The maids recounted the events one after another.
"Peter bumped into Ms. Frazier. We heard her scream for help, but when we tried to intervene, he yelled at us to back off."
"I saw him slap Lara and threaten to throw her into the ocean to feed the sharks."
"We saw Peter dragging Ms. Frazier away. She called for help, but Peter drove us away."
...
The maids, who had previously been subservient to him, were all accusing him now.
Colors drained from Peter's face, and he said desperately, "Lies! You're all lying. I am innocent. These wretches are conspiring against me. Sir..."
Drake narrowed his eyes, sneering, "I gave you a chance. You've wasted it."
"Sir, please don't," Peter pleaded tearfully.
Drake raised his hand, and the two mercenaries stepped forward, grabbing Peter's arms.
With one final, desperate cry, he was thrown overboard, his voice fading into the night as the waves swallowed him.
The maids huddled together, terrified, as the splash echoed through the quiet sea.
Drake, appearing uninterested in the spectacle, turned on his heel and strode back toward the cabin.
"Sir." Lara opened the door for him.
The room was empty, and Drake frowned. "Where's Debra?"
