Chapter 637 The Crime
“You should be more careful from now on. Quinn told Mrs. Zane that you have an illegitimate son. Although he might not have the evidence, he might still have other tricks up his sleeve. I don’t want Eli to be in danger. We have already got her parents killed. We can’t allow her to get hurt again,” Stella said seriously.
Sean said, “Alright.”
“The only people who know about you and Eli’s relationship are me, Frederick, and Christian. If Frederick wanted to, he would have exposed you early on. But Christian, he is a ticking time bomb,” Stella was worried.
“He is in hiding right now. He won’t come to me unless he has absolutely no choice. As of now, Quinn is the real threat. He is too ambitious now. Losing Trenton is not a big deal to him. Unlike Christian, who has since left the court.”
Stella understood what he meant. He did not want Christian to be involved for the time being. She was a little annoyed, but she noticed that they were nearing the hospital, so she said, “Let’s put it aside for now. I have a subordinate who is injured. Her condition is very serious. We will talk about it later.”
She hung up the phone. Elvis looked at Stella with concern, “Is the President unwilling to deal with Christian?”
“He says that he wants to deal with Quinn first.”
“Our people have followed Quinn for a long time, and they have also investigated him for a long time. There seems to be no problem on his side at all. He won’t be easy to deal with,” Elvis was depressed.
Stella remained silent. She was thinking about the secret that had something to do with Jasper.
Her phone rang.
She looked at the unfamiliar caller ID. She did not want to answer it, but when she thought about it, it might be from Bellamy. She then answered the phone.
“Are you alright? I sent someone to protect you, and they said that they saw an explosion in your car. Are you on your way to the hospital now?” Bellamy asked with worry.
When she heard that his voice had not become hoarse, she felt a sense of warmth in her heart. “I’m fine. Something happened to Lynette. We are almost at the hospital.”
He said, “Do not get out of the car, I will send someone to fetch you.”
“Don’t come over. It is too dangerous. Also, Mrs. Zane and Trenton are dead because they know Quinn’s secret, which seems to have something to do with you. What do you think it could be?” Stella was clueless, so she could only ask him.
Bellamy paused for a moment. He closed his eyes and asked in reply, “What could be the secret that involves me?”
“I don’t know. Don’t come over. I will wait here until Lynette is sent to the emergency room. Anthony will send someone to pick me up. Don’t worry.”
“How could I not worry?” Bellamy interrupted her. “You shouldn’t go to the hospital. There are too many people there. It is too messy, and it’s not convenient for Dark Shadow to lurk around. You will be in danger. Many people want to kill you, so stay in the car and don’t move. Although you were once a doctor, you wouldn’t be able to help Lynette with her operation. Listen to me, please.”
Before Stella could say anything, he had already hung up the phone.
Stella sighed. Jasper was stubborn. She was no match for him, even though he was already very tolerant of her.
However, she also felt a sense of sweetness in her heart.
She knew that he would risk his life to get here because he was worried about her.
This was probably the only reason why she had the courage to continue fighting amid the sadness and exhaustion.
She had to fight, for her and Jasper’s future.
They soon arrived at the hospital.
Doctors and nurses were already waiting at the door.
“Take good care of Lynette. Don’t worry about me. The Dark Shadow are all around,” Stella told Elvis.
“But the forensic experts will be coming, Madam. You will not be safe in the car alone,” Elvis was worried.
“Don’t forget that our car is modified. I will start the safety mode later. Don’t worry, I know what to do. Hurry up and send her in. Don’t delay her treatment,” Stella urged.
Elvis looked at Stella, and then at the unconscious Lynette. “Alright, Madam, I will send her in first. I will keep you updated.”
“Good.”
Elvis picked Lynette up, put her on the stretcher, and pushed her into the elevator.
Stella closed the door and leaned against the chair to take a nap.
She did not know why she had felt so tired today. There was also a constant uneasiness in her heart and she could not tell why she was feeling that way.
…
Bellamy quickly entered the secret passage and looked ahead with sharp eyes. He looked as though he would kill everything in front of him.
He had guessed earlier that Quinn was the one who killed Trenton.
He had also guessed that Quinn would choose to frame someone else for his murder. His next target would most likely be Sean.
Sean was one of his opponents. Hence, to weaken Sean’s powers would be a good thing for him.
Therefore, Bellamy did not tell Stella about his speculation.
However, he did not expect Quinn to be the one behind Jasper’s assassination. That must’ve been the secret that Trenton knew about.
Jasper was his twin brother, so he must take revenge. Moreover, Quinn even dared hurt the woman he loved most. This was something that he could not forgive.
“Is everything ready?” Bellamy dialed a phone number hurriedly and asked coldly.
“Almost.”
“Send everything to my email.” Bellamy quickly hung up the phone and accelerated. He wanted to see Stella urgently because he was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
…
Someone knocked on the window just as Stella was about to fall asleep.From NôvelDrama.Org.
She glanced at the man’s eyes. He looked gentle and capable. He wore a white medical uniform and carried a box in his hand. He must be the person that Sean had called.
She pressed a button. A protective glass was raised from her chair to protect her inside. She then pressed the remote and opened the door.
She had spent tens of millions of dollars on modifying the car and it cost way more than the car itself.
The forensic expert was amazed. After a moment of shock, he entered and started his work.
Stella leaned back in her chair and continued to rest with her eyes closed.
Her cell phone rang again. She sighed. It was Sean. She answered it and said weakly, “Hello.”
“Stella, there is one more thing that I will have to trouble you with,” Sean’s tone was very serious.
“What is it?”
“One of my men is dead. I have confirmed that he had something to do with the death of Eli’s mother last time. He was the one who sent people to assassinate her. I planned to finish him off in a mission, but I did not expect him to die just like that. I suspect that there is someone else behind the scenes,” Sean said seriously.
Stella sat up in shock. “Who is it?”
“I don’t know. The report from Invisibles said that he committed suicide. Everyone saw him jump down from the roof, and no one pushed him. I thought that he committed suicide out of fear of punishment, but his grandson is just one month old. Even if he had committed suicide out of fear of punishment, he would have left some last words, right?
I checked the surveillance footage just now. The monitor showed that he went to the top of the building alone, and he jumped down after that. He had always been inside his room before that. During that entire period, only his soldiers entered the room,” Sean thought it was strange.
“What about the communication records? Who was in contact with him before the accident?”
“I’ve already checked it too. There was not a single record from him ever since I started investigating the Invisibles up until his death. So, he did not contact anyone.”
