Chapter 939 The Principle Of The Endless Shadow (1/2)

”Ricky...did Brad just move?” Soar's whisper sounded loud in the silence of the place, as he continued to stare wide-eyed at Brad.

”You are right, but I don't know why Brad attacked Norris. I never thought he would do something like this,” Ricky answered him, and from his startled expression, he was as surprised as Soar.

”How...how is this possible?” Even Jasper couldn't believe what just happened. He murmured lowly, ”I thought that the Endless Shadow had a strong alliance with the Nether Manor, and it was even rumored that Norris didn't trust anyone, even his deputy chiefs, except for Brad.”

”What is going on?” Varying expressions of astonishment could be found on everyone's faces, and their eyes swung quickly from Brad to Norris, then back to Brad again.

At that moment, all of them were as clueless as newborn babies, and only Brad, Winston, and Hubert probably knew the reason behind Brad's betrayal.

All their eyes shifted to Norris, as he slowly got up with a bloodthirsty look on his face. Blood was slowly dripping down his cheeks, which added to the feral and menacing aura he was radiating.

”Brad, you shouldn't have betrayed me!” he snarled at Brad.

”Norris, I know you will never trust anyone, especially in this martial world where the weak fall prey to the strong,” Brad sneered.

”You are right. I don't trust anyone. I only trusted you because I wanted to take advantage of the Endless Shadow,” said Norris with unusual honesty. Brad might have thought that he outsmarted him, but he had been stringing him all along! He continued, ”But I really don't understand why you dared to betray me. There's nothing in it for you, only death! And I never planned to kill anyone from the Endless Shadow.”

At that moment, Norris' curiosity over Brad's actions overpowered his anger over Brad's betrayal. He just couldn't understand why Brad chose to betray him.

From what he knew of Brad, he was the kind of person that put profit above all else. He wasn't someone who would sacrifice his life for others. Why would he choose to betray him now?
