Alexander had suppressed the news about Lily’s kidnapping as much as possible.
The domestic media had not reported it, but there was news in Westwood.
The people in the industry, especially those who participated in the perfsampling conference, knew about it.
Lisa was distraught.She would have run over to see Lily, but it was already late at night, and her father stopped her from going.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGiselle was the most confused person in the whole event.She was one of the kidnapped people but slept throughout the whole incident.She did not know what had happened and only learned about the situation after the doctor examined her.She was still very uncertain about it after watching the news.She asked Lily repeatedly, "Is what the news says true? Is it true? I— no, I mean, we got kidnapped?" Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
She gasped when she saw Lily nodding affirmatively.Her mouth was so wide open that a whole apple could fit inside.
"How cI don’t know about it at all?!"
"You got drugged and were unconscious the whole time, so it’s normal if you did not know about it."
Lily paused for a moment.She feared her words were too harsh for Giselle and added, "The drugs were very high dosage."
"You said we got exposed to the drugs since we got into the car.Was it in the air freshener?" Giselle asked again after sthought.
Lily nodded and replied, "They only intended to kidnap me, but because you insisted on following, they kidnapped you too.I’m sorry for implicating you,"
Lily felt sorry from the bottom of her heart, as Giselle had beca victim of kidnapping because of her.
"That’s not the problem.How cyou're okay?"
Giselle did not mind the reason she had gotten kidnapped.
What puzzled her was that she did not feel like she had participated in the whole incident.She only felt like she had a very long sleep.
"I-I..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexander had asked her this question yesterday.She coughed and said, "You know I’m a perfumer myself, so I’m sensitive to scents.I held my breath when I noticed something was wrong.I still got drugged, but I probably had a little immunity against it as I'd gotten used to certain smells.That’s why I regained consciousness quicker than you did.You don’t need to be overly concerned about this.What is important is that we are fine now."
Giselle did not say anything but thought for a moment more.
Then she asked, "Why did they kidnap you?"
"Maybe they don’t wantto participate in the final round.Of course, it may also be for other reasons.I’m not too sure.We'll have to wait for the investigation results," Lily said.
She did not want Giselle to continue asking about this matter, so she deliberately changed the subject, "Anyway, the police have caught the bad guys, and we’re safe.That’s something we should be grateful
for.We are about to enter the final round but still don’t know the theme.Are you not nervous?"
Lily deliberately showed a nervous look to divert Giselle's attention.
Sure enough, Giselle stopped thinking about the kidnapping when she saw that Lily was agitated.She comforted Lily, "You don’t have to be too nervous since this is the last round.I have full confidence in you now.
"Also, didn’t the kidnapping further prove your capabilities since they did it to prevent you from participating? Besides, the company didn’t have a strict requirement for the final result.We’re already doing well enough since we entered the final round and got a good ranking.Relax."
Giselle seemed to think of something else, saying, "By the way, if that person didn’t want you to participate in the finals, then that person is likely a contestant who got into the final round.Even if that isn’t so, that person must have srelationship with the contestant.That’s a critical point.Did you tell the police to check on this?"
