The live broadcast was suddenly cut off. With plenty of rescue personnel on site and the mountain road cleared, Yvette, who was covered in blood and unconscious after falling from the mountain, was quickly taken to the county hospital. The villagers murmured in disbelief, "That girl is way too timid. She should've just explained herself instead of running off in a panic."

"In my opinion, she's acting guilty."

"If she really egged on Ella to cause this fuss and delayed the free clinic for the whole village, then she got what she deserved. It's karma!"

The village leader cleared his throat, interrupting their guesses, Everyone worked hard today. Let's go back and rest." At the same time, Kevin organized for the staff and guests to rest.

Back at her place, Shakira got a text and went to a creek a few hundred feet away. Two handsome men, dressed in custom-made luxury coats, stood out against the poor surroundings. "Shakira!"

"Shakira!"

Shakira quietly watched as Sean and Gideon walked quickly toward her. She wasn't all that surprised.

They both examined Shakira closely. Gideon's gaze fell on the scraped back of Shakira's hand. "Shakira, you're injured." He immediately took her hand to inspect it, his eyes filled with worry.

Sean slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot the first aid kit. I'll find someone to get one right away..."

"No need." Shakira pulled back her hand and said calmly, "It'll be fine in a couple of days, and we're heading back to Crescentville this afternoon anyway."

She stared at them intensely. "What made you two rush over here?"

"You were getting scolded like that. How could we just sit still? Also, if we hadn't come here ourselves, would they have uncovered the truth and arrested the culprits so quickly?" Sean said, clenching his fists in anger. "Shakira, you were right. As soon as I spread the news about you not having a medical license, Yvette just jumped at the chance to cause trouble," said Sean.

She's had her eyes on me for a while. I handed her the knife, and she wasn't about to refuse it." Yes, the "secret" that Yvette overheard was exactly what Shakira intentionally leaked to her. Since Yvette dared to mess with her
