“Rena, Ali told me something really bizarre. I’ve also mentioned it to Mitch.” Her voice was filled with confusion.

“Shoot”

I was visiting my mom in the hospital. I massaged her hand while answering Stella.

Alicia bumped into Louis Aldridge in the Dreamscape District, and at the time, Louis was having dinner with a company’s head. This company was one of Whitmore Co’s strongest competitors. They had a huge rivalry over resources a few years back.

Wasn’t Louis Neil’s friend? Why was he dining with Whitmore Co’s competitor?

It was indeed weird, but since Mitch knew about it, he’d definitely tell Neil.

“Rena, my guess might sound like a conspiracy theory “Stella lowered her voice, “Who leaked that news about Neil’s father? I asked Halley. The anonymous person seemed to know the Whitmore family really well. Could it be Louis?”

This guess gave me goosebumps, “No way night? Louis has no reason to do that!”

“Exactly! Isn’t he just the son of a driver from the Whitmore family? The Whitmores have helped him and his dad a lot. Why would he do that?” Stella was also puzzled
