Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan)
Chapter 560

Chapter 560

Karl told her the time and location to meet.

Then, he asked before hanging up, "Do you know Lena well?"

Stella said, "I'm very close with her husband's brother."

Karl asked no more questions and said, "See you later."

Detective Kar] was a very famous private detective in Rivera. He did not have an office and was very difficult to find.

However, he posted his email address on a public forum.

Anyone who wished to hire him could send him an email.

But, he would only reply if he was keen to take the job.

If he did not reply after a week, he was uninterested.

Stella started to think that the accident from seven years ago was suspicious after she found what was in the safe and knew that Rainee wanted to divorce Albert at about the same time when the accident happened.

She called Lena and asked about the case after she was done with Rainee's funeral.

Lena was in the Criminal Investigation Department, but she knew someone who worked in the traffic department.

So, Lena asked her friend's help to reopen the file from seven years ago.

She found out that the officer in charge of that accident did not collect Rainee's blood sample, so no drug test was conducted.

That being said, it was not proved whether Rainee consumed anti-depressants.

In other words, the police officer assumed she took anti-depressants because Albert said Rainee was going through a depressive episode.

However, there was no proof at all to back it up.

Lena said plenty of surveillance cameras were around the scene, so they could see exactly how the accident happened.

Besides, the other party involved in the accident wanted to close the case as soon as possible, so they handled it as just a normal road accident.

The cases ended with a private settlement.

Lena added, "One of my senior's colleagues was in charge of this case. He told me that both parties wanted to close the case immediately. The traffic department was having a transition at that time too. They did not want the cases to pile up, so they took care of it promptly. However, the traffic department did suggest conducting a blood test, but Albert Jewell rejected them by saying that your mother was still in the ICU as an excuse."

Lena could help Stella discover more about what happened, but Stella had the option to find it out by going through the proper channels.

After all, she was the driver's family member, and it would only take more time if she were to do that.

All Lena did was save her some time.

However, she told Stella that there were other things that she could not disclose to her after walking her through the case summary. Clearly, she was reminding Stella of something from a personal perspective.

The case was way too suspicious.

A drug test was not going to require a lot of blood.

Rainee had a major injury to her head, but she had enough blood supply after getting a blood transfusion.

It was strange that Albert refused to do a blood test because of that.

Besides, the drug test could not wait long because the substances would be metabolized over time, and detecting them would be very hard.

Albert acted as if he did not want to prove his wife's innocence but just wanted to get out of the case.

The police officers were suspicious of him too, but he had to listen to his superior.

Their superior officer told them to end the case, so they had no choice but to follow.

Stella started to get more skeptical after learning more about the accident from Lena. However, the car involved had been scraped after so many years.

So, she could not apply to bring the case back to court again without new pieces of evidence.

So, Lena recommended Detective Karl to her and gave her his email to give it a shot.

Stella played smart.

She figured that Detective Karl would not necessarily be interested in an old traffic accident because Karl usually only accepted popular unsolved cases or cases involving wealthy men having an affair. Yes, that was both his extremes when picking a case to investigate.

The former was to make a name for himself, and the latter was to make money.

Stella was worried that he might ignore her, so she wrote that she was a friend of Lena at the end of the email. She did so because she felt Lena knew Karl well when she introduced him. So, she pushed her luck, thinking they might be very good friends.

And it worked.

Stella played smart.
