Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

"She's rushing to earn money to regain custody of her son, so I'm still hesitant to transfer her. She's quite capable at work, but I figured since it's challenging for her to balance work and taking care of her child, it might be better to have her get close to Dillon.

"Dillon hasn't been back long. Besides donating some money to the welfare home and occasionally wandering around Rivera, she hasn't done much else, suggesting she just wants to make amends for her past mistakes. However, she doesn't intend to admit to what happened back then. I just had a thought."

Stella raised her eyes, "Trevor, do you think the fire that Dillon and the others encountered back then was accidental or deliberate?"

Trevor countered, 'Do you think it was deliberate too?"

Stella said, "It just strikes me as odd. Back then, there were four people, including the anesthetist. Two died, one fled abroad and can't return, and one nearly died. In the end, she survived under her fiance's name. Don't you find this death rate a bit excessive? Among them, the oldest isn't even sixty now. No matter how I look at it, it doesn't seem like an accident."

Trevor remained silent for a moment and then said slowly, "If they were killed to hide a secret, then that secret can only be..."

Trevor lifted his gaze. "Murder."

Stella's expression darkened, and she remained silent for a long time.

This seemed to be the most reasonable explanation.

Continuing to ponder, Trevor asked, "Do you think Dillon knows that the two accomplices died back then?"

Stella shook her head. "I doubt she knows. When you went abroad to meet Venice Taylor, didn't you say that after they got the money, they were afraid of getting caught, so they agreed not to contact each other anymore?

Those who went abroad did so, those who changed jobs found new ones, and even their contact information changed. Venice doesn't know where Dillon is or that the other two accomplices died, so Dillon probably doesn’t know either.

"Dillon was an uncommon graduate of that era. She's very clever. If she knew that the two accomplices had died, I don't believe she wouldn't suspect foul play. Once she starts to suspect, she'll inevitably question the mysterious fire at their house. If I were her, with my husband and unborn child leaving in such a tragic way, and ending up in such a miserable state myself, I would definitely seek revenge on that person. But she didn't. She's in a state now where she seems to be awaiting death. Donating money to the welfare home is likely just for psychological redemption." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

This notion aligned with Trevor’s thoughts.

That was why, even though he found Dillon, he didn't dare to act rashly. Moreover, Dillon was now using Paul’s identity. If the contact failed, she might seek embassy asylum, which would make it even more challenging.

Trevor said, "You call first and see if your friend is willing to help. I can double the commission on her original salary." "Okay."

Stella quickly contacted Shea.

Shea had been worried about her child lately. Her parents were old, and her younger sister had just given birth. Both her parents were taking care of her younger sister, so she had to hire a nanny. But no one was at home to monitor the nanny, which concerned her. Stella's call came just in time. After understanding the situation, she readily agreed.

Upon hearing about doubling her salary, Shea said, "Stella, tell your brother it's unnecessary. Just stick to the previous arrangement. When I was initially employed, you helped me a lot. It's always because of my child that I keep delaying work. Finally, you are asking me to do something. If I take more of your money, how am I able to face you in the future?"

Stella reassured her warmly, "Shea, what's done is done. I needed to find an assistant back then, and Felicity introduced you. I hired you because you did a good job. Now, I'm hiring you to help with something else.

Whatever my brother decides to pay you, he thinks you're worth it.

Otherwise, you can negotiate with my brother yourself; he's right beside me.

Shea felt a bit intimidated. Trevor's influence at the company was quite significant, and she felt uncomfortable about it. Therefore, she gave in.

Just as Stella had finished contacting Shea, Trevor's phone rang; Jaylene was calling.
