Chapter 1346

Vermont remained calm and did not feel angry due to the embarrassment of getting rejected.

He kept a distance away from Felicity and stopped holding her hands.

When the elevator stopped, he turned to Felicity and said," Let's go."

He still sounded very calm.

As if... the person who had confessed to her passionately just moments ago was not him.

Felicity's tensed heart felt sour.

However, Vermont still took her to the hospital for a blood test and check-up.

He only felt at ease after making sure that everything was fine with Felicity.

When they came out of the hospital, Vermont handed her the bag and said, "I need to go back to the office now. I

ordered a cab for you. You can go back on your own."

Felicity paused. "A-Aren't you going to get changed?"

Vermont chuckled. "That won't be necessary. I'm not exactly a respectable person to others anyway."

Felicity was taken aback and could not find the right words to say.

After walking Felicity to the cab, Vermont waved her goodbye before the car drove away.

She looked at Vermont through the rearview mirror in the car, but his figure became gradually blurry.

So, she immediately rolled the window down and looked outside.

Vermont had already turned around and slowly disappeared in the distance, blending in with the crowd.

She sat back in the car, and her mind was blank, i

Vermont did not go to work. Instead, he went to the club he would always go to.

He was frustrated and needed a drink to ease his mind.

Stella and Keegan left early in the morning.

That was because Stella had received an audio file from Xenia.

It turned out that Hylda had run out of money and contacted Albert to demand for some money.

They were going to meet up in person, and Xenia could not be there. So, she placed a tiny listening device in

Albert's pocket before he left.

Then, she extracted the audio recording from the device and sent a copy to Stella.

Stella played it, and she heard Hylda's voice.

"Walter came to me."

Walter Ramsey was the Jewell family’s former driver, who had recently fallen ill and was being treated in the

hospital. Stella remembered him very well.

Albert frowned. "What does he want?"

"Money. He needs to get his malignant tumor treated."

"What?" Albert got upset. "I already paid him a lot of money when I told him to leave back then. It has already been

so many years. He probably spent it all and wants more now. He's out of his mind."

Hylda replied calmly, "I think so too. However, he's threatening me with Rainee's accident. He said that he'll go to

the police if I don't give him money."

Albert's expression changed. "The police? It was purely an accident. What does that have to do with us? He's

getting way too desperate for money."

"Albert, it's just the two of us now. There's no need to put up the act anymore. We both know what exactly

happened to Rainee. And Walter... he knows too. Otherwise, he wouldn't come so boldly at me and blackmail me.

Albert became very anxious upon hearing that, as he said worriedly, "What are you talking about? I don't know

anything!

Hylda did not have the patience to argue with him on his matter. However, she knew that Albert had to pay Walter,

or her secret would be exposed.

Then, she said in a deep voice, "Albert, we're in the same boat here. It's true that I was the one who tampered with

her brake, but you're not exactly innocent either. You were the one who secretly placed her antidepressants at the

scene. Otherwise, the police would have never concluded the case and said that she simply had a depressive

episode.

"Walter knows about this, and now he's blackmailing me. He's asking for money to treat his illness. Would I have

come to you if I had any other choice? If the police reopen this investigation and both of us get into trouble, can

you imagine what would happen to the Jewell family and the kids?!"
