Chapter 226 - The truth

After crying her heart out, Aroma finally accept the fact that she can't bring her back. She's gone!

She cleaned her up herself and injected her with a needle which had the effect of drying out blood. It's more like a poison, but since she's dead, it will only stop the overflow of blood that's gushing out from the hit area.

She didn't cleaned the blood on the floor, but made sure to search the house and took away the poison box and antidote, her pictures and Austin's, which she later discovered more and also Diana's pictures which she didn't take before leaving.

She knew Cain will need this place to be investigated after Diana gave the information she has and didn't want Diana's picture in there.

They will start investigating how she survived after being marked like the rest of the victims and her identity will be publicized.

After handling everything there is to handle, she took Jenny's corpse with her and fled the scene.

....

Diana was now sitting in front of Cain in a private VIP restaurant he book within the short time they made an agreement to meet.

She stared at the dishes served in front of them and looked up at him, "I didn't come here to eat." she said.

"I'm just treating you as a gentleman." Cain replied. Actually he's happy. He's finally going to be able to show face on occasions and stop getting strange stares.

Most of his business partners were looking for minor excuses to cut their involvement in his enterprise. He didn't mind the money he paid and really wish to treat Diana out of appreciation.

"I got my payment already." Diana replied and ended up not eating the food.

After all the food was taken away, she didn't beat around the bush and explained Jenny's reasons for her craziness.

Seeing the questioning gaze Diana had after telling her story, Cain let out a deep sigh. He never thought all this could be related to the witch.

Yes! he's referring to Jenny's mother as a witch. "I assume you want to know the truth right?" he asked, his gaze has turned frozen and wasn't the polite one.

Diana nodded her head. "I want to." she said. She's lucky Cain didn't mind telling her, as she has no right to question the client. Once her job is done, she's expected to leave the country and return to camp.

Whatever is the reasons shouldn't concern her. Knowing too much will only get her deep in the issues, which shouldn't be so.

She's doing it for her conscience, which made her not qualified for the job in the first place. It's not every time that the target deserve death before she will have to get rid of him/her. Whatever his or her offense was is none of her business.

But she's lucky with Cain, as the man isn't the cruel type and really resort to their organization after the situation is getting out of hand.

Cain began, "miss Emily, I will start from the part where her mother is involved.

She's right about her mother being one of the founders of the organization. She worked hard for the corporation with my father and she got compensations for everything.

She got promotions as if getting presented with gifts from loved one. She was highly respected and her name was known as she wished.

But you know what miss Emily, she let it get to her head. I wasn't studying business, which was the main reasons why I'm alive today.

My brother was the one that's supposed to succeed the company after my father. Her so called mother whose name was Amelia." Cain frown after mentioning the name, while Diana studied his every expression as he told the story.

Cain clenched his fist before continuing. He never wished to hear that woman's name before he died, and can't believe he's talking about her.

"She was obsessed with the company and wanted it for herself despite everything my father did for her. She has a few shares she got as a gift from my father, which didn't affect the huge salary she's receiving.

Immediately my brother was brought in to start familiarizing himself with the staff and shareholders, that witch couldn't handle the fact that my father is giving the leading position to the rightful heir.

She wasn't even related. She was just someone who stick with my father since the beginning and was appreciated for it.

My father treat her so good that my mother started suspecting their relationship, yet the woman wasn't satisfied.

Because of her greed and obsession, she killed my father and brother, leaving her as the only potential leader, as she didn't count my existence as something.

I have a passion of my own, but was forced back into the country to take over, since I based abroad and work there.

I couldn't get over my father and brother's death, so I started investigating. She made it easy for me as she was busy poaching the shareholders to her side, which made me suspect her.

After my investigation and few setups, I discovered she's behind everything. She took my father and brother from me despite everything done for her.

Miss Emily, she's right about the part where her mother was cruelly killed, because I killed her myself." Cain replied, the temperature in the room seems to lower, while his irises were bloodshot already.

"About one of the higher ups sleeping with her and got killed, I don't know about the sex because I wasn't present, but none of the higher up died.

The only people that died were my Dad, brother and the new acquired employees." he said flatly.

Without saying anything further, he brought out his phone and made a call. After the phone connected, "bring in the files." Cain said, his gaze still frosty.

Diana didn't even know how to process these information in her head. One thing she didn't find fair about all this was those innocent victims. What was Jenny's thinking by coming to such resort?

Even though her mother was in the wrong, it will still be understandable if she killed Cain. One might take it that she didn't care about her mother's wrong and killed the killer, but killing those innocents, just to enjoy how the company crumble is ridiculous.

"Miss Emily, to make you understand what a crazy being Amelia was, I ended up killing her with my hand as a self defense, because she tried to kill me as well." Cain added, making Diana nearly widened her eyes in shock, but control herself as she was taught to maintain her professionalism in front of the clients.

Cain's assistant came in and handed over a file to Cain before leaving. "Miss Emily, here's the document to 2% of my company's share. It's my gift for the side mission. Thank you for your service and do have a wonderful night." Cain said and extended his hand, which Diana shook while still holding her breath.

Immediately Cain left, she let out a sharp breath and stared at the spot she only have to fill in her name and sign to own a company share.

"What the heck!" she exclaimed.
