Elena looked at Audrey teasingly and said, “Audrey, I can give you a reminder.”
“What?” Audrey looked at her in puzzlement.
Elena glanced at her phone and said, “The closer you are to someone, the more dangerous it is.”
Audrey looked at her in a daze.
“You, you mean…” Audrey’s eyes suddenly widened.
Elena looked at him in surprise.
“Why? You’ve already guessed it, right? Actually, I think that you…” Elena was about to say something when she heard Audrey say in realization, “Don’t worry! I have a good relationship with Anna. She won’t harm me.”
Elena was dumbfounded.
Audrey laughed. “I know. You want to remind me to be vigilant against the people around me. I usually spend most of my time with Anna when I’m filming, but I can guarantee that Anna has a good character. She definitely won’t do anything to hurt me.”
Elena supported her chin with her hand and looked at Audrey with a faint smile. “Is that what you think?”
Audrey suddenly said in frustration, “Previously, when my second brother and I went to the school to rehearse the program, I met a female student there. My second brother even advised me to be vigilant against her… I didn’t expect that I would end up harming myself.”
Elena quickly guessed what was going on.
“So, you were tricked by that girl, right?” Elena asked curiously.
Audrey replied awkwardly, “Later, when I confronted her, she got angry and stopped participating in the show. Weren’t you watching the show back then? There was a scene where I said my lines directly to the air.”
Elena carefully recalled the details of last night and couldn’t help but laugh. “No wonder… When I saw you acting, I was still wondering why Juliet’s mother was no longer alive. I remember that in Shakespeare’s version, her mother was still alive.”
Audrey smiled in embarrassment.
“So, your second brother is a good judge of character.” Elena changed the topic to Eric.
“That’s right.” Audrey’s eyes instantly lit up. “I previously thought that he liked Becky… the girl I told you about just now. But after what happened, I realized that he doesn’t like Becky at all.”
“And then?” Elena raised her eyebrows and asked.
“Then, I learned that Becky deliberately approached me to make use of me,” Audrey replied.
“Use you?” Elena suddenly became curious. “What did she use you for?”
“It’s…” Audrey was about to say something when she was suddenly stunned.
To date, in Audrey’s memory, the most outrageous thing Becky had done was to place a listening device in the carnations and deliberately miss the stage play.
“Becky is Liz’s spy,” Audrey said. “She knew that you and Charlotte would go to the Imperial Capital Music Academy to attend the school’s anniversary, so she deliberately approached me to find out your exact movements.”
“Hmm…” Elena fell into deep thought. “That’s a reasonable reason. Audrey, I keep feeling that Liz is a little strange.”
“What?” Audrey looked puzzled.
“Last night, what did you say in Liz’s ear? I think her last psychological defense seemed to have been destroyed by you.” Elena looked at Audrey with a probing gaze.
Audrey’s back stiffened.
Elena sized up Frank’s face and smiled. “Why? Did you mention Frank to her? Is that why she’s so devastated?”
Audrey forced herself to calm down and said, “Nothing… I just said something unimportant.”
“Unimportant?” Elena seemed to be in disbelief, but soon, she said indifferently, “In that case, I have nothing else to ask… Okay, let’s eat breakfast first.”
At ten o’clock in the morning, Elena went to the garage and drove out a luxury car.
“Let’s go. I’ll send you home,” Elena said. “If you want to go shopping, I have no objections.”
Audrey fell silent for a moment before saying, “I want to meet Liz.”
“What?” Elena thought she had heard wrongly. “You want to meet that vicious woman?”
Audrey replied, “I think it’s better if I ask her about some things.”
Elena gestured for her to get into the car. “That woman was taken away by the police last night. I don’t think you’ll be able to see her for a while.”
