Alex froze and spoke through gritted teeth, “Don’t you even dare think about it—I will never give you my son! I won’t let you take away my son and leave me without a successor!”

He thought that Cooper was trying to steal his son so that he would be left without a successor.

However, Cooper had already seen through everything.

Alex is unable to protect his son because someone around him wants that young boy dead!

He didn’t care about Alex’s family matters, but he definitely wanted to protect Albert.

After Cooper finished, he said coldly without waiting for Alex’s response, “It’s late at night, so please leave now.”

Sophia chipped in and said, “The child was taken away by Derek. You should go and look for him instead. Goodbye, officers!”

The policemen felt embarrassed as they quickly dragged Alex’s family out.

Meanwhile, Alex was still wailing and Sandra was still cursing.

There was no peace at The Imperial that night.

 

Sophia had dumped everything on Derek and temporarily held off Alex’s lineage. However, she and Cooper both knew that if Albert was really dead, they wouldn’t run away from their responsibilities.

Although it was late at night, all the lights were still on at Villa No. 8; Derek, Michael, Linus and Quinton had not returned from the hospital.

 

Meanwhile, Sean and Stanley stayed behind to wait for news.

In the middle of the night, Carmen suddenly came downstairs and sat down quietly next to Sophia, looking at her pitifully.

“What’s wrong, darling? Why aren’t you sleeping?” Sophia hugged her and whispered.

Carmen started to blame herself. “Mommy, is it because of the fight I had with Al that caused him to bleed?”

Albert’s sudden episode today had frightened the children to tears.

Sophia quickly reassured her. “It’s not your fault. Albert was sick—that’s why he was bleeding earlier. Now, he’s gone to the hospital.”

Carmen curled up in Sophia’s arms as she looked around sluggishly before she asked, “Mommy, is Albert going to die?”

Sophia didn’t answer and had no idea how to.
