Chapter 1275
When it comes to matters involving loved ones, rationality tends to be lost. Miguel Lynch and Matthew Kings had been close friends for many years, and Miguel was always calm and composed in any situation. However, when it came to Veronica Murphy, he would often act impulsively.
He was completely different from the man who usually handled things calmly. Perhaps everyone has two sides.
“No one dragged her into the water!” Matthew Kings emphasized. If someone had indeed dragged Veronica Murphy into the lake, she would have easily drowned.
Blue Shu received a message, which could be a diversion tactic by the real culprit, intending to delay time and create better conditions for escaping the scene.
“You underestimate Veronica too much,” Miguel Lynch said with a sigh, looking out of the window. Despite constantly comforting Matthew Kings, Miguel Lynch had to admit that he was also anxious and worried. On the way, Matthew Kings called Blue Shu, “Blue Shu, what’s the situation with the crew?”
“I’ve already found out. Someone tampered with Veronica Murphy’s WeChat account, but we have no information about what happened after she fell into the water.”
Blue Shu was still inside the film and television city, but she had been investigating the surveillance cameras in the car.
She continued, “The film and television city covers a very large area, and there are a lot of visitors. There are blind spots in the surveillance cameras around Blue Star Lake, which cannot be fully covered.”
Having blind spots in surveillance cameras was equivalent to being in the dark, making it easy to do anything.
From this, it could be inferred that the mastermind behind the scenes must be very familiar with the film and television city.
“Still unable to contact Roni?” he asked. Blue Shu replied desolately, “No contact.”
Matthew Kings hung up the phone directly and immediately ordered his subordinates to add manpower to search for Veronica Murphy.
In the car, Miguel Lynch saw that Matthew Kings was distraught and quickly said, “You publicly announced a divorce with Veronica. Now you’re actively looking for her. Aren’t you afraid of arousing suspicion about your relationship?”
“Nothing is more important than Roni’s life!”
Announcing a divorce publicly was to protect her completely. And now, with Veronica Murphy missing and her life unknown, what harm would it do if others knew about his relationship with her?
An hour and a half later, the car arrived at Lothen Film and Television City. Matthew Kings went straight to the crew after getting out of the car. He quickly went to find Sam Symons.
His appearance caused a small commotion in the crew, and within a few minutes, Eviette Robins received the news. Assistant Shannon entered the lounge, her smile radiant as she said, “Miss Robins, President Kings is here. You should go and see him.”
Eviette Robins was in the middle of a conversation with Melvin Winson, but upon hearing that Matthew Kings had arrived, her heart skipped a beat, filled with both fear and anticipation.
He had come so quickly.
Eviette Robins set down the pillow and immediately stood up, leaving the lounge.
Melvin Winson, who had been “forgotten,” had a disappointed expression on his face. His beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with indescribable sadness.
Why do people not cherish those right in front of them? He chuckled self-deprecatingly, pursed his lips, shook his head, and finally got up and left.
In Sam Symons’ lounge, the appearance of Matthew Kings was like that of a god descending from the heavens, causing both Sam Symons and Director Zhao to feel a heavy sense of pressure.
Especially since he was accompanied by the Lu family’s host, Miguel Lynch. The sudden arrival of these two influential figures naturally meant that they were here to hold someone accountable.
“Where is she?” Matthew Kings’ handsome face darkened, his gaze sharp and piercing, making one feel as if they were in an icy cave, shivering from the cold.
Sam Symons’ nervous Adam’s apple bobbed as he forced a flattering smile. “Hehe, President Kings, please don’t worry. The matter is currently under investigation. Just now, Veronica Murphy’s assistant came to inform me that she has already been rescued, and she is currently in the hospital.”
“I’m asking you, have you found her?” Matthew Kings narrowed his eyes, a chilling aura emanating from between his brows.
