Mr. Marsh’s Twins

“Remember.” His thin lips parted, his eyes sharp like a hawk, “Try not to cause any fatalities, give her the worst punishment, and I’ll take responsibility if anything goes wrong.”

“Okay.”

“After everything’s done, just send me a message, and you guys lay low for now,” Spencer trusted them completely, and he remained unruffled, “I’ll handle the rest, I’ll take the fall if necessary.”

“Understood, Spencer.”

Spencer was a loyal person, and those who knew him understood that, which is why many were willing to go to great lengths for him.

The call ended, his stern face once again covered in frost. Angel’s good days were over, she wouldn’t be showing up on set tomorrow.

Replacing the actress was just a matter of time.

At the hospital, Harlan arrived at Summer’s hospital room with a bunch of orchids, the door open and sunlight streaming in, a gentle breeze wafting through the window.

There, the girl lay in bed with an IV, seemingly asleep with her eyes closed.

Elisa sat in a chair, keeping watch by her bedside.

It was quiet, the kind of quiet where you could hear a pin drop.From NôvelDrama.Org.

Harlan stepped inside without knocking, not wanting to disturb. Elisa turned at the sound, surprised to see him holding a large bouquet of flowers, the faint fragrance hitting her nose.

She stood up and greeted him softly, “Mr. Harlan,” placing a finger to her lips, gesturing for silence.

Harlan nodded, not saying a word.

Seeing Summer hooked up to the IV, pale and weak with her eyes closed, he felt a pang of heartache.

Harlan didn’t stay long, placing the orchids gently by the bedside table, taking a loving look at the girl before following Elisa out of the room and softly closing the door behind him.

They stood by the terrace at the end of the hospital corridor.

“Mr. Harlan,” Elisa faced him, “thank you for coming to see Summer.”

“What did the doctor say?” he asked because he didn’t believe Spencer’s words.

Elisa recounted Dr. Watson’s words honestly, “Summer was food poisoned, the doctor said it was good she was brought in time, had her stomach pumped, and is out of danger now. If she had been brought in any later, it would’ve been serious. She needs to stay in the hospital for observation for three days due to her weakened state.”

“Food poisoning…” the man murmured, his brows furrowed.

Elisa sighed softly, slightly annoyed, “Actually, it was someone poisoning her intentionally.”

Harlan looked at her intently, “Angel?”

…”Elisa was a bit surprised, wide-eyed and stunned for a moment, “How did you know?”

He took out his phone, showing her the surveillance footage he had obtained, “Is this Summer’s water bottle? Take a look.”

“Yes!” the girl answered with certainty, “This is Summer’s! I gave it to her!”

“The water was tampered with,” Harlan stated, “This is her trying to destroy evidence, captured by the only camera at the end of the hallway. She switched out the water, so the test results showed it was clean.”

“You… also suspect her?” Elisa was astonished, “You had it tested?”

“When Summer was being treated, I came to the hospital, heard your suspicions, and went back to the set to gather evidence,” Harlan explained, “But I ran into Spencer, he bailed out Angel.”

“How can that be?” Elisa couldn’t believe it, “He bailed out Angel?”

He nodded, affirming, “Really, or else she would’ve been taken by the police by now.”

“Did he tell you not to call the police?” Elisa inquired.

“Yes,” Harlan was angry, “I don’t understand why he suddenly defended that woman! She was about to confess, her face was written with lies!”

Elisa’s heart sank at the news, her eyes filled with worry.

“What’s wrong?” Harlan sensed her distress, asking in confusion.

Elisa looked up, “Because… he’s going to deal with it in his own way.”

Harlan didn’t quite grasp her meaning, “What do you mean?”

Elisa explained to him, “Angel might be in danger, he’s going to take matters into his own hands!”

…”Harlan was stunned.

So… Spencer wasn’t indifferent to Summer, he was going to personally seek justice for her? Knowing that there was no evidence, the police couldn’t touch her?
