As Richard got closer to him, Alex removed the shade he was wearing. "I didn't expect you were going to show up at her burial. She loved you, Alex, and she even died for you." Richard said, gently telling his men to leave them alone. "Walk with me." Richard looked at Alex. Alex's heart thud gently; he knew it was either Richard was going to kill him or he believed he didn't have a handgun after the death of his daughter. As they walked, there was a huge silence. "You know I didn't plan any of this, right?" Alex looked at Richard, breaking the silence. "Then who did?" Richard looked at Alex. "I am not sure, Mr. Dickson. Frankly speaking, I have a lot of enemies who would love to see me six feet under the ground." Alex replied, walking further from Richard. It was now dawning on him that Richard didn't want to have him killed. Rather, he wanted to know how his daughter had been killed. "What did you see on the day of the gunshot?" Richard asked, trying to maintain the gap between him

The news of Xander fleeing Rochester spread through the city. Alex was relieved to know that his enemy had run away, giving him more reason to know he was behind the scandal and everything that had been going on. Getting to Richard Dickson's apartment. He was welcomed with a warm embrace. "Have you heard the news?" Alex asked, taking off his jacket. "Yes, I did. I can't keep wondering why Xavier would run, leaving all his business behind. I am beginning to suspect he is behind the death of my daughter." Richard said he was hitting his hands against each other. "I am going to crush him the next time I lay my eyes on him." Richard said it with anger. "I think we need to slow down. I know you are hurt and all that, but Xavier is a man who always has a backup plan for everything he does. I am sure he won't flee the country without a backup plan." The atmosphere was tense. "Where do you think he is going to go?" Richard looked at Alex's face. "I don't know; he might be anywhere. He migh

Lawrence and Victor had gathered all the shipment and handed it over to the FBI. This included all the narcotic drugs and the illegal gold mine Xavier had managed to run. Henry and some of Xavier's men were arrested. The city of Rochester bubbled with news of Xavier Richmond's news. Many people who had been victimised by Xavier were all happy to hear about his arrest warrant, and many were ready to cooperate with the FBI to have them arrested. Lawrence was finally happy that he could help bring Xavier to justice for killing his friend. He and Alex sat under the shade as they looked at themselves. "Alex, I and your father had this connection, and he was like the brother I never had. Like I told you before, I had to swear to protect you, and now my job is done. I believe the FBI will do their job to have Xavier captured and brought to justice. He would atone for all his crimes and will be out behind bars." "I am very happy and grateful to you, Mr. Lawrence. All of this wouldn't have

The autopsy for Rubby's death was handed over to Agent Miller, and it was confirmed he had been poisoned. Many of Xavier's men were interrogated, but none of them knew how Rubby had been killed. The chief of police, Steve Johnson, who was in charge of the case, walked in and looked at Agent Miller. "I am glad you were finally able to get closure about the death of Rubby. I heard the commissioner of police is also in on this." Steve said he was taking his seat before Agent Miller. "Yes, sir, we are currently looking for him, and I know we are going to have him apprehended." Agent Miller assured the chief of police The man looked at Agent Miller and smiled. "You are indeed competent. You deserve an award after all of this is done. What about the underground lord, Richard Dickson? Any leads on him too?" Miller looked at Steve. "Yes, we noticed he had been trying to get back at Xavier for the death of his only daughter, and he also had a hand in the death of Anthony Bailey." "Anthony

Alex walked with Andrew into the living room, and on television, it was broadcast live with a lot of FBI in front of the orphanage home. "Isn't that where you grew up?" Andrew stared back at Alex, who was as surprised as Andrew was. "What is Xavier getting at by taking the orphanage hostage? Alex tried to call some of the orphanage's main lines, but it wasn't going through. "I guess they cut off all the communication lines." Andrew looked at him. Judith and the rest of the staff all came out to look at the news being displayed. All of them knew how passionate Alex was about where he grew up, and the thought of Xavier endangering his single life was scary. Alex rubbed his hand gently over his hair as he failed to call Agent Miller's number. "Have you seen the news?" "What news, Alex? You know I am a very busy man. Jacob Wills has just been killed by Xavier, and we are at the station right now. "What do you mean, killed? He has just taken the whole orphanage hostage." Alex replied
