Chapter 73: Chapter 69: Supporting Two Young Men

Translator: 549690339

With Roy Lewis taking away the eldest son, Richelle Dunn finally had some time to get down to her remaining work.

The task, which should have been finished last night but had been delayed until now due to the chaos yesterday and this morning, was finally picking up where it left off.

Before Richelle got to work, she sent a message to Hugo Camrey.

“Has the client added more to the deposit?”

Hugo responded with a few exclamations marks and, after a while, asked her again.

“Richelle, are you short of cash? If so, I can lend you some.”

Richelle indeed needed money, but she needed a large amount, not the small sum that Hugo and Vanessa Brown could lend her.

“Yes, I’m short. Can you and Vanessa send me US$ 13,670,000?”

Hugo: “Fuck, do you think we’re like you? Taking jobs worth millions on a whim? What on earth do you need that much money for? Supporting boy toys?”

Images of her lovely children’s smiling faces flashed before Richelle’s eyes. She laughed and replied.

“Isn’t that right? I have to support two boy toys and a little girl. Isn’t that expensive!”

Her words were so flippant that they sounded like a joke.

Hugo: “Why don’t you support me as well? I want to be a kept man too, spending my days eating and waiting for death.”

Richelle bantered with him for a while before she asked.

“Seriously though, this client seems to be quite influential. Do you mind disclosing more?”

Richelle had a hunch that her pushy nature might put her in trouble.

“I don’t know the specifics, but he’s definitely a bigshot that we can’t afford to provoke. You can forget about asking for more deposit, just get the job done as soon as possible and get out without stirring trouble.”

That’s also what Richelle was thinking. Once she’s done packaging the information, she could just swallow her pride and say something nice to the client. It wouldn’t kill her.

However, if she offended this bigshot in the process, it wasn’t even about the money anymore. If the client wanted to set her up, it would be as easy as pie.

“Ok, I understand!”

Richelle blocked out the chat box, logged in to the system, and quickly dove into her work.

Around ten o’clock, she had collected the last bit of data, compiled it and sent it to the client.

Once she hit send, she didn’t care about it any further because she was busy going through the data she had just deciphered.

“Ding dong!”

Richelle received a mysterious email from an anonymous account, a compressed file named “123456”.

She was always cautious with these untraceable files.

Often, she would first verify their safety before deciding whether to delete or open them.

While she was contemplating, she received another message from a different anonymous account.

“No more deposit will be added, but there’s an extra bonus for you.”

Richelle immediately thought of the compressed file she just received. “You mean that file 123456?”

“Yes!”

After mulling it over, Richelle finally decided that the client wouldn’t want to harm her, especially because she had only completed about half of the task so far.

So, she decompressed the file and opened it.

Well, this bonus was way more generous than any extra deposit!

Now, she entirely agreed with Hugo.

This client was definitely out of her league!

Because what he sent her were some top-secret documents about the Dunn Group.

And these secret documents were something she couldn’t possibly obtain even by hacking into the Dunn Group’s system.

“Curious, what is your purpose in giving me these?”

It wasn’t surprising that Richelle asked’s so bluntly. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. Suddenly, a big stuffed bun appeared, and to say there were no strings attached, would fool no one.

“No purpose.”

But this client indeed didn’t seem to care whether she believed him or not.

Richelle carefully reviewed the content and analyzed it against the data she had recently hacked. She confirmed that these documents were highly credible. “Well, thank you then!”

This potential benefactor, highly likely, wanted the demise of the Dunn Group just as she did!

As for why this benefactor wanted the Dunn Group gone, that was not something she needed to investigate.

Having multiple reliable allies, after all, was far stronger than her taking on the battle alone.

The next day, Richelle Dunn went to the Lewis residence to perform acupuncture on Roy Lewis, and had Uncle Axel take Timmy over first.

She, on the other hand, drove to the “Pioneer” internet cafe again.

The front desk attendant immediately stood up when he saw her, “Big boss, are you here to see the boss?”

Richelle Dunn nodded, “Yes, is he in?”

The attendant walked out, “Yes, he’s in. I’ll take you up.”

Richelle Dunn waved her hand, “No need, you can go about your business, I’ll find him myself.”

The attendant had no choice but to nod.

Richelle Dunn walked a few steps after going upstairs, and found Hugo Camrey sprawled out on a circular couch, sound asleep with the door to the second floor wide open.

Richelle Dunn closed the door first, walked over, and nudged his leg with her knee.

“Hugo, wake up.”

Hugo groggily opened his eyes, it took a while for his gaze to clear up. He sat up rubbing his eyes, yawned a big one, and sleepily asked her.

“Why are you here again?”

Richelle Dunn helped herself to some water from the refrigerator, took a few sips, and then said.

“There’s something, I need to ask you and Vanessa for help.”

Hugo had completely woken up by then, he took a careful look at her, his expression immediately becoming serious.

“Important matter? Can’t it be discussed over the phone?”

With a solemn expression, Richelle nodded, “Very important!”

Hugo nodded, “Let me wash my face first, take a smoke, okay?”

Richelle Dunn uttered an affirmation, she too, needed some time to sort out her thoughts and phrase her words carefully, trying to keep things short and sweet.

Hugo walked over with a can of beer, took a sip after sitting down.

“Go on, what matter is weighing you down so much.”

Richelle Dunn asked him, “Are you familiar with Lordon City?”

Hugo was very straightforward, “Pretty familiar!”

“How about the Dunn family?”

“Not so much!”

Richelle Dunn and Hugo Camrey met over four years ago, they initially clashed over a misunderstanding but eventually, they unexpectedly found that they were kindred spirits and gradually became friends.

Hugo Camrey may seem to be a casual and carefree character, seemingly indifferent and unconcerned about everything.

But from the little information revealed in his daily speech, Richelle could conclude that he comes from a pretty fortunate family background.

However, these were personal matters, and since Hugo never mentioned them, she never asked.

But now, if she wanted to deal with Jayden Dunn, apart from the information she had on hand, she needed something more.

But she had left the Federation for so many years and had absolutely no connections here. As for her old acquaintances in Lordon, she, a person who had disappeared for several years, could not just contact them abruptly now.

Hence, the people she could ask for help were limited to just Hugo and Vanessa.

“Do you know that there’s someone named Richelle Dunn from the Dunns in Lordon?”

She asked this casually, but Hugo was startled and stared at her wide-eyed.

“Damn, don’t scare me, Richelle!”

Richelle Dunn responded ambiguously, “So, you know her?”

Hugo nodded, “The Richelle Dunn from the Dunn family is the only daughter of the former president, Zachary Dunn. Both her parents died in an accident and she, along with the Dunn Group, was taken over by her uncle. She went missing about five or six years ago, the Dunns reported it to the police, but it has been years and she should have been declared legally dead.”

After saying this, Hugo looked at her thoughtfully.

“Richelle, why are you suddenly asking about this?”

Richelle Dunn gave him a smile, “Because, I am that Richelle Dunn!”
