NovelStartChapter 940 Because someone looked good, because he caught a glimpse of that beauty by chance, an entire family was slaughtered! "You better pray you keep breathing, don't you dare die-the Inkster clan is waiting for you down below!" With those final words, Tarquin stood up, bit down on his back molar, and with a swift motion pulled the steak knife embedded in Gideon's hand. Blood sprayed out instantly! "Ah-" Gideon screamed in agony, fainting from the pain right there and then.
Tarquin left without a trace of emotion, as the bodyguards blocking the doorway hastily stepped aside to let him pass.
Once he was gone, everyone swarmed towards Gideon.
The knife had gone straight through Gideon's hand and even pierced the thigh, burying itself several inches deep.

Had I known he was this heartless, I should've ended him when I had the chance! An ungrateful snake, worse than his own father!" Kendrick had only disowned him, never harmed him.
But Tarquin? He dared to assault him publicly! Gideon was furious, "Does he really think I have no means to deal with him?! He seems to have forgotten, I still have his mother's ashes in my possession!" His confidant trembled: If not for those ashes, it might have been more than just a knife wound.
"Sir, please calm down, there's good news. Keith is dead." Gideon narrowed his eyes, "Dead?" "Yes, confirmed dead." "Hah!" Gideon scoffed, "Thought he could seek revenge against me? He should've checked his own worth! If he was so capable, he should've stayed alive to cafter me! If it weren't for his parents' disobedience, would I have killed them? They brought it upon themselves, yet dare to hold a grudge against me! Hmph!" "You're absolutely right, sir! But, what got into Master Tarquin today? Wasn't he enemies with Keith? It almost seemed like he was avenging Keith." Mentioning Tarquin got Gideon even more enraged, and he bellowed, "No matter what's gotten into him, we must bring him down quickly! Contact Alpha Thorne, tell him I agree to his terms!" His confidant was shocked, "?!?"

Gideon figured, no one likes being second best, and Alpha would surely want to dethrone Tarquin to take the top spot. To win Alpha over, he revealed he had leverage over Tarquin.
If Alpha was willing to cooperate, they could definitely take Tarquin down.
Alpha was indeed interested, but had his conditions.
Alpha wanted to personally see Elizabeth's ashes, to verify he wasn't lying.
His confidant whispered,
"Sir, if everyone turns to ash, how can Alpha tell whether they're really m Elizabeth's or not?" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
