Chapter 930
It only took three hours for the world to cancel Yolanda Fenley. It was so fast that Stella thought it was magic. Soon,
news of Yolanda's tax fraud popped up on every social media platform for the whole day.
Yolanda finally got to experience being famous but for the wrong reasons. After the collapse of Yolanda Fenley,
more and more of her dirt got exposed. For example, it was revealed that Yolanda deliberately bullied the
newcomers in her film crew. Another instance was when she interfered with someone's marriage and became a
homewrecker.
There were even leaked photos of Yolanda getting in bed with other male celebrities. She also got exposed for her
long-term use of illegal drugs.
However, there was no official notice regarding the banned narcotics, so it was unclear whether it was true. On the
other hand, the leaked photos were going around the internet like crazy. They were so erotic that they almost

The people behind Motives for Murder followed suit and kicked Yolanda out of the cast. Thus, her stardom was over.
Shortly after that, the authorities reported that two large-scale gambling dens had been seized, and several people
were arrested for the use of drugs. What shocked the netizens was that Yoven Brown, a well-known entrepreneur in
Rivera, was suspected to be the owner of the two casinos.
Further investigation showed that Yoven was responsible for taking away people's life. An accident occurred in the
coal mine he operated more than 20 years ago. When the mine rescue team arrived at the scene, he tried to avoid
responsibility by withholding the number of people who went down the mine. He delayed the rescue, and seven
miners were buried alive.
The victims' families did not get to retrieve the bodies of their loved ones, nor did they get any compensation. They
also had no way to appeal their case for more than 20 years.
After Yoven Brown's arrest, the matter was brought up again to the netizens. This time, a survivor came forward
and revealed that sixteen people had entered that mine. When the incident happened, Yoven joined forces with a
few local authorities and pressured the survivors into staying silent. All of them were afraid, so they pretended to
know nothing to protect themselves.
More and more survivors joined in and reported the incident immediately afterward. After twenty long years of
petitioning, many family members of the seven victims were either old or gone. Every one of the families had lived
in misery for decades, especially since they lost their main labor force.
The case caused a big stir on the internet, and it almost reached worldwide news. The netizens were in an uproar,
voting for a retrial of the case. With pressure from the public, the officials set up a task force to go to the location
of the coal mine for an investigation. The local police teamed up with the firefighters to conduct a second
excavation at the site of the accident after a lapse of 20 years. However, this time, they were excavating the
victims' remains.
Due to the national attention, they dug up the first remains two days later. Then came the second, the third, and so

the area.
Several officials involved in the disaster were questioned, and Yoven Brown was brought to justice. The case
shocked the entire nation, and the local government restored the seven victims' graves to pay tribute to them.
Many media reporters rushed to the scene that day and broadcasted the entire memorial service live.
Stella was busy filming, but she watched the broadcast whenever she had the time. The families of the seven
victims received donations from the public in addition to the compensation from the officials.
One of the community members, who wished to remain anonymous, donated 10 million dollars to fund the
education of the victims' descendants. Each of them could apply for scholarships up to 50 thousand dollars per year
with their student ID. The donor wrote some words on a piece of paper and had someone send it to the scene. It
read, (May the dead rest in peace, and may their souls find their way home.]
Stella paused when she saw that and hurriedly took a screenshot. She stared at the words on her screen and
furrowed her brows. 'Why does this look like Keegan's handwriting?'
Just as she was thinking about it, Keegan sent her a text. [What time are you getting off work today?] [The director
said 6, but you know him,] Stella returned to her senses and replied.
