Mu Lingshi finished chewing her food, and then took a napkin to wipe her mouth before softly answering, “Of course, I’ve checked. Previously, Caitlin’s manager’s teacher worked for my mother, so she must be quite familiar with her. However, I’ve asked Caitlin before, and they know nothing about those incidents.

She smiled bitterly.
