The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2019

Sitting in a cafe, I waited for Keith quietly.

I could vaguely hear the cries of the child from my call with him just now. He was probably still staying at home and had not gone looking for a job.

Things sure were different now.

I sighed.

"Why are you sighing, Miss Lane?"

The familiar voice pulled my thoughts back. Looking at the familiar face in front of me, I smiled lightly. "Long time no see."

"Long time no see." He still looked so spirited and more energetic than before. His complexion looked so much better without work ravaging him.

It looked like Theo had really tormented him.

"It should be easy for you to find another job with your talents. Why haven't you found a new job?"

"How did you know that, Miss Lane?"

"I heard a child crying over the phone just now, so I figured you were probably home. It's also work hours now, so it wasn't difficult to put two and two together," I slowly said.

As if to agree, Keith nodded. "Well, I used to be so busy with work that I didn't have time to spend with my family. Since I finally have more time now, I just want to take it slow and spend more time with them. I missed out on a lot when my child was growing up. I can't miss it this time."

Without a job, he now looked like he was glowing with fatherhood. He looked very soft.

I agreed with his words. One really should not miss their child's growth.

"I see. You can rest more, then."

"You came looking for me out of the blue, Miss Lane. What's the situation?" It was Keith who cut to the chase first.

I mulled things over and thought about how I should start. After pondering for a moment, I said leisurely, "I want to look into someone, but I don't know if Theo has told you about her before."

"Who is it?"

"Heather."

Hearing the name, I caught a flash of surprise in Keith's eyes. It was apparent that he knew about her.

He lowered his head and pondered

for a long time. I did not know what

he was thinking and did not press him. Keith slowly looked up after that and met my expectant gaze. "Why are you suddenly asking about her?"

"I want to learn about her because she's a sweetheart of my friend."

Keith put his hands on the table, looking a little perplexed. "Heather is someone no one wants to talk about anymore. Besides, she's also no longer with us, so there's nothing to say." Someone no one wanted to talk about?

I did not quite understand that. I shook my head and looked at Keith. "Why don't people want to talk about her?"

I could understand it if it was Drover

who thought talking about her was too painful as he had lost his lover. could also understand if Nectarine Entertainment wanted to block news about her and not bring her up since Heather was an artist under them and they had been affected by her accident.

As for the others, to them, Heather was just a famous artist. There were countless, outstanding artists in the entertainment circle, and Heather was just one of them. "Not a single snowflake is spared when an avalanche comes crashing down. What happened to her was such a shame. That's why even I am unwilling to talk about her."

It turned out that it was because she had been too wonderful.

Snowflake... Snow white.

He was definitely talking about her.

"I just went to Nectarine Entertainment's archives to look for her, but I couldn't find anything on her. That's why I wanted to ask you," I told Keith frankly.

Keith was taken aback by what I did. "You're as resolute as usual in the way you do things, Miss Lane, but I suppose it must have been in vain. You probably found nothing." "You're right. I didn't find anything." I nodded.

Keith spread his hands. "After the incident, President Grant blocked all news about it and spent an entire month creating a distraction to brainwash everyone into forgetting about it so that they wouldn't talk about it. As for her information, President Grant has also kept it locked up in a safe."

In a safe...
