“No regrets,” Nina replied. “I just never imagined I’d be in this position. I used to be just a secretary, and now I’m making a huge gamble with ten million. It’s enough to scare anyone!” Penelope put her arm around Nina’s shoulder. “You’re my biggest investor now. I’ll be counting on you!””Don’t say that!” Nina said. “The hard work is just beginning. We’ll only be able to relax once the drama airs and gets good feedback. Otherwise, we’ll be in big trouble. We have to win this time!” Penelope knew she was making a huge gamble just like Nina.The stakes were high, and this project could make or break them. She did not know why she felt compelled to take such a risky path. Perhaps it was Nina’s determination that inspired her.It ignited a fire in her, driving her to aim for the top. She was no longer just Penelope from a small town. She was aiming to become Queen Penelope.A confident smile tugged at Penelope’s lips. “We can only win, no room for failure!”Back at the office, it was already after hours. Nina felt exhausted.She found herself getting tired more easily, wondering if it was due to the pregnancy. She used to handle work just fine. Without giving it much thought, she kept preparing for the new drama, working late into the night.Feeling dizzy, Nina slumped over her desk and fell asleep, not noticing her pale complexion.Seeing that Nina had not returned home, Wilfred came to her office. Finding her asleep at her desk, he saw the rough drafts on her computer and noticed her pale face.Without hesitation, he cut his wrist, letting his blood drip onto the beads of her bracelet. The beads glowed more brightly as they absorbed his blood.This scene was witnessed by Scott,who had just returned and had not had a chance to contact Nina. He brought some gifts for her, feeling excited But as he stopped and took in what he was seeing, his eyes widened in shock. Wilfred bandaged his wrist, his face even paler than usual.Hearing a noise, he called out, “Who’s there?” Ads by PubFuture
Turning, he saw Scott. Wilfred’s expression was cold, his eyes almost icy. He held a scalpel, speaking calmly, “Are you an employee here?””I’m a friend of Nina’s,” Scott responded, realizing the situation. “Is something wrong with Nina?”Wilfred walked toward him, his eyes cold and his grip on the scalpel tightening. He lunged at Scott, aiming for his heart.Fortunately, Scott dodged quickly and grabbed Wilfred’s hand.”I haven’t seen her for a while, and now she’s like this. Is she in danger? And who are you to her?” Scott questioned, trying to make sense of the situation.Scott kept guessing, his mind racing.The situation was clearly dangerous. The man before him did not seem like a good guy, especially considering he was using his own blood for something. “I haven’t seen you before, but it seems like you have a close connection with Nina. Was she with you during her disappearance? Is she caught up in some organization and being watched now?” Scott furrowed his brows. He had been investigating this for a while.Scott added, “I’ve known Nina for a long time. I’m her friend, not her enemy!” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
