She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258: Fortunately, I Have You to Support Me

Cheyenne listened and felt that this was just a typical club gathering where people accidentally got drunk, but there were some suspicious things about it.

For example, why did everyone choose such a high-end hotel? Kate explained that it wasn't her choice, but rather they all voted together. To accommodate classmates who weren't well-off financially, she always compared prices and chose a mid-range restaurant. But this time was strange because 90% of the people chose the highest standard Crown Hotel, where the minimum spending for one night was at least four digits.

Cheyenne silently noted this in her heart and circled the word "hotel".

"Can you think of anything else different about your dinner? Like any forgotten details?" Cheyenne asked.

Kate's head tilted slightly as she finally remembered something. "Last night, I don't know what happened, but Peyton suddenly came up to me with a drink and apologized for something from before."

"I didn't think too much at the time, so I drank it... Cheyenne... That drink... Could there have been something wrong with it?" Kate asked worriedly.

Cheyenne rubbed her chin while pondering over this question. "It's hard to say. If we can find the glass, then that would be great, but it'd been one night already so we might not be able to find it."

Kate sighed sadly and tears welled up in her eyes. "I'm really useless... Everyone else could figure out what I couldn't..."

Given how seriously hurt Kate was by all of this, Cheyenne comforted her by saying: "It's okay; you can't blame yourself for everything since humans are bad sometimes."

Cheyenne's current plan was twofold: first, to find Timothy, as Kate had described that she felt followed when she was tipsy and heading to the bathroom. Second, was to investigate the hotel, as it might hold forgotten clues. People with access to such upscale establishments were typically affluent.

Kate's voice carried a mixture of fear and concern as she whispered to Cheyenne, "Cheyenne, please don't tell my brother about this. I'm afraid he'll lose it."

"He absolutely will!" Her parents had passed away early, and Eddie was not just her big brother but more like a father figure. Over the years, Kate had developed a fear of this gentle and caring older brother. When he got angry, he wouldn't shout or hit; he'd simply ignore you. For a chatterbox like Kate, Eddie's silent treatment felt like being abandoned by the whole world.

However, Kate was fortunate that even though her grades weren't great, her minor mistakes were indulged by Eddie. But this situation was different. Her brother had raised her with great care, and he was undoubtedly going to pursue the matter.

Being a doctor, he had the means to deal with the situation, even if it involved harming someone. Moreover, Eddie had won numerous awards for human anatomy and was known for his surgical precision. He could extract a full skeletal structure without spilling a drop of blood, earning him online comparisons to a skilled chef.
