98 A Haunting Past

The gunshots rang throughout the air, alerting the entire safe zone to Zane's misdeed. And while Zane's arm slowly lowered, as if it suddenly lost its strength, Elena gazed in dismay at what Zane had just done.

Naturally, Elena knew that from the moment Zane first saw his mother and the woman's boyfriend, he was going to kill the man. After all, there were things in Zane's past that could never be forgiven. But she had not expected him to outright shoot his mother dead in cold blood as well.

There was an anxious tone in Elena's voice as she only managed to speak a word towards the man who had just committed matricide in front of her.

As for Olivia and Angelica, they were slightly behind and had only just now caught up to Zane and Olivia, gazing at the aftermath of the man's wicked acts with horror on their faces. Just now, Angelica's opinion of Zane had slightly reversed, believing he was not as bad as she may have initially thought.
