He knew sticking with Gideon for a lifetime wouldn't get him as much. After all, even Gideon himself didn't have this much!
If he sold out Gideon now, those shares would be his.
Plus, Gideon would surely be done in by Tarquin, so he wouldn’t have to worry about any retribution!
After much deliberation, with a thud, he knelt before Tarquin,
"Master Tarquin, I know who poisoned young Master Elijah!"
Gideon gasped, shooting up from the couch!
The Bradfords all turned in shock toward the man kneeling on the floor, "What?!!!"
Tarquin, frowning slightly, asked him, "You know?"
"Yes, yes! I know!"
"Speak!"
"It was... it was..." The confidant turned to look at Gideon.
Gideon, nearly spitting blood in fright, glared at the confidant, panting,
"You scoundrel! For a mere 20% of the shares, you dare to slander your own master?"
The confidant trembled,
"Master, don't blame me for being disloyal. If you wish for something to remain a secret, then don't do it at all. Even if I didn't speak up today, the things you've done couldn't be hidden forever. Sooner or later, it would've come out."
"You..." Gideon grabbed his cane, ready to strike, but Axel immediately grabbed his wrist.
Without a word, Axel forced him back onto the couch.
Tarquin glared harshly at Gideon, then turned to the confidant,
"Spill everything you know, and the shares are yours!"
The confidant hurriedly said,
"It was the master who poisoned young Master Elijah, not just this time but before as well!
