"Call the police and have him interrogated,’ said Carter.
Keegan was silent momentarily before he asked, "Can overseas account transfers be tracked?"
Carter paused. 'Once you send the money to the other party's account, it will be difficult to trace it. But... Now that
you know who the blackmailer is, you can monitor his local bank account since he's going to use the money unless
he plans on using it abroad."
Albert was not someone who would give up everything he had here and move out of the country. He was not going
to let go of the company he had worked hard for his entire life. Otherwise, he would not have blackmailed Keegan.
Keegan called Aldor and asked him to transfer 50 million dollars into the other party's overseas account in five
installments. Carter took a sip from his cup and said, "Why don't you just call the police?”

Carter was slightly taken aback. He glanced at Keegan and said nothing.
Keegan was the most law-abiding person in their circle. He would always use the law to seal someone's fate.
Between attempted extortion and extortion as a whole, the latter was sure to receive the heavier punishment.
When Stella was saved after being drugged in the bar, they could have let the police deal with the situation.
However, Keegan led the suspect to a fruit stall and allowed the perpetrator to stab him with a knife and beat him
badly in self-defense. Keegan did not break the law that day, but he used it to his advantage to the extreme,
especially when it came to matters regarding Stella. Carter smiled as he thought about the incident.
"What are you smiling about?’ Keegan glanced at him and asked. Carter put his fist against his lips and coughed
lightly. "Nothing. I just think that this divorce wasn't really fair on you.'
Keegan kept quiet.
One of the reasons why he did not call the police immediately was that he wanted to convict him of extortion.
Another was that it was not the right time to mess with Albert.
Dealing with Albert was easy, but Stella was still investigating the car accident that happened back then. Keegan
knew that Albert would not have come up with a plan like this because he was a coward. There was a high chance
that Hylda helped him during the process. If Albert went to jail due to extortion, there was no guarantee that he
would not try to protect Hylda for the sake of his children.
'Intentional homicide is much more serious than extortion. Albert may not plead guilty without solid proof. This
might even cause their relationship to be closer than before. So, it's not the right time to deal with Albert,' thought
Keegan.
After Aldor had transferred the 50 million dollars into the blackmailer's account, Keegan received an email that
said, [Why did you send only half of the requested amount?]

[I want to see you destroy the pictures,] Keegan replied.
[Transfer the money, and I will send it to you immediately.]
[Send me the video first.]
The other party became impatient. [Stop fooling around, boy. If I don't receive the money within an hour, I’m going
to leak these pictures all over the internet!]
[Fine by me. I'm done with my ex-wife. If you want to make things public, go for it. I’m sure I can catch you in the
country,] Keegan replied calmly.
Keegan was in control of the situation after confirming that the other party was Albert. Albert did all this just to
make some money. He did not actually want to publish the photos. The downfall of Stella's reputation would bring
him no good.
The other party did not respond after that. On the other end of the computer, Albert was looking at the 50 million
dollars in his account. His hands were shaking with excitement. He did not expect to get the money so easily.
