?Chapter 1168:


    It was as if the ground had dropped out beneath him. His voice cracked as he spoke, barely more than a whisper. “Noah… Noah has lost his memory?” It didn’t make sense.


    How could someone like Noah—powerful, sharp, untouchable—suffer something so devastating?


    If this truth ever saw the light of day, the entire business world of Jazmah would explode.


    Alex watched the shock ripple across Malcolm’s face, and a quiet, satisfied smile yed on his lips. “Yes,” he said smoothly. “Noah’s mind is a nk te. And Ms. Hudson? Her health is failing. Right now, it’s that greenhorn ine managing most of Wall Group’s operations.”


    Malcolm swiftly folded the report and tucked it away like a dangerous secret.


    His eyes, once clouded with confusion, now gleamed with something sharper. With Noah lost in the haze of amnesia and Sadie battling fragile health, control of Wall Group had quietly fallen into the hands of ine—an outsider. On the surface, thepany appeared stable. But beneath that polished exterior, turbulence brewed.


    For Malcolm, this could be the moment he’d been waiting for.


    Still, he wore the mask of concern, brow furrowed, voice hesitant. “But… that still won’t do,” he said, feigning reluctance. “Wall Group has Averi—the rightful heir. That boy carries the Wall bloodline. As long as he’s around, no one else holds the rightful im to power.”


    Averi might have been young, but rumors swirled about his sharp mind, his inherited brilliance—a spark of Noah’s cunning already igniting within him.


    And he wasn’t just any child—he was Sadie’s son.


    As long as she drew breath, Sadie would guard him like a lioness guarding her cub.


    Alex’s smile deepened, curling with intrigue and something unspoken. “Mr. Pierce, you’re mistaken. Averi is not the only heir to the Wall legacy.”


    The moment he heard those words, Malcolm shot up from his seat, no longer able to stay calm. “Mr. Howe, what exactly are you trying to imply?” Was it possible Noah had secretly fathered another child somewhere else? Such a revtion was even more shocking than Noah losing his memory!

    Calmly, Alex reached forward and took a leisurely sip of his drink, maintaining an air of indifferent elegance. “Noah has been living under the identity of Patrick from Burgess Group for a long while. Surely you’ve heard that Patrick’s wife, Hailey Burgess, had be pregnant, haven’t you, Mr. Pierce?”


    Malcolm’s eyes widened in sudden shock.


    Hailey!


    Of course, he recognized that name immediately. Ever since Patrick appeared seemingly from nowhere, Hailey had remained consistently by his side.


    A daring thought swiftly urred to Malcolm.


    “Just yesterday,” Alex continued casually, setting down his ss, yet his tone held the devastating impact of a grenade. “Ms. Burgess safely delivered a healthy son.”


    A surge of excitement rushed through Malcolm, making his vision briefly brighten in pure delight.
