But he had always been in the retail market. He knew that if he wanted to become a predator, he must get the support of the royal family, so the first thing he had to do was to get some rare diamonds. Gradually, he accumulated a large amount of money, so he started learning to invest in mines as many diamond dealers do, and in this way, he got to know Tuell.
Tuell was enthusiastic and liked to make friends, while Alston knew that Tuell was an able man in South Africa, so he asked his help to get more valuable diamonds as well as some diamond mines.
In the beginning, Tuell tried his best to help him, and Alston acquired many priceless jewels with his help. Gradually, his products attracted many Royal customers.
However, once Alston drunkenly flirted with Tuell's wife, Tuell stopped helping him.
Naturally, Alston didn't want to give up his money tree, so he apologized to Tuell after waking up the next day. Though Tuell forgave his ridiculous behavior, he began to be on guard around him, and he would urge his wife not to come to the store when Alston came around each time.
At that time, Tuell had collected many rare rough diamonds, and Alston began to have some evil ideas about these rough diamonds. He tried to persuade Tuell to sell these on the market through his company so that they could be in a mutually beneficial situation. However, Tuell declined his proposal because the jewels were his wife's favorite, especially that blue-green diamond, so he would never sell them.
Alston had no choice but to give up, and Tuell thought he must have abandoned his idea. Unexpectedly, the tragedy occurred one night.
It was a stormy night, and Tuell had gone outside to collect a rare gem. He couldn't get back that night, but he learned there would be another heavy rain in Cape Town, so he called his wife to close the diamond store early. His wife followed his orders, and they even chatted for a while on the phone. It sounded like everything was ordinary as usual. It was not until Tuell went back in the next day that he found that something had gone wrong in the store.
His diamond store had been looted, and his neighbors reported it to the police, so many policemen were in his store when he arrived. There was even a picket line outside.
He saw his dead wife and son lying there quietly, and the police told him that the robbers had entered the diamond shop at two in the morning. His son's time of death was earlier than his wife's, which indicated that his son was killed first. When the police told him of his wife's death, the police officer's face was heavy and dark. He told Tuell that his wife had been assaulted before her death, but they couldn't find any clues from her female organs because the murderer was obviously afraid of leaving evidence, so he cut off the organ.
Hearing this, Tuell almost went crazy.
In the end, the police handed him a cufflink that was found in his wife's hands. It was assumed to be torn off the murderer as he committed the crime against his wife. Tuell had seen this cufflink before on Alston, but it was not unique in the world, so the police couldn't judge from the cufflink who the murderer was.
But it was not difficult to find his lost diamond since there was a laser code engraved on the diamond in his store, so police retrieved most of the lost diamonds and arrested the related suspects. There were three people involved in the case, and all of them were locals in South Africa. They insisted that they were convinced to commit the crimes at the sight of the diamonds, and there was no evil mastermind, but they also hadn't assaulted his wife.
It suddenly turned into a pending case. Though the police had declared the case closed, they hadn't found the person who assaulted his wife in the end.
Tuell thought it must have been Alston, and those three people were hired by him. After some time, when Tuell saw on the TV that Alston's England Glamour Diamond company had launched a priceless diamond, he finally ensured that the murderer was Alston. Tuell couldn't wait to kill him.
That diamond belonged to Tuell. Alston had liked it very much at that time, but he couldn't get it from Tuell. Tuell entered his company through an acquaintance and got to know that Alston owned many rare diamonds that he had collected over many years. Of course, Alston didn't get the blue-green diamond he had longed for because it was hidden in Tuell's house, not far away from his store on that fateful night.
In this way, Tuell finally found out who the real murderer was, but those rare rough diamonds had never been displayed before the public, and most people did not know of their existence. They had just been knocked into the coffer without being polished or engraved with a laser code. They looked like ordinary stones, so he couldn't give any evidence to the police to prove that Alston was the murderer.
Therefore, from that day on, the only desire driving him to live was vengeance. He had to take revenge on him and tried to avoid the police to seek justice for his wife as well as his son. He didn't believe that Alston would always be lucky.
"Over the years, I have watched the England Glamour Diamond company expand and develop, relying on my rough stones, and it even got support from the royal family. I have been waiting for a chance to enact my revenge on him." He smoked his cigarette, and there was a thin layer of cigarette ash on the ground as his eyes looked dreary. The next second, there was faint light glinting in his eyes. "Finally, I got the chance. Alston came back to South Africa again. He thought I wouldn't be there anymore, and he thought the wrongdoing he had done could be forgotten. No. I was going to destroy him and take everything he had!"
"So it was you who killed Alston, right?" Irish asked abruptly.
