The great Ms. Quimbey, who had never seen the world, always exaggerated.
Nicole’s heart sank for a moment.
"A gunshot? Are you sure?"
Yvette smiled. "Of course, I'm not sure, but Lance said that it was a gunshot. He wouldn't let me watch the show. Eric's assistant, Mitchell, sent all the guests away, saying that the engagement was canceled. I'm guessing that the arms dealer’s daughter shot a gun in a fit of anger..."
Nicole frowned. What are the consequences of shooting a firearm in Mediania?
It was very troublesome.
However...
Nicole pursed her lips. "Did anyone get hurt?”
Yvette paused. "I don’t think so. Lance said that no ambulance came, and there wasn't anyone making noise. It's probably fine. But I saw them take Angie away in handcuffs!"
Nicole quietly sighed in relief.
If the people from the Security Bureau took Angie away, this engagement was probably Eric's revenge. It was his elaborate trap.
His purpose was to trap Angie.
Her identity was special, so there were naturally many things to investigate.
In retrospect, there might be some trouble.
Did he never think that Caleb would retaliate against him to save his daughter?
Nicole’s mind was a little confused, but she did not want to think much about it.
With Eric’s skills, he was certainly more thoughtful than her. What did she have to worry about?
She pursed her lips and joined in Yvette's gossip.
"You’re really amazing to observe so clearly. There's even someone beside you to explain the situation."
Yvette laughed and proudly accepted the praise.
"I can't help it. I'm always first when it comes to gossip.”
Nicole smiled and was just about to say something when a shadow flashed in front of her. She paused for a moment and looked up to see a tall and thin man. His face was very pale to the point of looking abnormally sick, and he looked at her with a smile.
His smile looked wicked and hostile.
