"Director Harris, it’s . A fan of Miss Grace Yowell sneaked into the Corporation and injured a female employee named Mabel Quinn. She has now been taken to the Hospital. Should we make some arrangements to prevent Miss Yowell from being implicated..." came the voice from the other end of the phone. The call was mainly about Grace Yowell’s issues, but Daniel Harris’s attention was solely focused on the name "Mabel Quinn."
"Which Hospital?" Daniel Harris’s voice suddenly became urgent.
"Ah? What?" The person on the other end didn’t react immediately.
"Which Hospital is Mabel Quinn in now?!" Daniel Harris’s voice grew more urgent and harsh.
The other person finally reported a Hospital name. The next moment, Daniel Harris rushed directly out of Grace Yowell’s Apartment Complex, leaving Grace standing there, stunned.
Grace Yowell glared angrily at the door that had just opened and closed. Daniel left her for Mabel Quinn, as if her heartfelt words just now had become a joke!
She wouldn’t let Mabel Quinn off easily! Mabel Quinn was in the Hospital? But that wasn’t enough; she wanted Mabel Quinn to suffer more!
Grace Yowell took out her phone and, using an anonymous account, posted a comment on her Weibo thread, "I was at the café yesterday. I personally saw a woman burn Grace with coffee. I heard that woman works at Morningstar, named Mabel Quinn. She even attended the press conference for Grace’s film ’Sound of the Wind’ before! I hope this woman dies soon. Doing such a thing is too excessive!"
After posting the comment, a cruel hatred flashed in Grace Yowell’s eyes, "Mabel Quinn, you forced me to do this. It’s all because of you! It’s your fault for appearing in front of Daniel and catching his attention. So, all of this is what you deserve!"
When Daniel Harris arrived at the Hospital, he only saw Mabel Quinn sitting on a patient rest chair in the Hospital’s emergency room, accompanied by a few employees from Morningstar.
Lavender Foster, the head of the screenwriting department, hurried over when she saw Daniel Harris, saying, "Director Harris, why are you here?"
"How is Mabel Quinn’s condition?" he asked. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel·fıre·net
"She’s only suffered some minor external injuries, fortunately not serious, just small injuries. The man who assaulted Mabel Quinn was also caught in time. He’s a crazy fan of Miss Yowell. He saw Miss Yowell’s post on Weibo, and coincidentally, this fan has a journalist friend, so he found out that it was Mabel Quinn who supposedly hurt Miss Yowell. That’s why he sneaked into the Corporation to stand up for Miss Yowell." Lavender Foster quickly reported the incident to Daniel Harris. "Currently, we’ve kept this issue suppressed and haven’t alerted the media. The crazed fan has also been taken away by the police."
"She only suffered minor external injuries?" Daniel Harris approached Mabel Quinn, but what puzzled him was that despite being only a few steps away, she seemed not to have seen him, as if he were just thin air...
"What’s wrong with her eyes?" Daniel Harris noticed something was off.
Lavender Foster awkwardly explained, "It’s because the man used some gas on Mabel Quinn at the time, causing temporary blindness, but her vision should recover after a while."
