NovelStartChapter 946 Elijah was puzzled about how Elliot would verify the authenticity of the remains, but he felt a sense of relief anyway. He knew Elliot's capabilities well -Elliot was always composed and insightful, never one to boast or engage in battles unprepared.
"What do you need us to do?" Elijah inquired.
Elliot delegated tasks, "Elijah, you've had quite a bit of interaction with Gideon, so I'm sure you can find a way to discreetly install a few hidden cameras in his house. Focus on the living room and make sure it's done before 10 PM." "Evan, you and White just stay htoday, rest up, and don't go wandering around. You two have an important task tonight!" As the morning neared 10 o'clock, Elliot had Emmett entertain Baby while he called Elysia into the study.

Elysia was taken aback, "What does this have to do with Gideon, that scoundrel?" Elliot clarified, "Elijah knows a guy who's been dealing with Gideon, involving Grandma's remains. This guy has agreed to help us reclaim Grandma's ashes from Gideon." This man, orchestrated by Elliot and posing as 'Alpha', was directly engaging with Gideon.
Upon hearing about Elizabeth's remains, Elysia's expression turned serious, "Gideon has Grandma's ashes?" "Yes, he's hidden them to blackmail Dad," Elliot confirmed.
Elysia's brows furrowed in concern. Blackmail her husband? That wouldn't do at all! "What's the plan? How can I help?" Elysia quickly asked.
Elliot guided Elysia to his computer, "Our man will handle it. You just need to watch Gideon and look for any signs of deceit during their interaction." On the computer screen, a sleek black luxury car pulled up at Gideon's private villa.
Gideon's right-hand man, eager to please, rushed to open the car door, "Welcome, Mr. Thorne, right?" The man from the car, without nodding or shaking his head, stepped out with an air of aloofness, "Are Elizabeth's remains here?" The aide quickly replied, "They're usually not kept here, but Mr. Gideon had them brought over especially for your visit." Without another word, the man walked into the villa.
"Is this the guy you mentioned?" Elysia asked.
"Yes, he's our inside man," Elliot confirmed.

Gideon, aiming to show his respect for 'Alpha', had returned from then hospital specifically to meet this financial angel. Seeing his aide bring in a man of distinguished presence, Gideon naturally assumed him to be Alpha.
He extended his hand enthusiastically, "Mr. Thorne, it's an honor to finally meet you. I've heard so much about you!"
'Alpha' ignored the gesture, coolly took a seat, removed his sunglasses, and directly addressed Gideon, "Where are Elizabeth's remains?"
Gideon's ego took a hit, but he managed to suppress his irritation. He awkwardly withdrew his hand, took a sip of tea to ease the tension, and then said, "Mr Thome, you understand the importance of these remains to me. I'm showing them to you as a gesture of my sincerity towards our cooperation. For years, I've never shown them to anyone else. I hope Mr. Thorne can also show genuine intent in our partnership, without any ulterior motives, otherwise..." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
