Chapter 1274


    “No, really, there’s no need!” Desiree gritted her teeth and red at Lina.


    She finally understood what was going on. It seemed that Lena had instructed those children, but they


    actually took orders from Lina.


    Her motive was clear—she wanted to draw the police into the situation. If the police got involved, they


    would uncover the dark secrets of the Harpers’ charity foundation.


    Desiree seethed with anger but felt helpless against Lina. At this point, she could only find an excuse to


    escape.


    “Zuko, Lina, this is just a small matter. It doesn’t matter at all! Kids don’t know better. How could I hold it


    against them?”


    “But, Desiree…”


    “Enough, I won’t pursue this!” Desiree stood up abruptly and walked toward the exit. “I suddenly


    remembered that Grandma Janine has something to discuss with me today. I… I’ll go back first!”


    The police officers were left puzzled.


    “What’s the meaning of this? You want to report the incident one moment and decide to stop pursuing it


    the next. Do you think we’re making this trip for fun?”


    Zuko stepped forward, stopping the lead investigator with a cryptic smile.


    “There’s no rush,” he said. “The annual charity g of the Hamertons will be held three dayster. I’ll


    reserve seats for all of you!”


    –


    The Hamertons’ charity g was grand, with many celebrities in attendance. Thanks to the influence of


    Imperial Media, most of the prominent figures in the entertainment industry were present, including


    Abigail.


    As soon as the press saw her, adrenaline rushed through them. They held their cameras and


    microphones high, afraid to miss even a second of footage.


    Abigail’s status in the entertainment industry was undeniable. She was an artist under Imperial Media


    and had been chosen as the ambassador for the Thompson Group’s film studio. She was also friends


    with the Thompson heiress.

    “Comparison is really the source of misery. Some people are just born lucky. You can’t help but give it


    to her!”


    “Hmph! Nobody’s perfect!” Another reporter sneered. “What’s so great about her? It’s easy to find faults


    in her!”


    “What do you mean?”


    “Watch this!”


    Abigail spun on the red carpet and signed the autograph board. Her smile lit up the surroundings, and


    camera shes flickered.


    Suddenly, a grating voice came from the press area.


    “Ms. Fox, there are so many stars here tonight. Do you think they’re all the same as the ones who


    attended the opening ceremony of the film studio?”


    Abigail was taken aback by the question and did not know how to respond.


    “Ms. Fox, I heard that several veteran actors are still hospitalized. It’s all because of the poisoning


    incident at the previous event!”


    Abigail tried to maintain a polite smile. “What does that have to do with me? The police have already


    investigated that matter and caught the suspect—”


    “Almost everyone had some problems during the entire event, but you were not affected, Ms. Fox.”


    “You…”


    Abigail was instantly appalled.


    This incident had caused some controversy at the time, but it was suppressed under thebined


    pressure of Imperial Media and Sol Entertainment, thus not causing a bigger uproar.


    Despite theck of evidence, some people still believed that Abigail was the one who spiked the drinks


    and orchestrated the sinister plot.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .
