already decided to leave as well.
“How did you know the gun was aimed at me?” Was the first question that Todd asked when Grey got to him. There was this blank expression on his face that made it hard to judge if he was pleased or not.
“I saw the red dot and I found it weird. That was why I pushed you off. And it turned out that it was a bullet,” Grey explained. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Todd nodded briefly, a smile etching up. “Nice work, young man. Here’s my business card,” he stretched out the small ID. “Come and see me when you are free. I will be waiting for you. I will give you something for what you did for me back there,” he hinted.
Grey took the ID, with a smile and watched him enter the car. The car pulled out into the street before Grey walked to his car. By then, Jimmy and Richard were also I’m the car as well.
Tiana was still sobbing quietly, and the gun was beside her.
“What do you think, boss?” Charles asked.
Grey regarded Tiana for a moment. “Charles, call Beatrice and ask her if Caramel is at home.”
Charles nodded briefly and picked up his phone to do exactly what Grey had said.
Grey’s phone rang suddenly and it was Don. He sighed and picked it up.
“Hi, boss. I have some bad news. Samson is dead already,” he announced.
Grey nodded briefly. “I’m aware. I will talk to you later,” he finished and hung up.
Charles turned to look at Grey. “She’s not around.”
“Alright, let’s go to my house then,” he announced. Richard started the ignition and drove out of the bar.
Grey wanted to wait in the first place but there was no way he could do it anymore. Tiana has been filled with revenge already and it wouldn’t stop until she kills Todd.
And he had to give her permission to do so. So, he needed to hurry up with his plan. He needed Todd in
his plan.
Tiana was escorted inside the living room.
Beatrice was waiting in the living room. “Grey, is everything alright?”
Grey nodded briefly. “I only need to speak with Tiana. Everything will be fine,” he assured her and turned to look at Charles. “You can leave but inform the elders that we are having a meeting very
soon.”
Charles nodded briefly. “Alright.”
Grey glanced at Jimmy. “You can leave. Only Richard is allowed to stay because he would be dropping Tiana off.”
Jimmy bowed and walked out with Charles.
Grey walked to Tiana and sat beside her. “Are you angry at me?”
Tiana hesitated before she shook her head briefly. “I don’t just understand why you would want to spare the enemy’s life. Todd deserves to die a thousand deaths.”
Grey let out a sigh. “How did you know Todd was the one that killed your son?” He asked softly.
Tiana sucked in her breath at the question. “The operation was successful. So, I decided to get something for Samson at home. Had I known I wouldn’t have left him,” she started crying again. “I forgot my purse and went back to retrieve it. Then I saw Ross, the man Fred does send to me sometimes. I knew they were in it together and they serve Todd,” she choked on her word. “They shot him in the heart!”
Grey regarded her for a moment. “How did you survive?”
Tiana looked up at Grey for a moment and slowly pulled down the sleeve of her shirt. There was a bandage around her arm, in fact, it was drawing blood already.
“I got shot and they just thought I was dead as well. That’s why I need to kill Todd and Ross. I need to shoot a gun to their heart. An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth!” She said with determination.
Grey took her hands into his. “I understand your pain, Tiana but I need Todd currently. I need him to help me clear off the spies around me so that I can officially claim Hercules’s position but I promise that you will be taking this revenge by yourself. I will let you shoot him in the heart for your son. Will you do this for me?”
Tiana nodded briefly. “As long as he would die and I would be opportune to grant the oath I swore for my son. I will.”
Grey smiled softly. “You can have Ross now. I do not need him. But you will need to take very good care of yourself,” he let her go. “I will tell one of my men to guard you. In fact, he can help you with Ross.” Tiana bowed with tears still streaming down her face. “Thank you so much, boss! Thank you!”
