Morris placidly said, "We have to avenge Gregory. After we kill Nathan and Penny, the only one left in the Cross family will be their daughter, Queenie. We as distant relatives of the Cross clan will claim guardianship for Queenie. That way, the Cross Group will be ours."

Upon hearing his brother's plot, Reuben excitedly replied, "What a great plan! It's simple and effective."

Morris instructed, "I'll leave this to you. But remember, it's best for you to look for an outsider to kill Nathan and Penny. If the public found out that we are the ones who killed the Cross couple, it'll be difficult for us to secure Queenie's guardianship."
