Diana - Chapter 273
After Chris has managed to take control of everything smoothly, which surprised him. He was expecting the owner to discover at some point, but that didn’t happen, which made him go to the extent of taking control, instead of just deactivating them.
After taking control, he was able to scroll the scene in the entire place. He didn’t see the guys who were busy avoiding the installed cameras, but could see the scene where Aroma and Austin were fighting.
He saw the twins and realize Nathan’s crew has come for rescue already. Not knowing what to do, as the place seem less dangerous for him and his crew now, he decided to go in as well.
….
Without a change in Ethan’s expression, he fired a shot, which hit Austin’s chest.
Aroma’s eyes widened, as she quickly held him and both slowly go down. Ethan dropped the gun and pulled Diana towards him.
He began pulling off his shirt, while Nathan slowly dropped his hand that was about to fire a shot before Ethan does, but before dropping the hand, Aroma look back at him.
Their eyes met, and he could see the pain in her expression, as if she couldn’t believe Nathan could do this to her.
She returned her gaze back to Austin, who was bleeding through his mouth, same as the hit spot. “You… really would have stayed with me?” he asked softly, which encourages more blood coming out of his mouth.
Aroma nodded her head, while her right hand stroke his face gently, “I told you to let her be Austin, now you’re leaving me too?” She said, her tears dropping nonstop, while her face kept turning more white than it already was.
Austin smiled, with her bloody teeth in the open, “Tiffany, I finally understood her. I understand why she couldn’t come back. It’s because of the addiction. It’s for revenge at first, but the fun in between get addictive.
When it gets to the point where there should be a stop, the addiction would take over…..” he said and slowly closed his eyes.
“No no no no no,” Aroma screamed repeatedly, while hugging his head to her chest. “You can’t die, you can’t leave me…”
Ethan’s head snapped towards her direction after hearing that word, but returned it back to helping Diana put on his shirt.
Nathan watch the scene. For the first time, his head was blank. He didn’t even know what to think at all. He just stood there like an idiot until, “sir?” he heard one of his men spoke through the earphone.
“I’m here.” he muttered softly.
“There are some men entering the building right now. There are 11 of them. 10 were in suit and armed, while a guy that seem to brought them was having a laptop in his hand and viewing the scene of the room you’re in…..” on of the sniper that didn’t get to do anything, since Austin doesn’t allow people in his place, has seen Chris and his crew, where they are lurking at, and see that they are finally making a move.
Nathan creased his brow slightly, wondering who could have come to rescue Ethan and Diana. “let them come.” he said.
Nathan return his attention to the people in front of him. Ethan was close to where he stood, which could have made Aroma assumed that he fired the shot. Ethan was near, but he’s looking so far away.
Except the tears that’s streaming down his face and his lips that kept moving, but not uttering anything loud for anyone to hear, his expression was blank. It was as if his whole world has turned apart.
He has finished putting on the dress for Diana and was busy buttoning up the shirt. His arm that got hurt was now looking double its size, yet he seems like he isn’t feeling any pain.
He really didn’t know what to say at all. Not only is his woman in this state and he’s hurt, he just lost his baby. Even though he didn’t know much about emotions, he knew this is awful.
All of a sudden, “All he needed to stop was me offering myself, and you killed him.” Aroma spoke up, slowly raising her head from burying it in Austin’s chest and carefully dropped him on the floor, before standing up.
She turned around and face Nathan, “he was about to give up and allow me to save her. Everything could have been settled. I told you who he is to me, and you killed him?” Aroma spoke again
Nathan stared into her eyes, that were bloodshot, but thankfully, one can’t cry blood. If it’s possible, the girl will be crying blood at the moment.
“I could have made all this stop. All he need to stop is me! he has his reasons for doing all he did. The girl that died is all he has.
He just knew there’s no life without me and Jenny for him. He has no one. All he needed to stop is me and he finally calm, but you killed him…” while speaking, Aroma was already walking towards Nathan.
Seeing her brought out a dagger, Nathan frown slightly, and also glad she had no idea it’s Ethan that fired the shot.
“Tiffany, what do you think you’re doing?” he asked, but Aroma increased her pace in return.
“You killed him!” she screamed and charged at him, slashing her weapon at him, while Nathan evade all the attacks, and trying to calm her, yet her attack got fiercer and fiercer.
Ethan who was done clothing Diana and has been listening to everything Aroma was saying, picked up the gun beside him.
Nathan’s eyes widened in shock and was about to talk, but Aroma slash the knife at his face which he evade, but the sound of gunshot followed.
Aroma’s hand that was about to deliver another attack paused in mid air, as the bullet hit her back. Nathan quickly held her before she could hit the floor, “hey! Tiffany!” he exclaimed as blood spurt from her mouth.
Series of gunshot followed, as Ethan shoot the already dead Austin till the bullet exhaust, before picking up Diana and started walking out, while Chris just arrived at the entrance.
