Chapter 1056

They were Alexander's trusted subordinates, which meant that they were vigilant and reliable in a fight. Alexander and the children would be safe in their hands.

"Everyone else will split up to try and find Elise's whereabouts. Alexander's ill so we have to take charge now!" Danny commanded the crowd with his booming, authoritative voice.

The Griffith men were all tough as nails.

"Leave the Hellens to me." Narissa volunteered to take on the most challenging task.

"I'll go with Narissa."

"I don't need you."

Jamie thought that it was only natural for him and Narissa to head out together, but as soon as he had spoken, she rejected the idea. He couldn't help but suspect that something was up when he recalled her unusual behavior this morning and saw the look in her eyes now.

Narissa didn't bother to look at Jamie. She kept her eyes forward and said, "What I mean is I can handle things myself. The Hellens don't scare me."

Jamie had a feeling that Narissa was giving him the cold shoulder, but he couldn't figure out why. He looked upset and aggrieved.

"You should go together." Danny had noticed that things were odd between the two, so he wanted to give them some alone time together. "It's better to have someone to back you up."

"Whatever." Narissa walked off.

Danny eyed Jamie. Hurry up and go after her.

Jamie nodded and rushed off. "Wait for me, Narissa."

Danny shook his head and turned back to Zephyr. "I'll leave Alexander in your care, Doc."

"Don't worry. I'll make sure he stays alive, if not for anything else, then at least for the fact that he's pretty generous," Zephyr joked to lighten the mood.

Danny smiled bitterly and helped to carry Alexander to the car.

They had just reached the foot of the mountain when Alexander woke up.
