Chapter 276 Deciding to Be Honest With Him
Boris was certain that this was his first time meeting Mrs. Lee and Mr. Lee, but Mrs. Lee asked about his eyes, and Mr. Lee referred to him as Mr. Lewis.
If Mrs. Lee had a m*ntal illness and mentioned Boris’ eyes, it could be considered as delusional
speech.
If Mr. Lee was m*ntally stable, how could he know Boris?
Could it be that they were also related to what had happened five years ago?
This speculation uplifted Boris, and he decided to follow this lead and investigate further.
Boris made a phone call and said, “Dunn, have you arrived at Scope Island? Please help me check. someone’s address.”
The presence of a frightened horse in the stable touched the hearts of everyone in the programme.
Nina paced back and forth anxiously, muttering to herself, “I hope everything is okay, I hope everything is okay, it must be okay!”
The crazed behavior of the horse earlier really frightened all of them.
Ziana was riding on top of the horse, and it seemed like she could be thrown off at any moment. Just looking at it was heart-stopping.
After pacing in circles for a while, Nina went to ask the production team, “How could a perfectly fine horse become s*ooked like that?”
The director who was filming was already scared out of his wits. If something happened to Ziana, they wouldn’t be able to afford the consequences.
Not only that, but they were also afraid that the show would be ruined.
He had a look of despair on his face as he said, “I don’t know, it was an accident. I just hope that Miss Scott is okay. As long as she’s safe, everything else can be dealt with.”
Nina stomped her foot and turned around, only to see silent Sean.
Sean had an expressionless face and a gloomy look in his eyes, which sent shivers down people’s
spines.
Nina suddenly had a thought in her mind, could it be that this incident was caused by Sean not getting Ziana’s affection, and thus he acted out of jealousy?
After all, Sean’s appearance looked very sinister.
“Coming! It’s back!” Susan nudged Nina and excitedly alerted, “Ziana is back!”
Nina looked over quickly and saw Ziana riding a horse in high spirits, followed by a mighty team, like a queen visiting the world.
Seeing that Ziana was safe, a group of people became very excited. When she dismounted from her horse, they eagerly surrounded her to express their concern.
“Ziana! You are finally back!”
“Miss Scott, are you okay?”
Ziana did not reveal the reason for the horse’s panic, she just said, “It was just an accident, maybe it was too hot today. Don’t worry, everyone.”
Seeing that Ziana was indeed lively and energetic, everyone’s hanging hearts fell back into their stomachs, and they were in the mood to joke about her and Edison.
Nina made faces at Ziana and said, “Did Edi save you? Wow, the classic story of a hero saving a beauty! How romantic!”
Ziana’s smiling face froze for a moment. She was neither denied nor admitted.
Edison knew what she meant and didn’t clarify anything.
After joking around for a while, the director reminded everyone, “Since everything is okay, let’s continue with the training. The live broadcast is still ongoing.”
Ziana was accompanied by Nina and Susan, one on her left and the other on her right, as they walked towards the shade of the trees.
Sean walked towards Ziana and said, “Ziana, I’m glad you’re okay. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to ride a horse, otherwise, I would have gone to save you.”
Ziana only nodded her head and left without saying a word.
Sean shrugged helplessly, feeling like he had brought it upon himself once again. This scene happened to be seen by Darlene.
Darlene sent a text message to Sean with a cold face.
Darlene: [Did you do something to Ziana’s horse?]
Sean heard his phone ringing, looked at it and smirked at Darlene.
Darlene turned her head away with a disdainful look as if she didn’t care.
Darlene: [Don’t look at me! I don’t want others to know about our relationship!]
Sean snorted softly, leaned on the railing, and replied to the message.
Sean: [You can’t wait to be a stranger with me, how can others find out our relationship?]
Darlene: [Netizens have sharper eyes than you think. Let’s get to the point, did you do it or not?]
Sean: [Yeah, it’s a pity Ziana wasn’t hurt at all.]
Darlene: [I knew it would be like this! She’s quite smart, don’t go bothering her anymore. First deal
with the woman on Boris side.]
Sean: [Can she be as smart as yours? You are an extraordinarily beautiful woman.]
Darlene: [Get out!]
Upon seeing this message, Sean chuckled with joy.
Sean calmly put away his phone and glanced at Darlene, who had already walked away twisting her
waist and limbs.
Sean: [I will try to approach Vivi these days. Don’t worry, I will do what I promised you.]
Sean waited for a while after sending the message, but he did not receive any response.
He took it used to that when he p*ssed Darlene off, she would gamble and not reply.
At five o’clock in the afternoon.
The day of recording was over and the rest of the day was free time for individuals.
After all, the cost of coming to Scope Island was very expensive, and the staff of the program team. didn’t want to waste this good opportunity to play.
So after work was over, Mr. Zern informed everyone that they could move around freely, but paid attention to keep safe.
Nina and Susan wanted to ask Ziana to go out together, but Ziana refused.
“I have to go home for something today, you guys have fun first.” Ziana hugged Nina and Susan one by one, “The show’s gears have been adjusted and now you guys can have the highest and best service you want on top of the island, have a good time and remember to take lots of photos.”
Ziana thought, “Now that I have returned to the door of my house, how can I still live outside?”
There was also her baby Ewen at home, who was very clingy to her now and slept with her every night, Ziana was also greedy for such parent-child moments.
Moreover, there was another important reason for her to go home today.
After saying goodbye to Nina and Susan, Ziana said goodbye to Edison before boarding the helicopter and heading straight to the Scott family’s Castle.
When entering the hall, Max and Yudel were sitting on the sofa talking.
Seeing Ziana coming back, the two turned their heads respectively.
“Daddy!” Ziana Scott coquettishly called out, “Yudel!”
Yudel pushed his glasses and said, “You’re back. Just in time. I found out what you asked me to investigate.”
Ziana sat next to him, took a sip of tea, and said, “Who is it?”
Yudel picked up the computer and clicked on secret video surveillance. On the screen, the man’s face was so tightly covered that they couldn’t see his face clearly.
“Who is this?” Ziana didn’t recognize him, “But I thought the silhouette looked familiar.”
Yudel zoomed in on the man’s left wrist to reveal the edge of the strap.
Ziana now had an impression, “Sean has the same watch.”
“The thing that scared the horse was caused by Sean.” Yudel smiled gracefully, but his eyes lacked warmth. “How did you offend him?”
“I don’t know, but I felt uncomfortable the first time I saw him,” Ziana rubbed her forehead. “I always feel like Sean has some kind of agenda in approaching me. Earlier, I even found out that he seems to have a conflict with Boris.”
“You investigated him?” Yudel looked puzzled. “When did you do that? What’s the matter between
him and Boris?”
Ziana then told Yudel and Max about the email and shared her own speculation, “Boris told me that he suspects Sean is related to the Lewis family’s incident five years ago. He asked me to be cautious. around Sean. Yudel, I don’t think it’s that simple. Can you have someone continue to investigate?”
Yudel was slightly surprised and solemnly said, “Okay, I’ll have someone investigate. Sean can’t
rest easily about setting you up today either.”
“Of course,” Ziana sneered, “Tie Sean up on the most ill-tempered horse and take him for a walk
all night.”
“I’ll leave this matter to Donald,” Yudel thought for a moment and couldn’t help but ask, “Do you still have contact with Boris?”
“Boris came to the island for a tour, and coincidentally, he was there when my horse got scared today. He even helped me,” Ziana mentioned Boris and naturally didn’t forget about Mrs. Lee whom she met today, so she changed the subject. “Yudel, do you remember Mrs. Lee, our family’s maid who took care of me since I was little?”
“I remember,” Yudel’s lips curved slightly downwards. “What’s the matter?”
“Why did she go crazy?” Ziana was curious, “Why did she suddenly have a m*ntal illness? I was not
at home during that time, you should know, right?”
Yudel looked at Max, who drank tea calmly.
Yudel nodded, “I know. Mrs. Lee drowned and then suffered from extreme shock, which affected her m*ntal state. She went abroad for treatment, and her condition has improved a lot now. Why do you suddenly ask about her?”
“I saw Mrs. Lee today.” Ziana mentioned it with a distressed tone, “She is still ill, talking nonsense. And she told me to run, feeling sorry for me. She said that it was she who caused I was arrested. Anyway, it’s weird. If I wasn’t very sure that there was no such thing, I would have believed her
words.”
Yudel said calmly, “She has drowned, so she will have a slight paranoia of persecution, and she will always fantasize about being chased and killed.”
“Oh?” Ziana suddenly realized, “No wonder. Mrs. Lee is a very close person. She is sick, and this. kind of disease is not easy to cure. Yudel, you help find someone to treat her, and hope that she can
be cured.”
“Right.” Yudel said.
Ziana got his consent, got up with a smile, and said goodbye, “Father, Yudel, you guys continue talking, and I’m going to accompany Ewen!”
Ziana bounced away, leaving two people with different minds.
After watching her get into the elevator with his own eyes, Yudel shut down the computer all of a sudden, “Donald! Report everything that happened to Miss Scott today!”
we
Donald briefly summarized what could be seen on the live broadcast. As for what happened outside of it, it was the part where Ziana’s horse got scared and ran into the orchard.
Donald only spoke about what he knew, “After receiving a call from Miss Scott, I led my men up the mountain. On the way, we met Edison, and we went together to see Miss Scott. When we arrived, we saw that she was accompanied by Boris, and Mrs. Lee and Mr. Lee hadn’t gone far. Mr. Lee and Mrs. Lee are in charge of that fruit orchard, so it wasn’t strange for them to be there.”
Yudel was very thoughtful and quick to connect the dots.
“Mrs. Lee must have said something when she saw Ziana and Boris.” He clenched his fists, “Dad, did Boris find out something? Don’t you really need me to do something? Have you really made your decision?”
Since Max received a call from Zezili, he knew that the events from five years ago could not be kept secret for much longer.
Unexpectedly, Boris found Scope Island very quickly and came here, and by coincidence, he also
met Olivia.
Since it had come to this point, Max sighed and said, “No need. The truth will come out sooner or later. Let Boris investigate. It’s been five years, and it’s time to be honest with him.”
