Chapter 266 Todd Vale


Rowena had no idea what was happening, nor did she know the relationship between Stellan and Ambrose. She only saw Stellan's body stiffen, and she had to stop as well. "Just three minutes, and I'll disappear right after," Ambrose said sincerely.

"Rowena, you go back to the private room and wait for me. I'll be there shortly," Stellan said to Rowena.

"Okay." Before leaving, Rowena couldn't help but remind her, "Be careful."

Rowena glanced at Ambrose again before stepping away. After she left, Stellan looked at Ambrose and said, "You have two minutes left."

"Stellan, you know that I'm just an illegitimate child of the Vale family. I know very little about their secrets, but one thing I do know is that your Storm family's bankruptcy is related to them," Ambrose said.

When Stellan heard this, her first reaction was to find it laughable. "Nonsense. The Vale family and the Storm family are far apart and have no dealings with each other. How is that related?" Stellan didn't believe it at all. "I shouldn't have wasted these two minutes listening to your bullshit!"

"I don't know why either, but what I'm saying is true. If you don't believe me, don't you at least believe Alaric?" Ambrose uttered.

Stellan was about to leave, but she stopped when she heard Alaric's name and asked, "What does this have to do with Alaric?"

Ambrose replied, "Not long ago, during the final inspection of the casino, Alaric told me he also suspected that the Vale family was involved in your Storm family's bankruptcy. At the time, I denied it vehemently. Now, I'm telling you this because I can't bear to see you searching for clues aimlessly."

'Can't bear to see it?' Stellan knew it was a complete lie, but she believed the earlier part because Alaric had repeatedly asked her last night if she knew Todd. So, Ambrose was right in a way?

"Save your so-called good intentions. Who knows what you're up to? Whether the Vale family is involved in our Storm family's bankruptcy, I'll find out myself. I don't need you meddling." With that, Stellan walked away. Seeing her leave like that, Ambrose felt heartbroken but also a bit smug.

Todd was coming to Arizona tomorrow. If Stellan found out that the Storm family's bankruptcy was related to the Vale family, Alaric would definitely help her handle him. In that case, Todd might really not make it back this time. Ambrose thought it was better to throw this hot potato to Alaric instead of taking action himself.
