Chapter 251: SHOCKING NEWS!
Their car finally arrived at the Quantum Capital building. Bella thanked Geoffrey and asked him to return home as she didn’t need him. She planned to stay at her office until Tristan arrived to pick her up later.
After reaching the nineteenth floor, she went straight to her office and started working. She had enough time before Stefan’s arrival.
Bella immediately became immersed in the pile of files on the table. She needed to read several documents containing the business proposals of several companies they wanted to invest in.
However, thirty minutes later, a text notification distracted her. She lazily glanced at her cell phone and read Leo’s name.
‘Huh!? Why is he texting!?’
Bella’s mind was suddenly preoccupied with horrible scenarios. She imagined that something might have happened to Leo, who was supposed to have arrived at the airport to pick up Stefan.
Without delay, she set aside the paper she had been reading and opened her text messages to check the text messages.
[Leo] Check out this SHOCKING NEWS!
[Leo] Link to article.
[Leo] (Shocked Emoji)
Bella turned on her laptop and opened the link that Leo sent her. Just reading the news title shocked her.
[Laura Kiels’s Manager Found Dead In A Car Accident!]
“Laura’s manager? Robert…” Bella muttered and started to read the article.
A few minutes later, her hands clenched into tight fists.
“Why did he suddenly die!?”
Countless questions now appeared in her mind upon reading about Robert’s sudden death.
“Why did this man meet his death when we needed him to expose Laura Kiels in court!?”
Bella and her team already knew that Robert was only a messenger to pay for all the buzzers. Still, Laura Kiels must be the mastermind behind it.
She heard the police were about to call Robert a few days ahead to be questioned as a witness.
But now, he’s dead. How can they catch and expose Laura Kiels as the mastermind behind Stellar Entertainment’s smearing campaign?
Instantly, Bella began to assume that Laura’s manager’s death was not just a simple accident. Someone must have caused his death, right!?
“Damn it! Laura Kiels! How dare you erase our witness by killing him?” Bella was getting increasingly annoyed with this situation.
This is why she needs Stefan in this city. She has many enemies for her to monitor.
Just like this case, Bella believes this is not a simple death; this is not a mere car accident, but someone killed Robert.
For several seconds, Bella sat in her place while reading another article.
Later,
Bella decided to call Sam.
Not long after, Sam appeared. She asked him to sit for a moment before she joined him.
Sitting opposite Sam, she asked, “What about the Sentinel Network progress?”
Sam explained in detail their progress over the last few days.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
“Several members of the Sentinel Network who are not on special assignments have been directed to come to this country to help and teach new members; everything is under control…”
Bella listened carefully without interrupting him.
“We have about twenty-five senior members here and fifty new members. The senior members are paired with two new members and spread across the country to collect information about our company. But, as you requested, we placed more people in Nova City to investigate Celebes Energy. And also in this city…”
Sam continued, “So, yeah, we are rapidly growing here. I believe we will operate like other branches, faster than I thought. Maybe around next month…”
“You’ve worked hard, Sam. I really appreciate it.” Bella sincerely praised him. This fast progress was enough for their company, Quantum Capital, to grow faster.
“Boss, don’t say that. This is part of my job…” Sam chuckled, hearing her praise.
Sam liked doing this kind of job because he could still use his abilities when he was active in the military and help his retired brother-in-arms from his special force division to work again.
Bella smiled, hearing his humble words. She immediately asked him why he called her now.
“Sam, did you read the news?”
“Not yet. I’ve been busy briefing with my team since this morning. Is there any news about Stellar Entertainment again?” Sam asked worriedly.
The bad news about the company lately was definitely not in their favor, and he knew it was stressing out Bella.
“No. But this is about Laura Kiels’ manager, Robert. You know him, right?”
“Yes, of course, I know him. You asked me to follow him. But Boss… I’m really sorry. We tried to locate him in the last two days but failed to find him.” Sam feels ashamed that he can’t do his job properly.
Bella took a deep breath before telling Sam that Robert was found dead in a car accident this morning. His car went into a ravine, and it was indicated he was driving drunk.
“What?” Sam was shocked. “How come he died like that? Why do I feel strange to hear that!?” Sam didn’t expect the person they were looking for now to be dead. “Robert’s death seems suspicious…”
Bella could only laugh bitterly when she heard Sam’s words. They have similar thoughts. She also suspects Robert’s death was not a mere car accident.
“That’s why I called you here, Sam. I want you to deploy your members to conduct investigations in the field, at his residence, or wherever he was last seen. Ask your people to look for anything suspicious at the place where he had the accident…” Bella ordered.
Bella could ask Stefan to find CCTV footage, but she believes if someone killed Robert, they must have deleted all the CCTV footage, right?
“I will immediately order our people to investigate now…” Sam is excited. This is the first significant case they have to handle since he formed a new team.
“Good! But be careful not to attract anyone’s attention. We are new to this country… I don’t want certain people in this country to notice our Sentinel Network.”
“Sure, Boss.” Sam smiles at Bella. He believes his people’s talent makes tasks like this easy for them. “Anything else, boss?”
