-“Yes. Miss Cuber found the same insignia on Matthew. Clement
and I were there.”
That confirmed that Matthew was a member of Area X, just like Zephyr. Everyone pieced the puzzle
together. First, Matthew made his escape, then Area X attacked Smith Co. It wouldn’t have been so
smooth if they didn’t have help from a spy. Naturally, Zephyr became the main suspect.
For some reason, Clement was talking a lot today. “You call yourself a doctor, and yet our boss still isn’t
healed yet. It’s been so long. It’s weird, don’t you think?”
Danny wavered, and he asked, “Anything to say for yourself?”
“You can always switch me out for someone else if you suspect foul play,” said Zephyr calmly. He
wasn’t panicking at all.
That put everyone in a dilemma.
Johnny then came up with a compromise. “Coincidentally, I have a doctor with me. Next time Dr.
Lorwhal writes a prescription, he can check it for us. Is that alright?”
Zephyr chortled. “A coincidence? That’s a convenient excuse,” he said sarcastically. Then he turned
around and stopped beside Clement. “Now get back to surgery if you don’t want to lose your leg.” After
spending some time with Clement, Zephyr knew what he was like and he wasn’t angry at Clement for
suspecting him.
“We should let Smith Co.’s doctors do it,” said Raymond. Zephyr could be the spy. If he tried anything
funny during the surgery, Clement would be done for. He didn’t want to risk anything, since Clement
only got hurt because of him.
“Fine, your call. I won’t force you guys.” Zephyr didn’t even argue. He was happy to leave.
“Take me to the operating theater,” said Clement hoarsely. “He’s a b*stard, but he never attacks his
patient.”
Raymond nodded. Very well, then. He held Clement up and hobbled over to Zephyr.
Everyone saw them off, and Danny said, “We don’t know if he’s really our ally. You made the right call,
Johnny.”
“Yeah. We should see Mr. Griffith now.”
“I’m coming with you.”
They all went to Alexander’s room. Danny lamented, “Ever since Elise went missing, Alexander’s
health has been getting worse. He might not hold out for much longer at this rate. I—”
His sentence was cut off by the sound of curtains closing. Not a moment later, Melody had drawn all
the curtains.
“Why did you do that? It’s daytime.”
Danny was flabbergasted. Before Melody could say anything, Alexia cheered, “Daddy, you’re alright!”
He turned around and saw Alexander holding Alexia. He was using one arm. It seemed like he was
holding the child up easily, yet his face was pale.
Thinking Alexander was putting on a show, Danny tried to take Alexia away. “What are you doing, Lexi?
Your father is still ill, so come down.”
However, the moment he touched Alexia, someone held his wrist. Danny froze and stared at
Alexander’s hand in confusion. It’s a strong grip. Doesn’t feel like he’s weak. Wait a minute… He
looked up and saw Alexander looking refreshed, unlike what he looked like a moment ago. His lips
were still pale, but the air around him felt tense. Danny was even starting to suffocate a little.
“Alexander… It can’t be…” Filled with excitement, Danny couldn’t even form a coherent sentence.
Alexander patted Danny’s shoulder and nodded, confirming Danny’s guess. Everything was just an act.
He wasn’t poisoned at all. “Wait, so the thing with Zephyr was a ploy?” Danny smacked his legs. That
was a perfect act. I didn’t notice it at all.
Alexander smiled and turned to Melody. “Did you bring it?”
Melody nodded and placed the large suitcase on the coffee table. Alexander put Alexia down and
unlocked the suitcase after entering a password. A realistic-looking mask made in the image of Johnny
was lying in the case.
Johnny arched his eyebrow. “No wonder you wouldn’t let me see it. I see I’ve been kicked out of the
main team.”
He noticed the suitcase on his way there, and he asked Melody what was inside, but she wouldn’t
reveal anything. I should have known. Back then, Kenneth’s mask was packed in a similar suitcase.
Everyone said nothing as Alexander wore the mask. It was a new experience for them. Not a moment
later, Alexander had changed into the mask, and he styled his hair a little. Then, he turned around and
looked at Johnny. “I have an important mission for you.”
Johnny puffed out his chest, looking solemn. “I’m ready for anything. Let’s go.”
Alexander turned around and peeled off the protective layer of the first mask that was still in the
suitcase, revealing what was underneath. It was another mask, though it was made in the image of
Alexander.
“What is this?” Johnny had a bad feeling about this.
“As you can see, this is your mission. You’re taking my place. The enemy needs to think I’m still healing
up,” said Alexander.
“We’re going to war with Triune soon, and you expect me to do this? I refuse.” Johnny refused to do it.
He wanted to battle alongside his comrades.
“Refusal denied,” said Alexander. “Staying back is the biggest challenge for a guy like you. Enjoy your
vacation.”
Johnny heaved a sigh and reluctantly took his coat off.
Alexander took his coat and put it on before approaching his kids. “Stay with Johnny. I’ll bring your
mommy and sister back.”
The children nodded.
Alexander hugged the kids and left the room.
Danny sent him off, but before Alexander left, Danny realized Jamie and everyone else knew nothing
about this. He said, “Should we tell Jamie and Narissa? They’re worried about this.”
“No. Narissa can’t keep a secret, and Jamie is a lousy liar. If we tell them, this act is done for.” We need
some members to be kept in the dark for this to go on.
