Chapter 506 A Well-Framed Identity
“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 had stood by her bed for a long time and kissed her before he left.
He would have contacted her if he wanted to instead of leaving just like that.
“I’ll be arriving at the police station in a short while. Let’s talk later. Keep an eye on Zoah,” Stella hung up the phone and looked out of the window.
A sky-blue sports car drove past her. The driver turned his head and blinked at her before speeding away.
Stella was stunned. It was Jasper!
No, that was Bellamy.
If the ruffian in him was fake, there was no need for him to do that when there was no one else around.
Stella felt fretful. She turned on the recording pen and recorded the important parts with another pen.
Soon, they arrived at the police station.
Stella handed the recording pen to Lynette, “You go, I’ll wait for you in the car.”
“Okay. Are you feeling unwell, Madam?” Lynette inquired anxiously.
Stella shook her head, “I’m just a little tired. I probably slept too little last night.”
“I’ll be right back,” Lynette ran to the police station.
Stella closed her eyes.
“Thump! Thump! Thump!” A series of thumping sounds appeared.
Stella opened her eyes. She glanced at the window. There it was, the face that would turn the world mad, Jasper.
He took off his windbreaker and laid it on her body after opening the car door, “You’ll catch a cold if you sleep in the car.”
Stella held his arm and stared at his face intently, “What are you doing?”
Bellamy reached out to hold Stella’s hand.
She noticed that Bellamy was wearing a handful of rings, all in various shapes. They were very fashionable.
She remembered that Jasper wouldn’t like all these accessories.
An indescribable feeling crept up on her. She felt disorientated as though she had lost her sense of direction in a thick fog. She raised her head and looked at Bellamy, appearing to have a lot to convey to him from the look of her eyes.
A corner of his mouth lifted as he said meaningfully, “It doesn’t matter whether it’s real or fake. All you have to know is that I’ll never hurt you.”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“All I want is for you to be safe,” Stella uttered.
Bellamy let go of her hand and turned around, entering the police station.
Stella sighed.
It felt as though a piece of cake was displayed right there in front of her. She knew that the cake belonged to her, but she also knew that it was not the right time to get it. Not only that, but there was also a protective cover around the cake.
She was anxious, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
“Jasper, what are you up to? What do you want to do? Are you sure that it’s best not to tell me?” Stella muttered to herself.
It was so frustrating.
She couldn’t confront him directly as she was afraid that there might be people watching him.
Lynette came out of the police station and reported to Stella, “Madam, I just met him again, the man who looks just like the Chief. He seems to have a high position in power. I’ve noticed that the director of the police station speaking respectfully to him.”
“Let’s go home. We’ll talk about this after Anthony is done investigating this matter,” Stella didn’t want to think more about it.
She crawled into the bed and took a nap once she got home. The sky had already turned dark when she woke up.
Stella sat up on the bed. This time, her mind was clearer. She recalled how she had met Bellamy earlier. She took her phone and realized that there were several missed calls.
The calls were not picked up because her phone was on silent mode.
She did not remember muting her phone.
She checked the surveillance video.
Jasper, no, Bellamy came to her room.
Her cell phone rang and he declined the calls. He probably muted her phone after that. He then placed the cell phone on the bedside table before sitting by the bed and watching her for a long time.
Stella let out a sigh.
If he was not Jasper, there was no need for him to visit her like this.
Stella exhaled loudly again and called Anthony.
“Madam,” Anthony sounded serious.
“Go ahead,” Stella said in a low voice.
“Bellamy is the grandson of Samuel Chuck. On the surface, he’s a legal arms dealer in M Country. The truth is, he was sent by our country to oversee the investigation work in 12 different countries. Recently, he brought a piece of important news back. It seems like he has been promoted to be the Deputy Secretary of External Affairs,” Anthony reported.
“Samuel’s grandson? Does anyone have any proof of his past?” Stella had her suspicions.
“Witnesses and evidence could be forged. As long as you have the power, you could create a flawless background.”
“What about a paternity test? Shouldn’t we be able to tell whether he’s Samuel’s grandson?”
“He’s an illegitimate child.”
“An illegitimate child? What does that mean?” Stella was puzzled.
“You know Jeremy Shine, right?”
“I do. He is Suzi’s cousin. I was the one who took over the case of Angie’s suicide,” Stella recalled.
“Jeremy had a younger sister who married Samuel’s son. She was Bellamy’s mother. She gave birth to a son out of wedlock when she was young. The child was Bellamy. After Bellamy’s mother died, Samuel brought him home and then sent him out to scout,” Anthony explained.
“What about Bellamy’s biological father then? There must be someone on the side of the biological father, right?” Stella questioned with doubts.
“No one knows who was the biological father, not even Samuel.”
“I suppose that explains why he looks just like Jasper because Jasper resembled his mother. Therefore, Suzi’s cousin’s son looks like Jasper because of this coincidence. I suppose everything does make sense in this way,” Stella paused and pondered.
Jasper was the child of Suzi’s eldest brother, and Bellamy was the son of Suzi’s cousin. This was not contradictory at all.
These were all Anthony could find. Those who wanted to check on Bellamy’s background probably attained the same amount of information too.
It seemed that there was no problem with the status and configuration of this identity.
“Anthony, I remember there is someone who is called General Anderson assigned to the Department of Defense, yes? What’s his position in there?” Stella inquired.
“Oh, he’s the deputy secretary. Travis Lanes is the secretary.”
“Travis is the head secretary, and he’s working under Sean currently. The deputy secretary is General Anderson, whose sister used to be Jeremy’s wife. He could be counted as Steven Milton’s supporter then.
Christian Saltzman is the Secretary of the Finance Department while Jeremy is his deputy secretary. They were both working with Steven.
Their relationship is really complicated. I need detailed information regarding their marriages. The more detailed the information, the better. It’s the only way we could find the internal contradictions,” Stella remarked thoughtfully.
