The first thing Alex did when he got down from the plane was to give Flynn a call.

“Any updates?” Alex was worried.

Flynn answered, “Heather is fine. Shane has given Stanley a blow, and he seems to have suffered a minor concussion. The doctor said it’s not a big issue, and he should recover in a couple of days.”

“He hit my son? I’ll not let him off!” Alex let out a cold snort and continued asking, “Are you lot still at the hospital?”

Flynn replied, “Yes. We’re done with the body checkup, and he’ll need to be on a drip.”

“Which hospital?” Alex asked.

“Alright. I just got down the flight, and I’ll be there right away,” Alex said and hung up the call.

He was finally able to heave a deep sigh of relief after knowing Heather and Stanley were. safe.

Throughout the two–hour journey, Alex was on pins and needles. All he could think of was the safety of his wife and his son. It was such mental torture.

He was relieved after knowing the two of them were no longer in danger.

He went to the car park to retrieve his car and drove directly to the People’s Hospital.

In just a short while, Alex arrived at the hospital and found the ward. He came in and nodded at Flynn, who then brought his men outside.

“Daddy, you’re finally back! A few bad guys bullied Mommy just now…” Stanley, who was on a drip, said in between sobs upon seeing Alex.

Alex went up to him, squatted down, and gave him a rub on his head. He said in a gentle voice, “Don’t cry anymore, okay? Daddy’s back. No one can bully you and Mommy anymore.”

“That bad

“Ok! I want to be like Ultraman, so I can defeat all the evil monsters,” Stanley said in a steady voice while clenching his fists.

Alex burst out laughing, “My boy will be more powerful than Ultraman,” he said with a smile and clenched his fists too.

“Come with me.”

Suddenly, Heather grabbed Alex by his wrist.

He raised his head and looked at Heather’s deadpan expression.

“Daddy and mommy will go out for a while, okay?” Alex said to Stanley.

“Okay.” Stanley nodded and made a request, “Daddy, I want to eat ice cream.

“Alright, Daddy will buy one for you later,” Alex nodded and walked out of the ward with Heather.

In the corridor, Alex spoke to the teenager beside Flynn, who sold him an ancient painting before, “Please help buy my son an ice cream.”

Just when he was about to give him some money, the teenager responded in excitement, “Okay!” And ran downstairs without taking his money.

Alex put away his wallet and turned to Flynn, “Get someone to find out Shane’s whereabouts.”

He then walked towards the stairs to avoid the crowd, and Heather followed right behind.

“Are you not going to explain yourself?” Heather looked into Alex’s eyes and asked when they stood at a quiet corner.

Heather looked disconcerted as today’s incident had shocked her through and through.

Alex leaned against the handrail and took out a cigarette, “Ask me anything.”

Heather gazed into his eyes and asked, “Where did you go last night?”

“Lumenopolis.”

“What were you doing there?” Heather asked.

“To attend to some matters.”

“What matter is it? You’re my husband. Please don’t lie to me,” Heather gave him a sullen

stare.

Alex puffed at a cigarette, took a glance at Heather, and turned around to look outside.

He turned his back to her and did not utter a word.

In the past, Alex would have told Heather everything if she had asked in such a manner.

But now, he did not feel like telling Heather everything about him.

He was not sure why, but he did not want her to know anything about him. At this point, he also did not want to know anything about her.

“Like what you’ve said, I’m your husband, and you’re my wife. We should not hide anything. from each other. There’s something I want to know. What’s your relationship with our chairman?”

Alex turned around and looked at Heather calmly.
