Chapter 706
Sienna and Jane were two ordinary women. They felt incredibly nervous about investigating a case in the remote mountains.
Jane gulped and suggested, “Sienna, why not ask your boyfriend for help? He’s more experienced than you.”
“We’re not together anymore,” Sienna replied casually.
Jane was surprised. “What? You broke up?”
“Yeah, it’s been a week.”
Jane sympathized with Sienna and tried to comfort her by patting her shoulder. “Don’t be sad, Sienna. If he can’t see how amazing you are, it’s his loss.
“You’re beautiful and charming, and you’ll easily find someone better.”
Sienna remained composed as she replied, “I was the one who ended things.”
Jane was completely puzzled and pushed Sienna in frustration. “Are you serious? If you don’t want him, why not give him to me?”
“He wasn’t interested in you,” Sienna said while regaining her balance. She focused on scanning the area within the iron mesh.
“You leave me speechless. You don’t even appreciate what you have. Where will you find someone as good-”
Jane’s words were cut short by the sudden barking of dogs. Three enormous pit bulls burst out from the bushes.
“Those dogs are vicious! Run!”
Sienna and Jane screamed in panic, their fear palpable. They dashed down the rugged mountain path as if propelled by rockets, desperate to escape.
The pit bulls couldn’t break through the iron mesh, but simply seeing them was terrifying enough for Sienna and Jane.
They stumbled down the mountainside, finally resting by the roadside. They were panting heavily, their faces pale from the ordeal.
After pausing to regain their breath, they noticed scratches on their hands, feet, and bodies caused by the branches.
“Are you all right, Jane?” Sienna asked. Her concern was evident as she examined Jane’s injuries.
Jane nodded. “I’m okay.”
Sienna glanced back at the mountain, muttering, “There has to be something strange going on up there.”
“It’s just a filming spot. They fenced it off and have a few dogs. What’s strange about it?” Jane shrugged.
But Sienna couldn’t shake the feeling that something wasn’t right.
They weren’t a big film company. Picking a remote spot for filming was already secretive. Renting the whole mountain made things even more suspicious.
Even if reporters tried to snoop, they wouldn’t even make it past the electric fence, not to mention the aggressive pit bulls.
Sienna was convinced that the place served a purpose beyond just filming.
Jane nudged Sienna, who seemed lost in thought. “What’s on your mind?”
“Let’s head back,” Sienna said while tugging Jane’s hand as they left.
They hopped onto their electric nearby

Suddenly, a black MPV drove past Sienna, coming to a stop just a short distance ahead.
Sienna hit the brakes, and Jane did the same.
The door of the MPV swung open, and Molly emerged, holding it for the next passenger. Following her was Vivian, who stepped out slowly. Vivian adjusted her sunglasses before elegantly making her way toward Sienna.
Sienna recalled that the last time,
Daniel had taken Vivian and the others to the police station to assist with a case. It wasn’t because they were in trouble.
“Ms. Lawson, do you have a moment? Let’s talk,” Vivian said, removing her sunglasses with a confident air.
Sienna considered it for a moment before nodding. “Sure.”
