Chapter 690
Eaton frowned, “The coffee was from your friend?”
“Yes, my outfit was sabotaged, and my friend brought me a new one and coffee for everyone. Not all the coffee had coconut
juice in it. There were many flavors; how could he know Sydney would choose the one with coconut juice? This doesn’t make
sense at all.”
Eaton pondered if what Celeste said was true, It could be an accident.
But something about this accident felt off
“Sydney’s side has reported it to the police. They might question you in the next few days, answer truthfully. If reporters are
waiting for you, don’t respond and try to stay
indoors”
“I understand,” Celeste paused, “Will my friend also be questioned by the police?”
“Definitely Sydney has a lot of influence, the police will take her case seriously
“I see. Talk to you later, Eaton”
Celeste hung up and called Mason
Mason was reviewing documents in his office.
Seeing Celeste’s call, he set down the documents and answered
“Mr. Fletcher, Sydney suffered from anaphylactic shock due to an allergy to coconut juice.”
Mason was taken aback. “Ms Denton is allergic to coconut juice”
He seemed unaware
Celeste explained, “That’s what my manager told me. They suspect someone deliberately added coconut juice to her coffee and
have reported it to the police. The police might question you.”
Celeste apologetically said, “It’s my fault. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been involved.”
Mason chuckled. “It’s not your fault. She was just unlucky. I brought so many coffees, and she just had to pick the one with
coconut juice
Even though he said this, Celeste knew Sydney’s fans were crazy. She warned Mason, “Be careful”
Mason replied, “You too if you need any help, just let me know. Take care of yourself.”
Celeste acknowledged and hung up.
Mason leaned back in his chair
On his computer screen was an interview from when Sydney first debuted
The interviewer asked, “What flavour of coffee do you prefer?”
Sydney replied, ‘Unsweetened iced Americano.”
The interviewer asked, ‘Is there any food you dislike or hate?”
Sydney said, “Conander and fresh coconut juice. I’m allergic to fresh coconut juice, so much so that I need to be hospitalized.”
In the hospital.
Sydney was still in danger.
As the top dog actress in the company, the bigwigs should visit her.
So Steven rushed to the scene, and Clair was with him.
Steven only got the lowdown from outside and didn’t even set foot in the ward. Then he told Sydney’s new agent Sarah, “Use the
studio’s official account to release a statement, saying she mucked up and ate something wrong, and there is nothing to do with
anyone else”
Sarah frowned
Steven’s attitude towards Sydney was a bit of a shocker. He was pushing for such a statement with her condition still up in the
air.
Clair said. “Sir, Ms Denton is still hanging by a thread, we can’t just spit out a statement like this.”
Steven, with a furrowed brow, said, “This is all hogwash from the media; she should know what she can and can’t eat
“Even so, we can’t shoot off a statement like this. The cops haven’t even released their investigation results. If we jump the gun
and the truth isn’t as we claim, it’ll be a bad look
Besides, her fans are all fired up right now. If we release a statement like this, they’ll think we’re playing favourites with Ms.
Campbell, and that’s no good for Ms. Campbell either. You know how bonkers her fans can get.”
