Chapter 321: successful plan
Grey pulled up in his house and entered the living room. Gregory and Alfred entered the room behind him.
"I thought we agreed to kill Alex. Giovanni should know how it feels when we lose someone we love, someone close to us," Alfred muttered.
Grey regarded Alfred for a moment. "You still don’t understand it? Alex must not die before Giovanni. Giovanni dies first. When he's dead, Alex and I will battle," he announced.
Gregory exchanged a look with Alfred but didn't say anything.
"After Alex is in the prison, we will plan on how to deal with Pablo, then Giovanni. I won't be the only orphan here. Alex will be an orphan too," he finished and walked upstairs.
Alfred turned to Gregory. "I think we should try to understand Hercules. He's probably feeling more pain than we are. I mean, it's not really easy on him,” he explained.
Gregory nodded once. "I was just surprised at his sudden change of mine but he seemed to always have a plan in mind," he released a sigh. "I guess we should continue with the plan."
Alfred nodded briefly.
Alex was still running when some men showed up from the front. He was already thinking of turning around when he saw one of his father's guards coming over.
A smile appeared on his face as he pulled to a sudden stop.
"Young Boss, are you alright?" One of the men inquired as the men went around Alex as if to protect him from unseen forces.
Alex nodded briefly as he tried to keep up with his breathing. "Let’s leave here right now."
The man turned to three other men. "Make sure no one is following us," then at Alex. “Let's go, Sir."
Alex didn't know what he was supposed to think exactly. He didn't even know if Jane was alive or not. Or why Grey had attacked them. How did he even discover the location?
His mind was reeling. He was almost dead. If he hadn’t been so fast, he would have been dead.
The sound from the tyre actually jolted him out of his mind. He looked up with a frown on his face. "Where are we going?"
'To the boss. He asked us to bring you over," one of the men responded as the car entered the garage.
Alex's heart made a sudden thud in his chest. "What! Why? Does he know about Jane already?"
The man nodded briefly. "He knows and we tried to get across to you but you were already gone," he said and opened the door.
Alex hesitated before he got out as well. He didn't know What his father would do and the thought alone was making him crazy.
Giovanni was fuming with rage when Alex walked inside. His back was against him, and his mind wandered around.
"Father-," Alex stammered.
'You better shut it there, Alex!" Giovanni yelled at him as he turned to look at him. "What nonsense did you just perform? Where are you coming from?"
Alex went mute for a moment. "I wanted to resolve the matter. People think we killed Jane but it would all go down if they know she's not," he explained.
"What!" Giovanni roared. 'You did what? Tell me it's not what I think. Tell me you didn't take Jane out of the house?"
Alex clenched his teeth in preparation. "I did but I didn’t expect what I saw.
"Hello," Giovanni said to the receiver.
"Are you at home? Can you switch on your tv? There's something you need to see," he informed.
Giovanni walked away from Alex and grabbed the remote.
"Is anything the matter?" Alex muttered softly when he saw Giovanni's reaction.
Giovanni didn’t reply and instead switched on the tv.
"Good because this particular news is on to four different channel," the commissioner of police informed and hung up.
Giovanni stared at the screen. At first, he merely saw some ruined properties and the corpses of some men, only to realise that the TV was on mute.
So, he unmuted it and increased its volume so that Alex would also be listening to whatever they would say on the news.
"So, it has finally been confirmed that Alex Montego kidnapped Jane and eventually killed her tonight," the presenter announced.
"Why!" Alex yelled and rushed to the tv.
The location that was showing on the screen was where he took Jane to, one of his uncompleted buildings. In fact, there were a lot of people at the scene and a lot of reporters reporting on the scene.
The police were already around as well.
Giovanni looked at Alex. 'You fool!"
