Police cars and ambnces gathered in front of the old residential area. The residents were anxiously watching the events unfold as they heard about the violent break-in.


    Ralph was worried and ordered his subordinates to bring the assassin back to the police station first. Meanwhile, he apanied the ambnce to the hospital to ensuren and Rachel were taken care of. Af the same time, he also called Be and Justin to inform them of the situation.


    In the ambnce, Rachel, who was in shock, wore an oxygen mask. The purplish hue had faded, leaving her with a distressingly pale face.


    "Ms. Mead... You must stay alive... Nothing can happen to you."


    "Her vital signs are currently stable, so don''t worry too much." Ralph reassured him gently.


    It was evident thatn''s deep concern for the girl went beyond her role as a witness against Charles.


    "How did you appear here out of nowhere?"n asked, trying to calm his chaotic thoughts.


    "Be thought it was a big deal to have Rachel testify. Since she''s still a minor, it''s only fair to let her guardian know. So I''m here to not just check on their situation but also speak with Rachel''s mother. After all, Be believes that in her mother''s eyes, the police are far more trustworthy than she is."


    Ralph couldn''t shake off the weight of the consequences of histe arrival. A solemn expression clouded his usuallyposed demeanor. "I didn''t expect to encounter this kind of situation. It seems that some people are bing impatient."


    People said that couples would grow to look alike as time passed. Has anyone heard of couples who thought alike?


    "Oh, right, this is for you."


    Seeingn in so much agony but still thinking of others, Ralph was moved. He took the knife and gripped it firmly in his hand. "I totally forgot... Thanks,n. I really appreciate it."


    "I remember that Ms. Thompson also has one."


    "Yes, Be and I have the same knife. It was a gift from Asher."


    Ralph''s childhood memories were triggered, and a fond smile appeared in his eyes. "Asher was like the ultimate knife expert to us. He loved ying with different knives and weapons, even more than Drew did. Instead of ying typical games with us like other older siblings, he would experiment with cleverly crafted knives along with me and Be. Collecting knives was his favorite hobby, and we had over a thousand of them at home."


    In the future, if Justin marries into the family, he should always remember to avoid arguing about small things and never speak out of turn. It would be better to stay cautious. Otherwise, he might not even realize how his actions could lead to trouble.N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    "Our eldest brother noticed that Be and I both had a talent for knives, so he not only taught us everything he knew but also gave us each a butterfly knife."
