Under the dim light, Dexter’s expression remained unreadable. Facing the casual scrutiny of this old acquaintance, he showed no reaction. He simply caressed the watch on his wrist and asked, “How long have you been planning this?”

Arnold avoided the question and instead said, “Do you know what went wrong? You were too kind to those you should have taken advantage of, like Wyatt. He could have been a valuable asset, but you personally removed him from the game, thus providing me with such a great opportunity.”

Dexter simply looked at him.

“Just one night,” Arnold added.

He had spent one night planning something that would last for two years. It could indeed be considered a flawless plan.

Dexter clasped his hands together. “What about having Rachel pretend to be Liana?”

When the topic of his proud achievement came up, Arnold’s smile widened. “It didn’t take long either. Summer came to me immediately after finding out that Josie was Liana. It took me an hour to come up with a response. Back then, Josie had already placed immense trust in me. Extracting a strand of hair from her for DNA testing was a simple task. By the way, I heard that after I left Wavery, she put in a lot of effort to expose Rachel.”

Arnold rose leisurely and patted Dexter’s shoulder. “She was kidnapped for a full two days, yet the child is still safe. She must be one lucky woman.”

He intentionally provoked Dexter, and even to this day, the latter could still recall the terrified Josie trembling to the core. She had stood there as if she was about to shatter.
