On the right side of the dining table, there were steaming dumplings, while on the left, there was a vegetable salad with a few scattered vegetables.

However, after filming ended, an assistant brought over a box lunch. Kimberly noticed his fingers trembled slightly.

She had seen this person beside Director John in her previous life. She did not expect him to be Keith’s assistant now? She recalled the news about the collaboration before the car accident and suddenly realized that she was able to link all the clues in her mind.

Keith Farmer, John Taylor, his assistant…Kimberly suppressed the guesses in her heart and finished the dinner.

“Do you have any plans after dinner?” Taking advantage of the time when the cameras were off, she could not be bothered to pretend to be a sweet and innocent person anymore. She crossed her legs and asked, “If not, I’ll go up first.”

Jennifer was shocked by her contrast, but looking around, it seemed that everyone was used to it.

Keith felt that the overbearing and capricious young lady that he was used to had finally returned. She did not have to worry about her not following the rules anymore.

“Alright, I’ll go up first. You guys do whatever you want.” Kimberly locked herself in the master bedroom after going up to the third floor. She checked if there were any pinhole cameras in the bedroom and made sure that it was safe before giving Helen a call.

“Hello, Helen? Is it convenient to talk? I have something private to ask you.”


“Yes, we’re already recording.”

Kimberly casually chatted for a while before getting to the main point.

“Do you know the assistant beside Keith?”

“No, it’s not that girl. It’s a different guy.”

“His name is George Carter? Do you know his background?”

“It’s arranged by the company. I understand. Thank you.”

“Bye-bye. I should be the one thanking you. Let’s meet again after I finish recording the show.”

Kimberly hung up the phone and walked into the bathroom to take a shower. She went through the clues in her mind while listening to the sound of the running water.

Using her fingers, she wrote the names of the people on the glass partition, and these names disappeared one by one as the glass misted over.

“John?” Kimberly murmured, “Could he be related… it seems that I still have to start with George Carter.”

However, at this time, she encountered the first difficulty of the investigation. Kimberly felt a headache when she saw that the private detective was asking for 20,000 dollars as investigation fee.

“I didn’t expect that I am stuck due to money again…” Kimberly first gave him the remaining 5,000 dollars as deposit and promised to pay the rest after the investigation was completed.

She put on a bathrobe and started to blow-dry her hair. When it was half-dry, she stopped and looked at her delicate skin in the mirror. She couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s so good to be young.”

The water droplets slid down her fingers and a faint smile spread in the bathroom.

“I hope that my salary will arrive early, or else I’ll have to sell my body.”

On the other side, George entered Keith’s room under the pretext of delivering something to him.

“The plan for tomorrow is to camp on the mountain. We’ve already made the arrangements.” George turned on his phone and showed him the photo. “It’s right here.”

“What?” Keith was a little panicked. With a trembling voice, he asked in disbelief, “Isn’t this against the law? If I’m discovered, I’ll be finished.”


George really looked down on this person who was a coward and could not achieve anything big. He hardened his voice and said, “Either you succeed, or you’ll be finished.”

“President Harrison is already pushing for it. It’s already been two years. We are about to succeed, and you’re doing this now? Let me tell you, this is your last chance.”

“What if we’re discovered? Will I not be an abandoned child? Do you think I’m stupid? If I succeed, I’ll die. If I fail, I’ll die even more.” For the first time, Keith regretted, he recalled how he had vowed to cooperate with President Harrison. It had been a trap from the very beginning.

“No, she will only fall because of a mistake. There won’t be any cameras in that area. I’ll also prepare an alibi for you in advance. As long as you trick her there, you don’t have to worry about anything else. I have already made the necessary arrangement.” George set the trap step by step. “Believe me, all you need to do is to lure her there. There won’t be any risk.”

“…” Keith knew that this was a trap, but he could only summon courage to do it. He hated Sean Harrison, who had forced him to this point, but he also hated Kimberly, who had turned her back on him. If she hadn’t changed her mind at the last minute, he would not have taken the risk.

“Okay, I understand. I will call her over at a suitable time tomorrow, but the rest will be up to you.”

The two of them left after discussing. Keith, who had an uncertain expression on his face, smashed the cup on the ground angrily after George left.

“I will definitely get back at them.”

“George, this lackey… and Kimberly, this flirtatious woman… all of you wait and see.”
