Kimberly took the water and was silent for a while before sighing, “I was too naive. I didn’t expect Keith to be such a bastard.”
“I have to call my parents. Excuse me for a moment.”
Kimberly took the phone and found a quiet place to call her mother. It rang for a few times before someone answered.
“Oh, you even know you have a mother? I thought you had fully grown up and were ready to leave home.” A voice filled with dissatisfaction and worry sounded from the other end of the line.
After all, she was the one who got married in a flash, so Kimberly did not dare to refute her. After her mother’s anger subsided, she slowly said, “Mom… I just want to tell you something. Please don’t be agitated. I’m fine now.”
“I was on a mountain filming a variety show, and Keith, my ex-boyfriend, called me to a remote place. He wanted to kill me but he backfired. Now he’s been bitten by a poisonous snake and is in the hospital.”
“I’m fine. I broke up with him because he was after my money. They had planned it from the beginning.”
Kimberly told her mother about her findings in detail. In the end, she sighed. “Luckily, James helped me. He’s really a very good person.”
“I had thought that Keith was just a little greedy. I didn’t expect that he is such a rotten person. Don’t worry, leave this matter to us.”
Her mother’s voice sounded very angry, but there was also calmness in it. “But don’t think that this will be the end of it. I haven’t settled the score with you yet.”
Kimberly did not expect this matter to remain unresolved, so she replied resentfully, “Alright, Mom, can you get him banned? I can handle the rest myself.”
His mother asked suspiciously, “You? Can you do it yourself? What do you want to do?”
“I’ll just give him a small punishment. Don’t worry, what else can I do? At most, I’ll find someone to teach him a lesson.”
“Alright then, keep yourself out of it and don’t leave any traces behind. You’ve grown up and don’t need your mother to teach you anymore.”
After hanging up the phone, Kimberly went back to her room. To her surprise, James and Andrew were still in the room.
“You didn’t go back?” Kimberly closed the door and asked casually, “Are you waiting for me to have dinner with you?”
“Yes, James and I are starving to death.” Andrew rubbed his belly exaggeratedly.
And as always, James said, “Dumplings.”
“No dumplings!” Kimberly, who had eaten countless dumplings this month, almost couldn’t laugh. She ignored James and said, “Andrew, do you have anyone under you? Just a few thugs. I’ll pay for them!”
“You have money?” James interrupted. “I remember you used my credit card.”
“I do! I’ll use your card to pay Andrew.” Kimberly replied with a fake smile.
“…”
“Keith? or George?”
Kimberly pondered for a moment and said, “Let’s don’t bother with Keith and George. I plan to catch the mastermind behind them. It’s best to solve it in one go. Otherwise, it’ll be hard to find any clues if they run away.”
“As for Keith… I have a good suggestion for you. Do you want to hear it?” As an experienced person, Andrew took the initiative to share it with her. “As for me, I have a little background, so I also have a rival.”
“Why don’t you break Keith’s leg and give it to him? I can guarantee that he’ll definitely have a wonderful life there. After all, people like us have more tricks up our sleeves than you can imagine. In this way, we’ll both benefit from it. I won’t take your money.”
Andrew rubbed his chin in thought. He really couldn’t accept James’s money. If he accepted it, he might use some disgusting method to make him return it.
“Is that okay? I can guarantee that Keith will be out of showbiz for a period of time, maybe a few years or a decade, or even a lifetime. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Kimberly crossed her arms and stood aside in an exceptionally good mood. “Of course I want him to be as miserable as possible.”
“As long as he can survive in the hospital, there won’t be a problem.” Andrew made a little joke. “If he unfortunately dies, then we don’t seem to have any other options. We can’t find a psychic.”
Kimberly was in a good mood now that she had finally solved a big problem. She felt hungry as soon as she relaxed. “Do you want to go for dinner?” She asked satisfactorily.
James’s eyes lit up. “Dumplings?”
“Dumplings.” Kimberly looked at her savior and gave in helplessly.
It was beef leek dumplings today.
