Chapter 2252


    Chapter 2252


    The angrier Kael grew, the calmer Thalia became.


    With her life literally in her own hands, no matter how much the man taunted her, she acted as if she


    hadn’t heard a thing.


    Holding on until the director arrived with help was all she had to do to win this silent battle.


    After finding Balfour, Margot stopped crying altogether. She wiped her tears away and followed Balfour


    and the others in search of Thalia.


    Noticing Margot’s change of demeanor, Balfour’s impatience slightly subsided.


    Had she continued sobbing, he might have to instruct her to stay in ce. What good would she be if


    she only cried?


    If Margot truly wanted to save her friend, she needed to get her act together and join them in a


    meticulous search.


    It would be an added bonus if they could find evidence of the culprits on the first go!


    “Did anyone check her dressing room?” he asked.


    Colton felt awkward.


    They hadn’t considered Diana to be a suspect, so why would they have searched her dressing room for


    evidence?


    Their silence spoke volumes, and Balfour didn’t press further; he’d expected as much.


    Margot, regaining herposure, said, “I noticed something was off with Thalia right after she came


    from Diana’s dressing room. But Thalia never actually went inside; she just stood at the entrance. I


    remember now! It was you, director, who asked her to go fetch Diana.”


    Colton grew pale at the thought that his oversight could cost a life.


    “Quick! The most dangerous ce is often the safest. Diana might have stashed evidence in her


    dressing room,” Colton urged, ready to lead the search party.


    However, Balfour shook his head slightly. “What’s most important now isn’t finding evidence; it’s


    locating your crew member. If we find her, we can at least prove that Dia and her gangid hands on


    her, obtaining part of the evidence. Otherwise, if something happens… it’ll be a dead end.”


    A dead end!


    Margot covered her mouth to stifle her sobs.


    They had no clue which direction to search, scurrying like mice without a single lead.


    “Do you remember what Thalia said on the phone? It was herst call, so it must have been crucial.


    That’s why she reached out to you. Think hard. Your best friend’s fate lies in your hands.


    Balfour wasn’t trying to scare Margot.


    Given Thalia’s cautious and timid nature, he couldn’t fathom why she’d take such a risk to call during a


    life-threatening moment unless she intended to share the location of the evidence or her whereabouts


    with Margot.


    “I… I can’t remember,” Margot said in distress. “All I recall is Thalia breathing heavily, as if someone


    was chasing her. There was a howling wind, it sounded like she was outside.”


    The men frowned in unison, waiting for her to give them a lead.

    The producer chimed in, “Based on what you said, could she be in the mountains? But why would she


    think to go there?”


    They were at a loss. What kind of evidence would be in the mountains? Or was her hideout in the


    nearby mountains?


    But there were plenty of mountains around.


    Margot asked in agony, “Can’t we just call out Thalia’s name as we climb the mountain? Otherwise, by


    the time we get there, she might be colder than a Thanksgiving turkey.”


    Balfour shot her a look, “If you want to keep your friend from meeting her maker, keep quiet.”
