Beyond the Divorce



When my father heard Clark's question, he looked at him mockingly. "Yes, we do. It's a secret that would fulfill all your desires overnight, and it's something you couldn't even dream of!"

A glimmer of hope shone in my father's eyes like a halo of imminent achievement.

But Cane just smiled silently at him.

"Tell me, damn it! What happened?" Jarvis tried to break free from the hands that were restraining him.

"Your son was stabbed to death by

Jarvis was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Cane while Clark sat on the ground. He seemed petrified.

Atlas glanced at Cane, who immediately signaled to his men to take the father and son away.

Once they had all left the room, I took a long breath and looked at Cane. "Is what you said true?"
