Chapter 566
However, just as Gordon finished speaking, Aidan appeared in the doorway.
"Since you want to die so badly, why don't you just dig your grave right now and throw yourself in it?
Living definitely sounds like utter torture to you," Aidan said in a voice as cold as icy waters.
When Sienna saw him, there was an undisguised scornful expression on her face. "If I have to die, I'll
die a worthy death. I can't just let you take control of the Pearson Family without doing anything at the
very least."
"There is no value in your life anyway. So, how can your death be worth anything?"
Her eyes went cold as her face twisted into something manic. "Stop wasting your breath, Aidan. Kill me
if that's what you want. I am not afraid of you."
He merely curled his lips into a cold smirk as any trace of warmth vanished from his eyes. "Killing you
will only dirty my hands," he drawled nonchalantly.
Her face twisted in anger. "What do you mean by that?"
"What you have done is enough to sentence you to decades in jail," he languidly continued. "It is
already a question if you can even leave prison alive. Why do I need to kill you myself? You spoiled
Anna rotten from the moment she was born. Something she couldn't handle would likely be hard for
you to get used to as well."
Her breathing stuttered, likely at the memory of Anna's terrible situation. After a few seconds, she
suddenly burst out laughing. "Aidan, oh, Aidan, I thought you were a powerful man for years. In the
end, you're just a spineless coward. Do you not even have the courage to kill me?"
"After all, I once planned on killing Leanna and that brat," she continued. "What a pity they were so
lucky as to avoid death. Nevertheless, I swear that I will never forgive them as long as I am still alive. It
does not matter where I am. Unless I die, this will never end. Just you wait for their deaths!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAidan's smirk slowly disappeared as murderous rage swirled in his eyes.
"Mrs. Pearson is overwhelmed by stress," Gordon said to a servant. "Send her back to her room to
rest."
Before the servant could get close to her, she had already stood up and pushed them away. "You think
I've gone mad?" she jeered with a laugh. "Yes, I've gone mad! I have been mad since the day of
Justin's accident, the day you brought this illegitimate son home! It's just death. Do you think I'm afraid
of that?"
She then turned to Aidan. "You were never a kind or generous man. What are you afraid of? Kill me if
you're a man! I killed your wife and son, yet you don't even have the balls to avenge them. What a joke!
You probably only care about yourself!"
However, just as Gordon finished speaking, Aidan appeared in the doorway.
Aidan merely stared at her dispassionately before he grabbed the gun from Keaton and loaded it.
Gordon's eyes went wide. "Are you crazy, Aidan?"
"She's right. She should have died a long time ago," Aidan replied calmly as he held the gun up and
aimed the weapon at Sienna.
Gordon took a few steps back in shock, almost dropping his cane. "Stop him!" he shouted.
Before Gordon's men could do a thing, Aidan had readied the gun. Then, as the locking mechanism
clicked, a woman's soft voice called out from behind him, "Aidan."
There was a loud bang, after which the vase on the wall shattered into pieces.
In the end, he had missed.
Sienna stared at him in shock for a few moments before turning to stare at the shards on the ground.
"You said all that just because you wanted me to kill you, right? I'm sorry to disappoint," Aidan stated.
Finally, he tossed the gun to Keaton. However, he did not turn to look behind him.
After all that time she spent scheming, she had not expected Aidan to refuse to kill her because she
assumed that he thoroughly detested her.
Unfortunately, he did not fall for the bait.
She chuckled. No one knew if she was laughing at herself or at him.
Suddenly, in a move that caught everyone off-guard, she grabbed the knife from the table.
Leanna did not have time to see what was going on before she sensed someone stepping in front of
her.
She opened her mouth to speak, but not a word came out.
"What are you doing now?" Gordon asked, panicked. "Don't you think you've caused enough trouble
tonight? How do you expect Justin to live with what you're going to do?"
"Do you think he would be embarrassed to have me as his mother instead of feeling regret over raising
such an ungrateful brat?" Sienna jeered.
She turned to Aidan and roared with great hostility, "Remember well; Justin is my son! He has never,
ever been your brother! From now on, you can only be enemies. After all, you forced me to commit
suicide!"
Before she finished speaking, she turned the blade to stab herself right in the chest.
Gordon fainted just as the blood splattered across the table.
When Leanna heard what Sienna said, she tried to move forward to help, but her eyes were soon
covered by a hand.
"Don't look," Aidan's deep voice whispered.
She stood there as she tried to recall what Sienna had said. Sienna was far from subtle, so coupled
with the commotion going around her, it was not hard for her to guess what had happened.
It was then that a man's gentle voice called out from behind them. "Aidan, why are there so many
people here? What's going on?"
Leanna sensed the hand covering her eyes go stiff.
Thunder echoed from the distance as heavy rain fell from the skies.
Justin rolled himself into the room. Before Aidan could respond, he spotted Sienna lying on the ground
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin a pool of blood with her eyes wide open even in death, while Gordon was sprawled out on the floor,
unconscious.
His smile went stiff as his eyes went blank.
Aidan closed his eyes and turned around. "Call an ambulance."
"Aidan," Justin called out.
Aidan gave Leanna a gentle push and said to Keaton, "Take her away."
Keaton glanced at Aidan's right hand, which was drenched in blood. "Mr. Pearson!" he gasped.
"Go."
Leanna turned around and looked at him with red-rimmed eyes.
Aidan shot her a faint smile and only looked away after Keaton led her away.
Meanwhile, Justin had moved to sit on the floor beside Sienna, leaving his wheelchair behind him. He
held her hand and choked out, "Just what... happened? Why did this happen?"
Sienna's body only responded to his question with wide, unseeing eyes.
She was dead. Her body did not even have a single puff of oxygen left in it.
Justin sat there with her cooling hand in his, feeling as if his strength was being sapped away.
Aidan walked over to him and muttered emotionlessly, "She said I forced her to do this and that you
were to take your revenge on me. I do not see anything wrong with that. I exacted revenge on her, so
you could do the same to me."
Justin stared down at Sienna's corpse and mumbled, "What can I do in my state? Aidan, she owed you
one. So, you're finally even."
"She owed me nothing, and you owe me nothing either," Aidan stated resolutely. "She chose this death
herself. Therefore, you do not need to feel guilty at all. Similarly, I do not feel as if I had wronged you
because she is dead."
There was a faint and miserable smile on Justin's face as he murmured, "Of course. That is for the
best."
