Tina said, “I don’t know the specifics either. All I know is that someone spiked the bottle of wine, and the drug was specially concocted. That’s about it. Oh yeah, Serena was dealing with a guy named Hal at the time. He’s a regular in the underground fight ring.”
1 see. But why are you telling me all this now, Tina?” Why would Tina suddenly spill the beans?
Tina clenched her fists. “Whatever. Believe it or not. I’m not helping Serena anymore. I know her true colors. I’ve worked under her for three years. Every time there’s a problem, she throws someone else under the bus, only looking out for herself.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe envied Allison. She didn’t have Allison’s stunning beauty, her perfect figure, or her good luck, and working for Sarah was a breeze compared to Serena. She let out a sigh. “Allison, you’re lucky. You might not know this, but a lot of us envy you.”
On Wednesday, Allison arrived at Stellarius Tower on time.
Jennifer’s class was only three hours in the morning. Allison took diligent notes. At the end of the class, she stretched her shoulders and got ready to leave. Even though it was only a short three hours, she learned a lot.
She didn’t expect to bump into Mandy here. Mandy saw her too, and, noticing the notebook in her hand, said, “Writing all this down is pointless, and so is memorizing it. You need to turn it into your acting skills.”
“Thanks for the tip.” Allison felt the provocation from Mandy, so she just responded lightly, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and prepared to leave.

Before she could finish, a stranger spoke on the other end of the line, “Are you this lady’s daughter? She suddenly fainted on the roadside. You should get here quick.”
Allison turned pale. She rushed to the scene as fast as she could. By the time she arrived, an ambulance was already there. She walked briskly towards the crowd and saw Grace lying pale on the ground. The paramedics were providing immediate medical attention and lifting her onto the stretcher Allison rushed up. “I’m her daughter!”
She got into the ambulance and answered the doctor’s questions about her mother’s condition. She watched the doctor take various emergency measures. The ambulance raced to the hospital, where Grace was taken to the emergency room.
Allison felt a chill down her spine. She leaned against the wall, praying in her heart. партег
