Chapter 1663
The car had already driven far away before Stella could react.
Just as she was about to chase the vehicle, Aldor pulled up. He leaned out of the window and said, "Get in, Mrs. Kane."While trembling, Stella entered the car and stared ahead. In a hoarse voice, she said, "Quick! Follow that car!"
Aldor was puzzled. "What car?"
"That white one! Hurry!" Stella urged in an agitated state. "I-l saw Keegan!"
Aldor was taken aback. He hastily started the car without asking for more details.
Since some time had passed, Aldor failed to catch sight of the vehicle. He followed Stella's instructions and went down two.streets only to encounter a red light. By the time the light turned green, the white sedan had disappeared without a trace. Aldorwas unsure of where to go next.
He looked at Stella and asked, "Mrs. Kane, are you sure you saw Mr. Kane?"
"| wouldn't make a mistake like this," Stella insisted. "It was him. | saw his eyes! Check the surveillance and find the license plateof that car. Once we identify the car, we can locate him!"novelbin
Aldor promptly contacted Carter to use his connections for the investigation. However, the feedback was that no white car hadbeen captured on surveillance before Aldor's arrival.
"That's impossible! | saw him! Tell Carter to send me the surveillance footage!"
“Official footage is strictly limited to viewing, Mrs. Kane. We're not permitted to create copies of the footage. Mr.
Lowe has no reason to lie to you. Perhaps you're exhausted. Why don't you rest for a bit?"
"| saw him," Stella insisted.
Aldor felt uneasy. It took a while before he said, "Let's get you home."
"No, thanks." Stella unbuckled her seatbelt. "I'll walk. You can go about your business."
Before Aldor could say anything, Stella had gotten out of the car.
Once outside, she hailed a cab. The driver asked for her destination, and after a long pause, she said, "Just drive around."The cab driver started the car after confirming that she was not drunk or disoriented.
Rivera was huge, and driving through every street and alley would likely take an entire day, but the driver was fine with doing soas long as Stella paid him.
Stella sat in the car for over two hours, exploring the nearby scenery. The driver was driving around the old city area when Stellasaid, "You can stop here."
The driver parked the car as instructed. Stella got out of the vehicle after she paid the fare.
There was a small pub not far ahead.
Stella had been there once during the time Bella provoked her when she was selling a bag. In addition to dealing with thetroublesome matters involving the Jewell family, she got thoroughly drunk. In the end, Keegan had come to pick her up-
Stella stood at the entrance of the pub and pushed the door open.
Although she had not been there for a while, she noticed that the pub remained unchanged. Even the Christmas decorationsfrom the previous year were still in place, and they had the same bartender.
Stella took her usual seat at the corner of the bar. The bartender politely asked, "What would you like to drink, Miss? n"Just make me something good,” Stella replied.The bartender made her their signature cocktail.
Then, Stella took a sip. The alcohol was not strong. The drink had a faint sweetness to it and a hint of lychee.
