Keely has been hospitalized for quite some time, hasnt she?
Cayson asked, You think Keely is the brain behind all this?
Tapping her index finger on her desk, Loraine replied, Whoever plotted such a thorough scheme must hate my guts. It so happens that this person is at a hospital. I cant think of anyone else except Keely.
Cayson was rather indignant after hearing that. Do you want me to teach her a lesson?
No, not yet. We dont have substantial evidence to prove shes the mastermind, Loraine said, shaking her head. A quick wit flashed through her mind. But that doesnt mean I would let this slide for now. Since the enemy struck first, I must strike back!

Just then, someone knocked on the door.
A cop came to ask Loraine some questions about the protest issue.
After answering all the questions truthfully, she asked curiously,
Officer, are Elmo and Barr still in your custody at the moment? They got arrested some time back, right? Will they get charged for bribing a government official? Whats the Latest update on the case?
The policeman was stunned by her questions at first. But then, it occurred to him that Loraine was one of the victims involved in the previous bribery case.
Well, the case is still under investigation. The suspects have refused to cooperate with us, so we havent had any breakthrough so far. If you have any useful information, please do not hesitate to inform me.
Loraine smiled and nodded as every law-abiding citizen would.
Perhaps you can start by taking a look into all those who are connected to Elmo, such as the members of the Haywood family.
The policeman thought it through for a while and then nodded. You have a point there. ILL do just that. Thank you.

Dont mention it. Im obligated to offer help to the police as a law-abiding citizen.
Shortly after, several members of the Haywood family were placed under thorough investigation due to their suspected involvement in the bribery case.
In the past, they had taken care of Elmos mess at Keelys request. He was in trouble with the government yet again. It cost them a great deal to clean up everything that indicated their involvement.
Naturally, they gave Keely an earful. She couldnt hear the Last of the matter.
Everyone was so annoyed with her because they had only helped her in the past after she assured them that she would marry into the Bryant family, which was very wealthy.
Not only was she yet to keep her promise, but they were also in a mess thanks to her.
They were breathing down her neck as they demanded to know why she hadnt made progress with her plan to marry Marco.
Keely was a bundle of nerves at this time.
She couldnt wait any longer. She must act now! Marco was hers, so she couldnt allow anyone to steal him away.
