RedNovelChapter 877 Everyone froze, wondering what Andrew meant by Tiana was pretending. Meanwhile, Bane's heart skipped a beat as a terrifying realization crept into his mind.
However, it was already too late. Before he could react, Tiana-who had been slumped in apparent weakness- suddenly tensed. Her fingers spread wide, a razor-sharp energy coiling around her fingertips, dark and lethal.
Then, with a sickening rip, her entire hand plunged into Bane's chest.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA garbled gasp escaped Bane's throat as blood gurgled up, spilling from his lips. His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked down, only to see Tiana's hand inside his chest-clutching his still-beating heart.
She insulted, "A runaway dog from the Advanced Medical Institute, a disgrace to the martial world. Did you really think you could outplay me?" With a cold laugh, Tiana yanked her hand back through Bane's body, her fingers squeezing as she pulled his heart free.
She casually tossed the organ aside, letting it hit the floor with a wet splat.
Bane's vacant eyes lost their final flicker of life. He collapsed, lifeless, his body crumpling to the ground in a heap.
Tiana had taken him down in an instant.
Somewhere in the room, someone audibly gulped. Everyone stood in stunned silence, staring at Tiana in shock. This woman-when she did make a move was more ruthless and terrifying than anyone had ever imagined. The fear she invoked in that moment was far greater than anything Bane had ever commanded.
Lauren's voice trembled. "Y-You were never poisoned?" Tiana smiled sweetly. "Of course not, my dearest. Did you really think I'd let myself be caught off guard and leave you exposed to a monster like Bane?" Andrew scoffed. "What a pointless charade." Tiana's expression darkened as she let out a sharp laugh. "Andrew, I have to know-how did you see through my act?" Andrew shrugged. "Was it really that hard?" Tiana's eyes flashed with irritation. "Even Bane and the others couldn't see through my disguise. Yet you did? Should I assyou were just taking a wild guess, hoping Bane would finishoff?" It was no secret that Andrew and Tiana had never gotten along.
Was it possible he had been trying to use Bane to get rid of her? If so, it was an incredibly ruthless move.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStill weak but furious, Jerry growled, "Andrew, never thought you'd be this vicious. Mrs. Rhodes may be ruthless, but no matter what, she's still Ms. Rhodes' mother. Don't you think you went too far?" Tiana sneered at Andrew. Killing Bane was nothing-she wanted more. Andrew had gained far too much influence in Rhodes Corporation, and today was the perfect opportunity to put him in his place.
However, Lauren stepped forward, her expression cold. "I believe in Dr. Lloyd. He never intended to harm Mrs. Rhodes. If anything, without him, do you really think we'd still be standing here? We all owe Dr Lloyd our lives."
At that moment, a team of security personnel rushed into the room. They quickly searched Bane's body, retrieving antidotes and distributing them to the poisoned executives.
One by one, the once-helpless executives began regaining theim strength slowly getting back on their feet.
Marcus stretched his sore limbs, his tone firm. "I trust Mr. Lloyd as well. He wouldn't have stayed behind to fight if he had truly wanted to harm Mrs. Rhodes. He could've left earlier and let Bane do as he pleased." swn& Lauren's reasoning, combined with Marcus' support, made the others hesitate.
She was right-if Andrew had truly wanted Tiana dead, the simplest solution would have been to walk away and let the massacre happen.
Why would he fight so hard if that had been his plan? Andrew snorted. "Mrs. Rhodes, there's no need to turn the crowd againstjust to push your own agenda." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
