Chapter 294
Gordon was extremely cautious. According to the investigators, it took them so long to track him down because, upon his initial return to Kroit City, he had moved his family around extensively, relocating across multiple cities before finally settling back in his hometown in Kroit City.
It was evident he was desperate to avoid being found.
Aubree sat on the plane bound for Kroit City, poring over the documents handed to her.
Gordon ran a flower shop with his wife in their hometown, raising their daughter. Money wasn’t an issue for him. After all, he helped Alice pull off a major deception, so Alice certainly wouldn’t shortchange him.
The investigation unearthed even more intriguing details. Gordon and Alice had known each other long before he became her psychologist. Gordon, a psychology graduate from Rithol University, studied in Fandia, the very country where Alice’s fashion brand primarily targeted its market.
They met during Gordon’s study abroad years in Fandia.
No matter what happened between them, it all came down to the oldest story in the book. Gordon was clearly smitten with Alice. After becoming her psychologist, he went to extreme lengths to help her. Even after taking his payment and disappearing, he painstakingly covered for her, meticulously hiding his tracks to avoid being found.
Aubree picked up another document. It concerned her collaboration with the aforementioned Mr. Carr, whom she had mentioned earlier.
Kurtis Carr was a major figure in Kroit City’s entertainment industry, with a comprehensive business portfolio. When he first approached Aubree for collaboration, she was delighted for quite some time. Now that her Zappy short video platform was running smoothly, she was ready to branch out into novel promotions and short drama productions.
Not only could these two ventures generate profits, but they’d also help her establish valuable connections in the entertainment industry.

Kurtis was the undisputed leader in these industries. Working with him could save a lot of time and money.

Dorcas was constantly flying back and forth between Kroit City and Rithol City. Just when she thought she was about to seal the deal, Kurtis would conjure up a new issue shortly after she got back, forcing their team to dispatch someone again.
