Chapter 49: Chapter 49: There’s Always a Price to Pay, Isn’t There?

Tiana Thorne’s dark pupils shone like pearls, as she lowered her head onto May Sloane’s injured leg.

May, trembling slightly, looked at her: "What is it? Have you figured out something terrifying again?"

The first time, Tiana nearly calculated away half of her life.

Tiana’s lips curved into a smile, the coldness in her eyes deepening: "Of course, it’s to find the person who hurt you."

May was taken aback, then looked down at her leg again, finally understanding: "You mean, my leg was deliberately injured a second time by someone else?"

Tiana nodded: "Let’s walk and talk."

"Alright."

Once in the car, Tiana leaned lazily against the back seat, pondering the series of events that occurred today.

At that moment, a police officer came over and knocked on the car door.

Tiana rolled down the car window, her smile coquettish and charming: "Officer, is there anything else?"

The officer, upon seeing her smile, felt this woman was utterly enchanting.

Moreover, she was beautiful, not particularly in her features but in the aura she exuded.

May looked up at the car ceiling.

Tiana’s irresistible charm!

If only she could share a bit, it might help her find someone!

The officer paused for a moment, awkwardly touching his nose: "We need Miss Thorne to come back with us for a statement."

Tiana had matters to attend to; she smiled sweetly, with a hint of sass: "Everything that happened can be seen in my agent’s live broadcast replay; I was shocked and want to go rest, is that alright?"

Inside the car, May: "..."

Finn: "..."

The ones truly shocked were probably Gordon Kane and Screenwriter Caldwell...

At this time, an older officer smiled and said: "In that case, Miss Thorne doesn’t need to come to the station now; but if we need Miss Thorne later, please cooperate."

Tiana nodded: "Sure, I’ll definitely cooperate with you, it’s my responsibility."

"Alright."

Finn started the engine and headed towards Zenith Media.

May asked: "Tiana, did you give the chocolate to the police?"

Tiana nodded: "It’s evidence, of course, I gave it."

May thought back to what she said at the filming base and asked curiously: "By the way, what did you mean by that comment earlier?"

Tiana narrowed her eyes coldly, analyzing each word clearly: "The pre-arranged announcement, you suddenly getting hurt today, and me having to go alone, coinciding with the selection for the lead actress, don’t you think it’s too coincidental?"

"It does seem pretty coincidental when you put it like that."

Finn frowned as well: "So, this person has been targeting us from behind."

"Hmm."

Finn continued: "But the one who hurt May might not be the mastermind."

"Why do you think so?" May felt like Finn was channeling a detective.

Finn analyzed systematically: "Orchestrating something as significant as targeting Tiana wouldn’t necessarily be done by the mastermind personally. To avoid exposure, the person who made May fall in the restroom was someone hired by the mastermind; the opponent must be highly cautious, and it might not be easy to trace back."

Tiana did not refute: "What you said aligns with my thinking."

May felt troubled, suspecting Jodie Tanner might be behind it all, which Tiana must have thought of too.

Unfortunately, there’s no evidence.

May asked: "What’s the use of going back?"

Tiana smiled coldly, her voice carrying an inherent dominance, retorting: "Since my people have been harmed, there’s a debt to be paid, isn’t there?"
