Chapter 26: Olivier Petit Is Missing
Eric reported accordingly, "Miss Evans did indeed move out of the Evans Mansion, she is now living in
her mother's former apartment. Also, she and Martin did fall out because of Gretchen."
August raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "This brat has really seen the light, eh?"
"I suppose Miss Evans must've found out about the dirty things that Martin did behind her back, so she
made up her mind."
Eric guessed.
August snorted in response. "Let's not make such early conclusions, shall we? Based on what I know
of her, she might do something else later. Let's just wait and see..."
After leaving the Reed Corporation building, Gwenda was in a good mood.
Although she had not gotten August to budge, she still got a huge sum of money from him.
With this 10 million, her studio would have the capital to commence business.
The following operations would be smoother than ever.
Next to her, Cecilia had been watching Gwenda for a while before she finally plucked up the courage to
ask, "Gwenda, you called the Reed's Group CEO your cousin earlier. Are you the young miss of KG
Entertainment?"
"Yep."
Gwenda did not deny it.
"Then why did you take me out of KG Entertainment?" Cecilia was a little nervous.
Knowing that she was beginning to freak out, Gwenda patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I
mean you no harm. Besides, my purpose is quite simple, really. I just want to make money through
you. So, all you have to do is focus on singing in the future."
Hearing this, Cecilia bit her lip. "Alright..."
Though she did not know why Gwenda was going against her own family, Cecilia figured that she had
nothing to worry about since Gwenda said so. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
At any rate, she did not have any other way out. She had no further options other than to move forward
with the current plan.
"Well, let's not be mopey, shall we? Now that we've got the money, the first thing we've got to do is to
find a studio and record your songs."
As she said that, Gwenda dragged Cecilia into the car.
They arrived at a studio pretty quickly.
For the rest of the day, Cecilia recorded songs under Gwenda's supervision.
Although she did not know how Gwenda knew she had a song called "Hibernation", she did not ask
any questions and just recorded songs as instructed.
Soon, the final product was ready.
Gwenda only listened once and approved it.
Then, she swiftly made an account on a short video app, and released a video of Cecilia's
"Hibernation" recording with it.
"Done!"
The next thing to do was to wait for the video to gather an audience.
By the time she was done with it all, it was already 10 pm.
Having recorded for the whole day, Cecilia was also exhausted.
Seeing this, Gwenda knew she could not ask more of her and just told Cecilia to retire early for the day.
"Go back and rest for a few days. Later, I'll be creating a Twitter account for you. All you need to do by
then is to just send out a tweet every now and then, which will be enough."
"Will it really work?"
Cecilia's voice was a little hoarse from the recording session, but her nervousness could be heard
nonetheless.
"Of course it will, you'll find out soon enough."
Gwenda patted her shoulder reassuringly before leaving by hailing a taxi.
Watching her leave, Cecilia took out her phone and downloaded the app that Gwenda used, searching
for the video that she posted. Seeing the sad amount of comments and views, Cecilia shook her head
helplessly.
The more she thought about it, the more unreliable the plan felt...
It was eleven pm when Gwenda got back to her apartment.
She did not expect the house to be dark.
The lights lit up when Gwenda switched them on. Only then did she realise that Olivier's bedroom door
was open.
He was clearly not at home.
...
At this hour of the night, where could he have gone?
