Chapter 915
Hank was a bit of a rascal who’d been kicking around Rosenberg for decades, and he’d got a pretty complicated
web of social connections. He was not someone that average Joe could easily mess with.
He’d got a few hooligans on his side, who loved to throw their weight around thanks to his influence. They didn’t
have a soft spot for anyone, which was why Hank sent them after the Stewart family.
Hank had them hell bent on wrecking the Stewart family, and if they could cause some casualties, even better. But
what he didn’t see coming was these usually ruthless thugs getting their butts kicked by another guy.
Not only did they end up with swollen faces, but they were beaten so bad they couldn’t even lift their heads.
This time, without Ayden having to say a thing, Hank spilled the beans, “Since you found me through Clair, you must

Marcus coldly looked at Hank, and didn’t say anything, but Hank was already too scared to say a word, “I’m telling
the truth, this is the only way I thought to deal with you guys. Because I thought you were pushovers, and a few
guys messing around would be enough”
Hank wasn’t actually lying with that one. He took Clair’s word for it, believing Cornelia’s husband was just some
regular guy, so he didn’t bother being all that
cautious
But who knew, the world was a big place and there was always someone better out there.
In Rosenberg, one could say he had his ear to the ground, any big news or big shots coming to town, he’d definitely
catch wind of it.
But this time, he didn’t hear a thing, which only proved this Jeremy guy was no ordinary joe.
Hank had already racked his brain for anyone from the Artis family, but he couldn’t think of anyone famous named
Artis for the life of him.
This guy didn’t seem like just anybody, but he’d never heard the name before. Hank started to suspect Cornelia
might have been playing it safe and not giving him the guy’s real name
So just who was this guy?
Marcus looked down at Hank, whose eyes kept darting away, obviously not telling the truth, “Clair said over the
phone, that if it weren’t for you, she might still be sharing her identity with that repulsive woman. What does that
mean?”
Jeremy had no idea that this Clair wasn’t the real Clair.
A wave of relief washed over Hank, as long as they didn’t know this Clair wasn’t the real Clair, things weren’t all that
bad. As for the answer to that question, Hank had been ready with it for years. Without missing a beat, he knew

what to say, “Clair has a split personality, and she always feels like there’s someone else living in her body.”
“Is that so?” Marcus slowly circled Hank, then said, “If you’re lying, the consequences might be more than you can
handle”
Even when threatening him, Marcus‘ tone remained calm, and his imposing aura was suffocating.
Hank swallowed hard, “She used to see a shrink. If you look into it, you should be able to find out. I’m not lying
about this.”
Marcus had listened to that recording over and over, and had even suspected that this Clair wasn’t the real Clair,
but someone had impersonated her.
But that seemed unlikely.
