Under Charlene's guidance, everything proceeded smoothly.
However, just as the press conference began, Jennifer walked through a narrow alley, keeping a very low profile with her head wrapped up.
Fortunately, the area was full of people coming and going, and despite her appearance, she didn't attract any attention.
Soon, she arrived in front of a black door.
She raised her hand and knocked three times, but there was no response.
She didn't dare to make any more movements and patiently waited. Just as she was about to look up to check if she had come to the wrong place, a deep voice came from behind the door.
"Come in."
Only then did Jennifer push the door open. Upon entering, she was faced with a wall.
After closing the door and turning around, Jennifer let out a startled cry.
Short in stature, Sonia had somehow appeared before her, staring at Jennifer with lifeless eyes.
Jennifer wasn't easily frightened, but anyone in the same situation would have been scared enough to scream.
"Come with me," Sonia said after staring at Jennifer for a long time.
Jennifer quickly followed Sonia.
The courtyard layout gave her an eerie feeling. There were paper figures in the corner that she couldn't even dare to look at for long.
At that moment, she began to regret coming here.
"Tell me, what do you want?" Sonia sat down in a chair nearby and, with an unblinking gaze, asked Jennifer.
Jennifer was about to speak when Sonia raised a hand, signaling her to remain silent.
