Chapter 176She had basically figured out the truth about the fire. However, she knew she could not easily find out
who made Kenny set the fire.
After getting on the plane, Anna sat in her seat, stared out of the window and was lost in thought. A few
minutes later, a flight attendant approached Anna.
“Excuse me, lady, are you Miss Gabriel?” The flight attendant asked. Hearing her sweet voice, Anna
immediately snapped back to her senses and said, “Um, yes, I
am
“Well, you have been upgraded to business class.” Anna froze for a moment and asked, “Why?”
“I‘m sorry, I‘m not sure about that. But, someone would sit on this seat later. Shall I take you to your
seat in business class, please?”
Anna had no idea what was going on and had to follow the flight attendant to the business class
“Miss Gabriel, this is your seat. If you need anything, you can call me anytime.”
“Okay, thanks,” Anna said, and then sat down in her seat. She turned her head sideways and froze
after seeing the face of the man next to her.
She said in surprise, “Mr. Wilson?”
Randal put the newspaper down and looked at Anna. He was wearing a pair of gold–rimmed glasses
that blocked his eyes, which were so calm that they seemed to carry no emotion. He said slowly,
“Hello, Miss Gabriel. We‘ve met again.”He looked at ease as if he already knew we would meet Anna, which made her wary She said, “Mr.
Wilson, did you upgrade my seats?”
Randal held up his glasses. He looked so calm and composed like a typical business elite. He said,
“Yes. I heard that we happened to be on the same plane, so I got you a more comfortable seat. I know
that I still owe you a favor and that you would never reach out to me.”
Even his words were logical.
“But, I believe that there are no coincidences in the world.” Anna looked Randal straight in the eye. She
looked at him with great suspicion and wanted him to know what he was thinking.
Anna thought to herself. This is definitely not a coincidence! Why did he happen to know that I was also
on this plane? I‘m not going to believe his explanation. What a lame excuse! It seems that he isn‘t
going to hide his intentions at all.
Randal replied, “It doesn‘t matter if it‘s deliberate or coincidental. Anyway, I think we met here just
because of fate.”
Anna fastened her seat belt, smiled slightly, and said, “Oh, but I‘m engaged, Mr. Wilson.”
Anna knew that men all over the world approach women with one purpose in mind. However, it was up
to the woman to respond.
Randal did not seem to be interested in her words. He smiled like a gentleman and replied,
“Congratulations.”
After saying this, both of them stopped talking. Anna soon fell asleep after the plane took off. Then,
Randal out away his newspaper andAfter that, he did something jaw–dropping – he quietly took a picture of himself and Anna with his
camera.
The assistant was sitting across the aisle from him. When he saw that, his eyes widened in shock. He
was so surprised that he almost couldn’t believe his eyes.
Randal, however, acted like nothing had happened. He called the flight attendant over and told her to
bring Anna a blanket.
Anna fell into a deep sleep, so she had no idea what was going on. However, it took her a long time to
realize what Randal was doing with that photo.
Even though she guessed that Randal had a purpose for changing her seat, she fell asleep because
she was too tired.
Wayne and Gabe were in the building of the headquarters of Carousel Group. Wayne told Gabe to
conduct a thorough investigation into the cause of the fire. After investigating for a week, Gabe went to
Wayne with some files.
“As far as I know, this incident has little to do with Mike. I deduced that in order to smoke, Mike
damaged the smoke alarm system. However, the source of the fire was not that cigarette butt. The
kitchen was on fire in many places, and it looked like someone had burned fuel that was
poured on the floor. So, I think someone set the fire on purpose.”
Wayne stared at the surveillance screen in front of him, and his gaze became gloomy. He asked, “Who
did it?”
Gabe said with certainty, “That person is definitely an employee at our hotel. I think there is a good
chance that Mike’s apprentice, Kenny, did something. But, he wouldn’t do it voluntarily. So, I checkedhis bank account, and found that someone gave him a large amount of money.”
“What? Our competitor did it, right?”
“Oh, that‘s what I thought at first. But, then, I saw something suspicious in the surveillance.”
With that, Gabe began to play the security video from the night before the fire started. At that time,
several employees were moving groceries out of a car at the hotel‘s back door. They did this every
night to ensure that they had the freshest vegetables for the next day.
Gabe paused the video and zoomed in. Then, he pointed to a man in a black trench coat carrying the
goods and said, “I‘ve seen this man before on a camera footage. I‘m sure that he went to Leo‘s house
in Laxis Town before.”
Wayne‘s eyes widened with a hint of astonishment.
Even though the man covered his face with a hat, Wayne could see a long scar on the right side of his
face. The scar made him look scary.
“Who is he?” Wayne asked.
Gabe immediately replied, “I‘ve run a background check on him. His name is Steve Brown, and his
nickname is Scar Brown. He had been in jail several times for intentional assault and was released six
months ago. He joined a gang and is now working in collecting debts.”
This man is the most suspicious one. Since he is working on helping people to collect
Wayne debts, how is it possible he works as a porter for the food supplier for no good reason?novelbin
