Logan's eyes glazed over as the matter became more mystifying than ever.
No one understood Jared and Rhett's relationship more than he did. Although the two were biological brothers, they
had never gotten along well and hated each other's guts.
If Zeke indeed killed Rhett, Jared should be overjoyed instead of wanting to avenge his brother. Even if Jared wished
to take revenge for Rhett, why was there a need to target Linton Group? This is an entirely futile strategy.
Logan regarded Jared with a doubtful gaze.
When he noticed Jared avoiding meeting his eyes, Logan grew certain something fishy was happening.
Unfortunately, Logan had no choice but to hold on to his belief since he could not back down at that point.
“Judging by the expressions on your faces, I suppose you two do not believe me. Will you two trust me if I produce
evidence that I did not kill Rhett?”
Jared nodded. “Yes. This incident arose because of Rhett. If you can prove that you are not the murderer, not only
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwill we acknowledge your innocence, but we will also apologize to you.”
I've already killed Rhett and gotten rid of his body anyway. There's no way Zeke can produce any solid evidence.
Zeke uttered, “All right. I'll prove my innocence then. Not only am I going to prove that I'm not the murderer, but I
will also identify the real culprit.”
Jared snickered inwardly. I am the real culprit! I have already destroyed all the evidence and witnesses. Regardless
of Zeke's capability, he will not be able to bring out any evidence.
Zeke snapped his fingers. “Come on out.”
Come on out?
Jared was puzzled.
Who is Zeke asking to come out? Is that person a witness? But I've already hired an assassin to target those in the
know.
Under everyone's watchful gazes, an overweight man exited Zeke's office.
Everybody was shocked to their cores when they saw that man's face clearly.
He was none other than Rhett Mitxel!
As far as everyone knew, Rhett was dead, so how was he revived?
The one with the most agitated response at the scene was none other than Jared. Terror filled his chest and
overwhelmed him at that moment.
After all, he had personally ended Rhett's life and ensured the latter was no longer showing signs of being alive
before ordering his subordinates to get rid of Rhett's body.
However, at that instant, Rhett appeared healthy and strong, without a single scratch on him.
What the hell? Am I seeing a ghost?
Logan stared at Rhett and said with a trembling voice, “Rhett, my son, you're still alive! Haha! Thank the Gods! I
can't believe you're still alive!”
Rhett replied, “Dad, I'm terribly sorry for making you worried all this while.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe walked toward his father as he spoke, planning to give Logan a big hug.
Logan quickly added, “Wait a moment. How are you still alive? Your brother already sent your ashes home to be
buried. Let me ask you. When your brother succeeded as the head of the family, what did I secretly tell you?”
Rhett answered, “You told me if my brother is incapable and unable to lead the Mitxel family to greater glory, I can
replace him as the head of the family.”
That's right! That's right!
Tears streamed down Logan's face. “You are indeed my son. Only the two of us know about this secret. But if you
are still alive, how do you explain the ashes we buried back home?”
“We will have to question my dear brother on that to clarify this matter.”
Everyone shifted their gazes onto Jared.
Jared was lost in a daze. He could not fathom how Rhett was alive and standing before him in good health,
regardless of how hard his mind raced.
Could it be that I merely dreamed of murdering Rhett that day, and everything is just a self-deception?
Logan called out Jared's name twice before the latter finally regained his senses.
