Chapter 320 The Swift Action Taken
At that moment, Vania stood up and calmed the scene. She instantly instructed, “Call for medical help and then call the police.”
Subsequently, she turned to one of the contestants and said, “Go and get the director.”
“Sure, I will do that right now.” The contestant ran out of the room in a haste to avoid delaying things any further.
At that point, though, Kiki’s behavior seemed to be getting way out of control, and her laughter became louder and louder. She no longer twirled in her original spot, but she started gesturing wildly.
She gestured frantically in the air with both hands while yelling, “Go away! Stay away from me, everyone!” Subsequently, she cackled.
The director rushed into the room and saw the unfolding situation. Instantly, his face turned pale.
“What’s wrong with her?” He walked over to stand in front of Vania and Hanson, “President Luke, Ms. Greyson, what’s going on here?”
One of the contestants standing behind Vania voiced out and told the director the entire situation right from the start.
As soon as the director heard that, his knees buckled and he nearly fell to the ground. He couldn’t believe that such an incident had happened in the area under his watch. Moreover, Vania was the main target. He was aware that he was fully accountable for this matter and that if something had happened to Vania, he would be in hot waters.
Fortunately for him, Vania was unscathed in this incident. He quickly apologized to Vania, “Ms. Greyson, I’m so sorry about this. It’s my fault for the lapse in security, so I really hope you can forgive me for this.”
She brushed him off. “This isn’t your fault. You should investigate this matter and get down to things as soon as possible.”
He nodded. “Yes, you’re right. Ms. Greyson, President Luke, I’ll go along with your instructions.”
Subsequently, the director hesitated before asking, “What should we do about the program?”
Shortly after this, they had to continue with the show as it was a live broadcast. However, with a contestant in such a disorientated state, there was no way she could go back on stage. If she hadn’t gone on stage, the sudden disappearance of a contestant would be quite hard to explain as well.
Vania spoke up calmly and showcased her leadership capabilities. “Director, don’t panic. I’ve figured out the content for the live broadcast later, so you just have to do as I say.”
“Sure, I’ll be sure to follow your instructions.”
At that moment, Hanson lifted his head and looked at the director. There was a dangerous look that flashed across his narrowed eyes. “No one is to reveal a single word about this matter tonight. If the word gets out, I’ll hold you fully accountable for everything.”
The director trembled with fright. This was a tough mission handed over to him, but he could only nod and agree. “I’ll be sure to seal off this news.”
“I need you to do one more thing immediately.”
The director lowered his head. “President Luke, I’m at your beck and call.”
“Shut the main entrance and don’t let a single person out, regardless of their identity.” Hanson’s voice was impactful, and everyone started to panic upon hearing his words.
This was even more evident in Melanie, as everything had gone out of her hands. She could no longer control what would happen next.
Fortunately, even if they launched a thorough investigation into this, she would not be implicated at all. She felt slightly at ease upon realizing this.
The director nodded in response and was about to leave when Vania stopped him. She pointed to the juices on the table and asked, “Did you send someone to bring us all these?”
At that point, there was a dangerous look that flashed in his eyes. “It wasn’t arranged by me.” Someone was trying to set him up.
He was worried that Vania and Hanson doubted him, so he quickly explained, “I’ve been busy discussing the issue with the camera positions with the cameraman. If you doubt me…”
Vania interrupted his words. “I do trust your words, so there’s no need to overreact.”
The director nodded and left immediately after that to make the subsequent arrangements.
As for Kiki, she continued to yell out, but perhaps she was too tired from everything, so she no longer thrashed about as wildly as before. Her voice had also diminished significantly, but there was no sign of her coming back to her senses.
Hanson coldly scanned the entire room and looked at all of the contestants. Finally, his gaze landed on Melanie, and there was a warning look in his eyes.
Melanie’s eyes shrunk slightly, and she thought, He has finally set eyes on me, but there’s a warning expression on his face. Her heart sank upon noticing that.
