Chapter 226: The Truth

“What the fuck!” Gregory yelled suddenly, standing up in the process.

“Are you fucking kidding us? How could Leo kill the previous Hercules?” Luciano questioned.

Grey sighed. “Well, I saw it. I watched Leo shoot my father to death before he shot me as well and I lost consciousness,” he revealed.

Gregory gave the chair two consecutive punches. “How can that be?” His angry voice echoed throughout the whole room.

“I’m not getting this. I’m just not getting it. So, this means we actually have an enemy in our midst? Giovanni isn’t the first enemy?” Jayden uttered.

“Hercules knew what this would cause, that was why he refused to say it until today. We shouldn’t misuse the opportunity. We should however be calm to hear the rest of the story,” Alfred explained.

Gregory grunted and forced himself to sit. “This is seriously rubbish! We need to ask Leo why he did it! What had happened? Why would one of the elders kill Hercules and injure his son!” He complained, feeling very disturbed.

If Leo wasn’t helpless, he knew what he could have done. He was in fact starting to feel Grey’s pain. No wonder, he had refused to see Leo and had insisted on killing him if he ever did.

“Well, I’ve been as skeptical and confused as you guys. I have no idea why my father’s closest friend would be the one to kill him,” he sighed.” But that’s not even the important thing today. Charles wasn’t surprised when I told him about it weeks ago. He knew that his father actually killed my father,” he revealed.

All gazes settled on Charles.

“He does?” Luciano was shocked.

Gregory launched an attack toward him. He grabbed him by the collar, “you knew and you refused to disclose it? And you kept all the elders silent!” He yelled to his face.

Charles said and did nothing.

“Gregory, leave him be!” Alfred persuaded. “We haven’t heard the end of the story.”

Gregory regarded him for another moment and released him suddenly so that he bounced on the chair.” This is seriously sickening! I don’t blame the fact that Hercules was about to pull the trigger at you yesterday! Your crimes are so much! What more have you and your father committed?” He yelled angrily.
