Chapter 1087 You Are Dead Meat
Alexander immediately understood what Elise meant. For some inexplicable reason, Owen wouldn't harm her and the child in her womb.
If that was the case, then Alexander had no reservations.
Just as he was about to say more, Owen snatched the cell phone from his hand. "Confirmation is all that's needed. You don't have to talk any further."
Alexander gave him a disdainful glance, his eyes full of resentment and anger.
Owen seemed not to have noticed. He sat in the chair behind Alexander, crossing his legs and propping his forehead with one hand while swirling his wine glass with the other. He stared thoughtfully at the red wine swaying inside. "Have you heard that Alexander died? Do you believe it?"
I'm standing right in front of you. What do you think?
"Of course, I don't believe it. Mr. Griffith is lucky and I don't think anyone can kill him," Alexander sneered sarcastically.
Owen was not angry when he heard that. He sat up straight and pointed at Alexander. "I was thinking the same thing. How about this? You can confirm it in person."
He paused for a moment and then turned to look outside the door. "Bring him in!"
As soon as he spoke, a group of people brought in a man and forced him to kneel.
Although the man's eyes were covered and his mouth was taped shut, Alexander recognized him from his clothing and facial features. He was Matthew, or more accurately, it should be Danny posing as him.
He came so quickly. I must say he's quite efficient.
One of the men stepped forward and tore off the tape. Danny immediately began to rave, "Who are you? Let me go! I'll have you know that I killed Alexander Griffith! If you offend me, you will die!"
Owen lowered his eyes, then lazily looked at Alexander. "I've brought the killer to you. Don't you have any questions?"
Alexander knew that Owen was using him to confirm the authenticity of the news.
"Is Mr. Griffith really dead?" he asked, cooperating with Owen.
"Johnny?" Danny heard the familiar voice and knew Alexander was playing along. As such, he laid it on thicker as he announced, "Yes! Alexander is dead. I was the one who killed him! You've been helping Alexander oppress me all these years, but just look at us now! He died in my hands. I am the last man standing! Hahaha!"
"Impossible!" Alexander raised his objections. "Mr. Griffith has always been careful and farsighted, and with Raymond and the others protecting him, you couldn't have gotten close to him!"
Danny scoffed and smirked arrogantly. "Everyone in Smith Co. except you and Alexander is all brawn and no brains. They don't even know they have a mole, so it isn't hard to take care of them."
"It's impossible. Smith Co. will never betray Mr. Griffith!"
"That's why I found an outsider. You guys can give it your all for Alexander, but he is here to protect his family. Speaking of which, he has left no evidence. He hasn't been discovered until now and even calls you his brothers. The accomplice was right beside Alexander, but everyone searched for him all over the place. It's hilarious!"
"I'll kill you!"
Alexander pretended to be provoked and he walked over to beat Danny up.
Soon, Danny was lying on the ground with a swollen face, but Alexander showed no signs of stopping.
Danny was rather speechless. Everyone with a different identity always reaches the pinnacle of their lives, but here I am, getting beaten up by Jamie and chased by the police. Even my brother is hitting me now. How miserable! I will never do this again, even if it means killing me!
Owen didn't bring 'Matthew' here to be a punching bag for Johnny. As such, he spoke up to stop them. "That's enough."
However, Alexander didn't listen and he started to hit harder.
Owen became impatient and took a stun gun from his subordinate's pocket. Then, he walked over and tasered Alexander on his back, causing him to tremble and then fall, successfully pacifying him.
Owen walked over, pulled down Danny's eye covering, and said arrogantly, "I heard you've been causing trouble for Alexander these years."
