Chapter 1351
All of Albert’s ill-gotten money had essentially been obtained through Rainee’s misery. It was only fitting for this money to be returned to its original source.
Keegan lent his full support to Stella when she robbed the rich to help the poor. He cleaned up the aftermath efficiently and went the extra mile by planting a miniature listening device inside Walter’s wallet.
The nifty gadget was a new creation from their lab, and it was developed in collaboration with some top-notch associates. The product had yet to hit the market, so it was a perfect opportunity to put its capabilities to the test.
Walter was rushed to the hospital. It was unknown whether the shock of losing his cash affected his condition, but his health took a nosedive. The doctors urged him to make a decision. Surgery could potentially extend his life by a few more years, while any further delay would allow the cancer to spread beyond control.
Naturally, Walter wanted to live, but he could not afford the treatment now that his money was gone. Moreover, he could not report the robbery to the police because they would dig up the truth behind the source of the funds and make matters worse.
He did not understand how he could get robbed in a city known for its tight security and law enforcement. ‘The transaction venue was so discreet. How did those robbers manage to corner me so effectively? And how did they know that the suitcase contained cash?’
As Walter ruminated over these questions, a realization crept over him. ‘This wasn’t a robbery, but a meticulously designed plot by Hylda! She had never intended to let me keep that money!’ he thought.
Walter’s face looked angry after this revelation.
