Chapter 119 Coward
- Alex short vacation with juliet ended faster than he wanted, and even though he didn't want to, they both had to go to work... Patrick was waiting for Alex to get to work, and before Alex could settle into his office, he was there already to share the information he had with Alex...
- "Sir, there is something you need to know," Patrick said, not being able to keep all that he found out to himself anymore... he had found out a bit too much, and if whoever had a hand in Glenda's death was watching from the shadows, that meant he might be in danger too... at least Alex should know in case anything should happen to him.... "Did you find out something" Alex asked curious to know what Patrick had found out and Patrick didn't even know where to begin, he sighed deeply and ran his hand through his hair as he thought about to start telling Alex the information he had... "I hired a private investigator a while ago to find out more about Glenda, and he managed to find her brother..." Patrick started, he then went on to tell Alex about everything Mr Reynolds had told him and now Glenda had met The late Mr Graham... Alex just stood there listening to everything Patrick was saying without interrupting, and when Patrick was finally done, he needed a moment to process all the information..."So my father was the one who asked to form a fake identity," Alex said, and Patrick nodded... "Yes, sir, I'm sure Glenda didn't mean any harm. she was just doing as she was instructed to do, but I think she found out what she shouldn't have, and that might have led to what happened to her. but it's only just my speculations. I'm not certain, sir... I'm still looking into it for more information. " Alex got up from behind his desk and walked to his glass... his eyes were on the busy afternoon streets of Everton... his mind reeling... "So my mother is a suspect," He said, and Patrick couldn't say yes to that. he just couldn't...the Michelle he knew could be overbearing but he was certain she couldn't hurt a fly but sadly everything was slowly pointing towards her, making everything even more complicated...Patrick was trying his best to rule her out as a suspect but each turn he took, Michelle seemed to keep popping up... "So she died because my father and mother might have been responsible, but nothing is certain yet. Everything is just speculations, like a reasonable doubt." Alex summarised everything, and Patrick nodded... "Yes sir." Alex turned to look at his trusted ally and asked, "What do you think? Do you think my mother could be capable of such a thing?"
- Patrick was silent for a few seconds before he responded "no sir... I don't think your mother is capable of such a thing... what about you sir, do you think your mother is?"
