‘Will?’
Alex suddenly felt his mind go numb as a worrisome thought popped into his head. His father’s name was William Rockefeller, and the pearl had his father’s blood in it. But she was calling him Will.
‘Did she mistake me for my father?’
From her tone of voice, their relationship didn’t seem to be just friends either.
‘Could she be a mistress his father had outside of the family?’
‘Even Mom had no idea?’
He started to feel sorry for his mother, Brittany, because Susan looked like a young, intelligent beauty despite being near death’s door moments ago.
Susan noticed that Alex stood there without speaking so she blinked and looked closer. “Oh, you… You’re not.. Sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”
After a pause, she asked. “Who are you?”
Her voice was unique throaty but soft, completely different from Angela Seay’s voice, which made Alex feel ill. Susan’s voice was pleasing and seductive to his ears.

Alex thought. ‘Damn, Mom has a strong competitor!’
‘If Dad hadn’t died, maybe he would have left the family for this woman!’
“My name is Alex Rockefeller!” He answered in a frosty tone.
“Rockefeller…” Susan’s expression changed again.
“This Will guy you were talking about, is his name William Rockefeller?” He demanded.
Susan gasped, a bewildered expression on her face.
Alex could see as clear as day that Susan Hunter and his father had a complicated relationship, or she would not have looked like this. But that’s all in the past now. His father has been dead for a year now. Even if he had mistresses, it wouldn’t make a difference anymore.
‘Thinking back, didn’t I sleep with Daya even after I was with Dorothy?’
‘Maybe Susan had some touching story with Dad.’
At that thought, the disgust in his soul vanished.
“That… Was given to you by William, right?” asked Alex as he pointed at the pearl.
Susan immediately wrapped her hand around the pearl, as if she was protecting it with her life. “You… Who are you exactly?”
“My name is Alex Rockefeller, so who do you think I am?” asked Alex sarcastically.
Susan struggled to sit up, though she felt better than she had in ages and her head wasn’t muddled or unconscious. Her heart didn’t feel pricks of pain either.
“Are you… William’s younger brother?”
Alex was stunned for a second as William’s face appeared in his memories.
