Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 525

[It’s absolutely a gift from Mr. Lampard,] a netizen scoffed, [all this talk about making it on her own in showbiz, but it's all about who's got her back.]

While her followers were buzzing with curiosity about whether Astrid's watch was the real deal or a fake, she nonchalantly tapped the screen and said, "Show's over, folks. Bring me the goods."

The comments exploded with question marks.

Karin felt a sudden tremor of fear.

Then, several burly bodyguards, their faces hidden behind masks, emerged from the woods, carrying objects with reverence.

Approaching Astrid, they handed over what they were carrying.

All the evidence was neatly packed in transparent plastic bags, which were piles of paper documents and a small vial, the one Karin had thrown off the cliff.

Karin shook uncontrollably at the sight of that vial.

She had tossed it over the edge. How in the world had it turned up here?

Astrid looked at Karin, then turned to the camera to show off the evidence. "The moment I realized I was poisoned, I suspected the culprit would try to cover their tracks. So I discreetly used the call function on my watch to alert my team. The reason I didn't immediately call out the poisoner but claimed I was bitten by an insect was to buy time for my team to gather all the evidence."

Then she turned to Karin and said, "Karin, this vial has your fingerprints on it with poison residue inside. Why would your prints be on it if you didn't bring it here?"

Caught off guard by Astrid's early suspicions, Karin froze.
