Chapter 586 Bill’s goal

After the Shimmering Sea team exorcised the evil spirits, the basement has been “cleaned”, and the people of the newspaper office have gradually settled down.

Although the shadow of Levi’s tragic death still lingers in people’s hearts, the newspaper office has basically returned to normal operation.

From an operational point of view, after this ominous incident, the “Evening Lighthouse” was only suspended for one issue, and it seems that the impact is relatively small.

However, only Sean and Norton knew that this incident happened during the advertising bombardment period, and the negative news that spread like wildfire eventually offset the advertising effect of the last two days, so that the daily sales of the evening paper stayed at 36,000 copies.

Sean’s original plan to join the 50,000-day sales club was dashed.

I don’t know if it was intentional or just luck, but the date Bill framed him was too subtle.

Although it has not reached the level of serious damage, it will definitely delay the progress of Sean’s expansion.

This is what makes Sean the most angry. Therefore, he also strengthened his determination to carry out reciprocal revenge.

So, he temporarily put aside the affairs of the newspaper office, handed over the full management to Norton, and began to devote himself to the affairs with Bill.

Norton’s ability is outstanding in the entire New Testament industry, and Sean knows that even if he lets go for a while, he can create good results.

However, the investigation into Bill has encountered certain challenges.

After the incident at the Brooklyn Bridge subway station, perhaps out of a guilty conscience, the two bodyguards of the explorers around Bill, Sleepless Midnight and Holy Night Executioner, obviously strengthened their defenses.

For Sean, the best way to find out about Bill’s contacts and near-term goals is to eavesdrop.

However, the birds that were arranged by Ivan and stayed near Bill, although they were far enough away to not be discovered by the two explorers, had no chance to monitor anyway—they used esoteric settings every time. The barrier, the anti-eavesdropping specification has reached the level of politicians.

So in the beginning, Sean and the others could only collect some peripheral information that pointed to unknown points.

When the investigation encountered difficulties, it was Moonlight who solved the problem.

A well-known musician in New York City, he allows himself the “accidental” opportunity to play piano at Bill’s weekly party in his mansion.

His excellent piano skills won applause from the guests and added color to the host’s face, so he was favored by Bill, which gave him the opportunity to get close contact.

After attending Bill’s party twice, Moonlight has been able to stand beside Bill with a champagne glass as a “guest of honor” and interact with some “socialites”.

In this tormenting occasion for Moonlight, the pianist learned a lot of useful information.

First of all, to everyone’s surprise in Sean, among the people who attended Bill’s “Long Island Party”, there were no real top people.

Those who came were all middle-class and above, or “upstarts” without a backstage, and those who were no longer in the center of the stage, but were still keen on this kind of social place.

The real predators seem to disdain this occasion.

Disdain “Long Island Bill’s Party”.

This detail seems small, but to a certain extent outlines Bill’s social status—

He has a fortune and a reputation for hospitality…

But it doesn’t seem to be accepted by those real powerful people.

Although it is more or less sympathetic to the flashy bubbles and spoofing around Bill, it also reveals a very important thing: the possibility of offending the forces behind him by punishing Bill has been minimized.

At least from now on, Bill is a “bachelor”, a “nouveau riche” who has not been able to squeeze into the real upper circle, a person who has made a lot of money…

“Poor”.

This situation also seems to explain Bill’s behavior pattern.

Why is he so greedy, earning every penny…

Why does he have to spend a lot of money to hold a party at his home every week…

He knows what he has and what he lacks, and he is using what he thinks is right to try to make up for that lack.

It is undeniable that his efforts still played a role. At least, the name “Long Island Bill” once fooled the “inexperienced” Sean.

On the other hand, Moonlight also learned a very important piece of information.

Bill has recently repeatedly expressed his admiration for a woman in social situations.

Holding a glass of wine, he bluntly said to the guests and friends: The reason why such parties are held again and again is just to wait for the lady’s patronage.

That lady is a famous philanthropist in the New Testament – Ms. Tarot.

When he heard the news, Sean’s eyes widened slightly.

He suddenly remembered a scene he had seen.

It was in Daisy’s office, and the news on TV was broadcasting Ms. Tarrow’s charity.

At that time, Bill’s eyes stared straight at the screen, staring straight at the rich man’s widow.

Slightly narrowed eyes, as if seeing prey.

He really wanted to “pursue” Ms. Tarot?

It’s like the current runs through the circuit, and Sean feels that he suddenly understands Bill’s intention.

This “upstart” who can’t squeeze into the upper class no matter how hard he tries, plans to change his path in order to be reborn as a gentleman of a certain celebrity’s wife.

In this way, he will not only have the possibility to obtain a wealth that is more amazing than what he has, but also, he will also obtain the coveted status…

Even though it is conceivable to endure all kinds of criticism, it is estimated that he has already weighed it.

Taro is a real dignitary. As someone in the news industry, Sean knew that some reporters had photographed her entering and leaving the legendary “Cloud Summit” – an anecdotal rumour, that the reception controlled the lifeline of the entire New York and even half of Newlander, where Newlander was displayed. In the territory of Seoul, such as a capital empire made of steel. Another giant hand other than theocracy.

Approaching and capturing her heart is Bill’s plan to improve his social status.

In addition to these, Sean also learned about Bill’s recent progress:

He seems to have invited Ms. Tarot to the party a long time ago, but the other party declined for various reasons.

The reason must be very simple. On the one hand, although Bill is far from notorious, it is difficult for a single woman who values ​​reputation to convince herself to attend such a turbulent social occasion.

Because the topic that came up was probably not what people like Tarot wanted.

On the other hand, I am afraid it is still inseparable from Bill’s status.

But recently, the Long Island upstart has attached a man who is crucial to the plan—the owner of Donald Brewery, UUkanshu www.uukanshu. com Mr. Eric Donald.

Almost everyone knows that the late Mr. Tarot had a great kindness to Donald. He was one of Mr. Tarot’s most loyal friends during his lifetime.

And after his death, this gentleman who already had a family has been meticulously and proportionately protecting and taking care of Mrs. Tarot.

Having a good relationship with him means that it is no longer impossible to invite Ms. Tarot to a party.

Besides, Bill knew that Tarot, who has been devoted to charity, has been appealing for donations on various occasions.

Bill seems to have made it clear to Donald that he wants to help Tarrow’s charitable cause—even holding a charity-themed fundraiser at the Long Island Mansion…

It seems that Bill will soon realize his first plan – getting to know Ms. Tarot.

In response to this information, Sean also found the “subject matter” of reciprocal revenge.

For Sean Dickinson, his career is the Evening Beacon.

For Bill, his “career” is obviously to hook up with the widow of the rich…

Since Bill was targeting his own business, destroying Bill’s plan to establish a relationship with Ms. Tarrow is obviously the most suitable revenge.

Of course, Sean’s pursuit of results isn’t just about making Bill fail.

More importantly, he wanted to chill his heart and soul, and hurried away when he saw the name “Sean Dickinson”.

So, according to this purpose, Sean formulated a countermeasure plan.

However, what he didn’t expect was that on the night when the plan was implemented, he would reunite with a person he hadn’t seen for a long time.
