True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules ( Winnie and Suzan ) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 

While the online community buzzed with anticipation for the police to trace down the 

mastermind, Winnie temporarily stepped away from the camera’s gaze

The audience saw her whisper something to Bagot at the door before she left the room, sans 

the camera crew

She returned shortly after, her expression unchanged, and the viewers assumed she had simply taken a quick bathroom break. Mae, however, was beside herself with worry

Knowing how to pinpoint the puppeteer behind the scenes was one thing, but the immediate concern was the cursed bracelet

Master Bryant, until we find the person behind this, am I stuck with this bracelet? Could it keep making me age?Mae had been hiding her face, unwilling to let the camera capture her haggard and makeupfree appearance

In reality, when everyone had rushed into the room at her scream, her plain facewas already broadcast live to the world, with screenshots and captions now circulating online

Winnie looked at her and casually asked, Didn’t the show give you an amulet when your arrived?” 

Mae was momentarily taken aback, Yes.” 

Just wear that, and you’ll be fine.” 

Winnie’s nonchalant advice struck Mae like a bolt of lightning. So easy

The audience in front of the livestream recalled the amulet when Winnie mentioned it. That’s right. Didn’t the last episode mention the production gave out amulets that could save lives?” 

I remember. Last episode my boy Kaney used that amulet to save Winnie’s foster mom. It was said to contain a Protection Charm drawn by a master, specifically for the guests.” 

Mae must have one, but why isn’t she using it?” 

She got one. The host gave it to her before checking into the B&B yesterday. All the other guests carry theirs, so why isn’t she wearing it?” 

If she isn’t going to wear it, can I have it? I’d pay good money.” 

Even Mae’s fans were frustrated- 

Didn’t Mae put that Protection Charm on?” 

Mae, you’re too careless. How come you’re not wearing the Protection Charm?” 

Mae was oblivious to the viewersfrustrations

Before Winnie mentioned the amulet, she had completely forgotten about it

You mean if I wear that Protection Charm, the bracelet won’t be able to affect me anymore?Mae’s voice was weak, clearly shaken

Winnie was also puzzled. She had quessed Mae might be hiding another bracelet but hadn’t. explicitly asked her to hand it over, thinking she’d be safe with Protection Charm. It was a lesson to be learned

Now, seeing Mae’s reaction, it was clear she hadn’t been wearing the Charm

The host couldn’t help but ask, Where’s the lifesaving amulet?” 

He had one himself, a gift from Mr. Bally, and he always carried it with him. When he handed it 

to Mae the day before, he had emphasized that she should carry it at all times

Mae’s eyes darted quiltily before pointing to a suitcase in the corner of the room

It’s in the suitcase.” 

Not just Winnie, but the other four guests looked at Mae as if she were a fool. After the first episode, they had seen the power of the Protection Charm firsthand, and now wouldn’t even shower without it in a waterproof bag on their person

It was the greatest assurance given by the production team

Who could have imagined that someone would toss their lifesaving Charm aside? Didn’t she watch the previous episode before joining the show

Of course, Mae had watched the show. After all, she agreed to come as a backup guest because of the huge viewership from the first episode

But what she had watched was not the twoandahalfhour version provided by the production team, but a fanedited, narrated version that lasted only ten minutes

That version didn’t mention the lifesaving amulet at all. So she had no idea about the Protection Charm drawn by a master that could save lives inside the bag

Plus, she had heard the amulet was previously used by the convicted murderer Naylor. Although she didn’t say anything, once back in her room, she tossed the bag into the corner of her suitcase

Now, hearing Winnie’s words, she was on the verge of tears. Without hesitation, she opened her suitcase and dug out the amulet in front of the camera

The moment her fingers touched the bag, she felt the oppressive chill that seemed to envelop her dissipate, and she instantly felt a weight lifted off her shoulders

In that instant, she knew the Protection Charm was indeed effective

Realizing this, she wanted to cry even more. If only she had known earlier, would she still look so worn out today

It wasn’t until this moment that Mae truly regretted her actions

Chapter 157 

She had joined a variety show in good health, and how had it come to this

After Mae had carefully placed the Protection Charm on her person, the Emerald Bay police arrived with their team

A familiar face led the way
