Arnold sneered, “Dexter, Mark is practically your father-in-law. He risked his life to come here, yet you continue to deceive him. Is that really appropriate?”

Dexter turned to his side, seemingly puzzled. “What did I supposedly lie about?”

“Josie didn’t die, and you used this fact to lure Mark. If Josie knew, she would probably hate you even more, wouldn’t she?” Arnold turned off the loudspeaker so he was audible only to a few people around him.

Dexter stared at him. “Do you dare to tell him and everyone, then? Do you have the courage? Once you do, you’ll lose all your leverage. Is it worth it?”

He gradually began to laugh. “Is it worth it to expose someone as notorious as me?”

Arnold looked into his eyes, filled with a potent mix of hatred and an inevitable sense of resignation. Impatient, Mark interrupted, “Enough with the chatter. I’m giving you two options, Arnold. You live, or you die. Your choice, one word.”
