The security cameras didn’t catch what Addison said to the person waiting by the shore, but it was clear as day when the stranger handed her a bag.
As soon as Addison got the goods, she ducked around to the kitchen’s back corner, slipped most of the bag’s contents to a kitchen hand, and tucked a few smaller packages away for herself before heading back to her room.
Once Addison was gone, the woman by the water finally turned around. Everyone watching the footage sucked in a sharp breath.
It was Amy.
That was the end of the first video.
Anyone paying attention could connect the dots—no wild guesses needed. The truth was right there.
But the footage didn’t stop.
The next clip dropped immediately.
This time, Addison wasn’t just sabotaging her own team. She was targeting Woods Corporation too, slipping an unopened pack of cookies to them.
Because the first person to get sick was from International Glam, and the organizers had searched the kitchen, nobody on the Woods team ever suspected Addison. She seemed the least likely person to poison anyone.
During those days, hardly anyone even went to the kitchen. People either ate the packaged meals sent by the organizers or grabbed basic stuff like bread or instant noodles.
So when Addison offered the cookies, nobody thought twice. No one suspected a thing.
That’s how she got them.
With these videos out, the whole poisoning scandal unraveled in front of everyone.
Meanwhile, people online had already dug up Addison’s account. The trolls who’d been trashing Fiona suddenly went radio silent, not daring to say a word.
