To avoid getting Bella in trouble, Steven didn't hesitate to confess to the police and sign a confession letter after Hunter approached him.

Hunter dealt with it discreetly, without even informing James about it. It was truly a swift and decisive move, catching Bella and Justin completely off guard. Justin embraced the trembling young woman firmly, glaring at Hunter's smug face. "Hunter, what despicable method did you use to make Steven confess?!" "Despicable? Me? Mr. Salvador, you're personally attacking me here. I can't take such slander. You owe me compensation for psychological damages." Hunter rubbed his chest, the smug look on his face betraying his facade. "It's the police's job to interrogate the suspects. I'm just a humble lawyer. I don't have that kind of authority. Steven made those statements, and those fingerprints belong to him. I didn't force him to do anything. It was all voluntary."

"Hunter, even if evil triumphs over good, eventually the consequences of your own actions will come back to haunt you. Don't think you've truly won until the very last moment."

Bella's beautiful eyes turned red. She gripped Justin's hand tightly, as if holding on to it was the only way she could maintain her crumbling sanity. "As long as I am alive, you will never win."

"Then I'll just have to wait and see how you plan to win, Ms. Thompson. Don't make me wait too long." Hunter spoke with a sly smile. He was the epitome of a wolf in sheep's clothing. No matter their tactics and plans, there was always a flaw.

The flaw was that Hunter was actually Steven's brother. They had grown up together. Despite their very different personalities, one thing was clear: Hunter, being the older brother, really knew his younger sibling inside out.
