"How did you lose the deal? You were so confident about it!" Thomas asked Oliver as he banged his hands on the table.
They sat at the dining table, opposite each other. It had been 5 hours since the last they talked, and the atmosphere was completely different. It was filled with tension and nervousness.
Oliver lost the deal that he was so confident about, and Thomas considered it to be his fault.
"I didn't know they were going to rebel all of a sudden." Oliver raised his voice, but it went down pretty soon as Thomas glared at him.
The people he was talking about were their business partners, and little did they know, all the people that Amy had kidnapped earlier.
"Dad, I was prepared for it. Trust me." Oliver tried to convince him, and the result was positive. Thomas looked away, but neither did he speak nor walked away; he was ready to listen to him.
"I think someone is planning against us, and that's why those idiots who never had the nerve to go against us refused our deal."
His words didn't convince Thomas much, but there was no other possibility in front of them, so he went with his opinion for the time being. After all, those businessmen weren't strong enough to go against the most powerful- AB organization.
"Could it be her...?" Oliver said hesitantly, and Thomas glared at him.
"She died six years ago, and even if someone from that family is alive, why would they stay silent till now? Stop this bullshit of yours!" Thomas got angry again, and his son just stayed silent.
"Also, she wouldn't dare come back after what you did to her." He continued and looked at Oliver, who was smiling as he felt proud of what he had done.
"Kill one of them, if someone is behind them then they would go to any extent to protect them or you know what I'll do to you..." Thomas ordered his son and also warned him about the consequences he was going to face if his guess was wrong.
Oliver nodded and got up at once. He ordered his men to follow him, and in no time, they disappeared from the dining area.

24 hours earlier
"Amy, isn't it dangerous?" Levi asked as they were discussing their next plan.
"Yeah, they'll square off kill them all..." Jane agreed with him. "What about our plan then?!"
"Mam, please think about it once again." Theo said hesitantly.
"We have to sacrifice a pawn if we want to win." She
gave her reason and then went quiet.
"What do you mean?" Theo asked and looked confused as hell.
"They won't kill all of them..." Aaron said suddenly. "Won't it be suspicious if their most loyal dogs suddenly go wild?" He asked, and Theo nodded like a child.
He still didn't understand their plan, and this made Amy chuckle for a second.
"They won't dare to kill them all at once. They'd want to know who's behind them and for that, they'll kill just one of them to see if we'll react to it." Aaron explained to him carefully, making the other two laugh cause Theo was being treated like a child by the most heartless man.
"We gotta let them think that they're winning and then...Boom." She had an evil smile on her face that scared everyone.

"Get going we have to finish it soon!!" Oliver shouted at his men as they drove to their target's house. It was the businessman who had offended Amy when she kidnapped them.
After a few minutes, they stood in front of his house, and without any delay, they barged inside.
That guy was shocked to the core to see Mr. Oliver Scott in his house. As far as he knew, Amy had sent men to protect him and all other businessmen, but now, here he was at Oliver's gunpoint begging for his life. Amy was making him pay for the sins that he had committed without even giving him a chance to run away.
The room was filled with Oliver's men, who wore black clothes and had a stern expression on their faces. Oliver stood in front of that guy, his gun pointed at his head. All the cameras were turned off by them. There was no chance that anyone would question them even if they knew the truth. That was what we call the terror of the Scotts in the underworld.
"Sir, please spare me..." He begged him and fell on his knees at once.
"Tell me who's behind you!" Oliver ordered him, but it didn't break him.
"I...I can't..." He replied hesitantly. He loved his business more than his life and didn't want all those dark secrets to come out, for they could destroy everything.
"I'm asking one last time... WHO IS IT!!?" Oliver lost his temper.
The man on the gunpoint stayed quiet and didn't even move a little. He lowered his head and just waited for his death.
"Sorry then..." Oliver said one last time before he pulled the trigger. The bullet went into his head, causing immediate death. Oliver didn't even flinch or have a disturbed expression on his face after killing that guy.
"Clear the scene." Oliver ordered his men and walked out of that old fashioned house.
He sat in the car, and the driver took him back to the mansion. He was calm and kinda relieved; he enjoyed killing people a lot.

"Done so soon?" Thomas asked as he noticed Oliver walked inside the mansion. He was sitting in his study, reviewing some of the documents. There were several books placed in cupboards around the room. Two guards were standing outside the study, and his butler assisted him.
"You know me." Oliver answered proudly, making Thomas smile.
"Was there any security?" The very next second, Thomas became serious.
"Just his regular guards; it was pretty easy to pass through them." Oliver said, and Thomas glared at him.
"So you were wrong..." Thomas said and stared at him. His gaze made Oliver shrug a little but nowhere near afraid. Thomas rolled his eyes; this was what Oliver always did, run away from his doings.
"SIR!!" Thomas's assistant came running inside.
"What??" The father and son said together and stared at him.
"Someone set our warehouse on fire..."
(Well, we know pretty well who did that)
