Chapter 1800
The police showed up and headed to the third floor to gather evidence.
Magdalen instructed the manager to comfort the injured, encouraging them to seek medical attention first, with
monetary compensation to be discussed later.
Taking advantage of Magdalen’s momentary preoccupation, Estelle slipped away to the restroom.
Her palms were stained with blood. After cleaning herself up, she leaned against the sink, lost in thought.
The music box had been sent from overseas, but that didn’t necessarily mean that the person out to harm
Magdalen was abroad.
Magdalen was always flamboyant in her actions, particularly when dealing with the women who tried to seduce
Morrison. She never held back, and had rubbed many people the wrong way.
But whoever dared to attempt on her life so brazenly must bear her a deep grudge and wield significant power.

She was determined to expose this person before the wedding. Or she wouldn’t be able to rest easy.
After lingering in the restroom for a while, Estelle was about to leave when she overheard a phone conversation
from a nearby corner.
“Antonia, was it you?”
It was Kevin’s voice.
Estelle paused in her steps, a chill sweeping across her eyes, narrowing them.
Kevin seemed agitated by the other end’s response, “I know it was you. Louis told me you’d been inquiring about a
new type of explosive. I was worried something happened at your home, not realizing you intended to take revenge
on Magdalen!”
“Have you lost your mind?”
“Murder is punishable by law!”
Antonia, too, sounded heated. Even from a distance, Estelle could hear her shouting through the phone, “I can’t
swallow this indignity. I want revenge!
Kevin, you’ve already betrayed me. What right do you have to lecture me?”
“Yes, I betrayed you. I fell for Magdalen. You can come at me, but stop hurting Magdalen!” Kevin yelled.
“I couldn’t care less about who you fancy. I just want to kill Magdalen!”
Antonia screamed her throat raw, “I won’t let anyone who hurt me off the hook, and that includes Estelle. Tell her to
watch her back!”
“Antonia, I’m begging you. Stop taking grudges for the past. You all would get hurt if you continue doing something
outrageous. You and Morrison are over.”
Kevin attempted to keep on persuading Antonia, while Estelle had heard enough. She turned on her heel and
walked back to the lounge.
Upon her return, Magdalen was just wrapping up with the police. Estelle picked up her bag and said to her, “There’s

“What thing?” Still shaken from the earlier explosion, Magdalen was worried about Estelle leaving alone.
“I just got a call from the set. They want me back.’ Estelle replied nonchalantly, “I’ll call you later”
Magdalen nodded, “Be careful”
“I willl” Estelle slightly nodded in return before turning to leave.
After Estelle left, Kevin walked over from behind.
All the injured had been taken care of and the police had collected evidence, ready to conduct an investigation at
the customs.
Magdalen was about to leave as well when Kevin caught up with her, “Magdalen, are you okay?”
Magdalen stopped and turned around, her expression indifferent, “You love me?”
Kevin nodded instantly, “Yes, Magdalen, I really love you.”
“I find your affection contemptible!” Magdalen scoffed, “When I was holding that music box earlier, you backed
away, didn’t you? Is that what you call loving someone?”
She was holding a bomb, and everyone was backing away from her, everyone except Ella, who ran towards her.
Kevin was taken aback, his face a picture of embarrassment.
Indeed, he had instinctively backed away earlier.
