"Why must you pry the bookshelves open? I could just open it directly. I know the password," Stella Grace walked to the bookshelf and entered the password. After a few clicking sounds, the bookshelves opened. It was empty inside. There was nothing in there. Zoah Davis looked at Stella in suspicion and probed, "Why is there nothing here?" "What do you think was inside?" Stella asked with a smirk on her face. Zoah frowned. Frustrated, he ordered, "All of you are dismissed now." "Dismissed?" Stella stood in front of Zoah. "Do you even have a search warrant when you entered my house? Otherwise, this would be considered trespassing on private property. I feel that it is necessary for me to expose all of this online." "Auntie Wood from your family had said that there is an illegal treasury here. Do you think that you could get away with it just because you've relocated the treasure? You better be careful not to let me discover where it is," Zoah warn
When Stella Grace got up in the morning, her head was still groggy and pieces of memory flashed through her mind. She did not know whether it was a dream or a real incident. Oh, yes. She had surveillance footage. She picked up her cell phone to check the recordings. Jasper Milton had walked out of the library speedily, went into the study, and made his way upstairs. Then, he went into her room, turned on the flashlight, and stood in front of her bed for quite a while. Stella's face flushed. He really did come. There was an unusual sweetness in her heart. Jasper bent down and kissed her. From her forehead to her cheeks, then to her lips. Her face became even redder. She closed her eyes, took a breath, and looked at the screen again. He then exited her room. She replayed the video. He left after kissing her on the lips. Since he was already here, why didn't he talk to her before leaving? Stella replayed the vid
"The casino, yes?" Stella Grace smirked. She believed that the casino would kill Vera for not returning their money. However, there was no way the casino would slander her deliberately. Hence, someone must have been targeting her on purpose. Stella threw a stack of money in front of Sirus, "How can I find the people from the casino? Or, do you have any idea who made Kevin say all this?" "It's Warren. He's in charge of the casino," Sirus answered every question truthfully. Stella wrote down a phone number on a piece of paper. She then stuffed the paper in between the money and handed it to Sirus, "All I can say is that Kevin's life is in danger right now. Tell him to call me if he wants his life saved." She then stood up and said to Lynette Lanes, who was next to her, "Let's head over to the casino." Stella walked first and went to the cardroom. Glancing around, she noticed that there weren't many people in the living room. Those who were
Lynette Lanes immediately stood in front of Stella and shouted at Warren, "Don't we still have laws here? You can't just randomly hit people like that." "My words are the law here. Teach them a lesson!" Warren's men immediately charged forward. Stella Grace was still very composed, "Did you think that I had come here unprepared? The evidence of your murder is in my hands. If you want to die, then just go ahead and lay a finger on us." "Stop," Warren looked at Stella doubtfully. "Who the hell are you? Where did you get the evidence?" "After you were ordered to kill Vera, you blamed the crime on me. Unfortunately, you didn't clean up your mess well. Kevin knows everything, and there's even a recording as evidence," Stella went straight to the point. "What the hell do you want?" Warren yelled with rage. "When you killed Vera, have you ever thought of the power she has behind her?" Stella asked. "She's just an ignorant woman who only knows how to f
"That man, the one who was known as Bellamy Chuck, why does he look just like the Chief?" Lynette Lanes could not seem to wrap her head around this. Stella Grace closed her eyes and had a catnap. After a while of pondering, she made a phone call to Anthony Levis. "Hi, it's me, Stella. I just saw someone at the Englese Clubhouse who looked very similar to Jasper. His name is Bellamy Chuck. Could you please look into him?" Stella said gloomily. "Could it be the Chief? After all, it's safer for the Chief to change his identity," Anthony guessed. "I don't know, but they looked too much alike. I couldn't even tell the difference. It doesn't look like he had gone through cosmetic surgery either. However, his temperament was totally different from Jasper's," Stella frowned. "When we were on missions, we had to dress up often. It's unusual for him to show up like that. If he's the Chief, he would have contacted you, wouldn't he?" Stella recalled how Jasper h
"Alright. By the way, are you coming to the military base again? The examination from before hasn't been carried out yet. On a side note, we've collected 80% of the data on Christian's men. Should I send them to you?" Anthony Levis asked. "Send them to me. I'll take a look at them and get the test sheet ready by tonight. Tell every soldier out there to do the test. Some of them will have to do it twice or thrice," Stella Grace responded. "Okay." Stella hung up the phone and dialed Micheal's number. "Stella, you finally called back. I was nearly frozen solid in the airport," Micheal Zavier complained. "Micheal, have you arrived? Sorry, I was taking a nap. I'll pick you up now," Stella lifted her quilt and got up. "I would have probably passed out multiple times by the time you arrived. I'm now in room 1908 at the Intercontinental Hotel. I even had my dinner already. Are you still coming over?" Micheal told her. "I haven't had dinner yet," Stella
Linda paused and stepped forward. Lynette was afraid that she might hurt Stella, hence she stood in front of Stella. "Oh my dearest Natalie, couldn't you just help me? I want to be a charming woman just like you," Linda said coquettishly. Stella was once envious of Linda, who was both sunny and lively, as though she was bathing in the spring breeze. It was pleasant to have her around. However, Linda wanted to be just like her. "Linda, it's very easy for Frederick to get girls. He's good at flirting and pleasing women. He's rich, handsome, and has a good figure. He is generous to women, that's why women tend to fall for him. However, he can be unfaithful too. I was married to him a long time ago. We were married for three years. It was not that short of a period. He was surrounded by all sorts of women throughout those years. I used to believe that he would notice my existence if I tried hard enough, but he never did. He made out wit
She walked for another half an hour, another three tunnels appeared. She continued with the middle path once again. After another half an hour, again, three different paths! There wasn't much thread left, but she couldn't just give up like this! She continued walking forward. She ran out of thread halfway through the tunnels. She thought of walking till the end this time. If there were other intersection tunnels, she'd have no choice but to turn back. Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her. Stella turned around and saw someone standing right behind her. She got frightened and moved a few steps back. Quickly, she shone her flashlight towards the person's face... it was Jasper! He squinted his eyes, "Have you seen enough? Move the flashlight away, it hurts my eyes." Stella sighed in relief after she realized that it was him. She moved the flashlight aside and felt a little angry, "Do you come home through these tunnels every day?" "Mainly to see
