Joshua Sulliven said in a deep voice, "A business opponent."
He never intended to tell her that Alice Smith didn't die. When Keira Leaf asked him to help prove Alice's innocence, he sent people to investigate and found that Alice was beaten to death in prison. He couldn't bear to see Keira upset, so he found someone to impersonate Alice.
However, during the investigation, he unexpectedly found that the woman who had died in prison was also an impostor, and the real Alice had disappeared from jail.
He wasn't sure if he could find the real Alice, and he didn't want Keira to be upset again. So, he never told her the truth and didn't tell her that Alice might still be alive, letting her believe that Alice died in jail after her and Max Sully's visit. This way, she wouldn't keep worrying.
But he didn't expect that the investigation on Alice would lead to an extremist organization, which made the situation quite complex.
Keira looked at his arm and couldn't help but ask, "Your arm…?"
