Chapter 445
Xavier's gaze flickered, his eyes burrowing into Walter with an intensity that was hard to ignore.
He found himself questioning the motives behind Walter's actions. Was he being deliberately misled, or was there a deeper, more obscure intention at play?Walter was an enigma, his mystery not only rooted in his ambiguous identity but also in his inexplicable actions.
Xavier had been oblivious to it until now, but he was beginning to suspect that Walter was intentionally stirring the pot, craving chaos. Walter offered a nonchalant smile. "I must be going. The company still requires my attention," he said, his voice echoing in the silence. Without a backward glance, he sauntered off towards the parking lot.He slid into his car, driving to his former residence.
The house stood eerily silent, its emptiness echoing around him as he pushed open the door. A smirk played on his lips as he chuckled softly to himself, his gaze lingering on the vacant room. "This man is so deep in thought," he mused. The man in question was Alexander. Seated in his office, Alexander was engrossed in the surveillance footage that provided a comprehensive view of the villa. Quinn was in the living room, crouched down and feeding the dogs. These two dogs seemed to have no owner and would follow anyone. When Sean had left after installing the surveillance system, the dogs had followed him. It was only after a chase that Quinn had managed to catch the dogs. Kyle entered the room to find Alexander reclining in his chair, his gaze fixed on the computer screen. He knocked thrice on the door before Alexander finally acknowledged his presence. "Alexander, Mr. Collins has resolved the situation on his end.
He wants to know when we can discuss a partnership," Kyle informed him, briefing him on the recent developments. Mr. Collins had publicly debunked the rumors circulating online, attributing his nephew's death to a hotel fire. He had also promised to hold those spreading false information legally accountable. After hearing Kyle's report, Alexander casually manipulated the mouse, zooming in on a particular surveillance video. "You go talk to him," he instructed, his attention still riveted on the screen.

Kyle glanced at the screen, taken aback by the intense surveillance. He couldn't help but wonder what transgression Quinn had committed to warrant such scrutiny.
Choosing not to voice his curiosity, he quietly exited the room after delivering his message.Alexander's phone rang, the caller ID displaying Kaitlyn's name. He frowned, promptly disconnecting the call. Undeterred, Kaitlyn called again. With a sigh of impatience, he answered, "What do you want?" Kaitlyn's irritation was palpable.
"Can't I call if I have nothing to do? Am I your mother? Do you treat me like your mother?""If you have nothing else, hang up.""Wait," Kaitlyn hurriedly said, "Come back tonight.""What's the matter?""You'll know when you come back. Did you hear me? Come back right after work! If you don't come back, I'll go to your house.
"With that, Kaitlyn ended the call, her frustration evident. She tossed her phone onto the sofa, muttering about Alexander's unreasonable behavior. She turned to share her grievances with the Evelyn Reed, only to find an unfamiliar nanny standing behind her.
