Soon, a large number of police officers and reporters rushed to the scene.
Although there were signs of a struggle at the scene, no other useful clues were left
behind.
Bruce was wearing a clown mask. Hence, he was unidentifiable from the video footage.
Moreover, the clone was currently occupying his identity, which could provide strong
evidence of his absence.
The reporters eagerly released the news of Marlowe’s fall from the building.
“Tragedy at Boulevard Residences. The person who fell from the building is suspected to
be the heir of Yanice Group.”
“Yanice Group’s heir, Marlowe Yanice, fell to his death. Investigation underway.”
“A home invasion at Boulevard Residences resulted in the tragic death of the Yanice
Group’s heir, who fell from the building…”
The news of Marlowe’s fall spread throughout Greyport in less than an hour.
This news shocked the entire Greyport.

been cordoned off by the police, and no one was allowed to approach.
“Marlowe, my son…”
Seeing his son’s tragic death, Marcus couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Though Marlowe was wayward and Marcus was disappointed in him, Marlowe was still his
own flesh and blood. Family ties ran deep.
Now that his son was gone, as a father experiencing the loss of his son, his heartache was

There must be an inside story behind his son’s death.
Regardless of the circumstances, his son was still his own flesh and blood. Though Marcus
had ignored his son most of the time, now that someone had killed his son, it meant they
didn’t regard him with any respect.
In Greyport, the Yanice Group’s financial and actual strength ranked only second to the
Everett Group.
Marcus, also known as Yanice the Strange, had a shady background in his early years.
Only when Greyport was nearing reunification did he gradually clean up his past and step
into a legitimate business.
“…Mr. Derick’s death is likely related to the Everett Group.”
“The Everett Group?” Marcus frowned, and two deep vertical lines appeared between his
eyebrows, adding to his sinister and dreadful demeanor.

Pete didn’t dare to conceal anything and reluctantly revealed all the details to Marcus.
“What?” Marcus was so infuriated by this news that he nearly had a
stroke.
He took several deep breaths, and his personal physician administered antihypertensive
medication to prevent him from dying of anger.
Honestly, his son deserved to die for committing such a crime. Marcus was indeed
troubled by the situation. He wished that he could strangle his son himself.
But… human nature was complicated and bizarre sometimes.
He could beat, scold, and reprimand his son, but others couldn’t.
Marcus knew a bit about the grievances between Bruce and Marlowe. Initially, he believed
that Bruce giving his son some lessons and making him experience hardships could be a

Thus, when Bruce sent his son to a nine-year prison sentence, Marcus only watched coldly,
without seeking revenge or taking his son’s side. Even when his son’s leg was broken,
