She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 353

Bianca sighed. “I don’t know that girl's true identity. My original plan was to use her as a scapegoat, a double insurance. But now, I don’t dare to recklessly frame her for Vincent’s murder.”

“What about Vincent? Is he at the hospital?” Finn asked.

“He’s still at a private clinic, heavily sedated,” Bianca said, looking at him grimly. “It was a large dose of lye, but that girl’s first aid actually worked. The clinic’s doctor said his condition is stable and he can still be saved. His throat is about half-destroyed. It’ll take until tomorrow for his vocal cords to be completely ruined, but there are too many variables. I want to send him to a proper hospital now.”

“Why didn’t you force-feed him a second dose at the scene?” Finn asked.

“With so many eyes watching? It wasn’t possible. Besides, when an artist of his caliber gets hurt, there’s a full forensic medical examination. If a second dose were found, the doctors would know,” Bianca explained. “Our guilt would be undeniable.”

Management was already aware of the concert incident and had apprehended the obsessive fan who supposedly poisoned him. Although news was being suppressed online, the fans at the concert couldn’t be silenced. They were all worried about Vincent’s condition, gathering at the entrance of Blossom Hospital to pray for him.

It wouldn’t be long before the hospital, after learning the truth, would issue a clarification that the star wasn’t there. The whole charade would soon fall apart.

Disappointment flashed in Finn’s eyes. He dropped the hand he was using to comfort her and sighed softly. “Forget it. This must be my fate. Let’s just end this here. I’ll submit my resignation to the company.”

Bianca panicked, grabbing his hand. “I can support you! You don’t have to go home.”

“You’ll support me? What kind of man would that make me? I love you, so of course I can’t drag you down. I only ever wanted to become strong enough to protect you, but it seems that dream is impossible now.”
