[It's absolutely a gift from Mr. Lampard,] a netizen scoffed, [all this talk about making it on her own in showbiz, but it's all about

who's got her back.]

While her followers were buzzing with curiosity about whether Astrid's watch was the real deal or a fake, she nonchalantly tapped

the screen and said, "Show's over, folks. Bringthe goods."

The comments exploded with question marks.

Karin felt a sudden tremor of fear.

Then, several burly bodyguards, their faces hidden behind masks, emerged from the woods, carrying objects with reverence.

Approaching Astrid, they handed over what they were carrying.

All the evidence was neatly packed in transparent plastic bags, which were piles of paper documents and a small vial, the one

Karin had thrown off the cliff.

Karin shook uncontrollably at the sight of that vial.

She had tossed it over the edge. How in the world had it turned up here?

Astrid looked at Karin, then turned to the camera to show off the evidence. "The moment | realized | was poisoned, | suspected the

culprit would try to cover their tracks. So | discreetly used the call function on my watch to alert my team. The reason | didn't

immediately call out the poisoner but claimed | was bitten by an insect was to buy tfor my team to gather all the evidence."

Then she turned to Karin and said, "Karin, this vial has your fingerprints on it with poison residue inside. Why would your prints be

on it if you didn't bring it here?"

Caught off guard by Astrid's early suspicions, Karin froze.

It took her several seconds to regain her composure. "lI don't know. I've never seen this vial before. | don't know why my

fingerprints would be on it!"

Her explanations seemed feeble against the evidence. "I've never seen these things before."

"Karin, you're not giving up, are you?" With a mocking tone, Astrid reached out to one of the bodyguards, who handed her a laptop.

She opened it up and found a video file, turning the screen to face the camera.

The footage showed Karin in the dead of night at the cliff's edge, tossing the vial down, then washing her hands at a nearby spring

before heading back to the Adventure Minis' resting area.

Karin couldn't comprehend why such a video existed, especially since the angle suggested it was filmed from above.

Looking skyward, she saw drones zooming toward her!

In that moment, Karin's barriers crumbled and she fell to the ground in despair.

Astrid watched her, pale and defeated, and said lightly, "My brother was worried aboutbeing in these woods, so he sent drones

to patrol. This footage was captured by them. Now what do you have to say, Karin? You can't possibly claim | hired a lookalike to

fryou in this video, can you?"

Karin was speechless.

Clyde watched Karin, his expression a complex mix of emotions, but predominantly disappointment.

As the truth dawned on the shocked online audience, comments started flooding in again. [Damn, Astrid is too freaking smart. She

suspected Karin from the start and played for tjust to gather evidence!]

[Look at Karin who obviously didn't expect the vial to be found, let alone that her act of disposing it would be caught on a drone

camera.]
