The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 31 The Chip
The radiology department fell into a stunned silence as every monitor in the room suddenly flashed the same blood-red message:REMOVE THE CHIP... AND ALEX SWAN DIES.The technician stumbled backward in shock. "W-What's happening?"The doctor quickly unplugged one of the computers. The screen went black for a brief second, but then powered back on by itself with the same terrifying message reappearing.Inspector David Cole narrowed his eyes. "They've hacked the hospital."Alex stared at the screen, his expression hardening. "They knew I was here."David immediately turned to one of his officers. "Disconnect the hospital network. Hurry!" The officer rushed out without another word.The doctor looked at Alex with a troubled expression. "I'm sorry, but until we understand what that device is... I can't remove it.""I wasn't planning to," Alex replied calmly, gently touching the spot beneath his left collarbone. "So... my father hid something inside me."David looked at him. "Or
The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 30 The Key Within
The conference room fell into complete silence. No one spoke; no one even seemed to breathe. The masked leader's final words still echoed through the room long after the screen had gone dark: "You aren't searching for the second key... you are the second key."Alex remained frozen, staring at his own reflection on the now-black monitor. "What does that even mean?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.Inspector David Cole folded his arms, deep in thought. "I don't know," he admitted. "But your father said something similar before he was kidnapped."Alex’s head snapped up. "He said he made me the second key."David nodded slowly. "And now the kidnapper is saying the exact same thing."Alex rubbed his temples, trying to make sense of it all. "There has to be something my father never told me."David turned to the forensic team. "I want every medical record we have on Alex Swan."Alex frowned. "You think it's something physical?""It's possible," David replied. "The sec
The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 29 The Son They Stole
Alex tightened his grip around the silver pendant, gazing down at the smiling little boy, no older than eight years old, pictured inside.He turned the pendant over, and four engraved words immediately caught his attention: My son, Ethan.Inspector David Cole stared at the engraving for a long moment before turning to Alex. "So Margaret was raising him."Alex nodded slowly. "She wasn't just protecting him... she became his mother."Just then, a forensic officer approached. "Inspector, we've finished examining the blood."David turned to him. "How much was there?""Enough to indicate that someone was injured," the officer reported, "but not enough to confirm a fatal wound."Alex released a quiet breath of relief. "So Margaret could still be alive.""If we're lucky," David agreed.Before either of them could say another word, another officer hurried over carrying a sealed evidence bag. "Sir, we found this beside the blood."Everyone's eyes shifted to the bag, which contained
The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 28 The Brother He Never Knew
Alex stood motionless in the middle of St. Matthew's Church.The phone call had ended, yet Margaret's words continued to echo in his mind: "He's your brother.""Alex?" Inspector David's voice barely reached him.There was no response."Alex!"Slowly, Alex lifted his head, his face completely drained of color."My father..." he whispered, "...had another son."A heavy silence settled over the church as the officers exchanged confused glances.David stepped forward. "Did she explain?"Alex slowly shook his head. "No... she hung up."His gaze fell to the old photograph in his hand.The little boy couldn't have been more than five years old, smiling innocently at the camera while standing beside Evelyn Swan, Kendall, and Richard Hale.He looked as though he truly belonged with them.Meanwhile, inside an abandoned subway station, the masked leader stared down at Kendall."So..." the leader said with a smirk, "your secret is finally coming out."Kendall remained silent."Di
The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 27 The Woman Who Shouldn't Be Alive
The Parking Lot DepartureSilence hung over the hospital parking lot as Alex stared at the paused surveillance footage on the tablet screen. His heart skipped a beat. The woman in the video was Margaret Cole—his late mother's personal assistant—whom everyone believed had vanished more than twenty years ago. Yet there she was, calmly getting into Victor Grant's car.Inspector David broke the heavy silence. "Our team has been following Victor ever since he left Swan Group," he reported. "He drove straight to the old St. Matthew's Church, where he met Margaret. They talked for less than ten minutes before leaving separately.""I need to know why they met," Alex declared.Before anyone could respond, Alex turned to Javier. She lowered her eyes, unable to hide the hurt in them. "You just found me," she said softly. "And now you're leaving again?"Alex reached for her hand and held it gently. "This time is different," he reassured her. "I'm not choosing work over you. I'm trying to
The Anniversary He Forgot Chapter 26 The Second Key
The WarehouseIn an abandoned factory, the masked leader’s voice echoed chillingly through the silent warehouse as he declared, "The game is finally beginning."Kendall met his gaze without blinking and said firmly, "You'll never find it."A slow smile spread across the leader's face. "I don't need to," he replied. "I only need your son."Kendall shook his head. "You still don't understand. My son doesn't even know what he carries."Leaning closer, the masked leader dropped his voice to a dangerous whisper: "Then I'll make him remember."The Swan Group BoardroomMeanwhile, inside the Swan Group boardroom, the atmosphere remained extremely tense. Alex kept his eyes fixed on Victor Grant, who remained perfectly calm while taking another sip of his coffee."You've brought the police into my company," Victor said casually."You made that necessary," Alex replied coldly.Victor simply smiled and asked, "Have I?"Inspector David stepped forward to clarify the situation: "Mr. Gra
