"Mr. Jefferson, can we ask why did you decide to turn back and selflessly take a bullet for someone else even after you have retreated to a safe distance?" The host asked curiously with a smile.

Alex just smiled modestly and said, "Well, I wasn't thinking too much about it either. My only thought was that I could probably take a bullet and still survive, but if she took a bullet, it wouldn't be the same story. So there's your selfless reason."

The host sighed in admiration. "And there you have it, folks. With his selfless behavior that drove him to sacrifice himself for others, our People's Hero, Mr. Jefferson is truly a role model for all of us." Applause rang out from beneath the stage again as the audience found themselves truly impressed by both Alex's courage and selfless principles.

At the same time, Kate let out a large sigh of relief as she watched the broadcast. She had been worried that Alex would say something damning to the both of them like 'Because I love her' or something similar.

And yet, despite her best efforts, the scene kept replaying itself in her mind. Alex had already ducked away safely and yet, he still turned back to take a bullet for her. The truth made her heart race. Would she ever replace another man who would take a bullet for her without any hesitation, just as Alex did?

Wryly, Kate did not think that anyone like that would ever appear again.

Dylan was watching the broadcast as well at this time, but his heart was far from being full of admiration for Alex. Instead, a sense of disdain was growing stronger.

It was not time for a meal yet, so the shop was woefully empty. To alleviate their boredom, he and his girlfriend, Anna, watched the television.

"He's a goddamned liar and a two-faced scum," Dylan said furiously. "Look at him, standing up there and pretending to be oh-so noble!"

Just by looking at Alex was enough to remind Dylan of the time Alex had defiled his girlfriend, sending his emotions into a sudden violent churn.

"It's a shame that God didn't take a closer look," Anna said just as dismissively. "Why is it that a trash like him can be declared a hero and even given ten million? It's insulting."

At this moment, Anna's phone lit up with a text where she had left it on the table. The message read: Hey babe, it's been awhile since we last met. I could use some of that sweet, sweet booty. Come over tonight."

The name of the sender was 'Lix' Seeing the contents of the text as well as the name, Dylan shuddered thoroughly.

Lix... Felix? Dylan wondered. Could Felix be the one texting Anna?

With trembling hands, Dylan took Anna's phone and unlocked it. He had seen Anna unlock her phone before; close enough to discover her password. Her phone unlocked itself easily.

As Dylan scrolled through Anna's chat history with 'Lix', the harsh truth immediately became obvious. He trembled with fury, almost coughing blood from the unpleasant shock.

Turning around from where she was, Anna abruptly realized Dylan was rifling through her phone and was instantly furious.

"What the hell are you doing?" She shouted, snatching her phone back from Dylan.

"You cheating whore!" Dylan roared, backhanding her across the face.

Screaming, Anna held her face in shock as she stared at Dylan.

"You b*tch!" Dylan raged. "That night in the bar... You were f*cking Felix, weren't you? And then you went and pinned the blame on my best brother! I'll kill you!"

Blinded by his anger, Dylan sent Anna crashing onto the ground with a kick. To tell the truth, he had already developed an immunity to cheating. He was only angry at Anna and Felix's betrayal and deception of him and how it had caused him to turn against his best friend of so many years.

Now, thinking back on how he had renounced his friendship with Alex and how Alex had walked away, feeling hurt and betrayed, Dylan could feel himself shudder all over with the regret of it all.

'Not only was Dylan an idiot, but he was also the worst kind of man there was. He had doubted his own

best friend; his brother by blood. He was an animal!

Knowing that her act had been exposed, Anna felt a wild fear settling deep into her bones in the face of a raging Dylan.
