After a while, Walter raised his hand, gesturing for the person behind him to lower the gun, and smiled. "Mr.
Kennedy, good to see you well?"
With a penetrating gaze, Landon scrutinized him, asking, "Why?"
The question had been well posed, though only Walter had understood its depth.
Why had he betrayed him? Why had he assisted Alexander?
Walter hesitated for a moment, his smile undiminished as he replied slowly, "There's no why. People live their
whole lives for just a few things. I didn't want to, but what he offered was just too much." Landon also smiled,
but it was a cold smile. "That's not what you said when you cto me."
Walter said, "People change."
Landon asked, "So this time, are you here to find someone?"
"Isn't it obvious, Mr. Kennedy? You, too, are to blame. Didn't you know that the little mute girl is easily frightened,
yet you still brought her to such a place? You must have scared her, right?" Landon's mouth curled in a mocking
arc. "What's your relationship with that mute girl?"
"What's my relationship with her? don't you know?" Walter smiled harmlessly. "She is my respected sister-in-law."
Landon didn't believe a single punctuation mark of what he said.
Landon said, "She's not with me."
Walter asked, "Is that so? Would it be okay if we search for her then?"
Alistair stepped forward and said, "Who do you think you are? Do you know whose territory this is? You say you
want to search, but you may not have that much authority!"

Alistair chuckled at his words. "It seems you are also here for the first time. Even | don't know, kid, | advise you
to be smart and leave on your own. This is not where you should be; otherwise, don't blme for being
impolite." Walter's smile had a hint of sarcasm. "Is that so? Then what if | don't leave?"
With that said, the atmosphere tensed up again, with both sides raising their weapons.

"Stop!"
Hetastian also arrived with his men; looking at the tense atmosphere inside the cabin, he said in a deep voice,
"There are many people on the ship. Everyone, sit down and talk. Don't make a big fuss, or it won't end well for
anyone." Alistair said, "Hetastian, you arrived just in time. These people clooking for someone without any
evidence. Isn't this causing trouble? | suggest we throw them into the sea to feed the fish!"
"So, you're not planning on handing her over?" Alexander spoke up. He stepped out from the crowd, his gaze
cold and unyielding. Even under the dim light, nothing seemed amiss about him. Hetastian warned, "Alistair, if
you really caught someone, hand them over; don't cause trouble for the Boss."
Alistair said impatiently, "I said the person is not here. Hetastian, do you believe him or me?"
The atmosphere suddenly bectense. Hetastian naturally didn't believe Alistair. If the person really wasn't
here, how could they have cknocking on the door? But he and Alistair were partners after all, and he
wouldn't favor Alexander. Otherwise, word might spread, and he'd be seen as abandoning his own for an
outsider. But if they started fighting, it would be chaos.
As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005sis your destination for the complete story. Share the
joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! Hetastian was now cursing
in his mind. What kind of person did this idiot catch to make so many people confront each other here?
Alexander took a few steps forward and stood in front of Landon.
Seeing him being so arrogant, Alistair had already gripped the gun in his pocket.
Landon reached out and grabbed his wrist, signaling him not to act rashly.
"What do you want?" Alexander spoke first.
