Chapter 380: She is Morse

Terence's hands were fidgety hearing Alan's rightful words in his indifferent tone which carried a hint of mockery.

The least Terence wanted anybody to know about Emily's actual identity was by the Cooper and Morgan family members. He was resolute to hide everything about Emily. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

He grabbed the intercom to call his secretary, but the phone was dead. He frowned and dialed from his mobile but the next movement, his mobile was on the ground and crashed into many pieces.

Terence's breath twitched, and he balled his fist, glaring at Alan who sat back like a ruler of the place and he was his subordinate who should follow his order. "How dare you?.."

Alan smirked and snapped his fingers. A man in black gear dragged a man and threw him on the floor. Terence ran over to his son, whose hands were tied and they had taped his mouth. Even though his dear son wasn't hurt anywhere from the looks, he couldn't see him in that state either.

His first reaction was to remove the tape and asked him worriedly, "Patrick, are you alright? Why are you in this state?" Terrence did not comprehend what had happened before they reached his office and just cared about his son's well being.

"Dad... Dad, they forced a drink down my throat. They have the antidote to it. Unless you speak the truth, they will not give the antidote."

Terrence clenched his fists and growled, "What the freaking hell do you think of yourself?"

Alan's lopsided smile left his lips and checked the time on his wristwatch, which pointed out to Patrick that they were running out of time. "Dad, Dad... tell them what you are hiding? Am I important to you or your stupid secret you are hiding from all?"

Alan's first takedown was on Patrick, He did not know why his father was against Cooper's family, who had done nothing to them as much as he knew. Seeing the beauty with brains, he wanted to show his charms to Aria, but she embarrassed him instead of getting her attention on him.

So when Alan asked him to speak everything out, he had told everything and he just wanted Aria on his bed. Then he thought Alan would leave, but Alan ordered his man to bring a glass of water. He dropped some white capsule and stirred in front of him before forcing it down his throat.

He knew his father treasures him more than anything so he wanted his father to tell the truth and get the antidote of the poisonous drink he consumed.

Terrence didn't budge. He didn't want to disclose anything about Emily. He wasn't ready to lose and cursed himself for not killing Aria quickly. "Tell what? I know nothing. What are you even talking about?... I will call the cops."

Alan tossed Patrick's mobile at him, "Go ahead."

Patrick snapped at his father, "Dad, do you think he will give antidote for the poison if you call the cops? What is more important to you than me? I might even die before cops reach here. I can feel stomach-churning. Dad, help me out."

Patrick was on the verge of tears thinking he would die and requested Alan leaving his ego and pride, "President Morgan, I really know nothing. Please let me go, I will never think about sleeping with your wife again..."

Alan raised his brows, "Heh? She is your first cousin, your younger sister."

"What?" Patrick's eyes were wide open in confusion. He just knew he had one cousin, Erica Morse who ran away from home when her mother tried to put her under security to keep her safety from his father.

Before his mind could analyze everything, he blurted out, "Is that a reason Dad wants to kill her?"

Terrence was late to shut his mouth. That was the only reason he never told him the purpose behind his attempts to kill Aria. Whatever he said was also an oblique acceptance of why Erica ran away from country A and he was failing to find her and that delayed his plan against Aria.

"What are you spewing? You don't have any cousin named 'Aria'."

Patrick didn't accept his words, "Now I understand why Erica and Aria Cooper's features are nearly similar but this Erica doesn't take care of herself."

Alan's bodyguard controlled himself from smacking his head for talking nonsense, but he stood there as if nothing could change his emotions.

Terrence glanced at Alan and spluttered as he smacked his head, "You rascal, what are you bluffing..."

He hadn't even finished, Patrick felt nauseous and seemed like throwing up. That scared him even more and cried out at his father, "Dad, speak out. I am dying here."

Terrence kneeled to look at him and shuddered as he stammered, "I... I have nothing to say... President Morgan, what have you fed my son? You better give the antidote, else you will pay the price for it."

Alan simpered but didn't talk. His bodyguard spoke, "Let's see your son die first."

Patrick lost his cool thinking he was dying, "Dad, if you will not tell me, I will tell aunty about all your cheating and investments outside of the company money. When I die, I will haunt you every day..."

Seeing his father wordless, he begged, "Dad, save me, I am your only son and you don't have anybody else. Dad, I want to live, Dad, you can't do this to me."

'Buh'

Terrance and Patrick thought the latter threw up blood but nothing came out his mouth but they heard the bodyguard say, "President Morgan, ten minutes more."

Alan didn't react and Patrick urged his father, "Dad, I will listen to you, I will do as you say, Dad, how can you let me die? Dad, please save me. Dad, you can't have any more children, you are too old for it. You have only me. Dad Please Dad..."

He proceeded to whine while Terrance knew he was in the dead end. Even though he didn't know where Isla Turner was, he was sure they caught her and her life will be miserable. The man who assisted him was in prison, losing his mind every day.

'What will happen to me if I tell the truth?'

He stood up and said determinedly to save his son, who was the only one he was doing everything for. He wanted to kill those girls so that his dumb son could inherit complete Morse family assets. "Emily is not Parker. She is Morse."
