Chapter 219
Cecelia had been taken to the police station ?
Wendy’s face turned pale as she hung up the phone . She turned to Halsey . “ Halsey , I need to go to the police station ! ”
“ I’ll go with you , ” Halsey replied , already following her .
At the police station , Wendy and Halsey found Cecelia locked in a holding cell . Wendy grasped Cecelia’s cold hands . “ Cecelia , what happened ? Why are you here ? ”
Cecelia’s face was pale , and she looked utterly confused . “ Wendy , this is all connected to that celebrity , Luna Fisher . ”
Cecelia explained what had happened .
“ Luna went to Ella Magazine for a photoshoot . They needed her to do a stunt with a wire , but someone had cut the wire in advance . Luna fell , and she pointed at.me , saying she saw me cut the wire . The police arrested me right away , Please , Wendy , you have to believe me ! I didn’t do it ! I didn’t cut the wire . I have no reason to harm her ! ”
Cecelia’s voice was frantic . Luna had falsely accused her , making it look like she had tried to kill her .
Halsey shook her head , equally puzzled . “ Who would cut the wire ? Cecelia didn’t do it , so why is Luna accusing her ? Luna and Cecelia don’t have any problems with each other , do they ? ”
Cecelia , too , was baffled . “ Exactly ! I don’t know why she accused me . I’ve never wronged her . ”
Wendy’s clear , thoughtful gaze flickered for a moment as if a realization crossed her mind . She gently reassured Cecelia , “ Don’t worry . I’ll go speak to Luna . As soon as she rescinds her statement , you’ll be free . ”
Wendy and Halsey headed to the hospital , where Halsey spoke up . “ Wendy , do you think Luna set Cecelia up ? It doesn’t make sense . Cecelia is your best friend , after all . ”
Wendy had suspected as much , but she chose not to voice her concerns .
In the VIP room of the hospital , Luna sat on the bed . Ella Magazine had top – notch safety measures , so even though the wire had snapped , the thick foam padding below had prevented any serious injury . Luna was perfectly fine ,
When Wendy and Halsey entered the room , Luna showed no surprise . She smiled , her lips curling into a sly grin . ” Hey , Wendy , Halsey . ”
Wendy approached the bed , glancing at Luna’s supposed injury . “ Luna , are you okay ? ”
Luna nodded lightly . “ I’m fine . ”

“ We just came from the police station , ” Halsey said . “ Cecelia couldn’t have cut the wire . Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake !
Wendy’s gaze fixed on Luna . “ Luna , Cecelia is my best friend . I hope you’ll rescind your statement and release her .

Luna , lying back lazily on the bed , suddenly said , “ I’m a little thirsty. ”
Her assistant immediately jumped up . “ I’ll get you some water . ”

Luna didn’t even look at the assistant as she sharply said , “ didn’t ask you to get it ! ”
The assistant froze , awkwardly standing still .
Luna then turned her gaze to Wendy , and it was clear what he wanted . She expected Wendy to get the water . Halsey opened her mouth to say something , but Wendy raised a hand to stop her . “ I’ll get it . ”
Wendy went to the side and poured a glass of water before handing it to Luna .
Luna smiled slyly . “ Thank you , Wendy . ”
But as Luna reached for the cup , her expression suddenly changed . With a quick motion , she knocked the cup out of Wendy’s hand . “ The water’s so hot ! Are you trying to burn me? ”
The water splashed all over Wendy’s hands and clothes .
Halsey immediately grabbed some napkins and began wiping Wendy down . “ Luna , what’s your problem ? You’ve been acting strange with Wendy lately ! Are you targeting her ? ”
