Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Third Master Worries
Translator: 549690339
The online bashing was raging, while Daisy Zane counted money in her dreams all night.
When she woke up the next day, the first thing she saw on her phone was a production notice stating that the director was sick and had halted shooting for a day.
Then she saw the message Kevin Clark had sent twenty minutes earlier: [Tell me when you’re awake.]
Daisy replied to him first, then checked the hot searches while heading to the washroom.
Two hours earlier, the Truro Police Department had released a post on their official Facebook.
The text read: The truth is unknown, please do not make rash comments. The initial posting of this chapter occurred via noovelllbbin
A video was attached below.
It was from the martial arts instructor; the background seemed to have been filmed in an interrogation chamber.
The martial arts instructor had confessed everything clearly, not mentioning Lilian Lopez’s name directly, but using “Lilian Someone” instead.
He explained that Daisy Zane’s actions were also acts of self-defense.
He then apologized to Lady Zane, expressing his repentance and determination to change for the better.
Daisy browsed the comments. Under the Facebook post, the comments were mostly in support of justice.
However, the comments in the hot search about “Lilian Someone” were not friendly.
It was no secret which drama crew Daisy Zane was in and who was involved:
Although “Lilian Someone” didn’t explicitly mention Lilian Lopez, it pointed directly at her.
She had high traffic and popularity, and the more famous one is, the more controversies they face. She couldn’t escape involvement, whether she was involved or not.
The top five hot searches included two related topics, and Daisy casually clicked on one.
The discussions were heated.
[There are so many people with the surname Lilian in the world. How come you know it’s our Lilian? Did the martial arts instructor tell you?]
[If it’s Lilian Lopez, and the incident has grown this big, she would have been taken away by now. How could she still be in the hotel?]
[Daisy Zane’s a newcomer. What would Lilian, with her current status, gain from going after a newcomer? Do you think everyone is as idle as you?]
[What’s wrong with being a newcomer? Daisy Zane is so beautiful, she doesn’t have to do anything, just standing there is a threat. You ask what’d she do to a newcomer, she’s just jealous.]
[Besides, are the words of that martial arts instructor necessarily true? What if he is being instructed by someone to say so intentionally?]
[Perhaps the 2.5 million in the bank card was given by the Tangs, who asked to slander others.]
“Where do you guys stay?”
“There’s a guest house at the other end of town that we’ve booked.” Arthur North said, “Would you like to go check it out? There’s a small lake nearby, and the view is nice.”
“Sure.”
“Alright, we’ll head there after breakfast.”
But after breakfast, they could not leave immediately.
The doorbell suddenly rang urgently.
The three exchanged glances, and Daisy Zane said, “Go to the bedchamber.”
Arthur North didn’t think it was very convenient, but after looking around, there was really nowhere else to go, so he nodded and went to the bedchamber.
Daisy Zane opened the door, and Serena Buster, looking anxious, was standing outside, getting startled by the sound of the door opening.
“Something’s up?” Daisy Zane asked.
“Yes.” Serena Buster’s eyes were slightly green, and she seemed overly tense,
“Can I come in and talk? It’s something very important.”
Daisy Zane hesitated for a moment, then stepped aside to let her in.
Once inside, Serena Buster immediately sat on the sofa. She seemed to be so nervous that she needed to take a break right away.
Daisy Zane poured her a glass of water and sat down opposite her.
Since yesterday, she had been holding on to something to tell her, but she hesitated and seemed scared.
“I...” Serena Buster took a sip of water, then gently inhaled, “Yesterday... I went to the film set.
Daisy Zane didn’t say anything and just looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
Feeling the pressure of Daisy Zane’s gaze, Serena Buster was hesitant to look up. After a few seconds of silence, she said, “You... When you were practicing with the martial arts instructor, I snuck and hid behind the props to watch you.”
Daisy Zane’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
“1...1 didn’t mean any harm. 1...1 just wanted to see.” Serena Buster’s voice grew fainter and weaker, “I saw him touch you, but... 1...1 was too scared, so I didn’t go out. But I turned on the recording.”
Inside the bedchamber, Arthur North and Xavier Dominic were standing by the door. Out of respect, neither of them looked inside. The door was not fully closed.
So naturally, the conversation in the living room reached their ears as well.
At first, everything was okay, but after the words “he touched you” reached the bedroom. Xavier Dominic could clearly feel Arthur North getting angry.
That kind of diffused, deadly silent murderous aura was too intimidating. Xavier Dominic couldn’t take it any longer and shifted to the side.
Soon, Arthur North took out his cell phone and sent a message to Michael Jackson: [Find out if the martial arts instructor had any previous issues, make sure he stays in jail. And I want his two arms.]
Michael Jackson: [Yes, Third Master, I’ll do it right away..]
