"Sorry, but can you say it again, Aland? Where are you going?"

Shannon's question, which was filled with indecision, made Aland pause for a moment, before finally providing the information about the Duke get from Pete.

"Since the beginning, I've been curious about Jill's case, Hun. And see, it's evident that your mum planned everything from the beginning. About Duke, how did she get a lawyer who was willing to help with Jill's secret case, who vanished on the way to take his client to move and certify the client's new identity? And how can Jill feel so innocent when she meets Duke's brother? One thing is for sure, Shannon. Your mum has her eye on everything. From the Reynolds' lawyer, to the lawyer's family, to where they live, to how to gain their sympathy without paying. And look. She's really on top of things in just over a year. After that, what else? Your dad's death. And I'm also sure your dad's death was deliberate on Jill's part. Just like my dad's death."
