“What makes you so sure?”

Linda’s right-hand man was puzzled.
Mnie saw the curious look on Linda’s face, and exined, “When Adam lost his temperst night and you scolded Mr. Wright
in front of everyone, he smelled only of tobo. Not this brand of cologne that he was wearing just now.
“| suppose it''s because he must have been very busy preparing for the show over the past few days, and didn’t bother with his
usual luxuries.
“When you called him and Kelly over to exin themselves, | paid close attention and noticed that he hadn’t applied any cologne
at that time. However, | also noticed a faint smell of cologne after he queued up. He’s smarter than Kelly, and used only a little to
create the impression that he had applied the cologne much earlier on.
“But no matter how faint the scent is, a professional will be able to pick up the top note mixed with a bit of the middle note instead
of the base note, which should be present had he applied the
cologne much earlier on.”
“Impressive!”
Linda’s right-hand man couldn''t hold back his praise. “So when you deliberately dered that the smell lingering on the safe was
not just that of perfume but also tobo, you already suspected
him at that point?”
Mnie nodded.
Linda looked relieved. “He’s certainly a prime suspect. He always looks so timid working for me over the years, but now he
decided to go all out in betraying me!”
After a moment''s pause, Linda instructed her right-hand man, “Make sure your men are alert enough! Follow Mr. Wright to find
Sun and Moon. Don''t alert him to our movements!”
“Yes, Miss!”
Linda’s right-hand man took on the task and turned to look at Mnie with newfound respect in his eyes. “Miss Mnie, do you
need to sniff out the rest of the crowd?”
“We''ll continue,” Mnie said.
“Haven''t we already confirmed that it''s Mr. Wright?” the right-hand man said, confused.

“Ms. Yancey said earlier that Mr. Wright worked for her for so many years. Although it looks like he betrayed her, I’m sure he
nted some spies in Ms. Yancey’s team. It''ll be good for us to take this chance to identify all of them,” Mnie exined.
Linda nodded with a smile. “It’s tough on you.”
Mnie shook her head with a smile.
After checking through over a hundred staff members, Mnie identified a few key suspects. All of them recently applied
perfume, of which three of them used the same brand of fragrance and even applied simr amounts. It was likely that none of
them had perfume with them, and they borrowed from the same person to help cover things up.
“Go and take a rest. | asked someone to prepare a room for you,” Linda said to Mnie.
Mnie stood up, and suddenly felt a wave of nausea. She covered her mouth with her hand, and started to dry—heave.
Annie hurriedly walked over to her to hold her steady. “How are you feeling?”
Linda sighed. “Seems like you''re really exhausted. Bring her to the room. I''ll have someone stew some soup for her and will
send it over to her soon.”
Annie nodded, and helped Mnie to the room to lie down. Worried, sheined, “I saw you pushing yourself just now. |
knew that there was no use trying to talk you out of it, but there really was no need for you to sniff out so many people! What if
something untoward happened to you?”
“The theft of a jewelry collection meant for the finale of this show is a huge blow to Ms. Yancey. | must help her. What''s more,
she suddenly wanted to coborate with me. It is critical for partners to be evenly matched. | must seize this chance to prove my
worth,” Mnie exined.
She went on tofort Annie with a smile, “I know my limits. | won''t bite off more than | can chew.”From N?velDrama.Org.
Very soon, one of Linda’s subordinates came in with two bowls of nutritious soup, apanied with a slip of paper indicating the
list of ingredients used in the soup.
Annie looked through it, and said to Mnie, “They are all ingredients suitable for pregnantdies to consume...*.
Mnie sipped on the refreshing and tasty soup, unsurprised. “I could sense her taking care of me when we chatted yesterday.”
She told Annie softly about her suspicions-that Linda was the mother of that little boy.
Annie eximed in hushed tones, “Ms. Yancey is such an amazing woman. How could she

“The possibility of Harlow forcing himself upon Ms. Yancey is as low as her fancying him,” Mnie corrected. “Something
unknown must have happened between them back then, thereby resulting in a child between them—an intellectually challenged
child, to boot...”
One hourter. Linda’s right-hand man came to Mnie’s room and knocked softly on the door.
“Miss Mnie, Miss Snow. Ms. Yancey is asking if you’ve rested enough. She wants you toe
over.”
“We''ll head over soon,” Mnie said as she sat up on the bed.
