A subtle shift flickered in Wayne's eyes as he posed his question, "Then what is it? After everything you've done,
what do you expect from me?"
The room was heavy with an invisible tension, a delicate atmosphere that lacked the warmth of family and the
stark hostility of enemies.
"Do you think you've been good to me?" Alexander countered.
Taken aback, Wayne retorted, "What now? You think I've wronged you all these years? | gave you shares, handed
the company over to you, and this is how you thank me?"
A dry, sarcastic laugh escaped Alexander's lips. "Shares? If Ulysses had still been around, would you have
divided them just to shut him up? Besides, that 30% you distributed didn't even cdirectly from you, did it?"
A slight change in Wayne's complexion betrayed his surprise. Indeed, Alexander was right; the shares hadn't
been in Wayne's possession when they were divided.
Ulysses, having retired, had washed his hands of these matters, leaving it up to Wayne to decide. Ulysses had
intended for Alexander to take over his position, but Wayne, claiming he was still young, vetoed the idea. The
plan was set for Alexander to start as CEO for experience, while Wayne stepped back to becChairman.
When it cto the shares, Wayne didn't want Alexander to hold too much power, so he decided to appear fair
and divided them among several children.
To this day, people praised him, calling him a good father. This information wasn't known to anyone else, and
Wayne was unclear how Alexander found out.

how would you have justified it?" Alexander pressed. "As for handing the company over to me, Dad, was that
genuinely your own will, or was there another reason?"
Wayne lost his composed demeanor, looking at Alexander in surprise, "How did you find out about these things?"
"Is it that hard to find out?" Alexander retorted. "So, I'm still in the dark about your true intentions here."
Luke Yeager was an illegitimate son; despite his abilities, Wayne wouldn't normally go out of his way to favor him
like this.
Suddenly, Wayne stood up, turned his back, and assumed a posture as if he were shooing someone away. "I'm
no longer the chairman of the Landry Corporation; you're the one in control now. There's no point in asking such
questions." Alexander stared at the retreating figure for a long moment before rising to his feet and quietly
slipping out.
Quinn was on the backyard swing, reluctant to enter the house, having remained outside since she arrived.
Nearby, two nannies pushing strollers were playfully engaging with the babies.
