The fish stew looked murky and tasted fishy. It was also salty, spicy, and a little burned The weird combination of flavors made it almost inedible.

Leighton was in absolute shock when he took the first sip. He had never eaten something as disgusting as that before.

“Does it taste bad?” Estelle could not help but ask after she saw his reaction.

As a fan of Dusk Galaxy, Leighton vowed to defend his idol’s image until the end. So, he said, “No. It’s pretty tasty.”

“Then, why did you spit it out?”

“It was too hot,” Leighton stubbornly said.

Estelle did not bother to continue the conversation and said, “I’m gonna go wash up. Remember to go to bed after you finished your stew. We have work tomorrow.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

After Estelle left, Leighton stared at the pot of stew and thought, ‘Should I just throw it out? Stella did make it for me, but it’s literally so hard to swallow.’

Leighton frowned, as he thought about what he should do with the food. Then, he suddenly remembered Keegan’s idea of giving some to Trevor. He was not willing to do so earlier, but now it seemed like an excellent idea. ‘There’s no way I’m suffering alone,’ he thought as he quickly packed things up

and had someone send the stew over to Elegant Media.

Trevor was still working in the office at that time. Xavier signed the package and thought that it was from the Saun family. He put the stew in a bowl and sent it to Trevor’s office without question. That night, Trevor drove to Leighton’s residence and beat him up while the true culprit was safe at home.

Stella was washing up when Aldor called Keegan. Keegan then left the bedroom to answer the phone. Mr. Kane, I’ve checked the surveillance. A kid in the elevator pulled Ms. Jewell’s mask off, and two girls recognized her.”

“A kid?”

“Yes. The woman carrying the kid almost fell, and Ms. Jewell helped her. That was when the child yanked her mask off.”

“Have you tracked them down?”

“Not yet. The woman was also wearing a mask and did not take it off during the whole thing. There’s no trace of her after she left the mall on foot.”

Keegan felt that it was strange. “She had a child with her. Did she not get into a car?”

Aldor also thought that it was odd. When the incident happened, the woman looked at it from a distance and left with her child in a hurry. The traffic near the shopping mall was complicated since there were more vehicles involved.

‘The woman was carrying a child who was about two or

three years old. That’s the age when a child would be running around. She was also carrying some things with her. Logically speaking, she should have taken some sort of transport instead of walking,’ thought Aldor.

“What about the troublemakers? Are they related to each other?” Keegan asked again.

Aldor snapped back to his senses and said, “Two of the high school students know each other, but they don’t know the woman who threw the glass. I looked into their socials and found no real connection between them. But all three of them are avid fans of Bella. In addition to that…”

Aldor paused and said in a low voice, “The person who threw the glass at Ms. Jewell is also one of the culprits behind the cyberbullying against Dusk Galaxy last year. For some reason, she was left out when Ms. Jewell sued the bullies this year…”

Keegan’s face darkened when he heard that.

Aldor continued, “The parents of the perpetrators have already rushed to the police station. Several families are advocating for a settlement. Ms. Jewell’s lawyer suggests the same since minors are involved. If this case is not handled well, it could potentially have an impact on Ms.

Jewell’s reputation.”

“Have the kids write a 3000-word apology and present it to the public during their school assembly. If they’re willing to do so, the case would be settled. If they don’t…” Keegan paused slightly before he said, “We’ll push on with the charges!”

Aldor knew in his heart that Keegan was already being generous. He would not have given them the option if they were not underage.

“Track down that mother and child and contact me if anything comes up.”

“Alright, Mr. Kane.”
