Alexander immediately understood what Elise meant. For some inexplicable reason, Owen wouldn't harm her and the child in her womb.

If that was the case, then Alexander had no reservations.

Just as he was about to say more, Owen snatched the cell phone from his hand. "Confirmation is all that's needed. You don't have to talk any further."

Alexander gave him a disdainful glance, his eyes full of resentment and anger.

Owen seemed not to have noticed. He sat in the chair behind Alexander, crossing his legs and propping his forehead with one hand while swirling his wine glass with the other. He stared thoughtfully at the red wine swaying inside. "Have you heard that Alexander died? Do you believe it?"

I'm standing right in front of you. What do you think?

"Of course, I don't believe it. Mr. Griffith is lucky and I don't think anyone can kill him," Alexander sneered sarcastically.

Owen was not angry when he heard that. He sat up straight and pointed at Alexander. "I was thinking the same thing. How about this? You can confirm it in person."

He paused for a moment and then turned to look outside the door. "Bring him in!"

As soon as he spoke, a group of people brought in a man and forced him to kneel.

Although the man's eyes were covered and his mouth was taped shut, Alexander recognized him from his clothing and facial features. He was Matthew, or more accurately, it should be Danny posing as him.

He came so quickly. I must say he's quite efficient.

One of the men stepped forward and tore off the tape. Danny immediately began to rave, "Who are you? Let me go! I'll have you know that I killed Alexander Griffith! If you offend me, you will die!"

Owen lowered his eyes, then lazily looked at Alexander. "I've brought the killer to you. Don't you have any questions?"

Alexander knew that Owen was using him to confirm the authenticity of the news.

"Is Mr. Griffith really dead?" he asked, cooperating with Owen.

"Johnny?" Danny heard the familiar voice and knew Alexander was playing along. As such, he laid it on thicker as he announced, "Yes! Alexander is dead. I was the one who killed him! You've been helping Alexander oppress me all these years, but just look at us now! He died in my hands. I am the last man standing! Hahaha!"

"Impossible!" Alexander raised his objections. "Mr. Griffith has always been careful and farsighted, and with Raymond and the others protecting him, you couldn't have gotten close to him!"

Danny scoffed and smirked arrogantly. "Everyone in Smith Co. except you and Alexander is all brawn and no brains. They don't even know they have a mole, so it isn't hard to take care of them."

"It's impossible. Smith Co. will never betray Mr. Griffith!"

"That's why I found an outsider. You guys can give it your all for Alexander, but he is here to protect his family. Speaking of which, he has left no evidence. He hasn't been discovered until now and even calls you his brothers. The accomplice was right beside Alexander, but everyone searched for him all over the place. It's hilarious!"

"I'll kill you!"

Alexander pretended to be provoked and he walked over to beat Danny up.

Soon, Danny was lying on the ground with a swollen face, but Alexander showed no signs of stopping.

Danny was rather speechless. Everyone with a different identity always reaches the pinnacle of their lives, but here I am, getting beaten up by Jamie and chased by the police. Even my brother is hitting me now. How miserable! I will never do this again, even if it means killing me!

Owen didn't bring 'Matthew' here to be a punching bag for Johnny. As such, he spoke up to stop them. "That's enough."

However, Alexander didn't listen and he started to hit harder.

Owen became impatient and took a stun gun from his subordinate's pocket. Then, he walked over and tasered Alexander on his back, causing him to tremble and then fall, successfully pacifying him.

Owen walked over, pulled down Danny's eye covering, and said arrogantly, "I heard you've been causing trouble for Alexander these years."

Danny turned his head and raised his chin arrogantly, not saying anything.

Owen frowned and his tone had a hint of warning as he muttered, "Speak."

Only then did Danny turn his face and disdainfully say, "I killed Alexander, but what did you do? Why should I talk to you?"

Owen smiled instead of getting angry. "Good. I like how you look down on everyone. Triune will protect you. You will be useful to me from now on."

Danny didn't answer immediately. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Alexander, who was on the ground, and asked, "How about Johnny? Is he your man or prisoner?"

"What do you want to do?" Owen asked.

"I want to get even with him!" Danny struggled to stand up and gestured to Owen to untie his bound hands.

Owen looked at Alexander and then at Danny. He curled his lips knowingly and untied the rope for Danny.

Danny moved his wrists before walking over to pick Alexander up from the ground. Pinning him against the wall, he punched him in the face, shouting, "C'mon, fight me! Didn't you want to kill me?!"

Facing Alexander's murderous gaze, Danny whispered in a voice that only they could hear, "Alexander, this is just an act. Endure it, okay?"

Alexander narrowed his eyes when he heard that. This isn't part of the plan.

Danny felt guilty as he improvised the show. However, Alexander had walloped him earlier, and Danny decided that it was too much. He couldn't help but think Alexander got the better end of the deal.

I'm not taking advantage of the situation, alright?

Danny decided to say that Matthew would hold grudges, so he had to hit back to make it seem real. This way, he wouldn't be afraid of Alexander's retaliation.

Alexander saw through his thoughts instantly and hissed, "You are dead meat."

Danny shuddered and quickly let go, thereafter stepping aside.

As Alexander was electrocuted just now, his limbs were now weak. As soon as Danny let go, Alexander fell forward and hit his head on the ground hard.

Danny took a deep breath and quickly looked away as he mused, I did not do that on purpose!

Owen was delighted with Danny's performance. "Not bad. You can always come to your old friend if you need a punching bag."

"How dare you order me around!" Danny looked at Owen arrogantly.

The crazy and arrogant personality was consistent with the characteristics of Triune. As such, Owen was not angry. Instead, he waved his hand and walked out first. "Come over in a bit. I will give you some tasks."

Danny looked back at Alexander, who was on the ground, and cursed before he followed Owen.

…

Narissa couldn't go anywhere with Jamie and could only accompany him at home, waiting for the Keller Family's elders to arrive before handing him over.

In the evening, Ariel heard about Jamie's illness and came to visit.

She handed Jamie the candy she had gotten from Alexia. "Do you want to eat this?"

Jamie's eyes lit up and he reached out to take it. However, he suddenly withdrew his hand and shook his head before hiding behind Narissa warily.

Narissa was not surprised by his reaction. She took the candy and offered it to him again. "Go ahead and eat it."

He happily accepted it and opened the wrapper. He then stuffed it into his mouth while smiling foolishly at her.
