NovelEnglish"Alexander, why don't you ever lock your doors?" Walter queried, his question seeming like a casual
afterthought. Alexander merely regarded him in silence for a few long moments before finally responding,
"Perhaps you should start worrying about your own security." With that cryptic statement, he turned on his heel
and made his way to a car waiting at the doorstep. Walter's smile faded incrementally as he trailed behind
Alexander.
Quinn, who had been concealed behind the door, held her breath until the sound of the departing cars had faded
into the distance. Only then did she dare to carefully open the door and step out. Walter had been casting a
dark, ominous shadow over her psyche for days, his mere presence enough to send shivers of fear coursing
down her spine.
Meanwhile, Alexander made his way back to the Kennedy Residence. Inside, Freya and Kaitlyn were waiting, their
tension palpable in the living room. The moment they caught sight of Alexander, Kaitlyn strode up to him, her
hand reaching out to grasp his arm. "Alexander," she greeted him. He responded with a slight nod, then asked,
"Where's Dad?"
"In the study. But be warned, he's not in a good mood," Kaitlyn cautioned. Alexander grunted in
acknowledgment, his demeanor nonchalant as he made his way to the study. He knocked once before entering.
Inside, Wayne stood with his back to the door, his gaze lost in the view provided by the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDespite being in his sixties, his hair silvered by age, his physique was still robust, his posture as straight as a
soldier's. Alexander approached him, breaking the silence with a simple, "Dad."
Wayne turned around, his eyes ablaze with fury behind his reading glasses. His gaze landed sharply on
Alexander. "Look at the mess you've made! Look at it!" With a sudden movement, he thrust a stack of papers
against Alexander's chest, causing them to scatter all over the floor.
Alexander remained unfazed. He bent down, picked up a page, and quickly scanned the information. "This is one
of Walter's projects," he noted.
Wayne glared at him, his anger barely contained. "He claims you approved it. Is this ssort of gbetween
you two? Who am | supposed to hold accountable for this disaster?"

Alexander met his father's gaze unflinchingly. "I did approve it, but the project proposal was sound. The issue
must lie in its execution."
Wayne, now seething, glanced toward the door before lowering his voice to convey his true thoughts. "A project
of this magnitude, and you let him handle it alone? What were you thinking?" Despite Walter having been a part
of the team for two years, Wayne had never fully trusted him. And now, the current events seemed to validate
his suspicions.
"These investments are spread across various firms, and now what? They're either going bankrupt, closing down,
or even under investigation. No firm is without fault, and the coincidences are too numerous to ignore."
"I'm sorry, Dad. It was my oversight. Walter has always been competent since he joined, so | didn't intervene. |
trusted him too much," Alexander admitted, his eyes downcast, pretending to be remorseful.
Wayne was beyond upset, pacing in front of the window, his agitation clear. After a few steps, he turned back to
face Alexander. "What now? Can we even recover the money?"
Alexander responded, "Well, that's up to Walter."
