Chapter 122
“It’s definitely her! She must have wanted us to embarrass ourselves in public!” said Eunice with gritted teeth. Eunice was in so much pain that her expression looked absolutely ghastly.
Charmine faced everyone’s gaze head-on, a look of understanding crossing over her face. She began to understand why Tiffany had decided to participate in the Auto Show. Tiffany had a hidden agenda all along. The current situation where all of the models were poisoned and yet she was unharmed would mean that all suspicions would land on her…
However, Charmine kept a straight face and responded to the crowd, saying, “Before pointing the finger at me, I would ask that you provide some evidence. Otherwise, I have the right to sue you for defamation!” Her clear voice commanded a strong presence.
The audience gasped in surprise. Tiffany frowned and said weakly, “My sister is right, we can’t accuse her without any proof. I know my sister, she’s not the kind of person who would do such a thing.” After saying that, Tiffany turned to look at Anthony and Mr. Dalmore, “Mr. Bailey, Mr. Dalmore, a t the moment, all the staff involved in this event are present. It would be best to investigate the matter now while everyone is still here.
“We ate the strawberries pretty recently so there might still be a chance that we can find evidence of the container used to carry the drug or perhaps even other clues that could lead to something. Please, would you start right away… Cough… Get the police to investigate so that we can prove my sister’s innocence.” She was clearly in excruciating pain but still fought through the pain to plead on Charmine’s behalf.
Veronica hurried to her side and supported her while saying, “ Tiffany, you shouldn’t try to speak. What’s important right now is for you to conserve your strength!”
Charmine almost rolled her eyes at the sight. Tiffany’s pitiful acting was like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. It made her feel disgusted. However, this time it looked like her trick might succeed in killing two birds with one stone. She would be harming Charmine and gaining the other models’ goodwill.

Kelly’s agent chipped in by saying, “That’s right, get the police involved. We need to get to the bottom of this and find the person who poisoned my Kelly!”
“We must find the culprit who wronged us!” said another.
“The incident happened at the Auto Show. If you do not hire people to investigate the matter clearly, our fans will destroy you! Don’t you dare attempt to protect the culprit!” This last sentence was said by Eunice toward Anthony. She could see that Anthony treated Charmine with special care.
Anthony’s expression turned cold and he said with a dark and serious face, “I’ll invite the police to conduct their investigations but not because of your threats. It’s simply uncovered, we’ll catch the true perpetrator.” His chilling gaze swept past Tiffany before he noticed Luke Reed, his assistant, standing beside him. Luke immediately picked up his phone to lodge a police report.
Tiffany felt a shiver go down her back. She had always felt that Anthony’s piercing eyes could see through her like an x-ray, revealing all her secrets and innermost thoughts. If Anthony discovered that it was her… ‘No, no! There’s no way he could have figured it out!’ she thought to herself. 2 This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
She knew that her plan this time was absolutely perfect, completely flawless. She had been meticulously preparing for several days, so there was no way that she would have left behind any shred of evidence! Even if the police arrived, they would not be able to find evidence incriminating her. Everything they found would point to Charmine.
‘Charmine, just you wait. Enjoy rotting in jail!’ Tiffany smirked on the inside. On the outside, she used her pain as a mask to hide her panic as she lowered her head and pretended t o be ill. ·
Once the police report was made, everyone sat around waiting. The hospital staff had sent over some pain medication and the supermodels had some each. Not much time had passed before the police arrived. They began their meticulous investigation both backstage and in the main hall. Everyone who had been i n contact with the strawberries was a prime suspect. Furthermore, they even used test strips on everyone’s fingertips to discover if there were any traces of the poison left behind. Unfortunately, all their efforts were for nothing.
At that moment, Veronica blurted, “Charmine should be investigated as well! She was the first person to touch the strawberries. She had a great opportunity to poison them…”
“Veronica! Stop talking!” Tiffany frantically rushed to drag her back. Tiffany then turned to the crowd and said, “Don’t listen to her, she’s speaking a bunch of nonsense and making wild assumptions. My sister is really not the kind of person who would do this. She isn’t a suspect, hence she wouldn’t need to be investigated…” (This Novel Daily Latest Chapters provide it www.InfoBagh.Com)
“Since she was in contact with the strawberries, we should carry out the test,” Officer Ryan said while he walked toward Charmine with a test strip in his hand. Charmine had a bad feeling about this…
