“I’m going back to Bloomstead tomorrow,” Matthew Kings said to Eleanor Gomez, “Thank you for accompanying Roni these past few days.”
There were still matters that needed to be taken care of at the company, so he couldn’t stay in Lothen for too long. Eleanor Gomez raised her slender fingers and brushed her bangs aside, smiling, “It’s nothing, just remember to reimburse your daily expenses.”
“Of course,” Matthew Kings readily agreed. He trusted Eleanor Gomez completely, and she was wise and decisive. Having her by Veronica Murphy’s side was undoubtedly a good thing.
Listening to her words, Veronica Murphy teased, “With your billions of wealth, being so thrifty and frugal doesn’t seem like your style.”
When he left the hidden clan, Dominik Ledger gave Eleanor Gomez 1.5 billion, which was equivalent to 500 million RMB. She could be considered a true wealthy beauty.
“With my wealth, how can I compare to you, honey? I can’t let any opportunity for profit slip away,” she laughed.
Veronica Murphy was amused, “You’ve only been in Bloomstead for a short time, but you’re learning the local dialect pretty quickly.”
The group returned to the hospital, Veronica Murphy completed the discharge procedures, and then went to a hotel near the film and television city to book a few Presidential Suites.
While Eleanor Gomez and Veronica Murphy were chatting in one room, Matthew Kings was in the next room asking Troy Ritter, “How did the investigation go regarding the matter I asked you to look into yesterday?”
Troy Ritter shook his head, “I couldn’t find any information about the four people that Lady Mia dealt with. There is indeed someone in the crew who tampered with things. I caught someone, and they claimed that it was all instructed by Mia Stuart in secret.”
“Mia Stuart?” Matthew Kings questioned Troy Ritter’s investigation results, “Are you sure it’s her?”
“Based on my current investigation, all the evidence points to Mia Stuart,” Troy Ritter cautiously answered. Although their boss suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes was Eviette Robins, there was currently no evidence pointing to her.
“Understood,” Matthew Kings responded and turned to go to the next room. In the room, Eleanor Gomez and Veronica Murphy were chatting happily. When she saw him walk in, Eleanor Gomez immediately stood up politely, “You two continue talking, I’m tired. I’ll go back to my room and rest for a while.”
Matthew Kings looked at her, a slight curve forming on his thin lips. He nodded slightly but didn’t say anything.
“Don’t worry, go ahead and sleep. We’ll call you for dinner later,” Veronica Murphy said. Eleanor Gomez leaned on her cane, waved goodbye, and left the suite. After she left, the room became quiet.
Matthew Kings raised his slender fingers and unbuttoned his suit, casually throwing it on the sofa. He turned and walked over to Veronica Murphy, bending down to feel her forehead. “Hmm, the fever has gone down.”
“You had an IV drip, of course the fever went down,” Veronica Murphy looked up at him and said, “You didn’t sleep all night last night, let me accompany you for a while.”
After a sleepless night, he looked a bit haggard, with a hint of stubble on his chin. She couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for him.
Matthew Kings loosened his tie and sat down next to her. “Roni, you said yesterday… that Eviette Robins tampered with the props on the set?”
He suddenly asked about what happened yesterday. However, when he spoke, Matthew Kings did not realize that his expression was serious, his eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes filled with confusion and puzzlement.
Veronica Murphy stared into his deep, bottomless black eyes, her mind racing as she analyzed his subtle expressions and thoughts.
“Yesterday…”
She pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “Have you already investigated what happened yesterday? What were the results?”
Since he brought it up, there must be some results.
However…
Judging from his expression, Eviette Robins had probably “eliminated” all traces.
“I had Troy Ritter investigate, and the evidence pointed to Mia Stuart,” Matthew Kings didn’t intend to hide anything, nor did he want to manipulate Veronica Murphy’s words with other reasons. He straightforwardly asked her, “You said you have evidence pointing to Eviette Robins. Can you tell me what that evidence is?”
