Diana - Chapter 236

Reality dawn on Shane a few minutes after Ethan and his men left. He didn’t let his boys know where he’s going, because he didn’t want them to realize he’s going to beg.

No matter what, coming here is like coming to plead with Hannah’s parent, which is also one of the main reasons why he didn’t bring anyone of them along.

Not even Michael knew about this, which made hi. come to a realization. He made it seem like he’s going for business stuff, which his boys could assume, as visiting his partners in crime.

Michael wouldn’t think much and kept his eyes on the company, because they knew he wouldn’t be grateful if they neglect the company and claimed they were looking for him.

This was the same thing he did when his boy prioritize his health over sneaking around Austin place and looking for weakness and whatever he wanted them to find.

He wasn’t grateful but complained. This alone wouldn’t make them worry about looking for him and face the task he left for them.

He realize there’s no way out and wonder if this is how he’s going to die. By the time those people couldn’t resist waiting and decided to search, he might be dead already.

He didn’t want to die. Even if he were to die, it should be an honourable death, not being binded to a metal chair with chains around his hands, legs, neck and  stomach like an animal.

He doesn’t deserve this. He wondered if he could call Ethan’s attention and make peace with him, or perhaps trick him into letting him out. His brother lived after all and his parents were healthy.

It’s not like he touched any of them, and also, his bladder is full. He wanted to urinate and wondered if he’s going to do that on his body if no one came in.

…

Ethan caught Diana’s expression and peck her on the lips, which Diana didn’t return.

She understand one thing immediately, as her heart began racing fast. She liked Ethan the way he is. She didn’t want him to change and go the same lane as those in his position does.

“Don’t mind him.” Ethan said to his caller and ended the call. There is an audio device in the room, which made it easier to listen to what Shane was doing.

On another note, Ethan didn’t plan to go there anymore and intentionally left the audio in there to hear what Diana will discuss with Shane while she’s dealing with him.

He wanted to know what she’s capable of and also know if she’s satisfied with ending him and lots more, which he isn’t sure about yet.

He ended the call and helped her down from the table, while Diana had traces of annoyance still lingering in her expression.

She remained still like a statue as he helped put on her clothes, and only moved when he picked up her bum short. She took it and put it on herself, while watched him dress up as well.

She was expecting him to say something, but he didn’t. But she knew it’s not appropriate to ask him who his caller was and what the conversation is really about.

Ethan was holding the urge to laugh and maintained a straight face all through. After dressing up, he wrapped his arms around her waist and looked into her serious expression.

“Anything you want to say, my wife to be?” he teased. The fact that Shane screamed alone was amusing. So, he couldn’t even last a few hours and was already shouting.

“Did you hurt someone?” Diana asked.

“Don’t you trust me?”

“I do.”

“Then don’t worry. I didn’t hurt anyone.” he said, making Diana shook the ugly thought off her mind. She chose to trust him.

“Go and have your bath, while I cleaned up the kitchen. I love Indian dishes, so let’s practice together.

“You’ve tasted it?” Diana asked.

“I used to visit their restaurant while on business trips and their dishes are awesome.” Ethan said.

Diana joined in, by praising the one Sarah made for her, which led to her wanting to learn how to make them.

“I’ve forgotten the process again.” Diana pouted, yet not completely herself. Her thoughts still lingered on the call.

“That’s what YouTube is created for.” Ethan said proudly, while Diana chuckled, “now go quickly, I have some tidying up to do here.” he added, placing a lingering kiss to her forehead.

….

In the middle of the night at exactly 2am. A chopper passed over Shane’s resident. Something dropped randomly from above it towards his compound.

It’s unknown how many explosive devices dropped, but after the chopper maintained a safe distance from the resident, “all set.” A young man in the chopper said to someone on the other end of the line.

“Good job, do it.”

Immediately the man got the order, he ended the call.

Everyone within the vicinity of Shane’s residents started coming out to witness his fate. No one knew he was not inside the house that’s burning down at a scary rate right now.

None of them called for help either and just watched as it burned.

Even if they called for help, they knew none of them can make it out alive. They have also been worried about their safety since the news about Shane being involved in those scary trafficking business.

Some moved from the environment because of him. Seeing him being killed in his home is actually a blessing.

The people who believed he’s at home and decided to take him and his men down was none other than his partners.

They asked him to take care of the scandal, but didn’t see any progress. The people they asked to help clear their names claimed his being alive is standing in the way, so they take him out for good.

They already gave him the privilege and he didn’t use it well.

…..

The news spread wide the next day, while most people came to see for themselves, which included Stella.

The house was done burning with smokes of the remains going up in the air. She was putting on a hat to conceal her appearance.

She had left home for the scene after listening to the new a few hours ago. She needed to see for herself.

She knew would have been in there as well, if she hadn’t escaped. ‘Does this mean she can finally walk freely? start coming to her mall without being watched? Is this freedom?’ A lot of thoughts were running her mind when she suddenly felt a hand around her waist from behind.

Her heart leaped, but calmed as she recalled the scent of Alex. The hat she had on was removed, making her eyes widened.

“No more hiding Stella.” he whispered into her ear.
