Chapter 1929
“I just got the news: that woman named Jeannie is dead!”
The one who broke the news was a popular internet celeb from E City.
‘No way! Wasn’t she live streaming just last night?”
“If this is fake news, I wish it was real!”
“Don’t just drop a bomb like that. Got any proof?”
Soon enough, a comment popped up in the thread with a photo.
The comment claimed that a body was found in a river on the outskirts of E City by a man who was fishing.
The location was really close to where Jeannie was last seen.

Paige is currently laying low and can’t do much, but now Baillie isn’t limiting her phone time.
She’s having a blast playing on her phone.
When she saw this news she immediately took a screenshot and sent it to Rosalynn.
Rosalynn quickly responded with a question mark.

“This internet celeb’s scoops are always spot on!” Paige replied, “I’ve got Baillie on the case, he’s got connections!”
“Okay!”
After responding to the message, Rosalynn looked over at Erica who was playing games with Jaime in the living room.
Before long, Paige called.
Rosalynn answered the call and walked out to the balcony behind the dining room.
The call connected.
“Oh my god, it’s karma! The dead person is really Jeannie Paige sounded really shocked.
Rosalynn was shocked, “How did she die?”
Paige replied, “You mean, was it murder or an accident?”
Rosalynn said, “Yeah.”
“I initially thought it was murder too, seemed too coincidental, but according to the investigation so far, it was an accidental drowning!” Paige said seriously, “Apparently she was picking something up by the river, and a rock came loose, she fell in. The place was remote and during siesta, she struggled and called for help for a while in the water, but eventually went under!”
Paige paused for a moment, sounding somewhat annoyed, “Baillie said there’s a video, but he won’t let me see it?”
As she was talking to Paige, Rosalynn messaged Baillie, “Send me the video!
Within a minute, the video was sent over.
Baillie also added, “Don’t tell Paige. She’s not in a good mood.”
“Got it.” Rosalynn replied.
“I think Baillie is being overprotective! He’s more like a brother and I’m his little sister, but I’m actually older!” Paige complained on the other end.
Baillie was sitting across from her.
Hearing this, he looked up, “You’ll have nightmares and won’t sleep well if you watch the video”
Paige turned her head away, pouting.
“Alright, next time I see him, I’ll scold him for you!” Rosalynn comforted her.
