As it turned out, Stella Lockwood easily cleared her name using the clues she herself had provided. Meanwhile, after his negotiations with the Easton Family fell through, Sean Quinn personally restored the video footage, successfully helping the police apprehend the true culprit.
For some reason, Jim Jagger couldn't shake the feeling that the whole smear campaign against Stella Lockwood might have been Sean Quinn's doing. The objective would have been to let Stella smoothly terminate her contract with Veridian without facing public backlash for being ungrateful and ditching them as soon as she got famous.
What mattered was that Sean Quinn had handled it with masterful precision. No one could tell he was helping Stella Lockwood make a clean getaway; not even he, the captain, could find a single shred of evidence.
Since everything had been executed flawlessly, Mr. Jagger decided to turn a blind eye and not probe any further.
