Chapter 704 Conning Celia There was someone else with Victor, an Amirate Corporation legal team's lawyer.

Grace walked in front, heading straight into the VIP ward area. She stopped in front of a door and knocked.

Anurse opened the door. She sized Grace up and asked, "Who are you?" "I'm looking for Mr. Iverson. Is he in?" "He..." The caregiver hesitated momentarily before saying, "You can't enter without an appointment." "Who is it?" A female voice came from inside. It was Celia.

The nurse stepped aside, and Celia saw Grace. She sneered. "What a surprise. Isn't it beneath Ms. Lewis' noble status to visit a hospital?" Seeing this, Grace walked straight in. Joshua was nowhere to be found in the ward.

"Did I let you in? What are you looking at?" Celia tried to push her away, but Victor grabbed her wrist. "Miss, it's better to keep your distance." Be. v4

"Who are you? Her bodyguard? How dare you touch me! Let go!" Celia struggled.

Victor wasn't angry. Instead, he chuckled. "In a sense, I am indeed her bodyguard. I always have been since childhood." He tightened his grip, and Celia winced in pain, "Let go! It hurts! It's going to break—"' Grace suppressed her laughter and gave Victor a look.

"I'm not interested in talking to you; I'm here to see Joshua. Where is he?" Rubbing her wrist, Celia said, "Does he need to report his whereabouts to you? You have functioning eyes. Why don't you find out yourself? I thought Ms. Lewis was all-knowing." "T have important matters to discuss with him." Grace narrowed her eyes, not losing her temper.

"If you have the authority to represent Joshua, I can talk to you too." Celia was speechless. She wanted to confess directly but lacked confidence. Moreover, she was nothing to Joshua.

"Let's talk." Celia pulled a chair and sat down, acting like his girlfriend.

""The medical certificate provided by Joshua to the police states that he has a fracture, concussion, and depression. If that's the case, it's only

been a few days since the incident. How can he leave the hospital so soon?" Grace looked at the documents in her hand, questioning.

Celia was adamant and said, "He has caregivers with him. It's okay for him to go out in a wheelchair." "Victor." Grace glanced at Victor.

He nodded and walked straight out of the ward.

Celia was puzzled. She couldn't understand what Grace was up to.

"Don't beat around the bush. What do you want to talk about?" "Noelle intentionally harmed someone. Where were you on the day of the incident?" Celia averted her gaze. "I wasn't at the hotel. I left." "If I remember correctly, you had been performing on my stage shortly before the incident." Grace deliberately emphasized the last four words.

"Yes, I left later. Is that not allowed?" "What were you doing in the parking lot?" "What? Grace, do you think you're a police officer? What right do you have to interrogate me? You don't have the right to do so!" Celia stood up abruptly, her face full of disdain.

Grace pressed, saying, "You were in the parking lot paying Reina." Upon hearing Reina's name, Celia's eyes darkened, and she stepped back, "Who is Reina? I don't understand what you're talking about." Grace caught her reaction. "She works for you. She drugged my employees, and after everything was over, you paid her!" Celia thought Grace was here to talk to Joshua, but she got caught in the crossfire.

"That's nonsense! I've never done such a thing!"
