No one had ever expected that Ryan actually betrayed Jimmy and even instigated rebellion among the rest of them to fight against him.
Jimmy turned into a livid face, “Ryan, how dare you!”
Ryan shook his head, “You’re wrong! I did so only to survive. You can never afford to fight this man!”
Ryan was speaking the truth he came to realize as far as he knew about Leo. And that was what he believed. However, in the view of Jimmy, he told something different, “You did conspire with him!”
Ryan paused, looking a bit surprised. But then he shook his head again, “No, I just want to survive.”
Leo fixed his eyes on Ryan, looking a bit expectant.
To be honest, he never grew hostility against a discerning man just like Ryan.
Though Ryan once tried to kill him, he learned his lesson after failing for a few times.
So he made the right choice before the doom of the Perries.
“All of you are gonna betray me?” Jimmy looked around all of them with monster-liked madness.
Theo developed the cooperation with him only to benefit each other. He then sneered, “We all confide in you but you only wanna manipulate us to get yourself benefit! Your death is gonna be the payback!”
As Theo took the lead to say so, the rest of those unlawfully-born all fixed their eyes on Jimmy with anger.
The situation changed so abruptly that Millie didn’t even notice what was going on.
Just a second ago, she and Leo were facing the threat of death with so many guns pointing at their heads. But now Jimmy, the real culprit, suddenly ended up being the target.
“What…what was going on? Why did Ryan betray him?” she asked with great disbelief.
Leo pulled her to the corner to explain, “He just wanna survive.”
The chaos among the Perries was running too wild to be ceased. So every one of them made the best choice for their own—to kill Jimmy as told by Theo though they knew he was just instigating. After all, Jimmy would definitely start to conspire against them after his rebellion succeeded. So it would be a wise choice to get rid of the biggest potential threat before it grew to be a real one.
Whatever, now both Leo and Millie were safe. She couldn’t help breathing a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Jimmy put on a twisted face, “Great! Since then, I gotta kill you all!”
Theo still remained a disdainful look. Now he had made a clear break with Jimmy, “Jimmy, now you are the target of all. Stop playing tough!”
Though being besieged, Jimmy still showed no fear. Instead, he smiled weirdly, “I mustered up all of you as the only mastermind.
I can’t believe you guys are so naive to believe that you can kill me after losing my support?”
Theo paused shortly out of surprise when noticing his unusual composure. Then he asked with mere agitation, “Don’t you fear
what you are gonna face?”
“Fear? For what?” Jimmy kept sneering and suddenly turned to look at Leo, “I kept the trump for you, Leo...But now it seems
that I gotta waste it on a bunch of morons!”
As soon as he finished, the rest of the unlawfully-born, including Theo, were all looking a bit nervously worried. But Leo just
squinted and smiled, wondering what kind of trump Jimmy was talking about.
However, none of them responded. Each of the killers was holding a sharp dagger, approaching those unlawfully-born and their
guards as swiftly as a ghost.
The residence of the Perries was filled with strong smell of blood. Dead bodies scattered all over the ground, on the surface of
which blood flowed like a stream.
