"You've met with Jacob Parker?" That night, Alex Ogden pays his grandfather a visit at Oxeye Castle after finding out that he had a meeting with the Parkers.
"No. I've met with John Parker. Jacob Parker met with me." Alex narrowed his eyes to his grandfather who is making things sound complicated.
"And what did you talk about with them?"
"I told them what they wanted to know and what they are supposed to know." Jack Ogden leaned back in his seat. "In a month's time, the Parkers will leave your wife to save their family's fortune."
My wife. Alex savors the words in his mind. Claiming her might sound simple but it is not. It is just too complicated. "I don't care about what your plan is, but just make sure that no harm will be inflicted on her. If you hurt even a single strand of her hair, forget about your dreams of taking over the Society." Alex's words were cold and threatening.
