Chapter 422 The Situation Was Complicated

"What the hell is going on?" By the time Chester rushed to the hospital, he saw that Layton's agent had
been sitting in the corridor with blood all over his jacket and pants, looking messed up. It seemed that
he had gotten into a fight with someone.

"I sent Layton home. When we were almost there, suddenly, someone rushed over and attacked us.
You also know Layton's fighting skills. He can deal with ordinary people. But he was stabbed by that
person to protect me. He is now in the emergency room for rescue… "

"What?" Chester realized that things didn't seem so simple, "Did you see what the counterpart looked
like?"

"No, it's too dark. It's… just that he left behind his cell phone when he escaped. There's only one
number in it, which is Anna’s." Layton's assistant took out a cell phone from his pocket, which was
stained with blood.

It turned out that...

Chester took the phone over and figured everything out. It turned out that Layton has used his body as
a bet to stage a bitter trick to frame Anna.

"I know. I'll look into it. The situation is unstable at the moment. You'll also go for a physical examination
later. Moreover, if any reporter finds here, you shouldn't reveal any information for now. After all, Layton
is also caught in it."

Layton's assistant nodded in a daze as if he hadn't yet recovered from this accident.

"Director Chester, I won't say anything. But Layton got hurt because of this matter. As his assistant, I
can't possibly say nothing and watch him being bullied by others. Could it be that the showbiz is so
messed up that the Jiang family has the final say on everything?"



Chester's eyes grew dark as he listened to the little assistant's accusations.

Patting him on the shoulder, Chester said, "Don't worry. I'll investigate the matter thoroughly and give
justice to the victim."

"I hope you can investigate it quickly! Although our company isn't as powerful as Dahlia entertainment,
we will never stand by and watch our artists get bullied."

Chester reassured this assistant a few more times and then asked the vice director of his crew to stay
here with a few crew members, which partly to observe Layton's physical state. Moreover, in case any
reporters came here and looked for Layton, with the crew members being here, Layton wouldn't say
excessive words.

After that, Chester immediately told these things to Jack and Old Master Jiang so that Dahlia
entertainment could be prepared.

"I can't believe he dared to use his body as a bet." Old Master Jiang snorted and was very disdainful,
"What an irredeemably bad man."

"He wanted to wrong Anna and made up a drama by himself. However, with just a phone number, it
seems that he can’t fulfill his purpose. He probably has something else at his hand."

"Anna showed the way to someone on the set yesterday, who claimed to be from Layton's agency and
wanted to send him something. Anna thought this was a bit strange and had Rosa tell me about it. I've
sent Bill to investigate it. If this matter is related to that person, he probably is the breakthrough."

Jack’s tone was very cold. And his eyes were a bit chilly.

"Anna has always been vigilant and careful. Maybe her hunch is correct. The key question now is
whether we can find this man."



Chester blamed himself and said, "Layton is indeed a very powerful actor. But he is too profit-motivated
and has used such lowly means to seek benefits time and time again. Now it seems that if Anna
weren't vigilant and careful at every step, she probably would have fallen into their trap long ago. And
I'm also responsible for this matter. I wasn't able to see through Layton's nature from the start."

"I hope this matter won't affect Anna… "

"She didn't take it to heart. She, who is always going through this kind of thing, is used to it." Jack only
revealed a few smiles when he mentioned Anna.

"I was originally quite worried that Anna would be affected by this incident. And judging from the current
situation, her mentality is so admirable." Chester had been in showbiz for a long time and had seen
many actresses who ended up retiring from depression because they were caught up in scandals. And
it was rare to see one as calm as Anna.

Admittedly, Anna was both hard-working and conscientious. She was not only responsible for her role
but also able to see from the big picture and make the right choice, which probably was why Jack loved
her alone.

"The verdict should be in tomorrow."

Jack believed in Bill's ability, thinking that this matter should be over.

Chester nodded his head. In his heart, he also wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible. If it
dragged on, the entire crew would be involved.

As Old Master Jiang was listening to the conversation between the two of them, he stayed out of it as if
this matter had nothing to do with him. When he had handed over the burden of the Jiang Group to
Jack back then, he had been tired of all the scheming. Now the showbiz was like a puddle of sewage,



where few people could be pure and righteous. Instead, they were all trying to scheme against others
every day and using dirty tricks to plunder resources, who surely couldn’t succeed.

After deliberation, Old Master Jiang thought that his granddaughter-in-law was the best!

She knew where the limit was while getting things done and getting along with others. And she wouldn’t
hide and cry if others bullied her. Instead, she would fight back roughly and protect herself with the
sharpest armor...

In Old Master Jiang’s opinion, Anna Yan had met 99% of his standard, who was 1% less from being
perfect!

The chaos that night quickly dissipated. And although Chester had told Layton's assistant that he
shouldn’t say much to the reporters and the crew members had avoided talking about Layton's injury,
the news that Layton had been injured and admitted to the hospital was spreading.

Needless to say, nobody else could describe the situation so other than the one involved. Layton
wanted everyone to know that Anna was the one who had done this to him.

Layton's agency made public the cell phone with Anna’s number in it which had been found at the
scene. In that case, they were announcing ambiguously that Anna was behind it.

"It’s inconvenient for us to reveal the circumstances of Layton's injury to the public. But this accident
has affected his life safety. And for the sake of our company's artists, we decided to call the police to
find out the truth!"

That afternoon, Layton had his assistant call several reporters to his ward, saying that he volunteered
for an interview!



In the ward, with his head and waist wrapped in thick gauze, Layton looked very weak and painful.
Moreover, his face was very pale...

"I didn't expect that they'd want to kill me!"

"It doesn't matter what happened to me. But my assistant is still with me and he doesn't know any
martial arts. I… Cough! Cough… "

"I hope the police can catch the murderer as soon as possible. After all, the showbiz shouldn't be
messed up like this."

The reporters nodded their heads, feeling that Layton’s words were very righteous.

The head of Layton’s agency looked at the time, "Alright. As you have seen, based on Layton’s current
physical condition, it is not suitable for him to interview for a long duration. After he continues to recover
for a while, he will disclose all the details of his encounter with the attack. I hope you all will be
considerate. Let's stop the interview here today."
