Hendrix put me on the bed as I was a little sleepy after reaching the villa. He left after instructing the midwives.
I was feeling very sleepy lying on the bed, however, I could not sleep.
I took out my phone to call Kelsey. She answered my call almost immediately.
"Miss Reid, are you... are you okay?" she asked tentatively.
"Did you watch the news?" I asked.
"Yes!" she continued after pausing for a moment, "I asked my friend to check but to no avail. The surveillance video of the hotel has been destroyed, and there is no way to find out!"
I nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "You don't have to check that anymore. Just keep an eye on Chloe, find out if she had any contact with Andrea and Nerissa lately."
She was a little confused and asked, "Chloe? Why do you want to check on her?"
"It is just a wild guess, and nothing has been confirmed. Find out what you can and we will see into it later."
There is no need for Kelsey to continue her investigation as Hendrix and Aaron would have been a lot faster than her in checking the necessary.
After a long time, she nodded, "Okay, I understand!"
I laid on the bed after hanging up the phone. I still could not sleep. I felt immensely complex and complicated.
As I was about to fall asleep, I heard noises from the first floor.
I got agitated thus I woke up and walked out of the bedroom.
"Tell Arianna to come out!" Andrea yelled like a madwoman in the living room.
The midwives and nanny tried their best to stop and dragged her out of the villa. The bodyguards came and helped.
The bodyguard lifted her up and started to walk out.
Valerie looked at her coldly, "You knew how I treated you! Look at you now? What have you done to yourself? Don't you have remorse,
Andrea?"
Andrea broke down, "Why should I change when I did nothing wrong? It's obviously your fault and you blamed me for it. Why?"
Valerie was so angry that she wanted to slap her again. Pedro stopped her, "That's enough. Don't cause any more trouble."
He looked at the bodyguards behind him and said, "Help Andrea up and send her back."
Andrea pushed the bodyguard away when he tried to pull her up. She roared, "Get away from me. Don't touch me. I didn't hurt her at all. Why are you blaming me?"
Andrea pointed at me, looked aggrieved.
Valerie felt a flicker of disgust and hatred seeing Andrea, "Who else could it be? You've met Nerissa secretly many times. Do you think I don't know what you've discussed with her?"
