Chapter 433: Chapter 431: HE MESSED UP BUT IT IS TOO LATE FOR ANY REGRETS
When the twins got outside, Diamond’s car was already long gone.
Without the other with them, the two brothers set off in a bad mood.
Kian wasn’t in the mood to drive, so he let Sullivan drive, as his concentration and focus were on the list that kept on changing, with more people going down as the money continued to decrease.
Kian felt guilty as he looked at the list. Diamond was indeed cruel this time.
His name was nowhere to be found. If his colleagues think the same as he did, they would even think that he was the one who exposed the list and wanted to get rid of everyone.
If there comes one who survives this ordeal, he might be in danger. This was the punishment that Diamond gave him.
To live his life in fear, and not knowing when his own men might come for him or his family, the one he wanted to protect in the first place.
If it wasn’t to protect his own, would he have poked a hornet’s nest and ended up in this mess in the first place?
Thinking about how all of this started, Kian, couldn’t help but feel guilty, ashamed, and remorseful but it was already too late for any regrets now. The deed was done, and regretting it just because he was caught, wouldn’t make him man enough.
It all started in January, and on the day that Diamond gathered everyone at her family’s house and told them about the drought issue.
At that moment, he was skeptical about the news, but knowing Diamond; he discarded his doubts and distrust and decided to trust her on this.
With how the weather has been like, without her talking about it, he could also tell that this year’s harvest might be a problem. But people were still carrying the hope that the sky might favor them and bless them with rain.
Unfortunately, until now, there hasn’t been a single drop of rain and the crops were long dead and dry because of this problem.
Droughts are very bad for everyone and yet very good for others. For organizations that seek profit above everything else, calamities, natural disasters, pandemics, war outbreaks and other unfortunate events were good money-making opportunities.
And why have a conscience when everyone else was doing it?
So, he decided to pass this wonderful news to his organization and earn some brownie points. Getting a higher rank in the organization meant more protection, prestige, and honor.
As someone who had joined the organization for over a decade, Kian was a key member of the organization, so his word wasn’t something that those in power doubted. He also didn’t dare toy with him.
When he reported this matter to the higher-ups, he reported it to the female official, the daughter of one of the top members, and he had no idea that this vixen had a thing for him.
All he wanted to do was report the information and see what the organization would do with the news.
But who would have thought that the lady knew more about him than he was letting on?
Because his relationships were private, he never bothered to report to the organization, and yet this lady knew everything about his relationship with Diamond. It made him panic.
In order to let the lady off his back, especially from Diamond, he took out the pills that Diamond gave him back then and unknowingly he made things worse.
The fact that Diamond could take such good pills meant that she wasn’t an average girl. In other words, he needed to report everything about Diamond to the lady. Dig and investigate Diamond, especially regarding the surrounding alchemists, or whether she was the alchemist herself.
She had a lot of money and judging from the businesses she had revealed; it didn’t make sense. The organization unconsciously became too interested in Diamond, and at that time, Kian knew that there was no way back.
He couldn’t defy the organization for a girl, and if he betrayed the organization, it meant that Sullivan would face the consequences.
So, to protect the flesh and blood, he promised his mother to protect always, Kian chose Sullivan over Diamond.
He mercilessly revealed the information he could find about her family to the organization, and ever since then, people had been keeping an eye on her parents. And she found that out.
No wonder why she was so furious and toyed with them like fools.
He dared to mess with her family, and now she was messing with his.
Wasn’t this fair?
But how did she find out such information that couldn’t be found anywhere?
Just who was her backer? That IT genius who can break so many firewalls and extract such encrypted files? Just who was backing Diamond?
Kain was so frustrated as he thought about this.
He didn’t even know where Diamond lived in Dielas, and considering what had happened, he doubted if she would even go to that house.
In Frin, he didn’t know where she lived. In fact, he doubted if other people knew where she lived. So even if he wanted to go to her and talk to her, he didn’t know where to go at all.
And if he dared show up anywhere near her right now when she was still fuming, who knows what she might do?
Kain found himself at a loss once again. At this moment, he can only go home, sit down and think of countermeasures to deal with this current problem and avoid getting into the crossfire.
While he was busy pondering over this, Sullivan was also having an internal battle as he digested everything that had happened that day.
When he recalled how smug he was when he started lashing out at Diamond and how he and his brother ended up on the cutting board shortly after, he couldn’t help but wonder what went wrong exactly.
He didn’t deny the fact that she played them. She knew what they wanted from the beginning, played along with them, and let them act like fools. Something that they did and made it impossible to reconcile with her in the future if it permits.
That was something that, honestly, he didn’t regret.
