Helen recorded all the details and put away the projector, looking inquiringly at Gan Yuan, who simply lifted her chin lightly.
"You take her downstairs first."
"But..." Leaving her alone on the rooftop, Helen inevitably felt somewhat uneasy.
"You’ll be back down soon, there won’t be any problems," Gan Yuan’s gaze fell upon Annie who was so weak she could hardly walk, "Make sure she’s looked after, and don’t let her cause any trouble tonight."
"If necessary, I can make it look like an accident," Helen said.
To Helen, a character like Annie wasn’t worth mourning, and she didn’t mind creating a suicide scene for her, after all, the media would certainly think that she committed suicide due to the shame of her deeds being exposed.
"No need!" Gan Yuan shook her head, "I don’t want to kill anyone now."
In the past, she had done too many wrong things, and now she did not want to solve her problems through killing anymore.
This way, in the future, she could proudly tell her children how she won the game through wisdom, not guns, and she wouldn’t need to lie to them.
She had said she wanted to change, and it wasn’t just talk.
Annie obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and Helen, as if enlightened, nodded and dragged Annie downstairs.
As the sound of their steps faded, Gan Yuan turned her head toward the other side of the rooftop and called out.
A soft laugh came from the shadows, and then Jessica emerged from behind the wall, walking up to her with a smile that was not quite a smile, "How did you know it was me?"
Gan Yuan returned her smile, "Moses would know the news and surely come to check, so I guessed it had to be you."
Jessica shrugged, "Thinking about it, it’s fortunate we’re not enemies now."
Before, Jessica had felt somewhat unconvinced after hearing the butler, hearing Paul, hearing Moses... talk about Gan Yuan.
After all, she was just a girl. Even if she was skilled and smart, how much better could she be than Jessica herself?
But after these days of interaction, Jessica realized that this girl really was extraordinary.
Fortunately, they weren’t enemies, otherwise, such an opponent would indeed be difficult to handle.
Gan Yuan silently pondered the meaning of these words.
Jessica wasn’t an especially scheming girl; if she said this, it surely meant she had received similar hints from Moses.
"He..." Jessica pressed her lips together, "is doing quite well!"
Gan Yuan turned to look at her.
On one side of the rooftop were flashing neon lights, casting a blur into her eyes. In those glossy black eyes, Jessica clearly saw the concern.
The surgery was ready, and Moses would soon undergo the operation, with a fifty percent success rate, no one could guarantee he would return safely from the operating table.
She dared not imagine Gan Yuan’s expression upon learning the truth.
Feeling a sudden heaviness in her heart, Jessica turned to gaze into the distance at the night sky.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first. You should also go back to rest early, prepare well for tomorrow’s election."
After speaking, Jessica walked towards the exit.
"Jessica!" Gan Yuan called out urgently, "Is he really okay?"
Jessica stopped in her tracks, bit her lip, and spoke without turning around.
Gan Yuan nodded slightly, "Goodnight."
Jessica forcefully pushed open the door to the rooftop and rushed down the steps, truly frightened that if Gan Yuan asked her one more question, she wouldn’t be able to resist revealing the truth.
