Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1272



It had been five hours since Veronica Murphy fell into the lake, and panic had gripped everyone on set. They had even started sending people to search for her. However, it seemed as though she had vanished into thin air, just like magic.

Blue Star Lake was an artificial lake in the film and television city, with a depth of nearly ten meters. Once someone drowned and sank to the bottom, finding them would be as difficult as reaching the heavens. Later, Blue Shu, Veronica’s manager, received a call from the crew.

“What did you say? Veronica Murphy drowned?”

Blue Shu was terrified by the phone call, trembling in fear. After hanging up, she immediately drove to the set. At the same time, she tried calling Matthew Kings, but neither Matthew Kings nor Thomas Ritter could be reached.

When Blue Shu urgently arrived at the film and television city, she suddenly received a text message. As she read the contents of the message, she immediately made a phone call to someone.

Not long after, Sam Symons, a member of the crew, also received a phone call. That day, the entire crew had half a day off.

After Blue Shu arrived at the set, she stormed into Sam Symons’ lounge. “Sam Symons, I’m Blue Shu, Veronica Murphy’s manager.”

Sam Symons was sitting on the sofa with a worried expression. When he saw Blue Shu enter, he immediately stood up. “Did you send me the message just now?”

“Yes.” Blue Shu walked up to Sam Symons and casually threw her bag onto the sofa, crossing her legs as she sat down.

Although she was a woman, she had a tall figure and was dressed in a black windbreaker. She rarely smiled and exuded a strong aura of coldness.

She raised her gaze slightly and questioned Sam Symons, “Did you investigate the surveillance footage as I asked?”

Sam Symons glanced at the martial arts instructor Zhao Dao next to him and hurriedly said to Blue Shu, “We’re investigating it. We’ve already started the investigation.” He then asked Zhao Dao, “How is the investigation going? Any results yet?”

Zhao Dao nervously scratched his head and said, “Not yet, we’re still checking the surveillance footage.”

“Hmph.”

Blue Shu sneered and picked up her bag. She unzipped it and took out a few photos, throwing them directly onto the table. “If you can’t find anything, I’ll help you investigate.”

The photos landed on the table with a loud thud. Sam Symons immediately picked them up, and Zhao Dao leaned in to look at them together.

As they flipped through the photos one by one, it was like watching a short video. It was clear that someone had tampered with the wire rope of the second machine, and the wire rope had been cut.

“My artist may be a newcomer, but she has encountered numerous mishaps in your crew. Sam Symons, don’t you think you owe us an explanation?”

With that, Blue Shu took out a box of cigarettes from her bag. Her red lips held the cigarette, while her delicate jade fingers held the lighter to ignite it. She took a puff, exhaling a thin wisp of smoke, her eyes fixed on Sam Symons, waiting for his response.

Although Sam Symons was an experienced person in the industry, having seen countless people, he was still overwhelmed by Blue Shu’s powerful aura.

Pointing at the photo, he swore, “Rest assured, I will give you an account of this matter. But, is Veronica Murphy alright?”

“If I hadn’t arranged for someone to rescue her and send her to the hospital immediately, she would probably be lifeless by now!” Blue Shu held the cigarette between her fingers and flicked the ash into the ashtray on the table, her demeanor icy and elegant. “You have two days. If you can’t provide results, I will report to the police. By then, the matter will become a big scandal, and don’t blame me for tarnishing the reputation of your crew.”

After making her threat, Blue Shu grabbed her bag, stood up, and confidently walked away, leaving the lounge.

Sam Symons sat on the sofa, watching Blue Shu’s departing figure, rubbing his head. “Why have I offended some god of fortune to have everything go wrong!” he exclaimed in frustration.

Not long ago, he had thought that Veronica Murphy had drowned and sunk to the bottom of the lake. He was already contemplating how to announce the incident to the crew. However, he received a message from Blue Shu, saying that Veronica Murphy had been found by her arranged person and taken to the hospital.

Sam Symons’ anxious heart finally settled. Little did he know, Blue Shu had not actually found Veronica Murphy.
