"I tell you all... There's something wrong with this mansion." A person said shakingly.
"Missing persons, strange howls at night... You all don't think this place is haunted, do you?"
"Nonsense!" Many retired swiftly. Though a little piece of them wanted to agree, they quickly denied the proclamation, wanting nothing to do with it.
"How can you think like that? Where is your head going? Do you want to get locked up in a loony bin?"
"That's right. Your thoughts are too dangerous. If you want to go down, then don't read us with you!"
"I agree. It's more likely that we have a serial killer amongst us all. That alone is enough to give me nightmares."
"But are you sure? The police have been here twice but haven't found any dead bodies buried or any evidence. So what if it's one of our boss' enemies targeting us to pull our boss in the mud?"
"I think you make a sound point. With how long we've been working here, we all know how vicious the world of the rich can be."
Many workers continued their chores, attending to the gardens, cooking, enabling, and doing other activities in heated gossip.
Who could blame them?
Many strange and unexplainable things have been happening in the Kwo estate.
And with no leads or evidence, everyone felt they wrre sitting in a ticking time bomb.
So far, 11 staff have vanished, all of which were proud and wouldn't be missed by them.
However, that didn't mean they were comfortable seeing them disappear so suddenly.
Some say the missing people owed debts and vanished, others say they traveled unexpectedly, and some say they were fleeing from family responsibilities.
Each of these 11 was indeed scum who also had chaotic lives out of work. But all this was too much of a coincidence.
Additionally, 5 guards have been declared missing too. So what's truly going on here? Or could it be the work of some vigilante like Batman, swooping in and cleaning the scum people up?
Suddenly, the Kwo estate was shrouded in darkness, posing a gloomy air that made many dare not laugh.
They didn't know why, but the longer they stayed in the estate, they felt so down and dreary, especially seeing the police come in severally and the updates for missing people increasing.
Botan's eyes flashed with determination.
He used to be a Tian guard before following Wei Kwo.
It's true that the Tian couple saved him and did a lot for him after that.
But expecting him not to betray them... wasn't that moral kidnapping?
So what if they were good to him in the past?
If they truly cared for him, why didn't they use their connections to let him rise to the top and meet other powerful employers? Why couldn't they introduce him to old Gia or better than them?
Since he was young till now, power has been the only thing in his eyes. He was never satisfied, climbing higher from every position.
So the fact that the Tians were one of the big giants didn't make him feel awed.
Why couldn't he be working for the nation's president?
Botan didn't for one second feel bad about betraying Dorian's parents.
But what he seemed to have forgotten was that Dorian's parents had given him numerous chances and opportunities to leave.
Did they tie him up and lock him in a dungeon? As a grown man, if he wanted to leave, he could. But because he had no bigger thigh to hug, he stayed put, ripping the privilege of working with the Tians.
And when Wei Kwo offered him a better chance, he quickly betrayed them in a heartbeat. However, he soon realized how incompetent and weak his new employer was.
Botan felt the entire Tian household was mocking him and playing with his life. And thus, revenge was in order.
What's more, since he also participated in placing Dorian's parents in a coma, now that the boy was growing stronger and getting chummy with bugger forces, it would only be a matter of time before the boy came for his own revenge.
In that case, he had to strike the iron while it's hot!!!
Don't blame him for being cruel.
Botan stood calmly.
He was ready to kill them all!
