"I heard you've been hanging out with Amara.

Just as he opened his mouth to reply, a soft thud sounded from another room.

Alex's expression turned sharp.

"What was that noise?" "Oh, that... A dog! I brought ha dog with a hint of a temper a few days ago.

Just let it be," Wilbert said, his voice shaky.

Alex studied him intently, then resumed the conversation in a stern tone.

"Look, messing with Amara means you're playing with fire.

As he spoke, he watched Wilbert's face closely, his suspicion growing.

"Remember Stevie? He crossed Matthew and look what happened.

Craig Group went under, and Stevie... I heard they cut off his hands and feet.

If you mess with Matthew's mother, and who knows what'll happen.

Alex's words were calm, but they struck fear into Wilbert, who began to sweat, feeling a cold dread.

He was in this for the money, not to risk his life.

Matthew was a nthat spelled danger.

"AL... Alex," Wilbert said softly, his voice laced with caution.

"I need to be straight with you.

Amara was the one who cto me.

I had no clue she's Matthew's mother.

If I knew, I wouldn't have even thought about it.

He tried to maintain eye contact with Alex's intense stare but found himself struggling to continue.

"Why haven't you ended things yet? Are you asking for trouble?" Alex's voice was filled with anger.

Wilbert's voice shook as he tried to explain, "I was clueless.

Amara was the one who cto me!" Alex just shook his head, disappointment clear on his face.

"You're finished.

Wilbert opened his mouth to say more, but a loud, dull thud interrupted him

The sound was deep and seemed to be coming from another room.

"It's... Amara in there," Wilbert confessed, his voice shaking with fear Alex's expression turned to one of shock.

He quickly moved towards the room.
