Selena put the remote down and eyed Megan confusedly. “Can’t you just ask Jimmy for the recording? If

I’m not mistaken, Ferrell Entertainment was one of the sponsors.”

Megan had mentioned this to Jimmy on the way to the hospital. However, that had greatly pissed him off.

“I went looking for the video and ended up giving the employees a good talking to. Howard had threatened them, and Brandon had interfered as well! How vile!”

Jimmy punched the steering wheel and complained, “Brandon even went running to Edward and told him I was paying for women! He said I was going to drag the Ferrells into conflict with the Larsons for a woman. That got me into huge trouble.”

Either way, Jimmy’s brother, Brandon Ferrell, had meddled. He placed obstacles in Jimmy’s way at every turn. Jimmy had to do things secretly or plan an ambush. If not, Brandon would make his life hell.

After Jimmy sent Megan to the hospital, he implored her to relax. All of this was temporary. After all, Ferrell Entertainment was under his control. Others couldn’t risk overreaching his authority.

“After recording your statement, there have been a few developments in the case, so we wanted to ask you a few questions.”

Megan was very cooperative.

covert as possible. The surveillance cameras only captured his camouflaged figure. We couldn’t get a glimpse of his face.

“He displayed strong counter–surveillance awareness and didn’t leave any traces behind. He even knew to evade the surveillance cameras.

“This man was clearly a professional.”

Cynthia paused before continuing, “We aren’t ruling out the possibility that he might be an assassin. Think about whether you’ve pissed anyone off.”

An assassin?

Thoughts raced through Megan’s head as she observed Cynthia’s grim expression.

This was the first time someone had directly tried to murder her. As the timing was extremely unique, it definitely had something to do with recent events.
