Malcolm‘s words made Joshua perk up a little. “Are you sure the person who instructed you to do this is
right among us?” “I‘m positive!” Malcolm nodded feverishly. “It‘s true! Otherwise, how would I have
known…what time Jim would be leaving the hospital yesterday? “It‘s… It‘s because that woman was
working with me from the inside, and that‘s how I was able to sneak into the hospital as soon as Jim left
with his son.
“That woman…told me that she‘d help me create the perfect opportunity for me to carry out my task.
Think about it: how would I have known when you‘d leave if someone hadn‘t been helping me?”
Jim furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this. He glanced dubiously at Malcolm, then at Joshua. “Does
this mean that there‘s someone working with him?”
Joshua curled his lips into a smile. “Of course there is.” He turned to glance impassively at Malcolm.
“However, this information you‘ve given isn‘t sufficient for me to release you.”
He shifted into a more comfortable position in his chair and smirked. “Malcolm, you and I have been
enemies for about a year now, and perhaps even longer.
“The truth is, you and I have been competing with each other from the moment you took Luna and my
three children seven years ago. “Therefore, I‘m sure you‘re well aware of my capabilities.”
He fixed his cold, penetrating stare on Malcolm‘s face. “Did you think I couldn‘t have figured that out
myself? Did you think I was so stupid?”
A glimmer of malice flashed through his eyes. “And since I figured that out myself …did you think I wasn‘t
capable of finding out who this person is?”
Every word that came out of Joshua‘s mouth was cold and sharp. Malcolm lifted his head to stare at
Joshua in shock, and for a split second, he was speechless. Joshua was right. He had known that
Joshua would have figured this out himself, and he would be able to find out who this mystery person
was eventually.
However…
This was the only card he could play to stop Joshua and Jim from torturing him even further.
Even though he had something else up his sleeve…it was not time to give it up! Joshua immediately
caught sight of the hesitation in Malcolm‘s eyes. He narrowed his eyes. “I guess Mr. Quinn doesn‘t have
anything else to say, Ba7+ }]F} since this is the case…”
He lifted his head to shoot Jim a meaningful glance.
Jim understood immediately, and he curled his hands into fists once more, smirking. “Malcolm Quinn, did
you think I‘d let you go even after all the useless information you gave us?” This was the man who had
almost killed Bonnie! Killing him would be doing the whole world a favor!
“If I don‘t kill you right here, I‘m not Jim Landry!” With that, he raised his fists and brought them down
onto Malcolm‘s face once more.
Whoomph! Malcolm crumpled onto the ground.
