The Pinnacle of Life

Chapter 1378

Grant nodded. “Alright. Since Elder Crain has given such an order, I have no objections. I just wanted to bring Alex back because I didn’t want to cause a commotion here. These people are pretty triggered, so I don’t want them to do anything rash. It’ll just be a lot more trouble.”
Phoebe and the others huffed sarcastically.
‘If you were really worried about that, you wouldn’t have smashed their hall into ruins.‘
“Let’s just evacuate for now!”
With the order, many were chased out of the Zimmers’ home and were forced to keep their mouths shut. Whatever that had happened here was never to be told to the public. If anyone did so, they would be guilty of treason.
Department Six, the Divine Constabulary, and the old Hidden Dragons were all significant organizations within America. If anyone were to find out that they were fighting each other, it would become a national dispute, especially if this incident was known internationally.
This was something they simply couldn‘t allow. Hence, everyone who exited was forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement under the supervision of the military.

If any information on this incident were to be leaked, they would be heavily interrogated. They might even lose their wealth or life over this. In the end, the trial was just a formality to close the case.
Although Zachary’s laptop was broken, the video files were still saved within.
Moreover, Easton’s goons, Gordolf, and the officers who arrested him had all testified to prove Alex’s innocence. With this much evidence at hand, Quentin and Snow’s accusations were all for naught.
Half an hour later, the trial ended peacefully. Draco boarded the helicopter and left the Zimmers’ home as well.
Alex, Aunt Rockefeller, the Larsens, Zachary, and Geronimo headed out too.
The inspector from Alaska arrested Quentin as Snow escorted Grant on their way out.
Apart from them and the main Zimmer family, no one should know how the trial went. Everything was to be kept top secret at all costs.

Just as they exited the gates, Geronimo couldn’t help but grab Alex’s hand, scanning him from top to bottom. He then asked hurriedly, “Where’s your mother? My daughter, I mean. Where is she?”
Alex stared at him intently. Without warning, he punched his chest harshly.
Geronimo couldn’t have expected that, and he fell a couple of steps backward. His expression darkened as he vomited a mouthful of blood.
Everyone was shocked to see this, especially Zachary. Zachary felt his heart sinking to the bottom. ”Alex! What the hell? He’s your grandfather, for crying out loud!” he yelled angrily.
