Yelena immediately realized that Jordan had special feelings for Elspeth. She whispered in Elspeth’s ear with a

smile, “Elspeth, look how good Mr. Carr is. He seemingly bailed me out, but in reality, he did that because he cares

about you. Why do you have to be hung up on Callum? Isn’t it better to choose Mr. Carr instead?”

Elspeth gave her a dirty look. “Why are you so anxious to mind someone else’s business? You’re not out of the

woods yet. I should’ve left you alone at the police station just now.”

Yelena screwed up her face at once. “Okay, I’m wrong.”

“No matter what, thank you for helping Yelena out today,” Elspeth said, looking as usual despite thanking Jordan for

what he did.

Jordan raised his eyebrows. “In that case, why don’t you return the favor by giving me your hand in marriage?”

“Over my dead body.”

Jordan frowned. “Over your dead body? Are you sure about that?”

Elspeth shot a glare at him. “Get lost.”

Jordan smiled. “Alright, I shan’t keep you company any longer. I’ve got something else to deal with.”

“That’s most welcome. Take care and goodbye, then.”

Instead of taking offense at what Elspeth said, Jordan laughed heartily.

After the man had left, Elspeth glanced around her; only then did she notice that Blake looked rather surly. “What’s

wrong?”

Blake shook his head with a sigh. “It’s nothing. It’s just that I’m too useless.” I was no match for Callum before, and

now I’m no match for Jordan. It’s like I’m never qualified to stand side-by-side with Elspeth.

“No, you’re not. You’re an actor. If you had the ear of the police, you would’ve been blacklisted in show business

long ago, okay?” Elspeth joked in an attempt to comfort him.

Blake smiled a forced smile. “Okay, I know that.”

The three were just about to get in the car and return to the set of filming when they heard a stern voice. “Yelena!”

uttered the voice between clenched teeth.

Yelena trembled with fear the instant she heard the voice. She hid behind Elspeth, not daring to come out.

Max came to Elspeth’s side and dragged Yelena out with his hand clutching her collar. “I thought of forgiving you for

secretly leaving me behind and planned to visit you after some time, but little did I think you’d make such a

spectacle of yourself!”

Yelena gulped. “How did you find out?”

Max’s anger blazed up instantly. “How did I find out, huh? Are you still not gonna tell me about it?”

Yelena hung her head. “No, it’s not like that.” The instant she lowered her head, she noticed a hint of unease

flickering across Blake’s eyes nearby and immediately figured out everything. “Blake, did you snitch on me?”

Blake rubbed his nose while looking imperturbable. “I didn’t.”

Max pinched Yelena’s cheek a little hard, causing her to cry out in pain. “Don’t you think you should explain

everything to me at this hour? What the hell happened?”

Elspeth felt a headache creeping up as she watched the three people raising hell around her. “Let me explain it.

This time’s food poisoning is most probably Emma’s doing.”

“Emma?!” the three replied in chorus.

Elspeth’s lips twitched when she saw the looks of disbelief on their faces. “What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you guys

never suspected her?”

Max thought for a moment before faltering, “Well, Emma is a bit like a baby, but she’s a nice person in general. She

was nice to the Winthrops before, so I don’t think she’s such a person.”

Elspeth looked intrigued upon listening to this. “Is Yelena a member of the Winthrop Family?”

Stumped by the question, Max was at a loss for a reply.

Seeing that Blake also had the intention of refuting her, Elspeth then asked, “Emma got up to where she is now

after working in show business for almost five years. Say, Blake, do you think she could become who she is today

without any tricks up her sleeve?”

Blake knew better than anyone else how dirty show business was. At the thought of this, he clammed up and

stopped defending Emma.

On the other hand, Yelena wasn’t that astounded by Elspeth’s accusation. She asked anxiously, “In that case, did

Emma eat my box of snacks in secret?”

Elspeth was rendered speechless by her question. “Alright, that’s enough. At this point, we have to find the evidence

first before we can throw accusations at her.”

Convinced by her words, the other three nodded before following her back to the set of filming.

Elspeth had Yelena bring the box of snacks over before bringing it to her nose and smelling it. It smells familiar…

like cyanide grass. Such a poison is overwhelmingly aromatic and hard to obtain. Normally, it’s rare in the country.

Seeing Elspeth come back, Timothy came up to her, saying, “Elspeth, I just checked the surveillance footage as you

told me, but the corner where Yelena was is a blind spot that couldn’t be captured on the surveillance camera, so

there’s no footage that can be used as evidence. Coincidentally, there wasn’t anyone suspicious either.”

Elspeth’s eyes narrowed. That would mean the person who laced Yelena’s snacks with poison should be one of the

crew members, which was why they knew where the surveillance cameras were and wouldn’t draw suspicions.

Realizing this at once, she came to the director’s side, asking, “Mr. Aiden, no one went out while I was away, right?”

Aiden was in low spirits, but he nodded nonetheless. “That’s right. The police had the set of filming sealed off while

you were away just now.”

“Good to hear that, Mr. Aiden. Now I need your help to gather everyone.”

Aiden was surprised. “Why?”

Elspeth’s lips curled into a smile. “That’s because I’ve found out who poisoned the actress.”

Upon hearing this, Aiden instantly perked up and asked his assistant to call everyone over.

Glancing at the crowd before her, Elspeth said coldly, “Let me say this one last time—the one who laced Yelena’s

snacks with poison, please come forward by yourself. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences when I find

you.”

Everyone trembled all over with fear, but no one came forward after a minute.

“Alright, then. Now hold out your hands, everyone.”

Everyone obediently stretched out their hands.

The crew members were mostly ladies, so their hands were fair and tender. After looking at them one by one,

Elspeth soon stopped before a young lady, asking, “Your hands smell so good. What perfume are you wearing?”

The young lady replied with a smile, “I don’t like floral perfumes, so I’m wearing a honey-peach-scented perfume.”

Elspeth had been smiling just a second ago. In this instant, however, she rebuked in a stern voice, “It was you. You

were the one who laced Yelena’s snacks with poison!”

A hint of panic instantly flickered across the young lady’s eyes. “You’re throwing mud at me! Why would you say I

was the poisoner?”

Elspeth walked around the young lady while sniffing at her. Then, she explained, “The person who hired you to do

this told you that the poisonous grass is aromatic, but they didn’t tell you that its scent would produce a strange

smell when mixed with any kind of perfume. Not only that, the strange smell couldn’t be washed off.”

The young lady’s face blanched at once.

“Coincidentally, however, the honey-peach-scented perfume you’re wearing today is best at producing the strange

smell mixture, so… Are you still not gonna admit it?”

The ladies around the young lady sniffed at her. Just as Elspeth had said, she had a smell on her other than the

scent of honey peach.

The young lady slumped to the ground in fright. After all, she never thought she would be found out so quickly.

Elspeth bent down and stared into her eyes. “Who made you do it?”
