After Kate left, the assistant realised a bit late that this buzz was starting to spread online. When they checked out the video, they were taken aback and tried reaching out to Kate immediately, but no luck!
Meanwhile, Kate was chilling in the car, chatting away with Eric, totally clueless about the online drama.
Over at Summer Estate, Eric was smoothly pulling double duty–keeping the conversation going with Kate while also playing detective, trying to trace who posted that video and where it came from.
Soon enough, Eric’s face turned serious as he stared at the computer screen, a look of steely resolve setting in.
The person who hacked the Warm account and put up that video of Kate facing some harsh times was using the same IP address.
The same guy was behind both events.
Suddenly, Eric could only think of Simon.
There was this old security camera video from when Kate was in college, showing a time she was bullied back then. You could really feel the tension between the people in that vide
The video has been kept hidden until now and has never been leaked publicly. It seemed someone who knew the truth got hold of the surveillance footage and chose to target Kate by spreading it online at a crucial moment.
Ruth was still in custody, with police finding chat records on her phone suggesting malicious. intent towards Kate. She was currently under investigation.
The only suspect left, naturally, was Simon.
Eric was seriously ticked off, itching to give Simon a piece of his mind or send his guys to sort him out. But without Kate backing him up, he held back, not wanting to do something on the spur of the moment.
Cut to the upscale neighbourhood up north.
There was a loud “Bang!” as someone busted the door open, and a bunch of no–nonsense bodyguards in black stormed in. Inside, Simon was lounging, watching the drama around Kate unfold on his screen, all while sporting a self–satisfied smirk.
Right then, his door got
slammed open!
“Hey! Who are you, and what’s the big idea about busting into my place? You’re on my turf now!”

The bodyguards looked back at Simon without emotion and said, “Go ahead, call them. Spreading lies online about our HN Studio and Mr. Lowe has damaged our reputation. We’re going to call them anyway.”
“Grab him!”
Suddenly, Simon found himself being grabbed by several people. He tried to fight back, but was no match for the big bodyguards. He was being carried away in no time, much like a small bird, unable to escape.
Amid Simon’s fervent protests, he received a stern reprimand. He had a cloth shoved into his mouth before being roughly bundled into the trunk.
In addition, the computer Simon used for his misdeeds was confiscated.
Back at Summer Estate,
Kate’s HN Studio was conveniently located nearby. Ten minutes later, she parked her car and returned home. Upon entering, she found Eric seated on the sofa, looking visibly downcast.
“What’s bothering you, Eric?”
Kate approached and sat beside him, sensing his melancholy and growing curious.
Eric gave Kate a deep look, hesitated briefly, and then pushed the computer towards her. “Just fifteen minutes ago, someone posted this video online.”
He revealed the alleged ‘Kate bullying others‘ video with those words.
