I wonder what's keeping him so occupied." Richard's expression hardened. "What exactly are you trying to say?" Hackett tilted his head slightly. "Fairburne Group belonged to Joyce, didn't it? But now she's gone, and all her shares have mysteriously ended up in Alexander's hands. That company is massive-it controls a fortune in mineral resources. It's hard to believe Joyce would just hand it over out of the goodness of her heart." Richard's face darkened.
