Under such temptation, Bennett Kane also developed selfish intentions.
He agreed to Teresa Thorne's plan and helped her execute this evil sche.
After returning to Rexton City, Bennett Kane kept waiting for news from Teresa Thorne. About a month later, Teresa Thorne gave him Cassandra Ford's route ho to visit her family.
Upon hearing this.
Dirk Carter asked, "Cassandra Ford was raped and then murdered. Was it done by soone you arranged?"
Bennett Kane shook his head and said, "It wasn't my arrangent; it was soone Teresa Thorne sent. Three brothers: the oldest is Josh Carter, the second is Gabe Carter, and the third is Ephraim Carter. I'm not very familiar with their information; I only know that all three have been soldiers and on the battlefield, and they are all ruthless. My task in Rexton City was simply to arrange food, lodging, and transportation for these three brothers."
And so.
Cassandra Ford's body was abandoned in the wilderness.
Not long after this incident.
Teresa Thorne told Bennett Kane that she was pregnant.
But she wouldn't abort the child.
She wanted to marry into The Hughes family with this child, making their child the heir to The Hughes family.
This moved Bennett Kane deeply.
That's why Bennett Kane was always so devoted to Teresa Thorne.
Later on.
Teresa Thorne managed, in so unknown way, to climb into Aurelius Hughes's bed, seizing the opportunity to enter the wealthy family and beco a daughter-in-law of The Hughes family. With her high skills, she thrived in The Hughes family.
Of course.
With Teresa Thorne's connection.
Bennett Kane's business indeed got better and better.
Step by step, he expanded and strengthened, achieving what is now the Apex Group.
"And what about Ashton Hughes? Was his sacrifice related to you?"
Dirk Carter continued to ask.
Bennett Kane shook his head and said, "This had nothing to do with . I only heard about it later. To be honest, I also suspected it might be Teresa Thorne, and I did ask her about it, but she denied it, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
Judging by his appearance, he didn't seem to be lying.
Ti was tight, and Dirk Carter didn't dwell on this matter.
He said, "Next, let's talk about the ntal hospital, about Audrey Linden, Aspen Vance, and those girls I don't know—did you assault them?"
"No!"
Bennett Kane said.
Dirk Carter and Renee Carter exchanged a glance and asked, "No? Then who did?"
Bennett Kane looked at Dirk Carter and said, "It was Duncan Linden, the then Rexton City Party Secretary, now the Vice-Chairman of the Provincial People's Congress."
Upon hearing this na.
Both of their eyes widened.
This result was too shocking.
They never would have thought the beastly individual would be Duncan Linden.
It was Teresa Thorne, not Bennett Kane, who arranged all this.
Duncan Linden has a peculiar hobby; he was obsessed with lust, but unlike others, he had high standards and wouldn't touch anyone who wasn't a virgin.
But where to find so many virgins now?
At that ti, Apex Group was doing charity work at the ntal hospital. Bennett Kane accidentally discovered that many of the young girls there looked nice, and more importantly, they were virgins. Furthermore, since these girls had ntal issues, even if they were assaulted, no one would believe them if they spoke up.
So, he approached the hospital director at that ti, Kieran Sumrs.
Kieran Sumrs was also a greedy person.
The two hit it off.
Thus, there were victims like Audrey Linden and Aspen Vance.
Of course, the actual number of victimized girls wasn't limited to them. Bennett Kane rembered there were at least five, but he couldn't rember their nas at all.
Initially, everything went smoothly, and no traces were left.
Then, at this point, Gia Goz was transferred to work as a nurse at the ntal hospital.
She discovered the violation of the girls.
She even found Bennett Kane's Lakeside Villa.
On the day she was victimized, she hid in her dorm room and called her husband Milton Stone for help, but unfortunately, Kieran Sumrs overheard it.
He knew that Gia Goz could not be let go; otherwise, there would be big trouble.
So, he had Gia Goz co up to the rooftop under the pretense of discussing the victimized girls. At that ti, Gia Goz never expected Kieran Sumrs to be ready to eliminate her.
As she stepped onto the rooftop, Kieran Sumrs pushed her off.
When Milton Stone arrived at the scene, he saw only Gia Goz's corpse.
After that, Jamie Ford made his move. He took over the scene and transferred the investigative rights to the Criminal Investigation Departnt of the municipal bureau, so all evidence of Kieran Sumrs' murder was erased.
"A few months later, Milton Stone also died. Was that your arrangent too?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Bennett Kane nodded.
He said, "Initially, we didn't take Milton Stone seriously, but no one expected him to keep lurking around the Lakeside Villa. He even secretly took a photo of Duncan Linden entering the villa, and at that point, we knew Milton Stone couldn't be left alive."
Next.
It was Ephraim Carter's turn to act.
First, they faked a prostitution report.
That day, Milton Stone, who was on duty, led his team to the scene.
Upon arrival, Ephraim Carter secretly told Milton Stone that she knew the secret behind Gia Goz's death, but there was one condition: she had to talk to him alone, otherwise she wouldn't say anything.
This maneuver instantly grabbed Milton Stone's attention.
He desperately wanted to know the truth about his wife's death.
So he dismissed the other team mbers.
Leaving only him and Ephraim Carter alone in a room.
"I've looked at the previous records, and indeed, Milton Stone's bodily fluids were found inside Ephraim Carter. What happened there?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Bennett Kane said, "After the others left, I arranged for my subordinate Franco Carter to take people inside, forcing Milton Stone to swallow an aphrodisiac. Then they controlled him while Ephraim Carter willingly had intercourse with him, after which they dumped him into Clear Creek Reservoir. In the midst of this, Ephraim Carter called the police, and the whole plan left no flaws."
Upon hearing the details of this incident.
Dirk Carter felt as if a stone had lodged in his heart.
That kind of feeling was extrely suffocating.
Beside him, Renee Carter's eyes were already moist, and Dirk Carter noticed her fists were clenched, ready to rush forward and beat Bennett Kane at any mont.
Dirk Carter extended a hand and gently patted Renee Carter's shoulder.
He gave her an encouraging look.
Only then did Renee Carter manage to control her emotions.
"And Enzo Sawyer, how did he die?"
Dirk Carter continued to ask.
Bennett Kane said, "Just like Milton Stone, although Milton Stone's death was deed a suicide, Enzo Sawyer wouldn't let it go. What's worse, Enzo Sawyer was even more capable than Milton Stone; he managed to trace it all back to Franco Carter..."
The sense of crisis was intensifying.
Bennett Kane knew that Enzo Sawyer couldn't be let go either.
But the sa thod couldn't be repeated; a new sche had to be devised to make Enzo Sawyer's death look more natural.
So.
He arranged for Franco Carter to call Enzo Sawyer.
He said that the murder of Milton Stone was indeed his doing, but it was on the orders from above, and if he revealed the truth, he wouldn't survive. So he planned to withdraw so money from the bank, and after getting his hands on the money, he would disclose the truth to Enzo Sawyer, and then he would be on the run.
At this point.
Renee Carter interrupted him.
She asked, "Then why did Enzo Sawyer carry a gun?"
Bennett Kane said, "That was also Franco Carter's demand. He ntioned that his intention to flee had been detected by those above, who might send soone to kill him, so he asked Enzo Sawyer to bring a gun just in case. Enzo Sawyer was easy to deceive; thus, he walked right into the trap tailor-made for him."
