Chapter 278:

Silver Fox replied, “Black Snake, I was just about to report to you. Based on what you mentioned, Amiri was killed between eight and nine o’clock yesterday morning. However, it wasn’t until yesterday afternoon that news broke about Amiri’s death aboard the Sunrise. They provided no further details, leading to rampant speculation. Some believe Amiri died from a sudden illness, others think Connor murdered him, a few suspect other enemies, and there are even whispers that one of his women poisoned him. In short, the rumors are rampant. Neither Amiri’s team nor the Sunrise addressed these speculations, allowing public opinion to swell unchecked. Then, around noon today, the Sunrise issued a statement under Paul’s name claiming responsibility for Amiri’s death.”

Upon receiving Silver Fox’s message, Marissa realized Paul had fulfilled his promise by taking full blame for Amiri’s death, ensuring neither she nor Connor came under suspicion. Silver Fox added, “Black Snake, Paul’s actions are baffling. By making such an announcement, he’s essentially confirmed that the Sunrise was involved in Amiri’s murder. Why would he do that?”

Marissa replied, “Because I struck a deal with Paul.”

Curious, Silver Fox inquired, “What kind of deal?”
