Chapter 1062 Hide
"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.
