A Crazy Night Novel

Christina’s first thought was that the deal between Victoria and Emilia had been exposed.

“Is there anyone else who knows about the deal you made with Emilia?” Christina asked.

Victoria pondered over it seriously for a moment before shaking her head. Feeling at a loss, she replied, “The only ones I told were you and Seb.” The next moment, realization dawned on her, and she exclaimed, “It’s Emilia. She must’ve been the one who spilled the beans!”

Christina could not help but feel like something was amiss.

Casting a sharp gaze at Victoria, she asked solemnly. “Victoria, be honest with me. Other than creating a fake identity for Emilia to go abroad and telling her where the evidence is, did you make any other deals with her?”

Without hesitation, Victoria shook her head and replied, “Nope. Christina, there’s really nothing else. I’m telling the truth.”

As the matter concerned her safety, it would not make sense for Victoria to lie.

If the anonymous sender’s objective was to prevent the truth of what happened fifteen years ago from getting exposed by using Emilia’s tragic end to warn Victoria, it was unlikely that Victoria was his first target, and neither would she be the last.

Anyone who was linked to that piece of evidence from fifteen years ago or had seen the evidence was at risk of being killed!

Who could that person be?

Christina fell into deep thought and remained silent for a long time. While watching Christina silently, Victoria was also paying attention to her surroundings, as she was worried that someone would suddenly appear and assault her.

“Victoria, how can you be sure that Emilia is dead?”

“There was a letter in the box warning me to be careful with what I say if I don’t want to end up dying a gruesome death like Emilia. Christina, I tried contacting Emilia, but her phone was switched off. Something bad must have happened to her.”

Taking a pause, she continued, “Emilia did show up at Azure’s funeral yesterday, I saw her talking to Barnaby, but I’m not sure what they spoke about. Emilia needs money, and Winston had gone bankrupt. Since she wouldn’t be able to get anything from him, she would definitely try to get some from Barnaby by threatening him. After all, Barnaby was also involved in what happened fifteen years ago.”
