Chapter 26: Planning Far Ahead
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Kimberly returned to the villa and found that Andrew and Jennifer were already sitting on the sofa, leisurely enjoying afternoon snacks.
“You’re back?” Andrew pointed at the small cake on the dessert table and invited them to taste it. “This one tastes good, that one has a very strange taste.”
“You didn’t go?”
“Well…” Jennnifer lifted the corner of her skirt and showed them her ankle which was covered with bandages. She apologized in embarrassment, “It’s all my fault.”
“She sprained her ankle halfway. What a pity.” Andrew sighed with regret. “She just missed it.”
Kimberly did not know whether he was referring to the camping or the farce, but according to James, it was the latter.
“But why are you back?” Jennifer looked behind them curiously and asked, “Why haven’t I seen Keith?”
Kimberly simply recounted the incident but hid the reason why Keith was looking for her. She concluded in a cold voice, “I’m afraid he has already been carried away by the ambulance.”
“So dangerous… ? Isn’t this variety show too sloppy to take our safety seriously?” Jennifer patted her chest with lingering fear. Fortunately, she had sprained her ankle halfway, or else she would have been bitten by a snake.
Kimberly was very interested in Andrew’s identity. After all, what she wanted to do next was not convenient through normal channels. Since Keith had chosen to cheat, he should be punished as he deserved.
However, how to talk to Andrew was also a problem. On the surface, he seemed to be warmer and kinder than anyone else, but Kimberly could feel the deep coldness hidden under him.
The phone in her hand suddenly vibrated. She turned it on and saw that it was a message from James.
[James said, “I’ll go up first later. The three of us will meet in your room.”]
How did this person know what I was thinking…Kimberly couldn’t help but look at James and wonder if the ending would be different if she had met him in her previous life.
The three of them came to the third floor after making their excuses. The staff were busy because of Keith, so they didn’t follow them. It was still uncertain whether they could continue filming after this incident.
“Are we going to have a meeting? What’s it about?” Andrew walked around the room excitedly. He picked up the small lamp on the bedside table and exclaimed, “This night lamp is so exquisite. No wonder it’s the master bedroom. My room is like a slum.”
James sat on the recliner and glanced at Kimberly, indicating that she could start.
“Ahem.” Kimberly clapped her hands, reminding Andrew to focus. Then, she began to tell them about her and Keith. “I guess Keith initially intended to harm me. Although I don’t know how he planned to do it, it definitely wasn’t snakes. Because at that moment, I saw his panic and fear. It was definitely not a lie. He doesn’t have such acting skills. He probably intended to push me down. I think it was his assistant who did it.”
“Assistant? George Carter?” Andrew asked curiously
“What news did you get in advance?” James pointed to the pistol at his waist.
Andrew waved his hand, “I just got the news that someone transported a few snakes to the mountain overnight. I don’t know who did it. I passed you the pistol for your self defense, I’ve also prepared a batch of antidotes as I’m worried that something might happen.”
“Do you know George Carter?” Kimberly asked.
“I did some research on everyone before I came here.” Andrew waved his phone around and said with a smile, “Do you want to add me on wechat to share the information with you?”
“…” Kimberly couldn’t hold back her curiosity in the end, and also the thought of saving 15,000 dollars made her decide to be added on wechat.
The main reason was to find out about the situation as soon as possible, not because she didn’t have the money to pay the 15,000 dollars.
However, when she saw the information in the next second, her face turned serious. George Carter used to work in Director John’s studio, but he had changed jobs to become Keith’s assistant.
“From high to low? Wait, two years ago?” Kimberly realized that was the time when she and Keith was dating, and the thought of it made her feel horrified. She didn’t expect them to start planning so long ago.
“Huh? What’s wrong?” James saw the lingering fear on Kimberly’s face and got up from his chair to pass her a bottle of water.
