Taking advantage of the calm after the chaos, Ian ordered his men to escort her out.
The colleagues who had gathered to watch were shocked and quickly dispersed, pretending as if nothing had happened.
Lina felt a pang in her heart, realizing that Linda had gone out of her way to protect her. The image of Linda's efforts remained etched in her mind. She fought back tears and mustered a smile when their eyes met.
Linda spoke softly, pulling out a draft from her bag. "Lina, Renee, I came here today to give this to the two of you."

Abigail disguised herself, wearing a baseball cap and large sunglasses. Dressed casually in a T-shirt and jeans, she blended in with the crowd, appearing no different from an ordinary person.

"Ms. Abigail, the intern is currently working on the film studio project. I've heard she's hardworking and well-liked. By the way, she studies architectural design and has published several theses, earning numerous scholarships..."
"Can you tell me her name?" Abigail inquired, looking at the back of the photograph. "Is it this one... Lina Jenner?"
The assistant nodded with seriousness.
"How did you find this out? Can we trust the information?"
