Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Butch and Spike immediately rushed to Aidan's side, their faces filled with panic.

"Mr. Haywood Senior, are you alright?"

"Please, hang in there, sir!"

Meanwhile, Kenny and Sherilyn both looked horrified-if Tiana's sneak attack had actually taken down Aidan, this whole day would have become the ultimate joke.

"That filthy bitch couldn't hurt me even if I handed her the opportunity," Aidan growled.

He did not even glance at the small patch of blood on his chest. However, his old face twisted into a storm of fury and darkness.

Jameson stared at Tiana in disbelief. "Tiana, so you weren't really—"

Tiana cut him off with a snap. "You idiot! Did you seriously think I'd stoop that low? Do you think I'd ignore a handsome man like you just to kiss up to that wrinkled sack of rot? You think I could stomach that?"

Jameson was hit with a rush of surprise and relief, but it quickly turned into frustration. "If you were going to strike, why didn't you tell me first?"

"No time for that crap," Tiana replied, her voice sharp. "We need to get ready now. That old dog's gonna lose his damn mind!"

Sure enough, Aidan was already exploding with rage, his roar shaking the hall.

"Butch! Spike! Kill every last member of the Rhodes! And as for Tiana—that bitch lives, but she'll beg for death when I'm done with her!"
