Chapter 206

almost blurted out what was on his mind; he wanted to tell her the truth. However, before he could say anything, Timothy suddenly ran toward them in a great hurry. Seeing that both of them were present, he heaved a sigh of relief, but he still sounded anxious. “Bad news, Elspeth! Someone just came down with food poisoning!”“What?!” Elspeth’s brows furrowed at once.Timothy took Elspeth and Blake to the scene of the incident.Elspeth glanced at the floor, the person lying on which was an actress playing a relatively important supporting role whose part in the show was almost as big as that of the lead supporting actress.Seeing that Yelena was safe and sound despite her pale face, Elspeth was glad that she didn’t get poisoned.The next second, however, what Yelena said instantly left her with her heart in her mouth. “Elspeth, I really have no idea what happened.

Looking at her gorgeous face, the cop couldn’t bring himself to say anything that would put her on the spot, so he began to interrogate Yelena instead. “Since you say you didn’t do it on purpose, do you have any evidence to back that up?” Yelena shook her head. “I don’t know. Perhaps the snack got poison in it, but I really didn’t poison
