Eve raised her brow and joked, "I didn't know Mr. Langford could be so callous."
"You can't survive in this environment without being a little callous at times," Alex smiled mysteriously. "I've saved enough secrets for each of them to continue controlling them, making sure every family member becomes a functional cog in the machine."
Eve was not surprised that Alex was doing this. She might not understand the complicated relationships in his family, but she too, had a sin regarding her mother.
Since both of them were sinners, she had no right to judge his moral compass.
"Though, are you sure about this? I assume those secrets will be more useful in the future when you are in a difficult situation," Eve asked.
"You are in that difficult situation right now, though," Alex replied. 'And you are half of me, anything bad that happens to you will hurt me even more,' he added in his heart.
