Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 1371

Hylda froze when she heard the housekeeper's words. "Wh- What did you just say?" she asked anxiously.

The housekeeper, who did not reside in Hylda's place, had to return home late at night. She was concerned about

the killer on the loose since the area where the suitcase murder had occurred happened to be very close to her

residence. Though she pretended to be brave, her fears were genuine.

Over the past few days, the housekeeper had been closely following various sources for updates on the case. She

hoped more than anyone that the police would apprehend the killer soon so she could feel safe during her daily

commutes.

Early that morning, the housekeeper read a message in one of her group chats about how the police had sealed off

a section of Cornelia Avenue. It seemed they had found crucial evidence related to the suitcase murder case. Some

rumors suggested it was the victim's phone, while others claimed it was the murder weapon.

Hylda's face turned even paler when she heard the mention of Cornelia Avenue. After killing him, she dismantled

Walter's phone and tore up his wallet. Then, she disposed of them separately in several trash bins in the area.

Cornelia Avenue was dozens of miles from where she had disposed of the body. She deliberately kept these two

locations far apart to avoid potential issues. However, the police still managed to find the items.

Hylda was alarmed by the unexpected efficiency of the authorities. They were working much faster than they had

in the case of Rainee's car accident.

Hylda's scalp tightened, and her face lost all color. She was overwhelmed with anxiety, thinking about how the

police could have traced the man's belongings.

Hylda did not know Walter's phone password and was unsure if it contained any evidence. So, she smashed the

phone to the point where it couldn't be turned on before disposing of it. At the same time, there was nothing

incriminating in Walter's wallet besides his ID and various cards. She had cleaned everything meticulously and

ensured no fingerprints would be left behind. 'The police shouldn't be able to trace those things back to me,' she

thought.

Hylda kept telling herself to remain calm. She knew she could not stay in Rivera any longer, regardless of whether

the police could trace her or not. 'Living a fancy life as Mrs. Jewell means nothing anymore now. My top priority is to

take all my money and disappear.'

Hylda picked up her phone and called Albert abruptly. "Give me fifty million dollars, and let's get a divorce," She said

firmly.

Albert was bewildered. "What's gotten into you?"

Hylda had no patience to indulge him or his sweet talk as she used to. Instead, she got straight to the point, "That

woman's belly is getting bigger every day. Don't pretend you don't want to marry her just so your son wouldn't be

seen as a bastard. Plus, there's no chance you haven't thought about divorcing me."

Albert remained silent. Hylda knew him all too well. His willingness to commit to a marriage had never been about

cherishing the other person; it had always been for the sake of his son. Just as he had tied the knot with her for

Hugo's sake, he would now leave her and marry Xenia for the same reason.

Albert thought about it for a moment and said calmly, "We could get a divorce, but the fifty million is out of the

question."
