Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 633 It Doesn’t Matter If It’s The Most Dangerous Of Places



“The Director of the Department of Education was murdered.”

“That’s expected. After all, he knows too much. Quinn wouldn’t let him go to court like that,” Bellamy shared the same sentiments with Sean.

“He died in a special way. I might be able to find some clues if I go over,” Stella pondered the clues that Sean had just explained.

“You don’t have to do this. There are professionals there. Sean is just using you as a tool. He wants a scapegoat, and you are the perfect candidate,” Bellamy snorted as he spoke.

“Sean wants to test his luck, while Quinn and Christian are in the same boat. Sean staying as the President is the safest choice for us. Even if I have to be a scapegoat, I will have to take that responsibility to ensure our future,” Stella made a decision.

Bellamy stared at Stella. He had gotten to know her better after having spent all this time with her.

Truth be told, he had already known her for at least five years ever since he dreamed of her that night and he already knew her personality well. Otherwise, he would not have pretended to be Jasper out of fear that she would commit suicide.

Bellamy smiled and said, “Leave the Department of Environment and the Department of Health to me. Once I collect all the evidence, I will give the network company the necessary instructions.

“Okay, I’ll head out first then. I won’t be back early today,” Stella said gently as she stood up.

Bellamy hugged her as he knew that she was about to leave. Even though she would only be away from him for a few hours, he refused to part with her. “I will wait for you here. Take care of yourself. Your health and safety are the most important thing to me.”

Stella nodded in agreement. “I will be careful. Also, keep the news of Trenton’s death to yourself.”

Bellamy seemed to have thought of something and his expression darkened. He eventually nodded and decided to keep that thought to himself.

Stella went to Trenton’s house with Lynette and Elvis.

Trenton lived in a villa which was located on top of a hill.

The hill was secluded and quiet as it was artificially made. The house was surrounded by green clusters.

Benjamin had already arrived before Stella. He had already entered the bedroom to investigate the scene.

Sean and Eli stayed in the living room. Sergeant Lincon and Quinn were also there, and they were both talking to Mrs. Zane.

The rest of the team waited outside.

As soon as Stella stepped into the house, her eyes instantly met with Eli’s.

Eli felt awkward and she quickly looked away.

Stella heaved a sigh of disappointment.

She didn’t have many friends, and there were even fewer people who got along well with her. Eli was one of her friends and a person whom she owed deeply.

She walked towards Sean and nodded, “I’ll go in first.”

Sean nodded.

Mrs. Zane lowered her head and did not notice Stella for a brief moment. She wouldn’t have recognized Stella even if she had seen her.

She knew of the person named Stella, but Stella had lived in seclusion and she rarely appeared in public. She had appeared in meetings before, but only managers had ever seen her. Their other madams rarely had a chance to see her.

Stella asked Lynette and Elvis to stay outside as she walked into the bedroom.

“Don’t simply move around,” Benjamin did not even raise his head as he said those words bluntly to Stella.

Stella’s lips twitched in anger. It seemed that his temper was still the same. “How am I supposed to investigate the scene if I don’t move around? We are supposed to work together.”

Benjamin instantly recognized Stella’s voice. He looked up at her in surprise. “Why are you here? You’re quite brave, aren’t you?”

Stella knelt beside him and put on her gloves. “I would even dare go to the most dangerous of places, let alone here. My arrival is the fairest in the eyes of others. Have you found anything?”

“From my primary judgment, he seems to have died from suffocation. The deceased was taking a bath. The murderer went in and pressed his head inside the bathtub, which eventually led to his death. Because of this, the deceased was unable to make a sound, so he could not cry for help or notify Mrs. Zane, who was busy in the kitchen,” Benjamin spoke as he deduced the situation.

“So Trenton was taking a bath, while Mrs. Zane was in the kitchen,” Stella narrowed her eyes at that thought.

“They had crabs for dinner. Trenton accidentally spilled some vinegar on his body while they were having dinner. It smelled bad, so he decided to take a bath,” Benjamin explained the doubts he initially had.

“The news about Trenton’s mistresses and corruption were exposed, yet he still had the mood for crabs. Mrs. Zane and Trenton surely are so open-minded,” Stella said with disdain.

“Are you implying that Mrs. Zane could be the murderer?” Benjamin asked in curiosity.

“What I am saying is that they must have thought that this matter could be resolved, so they were relaxed. They must have something up their sleeve which could help them overcome their difficulties, so the murderer was infuriated, which led to the murderer’s killing,” Stella said coldly.

“You’re talking about the note, right? The secret would disappear… That murderer seems quite arrogant.”

“This killer is very flamboyant. He decapitated him. How sharp could his knife be? How strong was he? I am afraid that not many people have that strength. This is not something that any ordinary people could do,” Stella said as she looked at the wound.

Stella stood up and swept across the bathroom. She would never let any corner out of her sight.

Benjamin stood behind her and asked, “Did you find anything?”

“The victim had just changed his clothes. Tied from the back, gouged out his eyes. These were all done deliberately,” Stella explained.

“How did you know that?” Benjamin narrowed his eyes and asked.

“Trenton’s wounds are all neat and tidy, which is not something a mentally-ill person would do,” Stella began.

“A mentally-ill patient will enjoy the process as he cuts the face. They would cut it slowly, and the force of impact will be balanced. They may gradually add more strength, and the extent of damage to his muscles will form wrinkles. However, the cut on the face of Trenton is from deep to shallow. There is almost no damage to his muscles. The wound is very flat. He is deliberately imitating the previous sensational cases just to confuse us,” Stella added.

A strange light flashed in Benjamin’s eyes. He was good at reasoning but he still lost to Stella. Stella was once a doctor, so he definitely was not as good as her in such aspects.

“I solved the secret of his chamber. What about you?” Benjamin asked.

Stella looked up to the ceiling of the bathroom and spoke, “The attic seemed untouched for a long time, so it should be covered with dust. If the person had come through from the ceiling, we should be able to notice it at once.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

The murderer must have hidden up there after having killed his target. When Mrs. Zane finished washing the dishes, she entered the room and called for her husband. After she got no replies, she thought of opening the door. When she did, she saw such a scene. She broke down on the spot. The killer must’ve escaped while she made the phone call,” Stella deduced.

Benjamin nodded and said, “I’ve checked on it. There are signs that someone was there too.”

“Do you think that they would have the surveillance footage from here?” Stella asked.

“When the President heard about this, he immediately confiscated the surveillance video footage of the security guards. He even confiscated all the recordings and broken computers and hard drives too,” Benjamin replied.

Stella revealed a smile.

Their recordings were destroyed too, but those from the God’s Eyes were still intact. This residential area was the area that Stella had paid special attention to. Whether it was satellites or security surveillance, she had it all. It wasn’t difficult to find the murderer, so what was the secret that Trenton knew?
