Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 2105
After collecting the money, Vermont tossed the dice to the person beside him and
poured two glasses of liquor. He handed one to Marshall and sat down next to
him. "Did you come from the office?"
"Yeah; Marshall responded and took a sip of the drink.
"Why are you and Ms. Thompson fighting?"
Vermont's expression instantly turned sour upon hearing Marshall's question.
"We're here to have fun. Why do you have to ask about such unhappy things?"
Marshall said gently, "Ms. Thompson is a very genuine and nice person. She's
younger than you, and you should be more accommodating to her.”
"Am I not being accommodating enough to her?" Vermont put down his glass and
spoke with a stern face. "I've had so many girlfriends; have I ever been as open
and sincere with any of them as I am with her?
"I know she's a genuine person, but she spends all her effort on her friend. When
does she ever care about me? She isn't even willing to bring me to meet her
mother. Am I such a bad boyfriend that she can't bring me to her mother?"
Marshall chuckled upon hearing that. "Girls are shy. Maybe she's just not ready
yet. After all, your relationship with her is stable now. There's no need to rush
things."
Vermont waved his hand. "I asked you here to drink with me, not to lecture me.
I'm going to leave if you don't stop talking about this."
Marshall stopped speaking and clinked glass with Vermont.
After a few drinks, he started chatting with Carter.
"Lena is going to transfer to another department, right? Has she done so?"
Carter shook his head. "She loves what she's doing too much and doesn't want
to transfer. I'm just going to let her be. As long as she's happy with what she's
doing, I'm happy too."
Marshall nodded and casually asked, "How many years has Lena been in this
position?"
Carter thought for a moment before he said, "About six or seven years, I think."
"Six or seven years..." Marshall pondered as he continued, "Around six or seven
years ago, there were a few major cases in Rivera. When I was abroad, I heard
from my family that the culprit of the serial killings in Sierra was caught six years
ago.
"It happened near The Hox Club area. Later, when the police found out where the
killer buried the victims, they found the remains of eight bodies. Was Lena
involved in that case?"
Carter paused for a moment and poured himself another glass of liquor. He
responded with a smile, "She was just an intern back then. How could she have
had the opportunity to participate in such a major case? Even if she did, she
would have just been assisting from the sidelines."
Marshall sighed. "Time flies, huh? We used to always hang out at The Hox Club,
but hardly anyone knows about that place anymore now. It was such a famous
place, and now it's gone without a trace.”
Carter did not say anything.
He was thinking about the person Keegan asked him to investigate yesterday,
the one who fell to his death at The Hox Club. "Why is Marshall repeatedly
mentioning this place?’ he wondered.
Vermont did not sense anything wrong. After all, he was also here for a purpose.
