Chapter 1824
Chris orchestrated the collision with a person using a food trolley!
“Look out! The trolley is malfunctioning!” The attendant rushed toward Delilah with the trolley, appearing to be out of control.
The onlookers gasped.
Delilah was stunned, her mind going blank. Just then, Lena grabbed her and swiftly pushed her aside.
Fortunately, no one was harmed.
Lena held onto her while the runaway trolley was halted by a security guard who arrived just in time.
After they managed to come to a stop, Lena asked with concern, “Are you alright, Mrs. Newhouse?”
Panting, Delilah managed to force a smile after a long moment. If Lena hadn’t acted swiftly to pull her out of harm’s way, the trolley would have struck her!
Lena assisted her with her shawl and hair. They only parted ways after a brief chat.
Lena smiled when her back was turned. She deftly tucked the hair sample she had acquired into a small plastic bag.

The following day, Chris and Lena met with Daniel.
“This is Delilah’s, and this is Jodie’s.” Lena handed him the samples.
Daniel smiled and gave them a thumbs-up.
Unexpectedly, he produced another sample and said, “This is Maisie’s.”
“Huh?”
“Test them together.” He looked at both of them. “I’m even more convinced that Maisie is the real Jodie!”
Chris and Lena exchanged glances, agreeing with the speculation.
“I’m on it, Uncle Daniel,” Chris affirmed. “Given our suspicions about Jodie, I’m sure she’s on high alert. “Lena mentioned two days ago that Jodie wouldn’t let her get close. Even her female bodyguard has to maintain a distance… I speculate she might have realized something.”
Daniel frowned. “What do you think we should do?”
“I’ll take the samples to the military hospital for testing,” Chris confidently proposed. “If Jodie is genuinely guarding against us, she might try her best to destroy the test report.
“Meanwhile, the military hospital has high security. I have my old comrades working there. She can’t tamper with the samples!”
Daniel smiled and nodded. “Thank you.”
“Let’s go!” Chris scratched his head and shyly smiled. “Actually, I’m doing this as a favor.”

“I’d like to use your theme park for our anniversary. Can we do that?”
Daniel laughed and readily agreed.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Just then, Toph rushed over and quickly finished the drink they had ordered for him.
“What’s up with you?” Chris teased, “You look so worn out. Tell me, where did you go last night without Arya?”
“I…” Toph attempted to resist, but he couldn’t match the special forces. He was swiftly defeated.
“You’re so clueless, Chris! How would a simple man like you know how tormented an artist is?”
“Wow! Are you seeking sympathy?”
Toph yawned. “It’s true. My inspiration only comes in the middle of the night… Apart from working on Maisie’s illustration, I need to deal with the Newhouses’ family portrait…”
“How did it go? Did you find anything?”
“Yes, I did!” Toph’s eyes lit up. He took out his phone and displayed a picture of the painting.
