At this time, Lina had just been admitted to the hospital. The red paint staining her had not been cleaned up, and she looked quite the mess.
When Gwenda and Cecilia appeared, she subconsciously hid herself under the covers.
Upon seeing this, Madeleine, Lina's manager, walked up to them. "Oh, it's Miss Kelly and..."
She looked at Gwenda.
"Hello, I am Cecilia's manager. Call me Miss Evans."
Gwenda introduced herself politely.
Madeleine eyed them, and had been about to speak when Lina threw back the sheets and glared at them with hatred. "Why are you here? Did you come to have a good laugh? Or do you think that you haven't done enough?"
"Miss Wood, please don't misunderstand. We, too, had just seen the news and found out about what happened to you, so we came to visit. We have no other intentions."
Gwenda said calmly with a polite smile, neither servile nor overbearing.
"I don't need your false kindness!"
Lina covered her face before glaring at Cecilia. " You better keep an eye on your fans. Fortunately, it was red paint today. If it's sulfuric acid next time, I would be completely ruined!"
Cecilia pressed her lips together and did not speak, Gwenda's instructions fresh on her mind.
"Please calm down, Miss Wood. This matter is still under investigation and does not have a definite conclusion. It would be better if there are no misunderstandings."
Gwenda reminded her with a smile.
"Misunderstanding? What kind of misunderstanding can there be?"
Lina was furious. "It was a fan of hers! I'm sure of it. I've debuted for so many years and have never once experienced something like this before! It's all thanks to her that I do now!"
Gwenda pursed her lips but did not retort. Her expression was unreadable.
Lina glared balefully at them.
Nearby, Madeleine's gaze had drifted for a bit before she asked impatiently, "Why are you really here? If you're here to apologise, please show your sincerity. Don't beat around the bush!"
Right after she said that, Gwenda's phone suddenly rang with a notification.
She took it out and had a quick look.
