Chapter 467 When the recording finished playing, the crowd fell silent.
Conner hadnât expected Marve to bring a recording device, so he frowned slightly.
Maeve met his gaze with her eyebrow arched in defiance.
The thought echoed in her mind, âThink you could mess with me? Notachance.â
Henry and Hailey were equally baffled at the turn of events.
Conner took a deep breath and said, âMs. Scort, a recording alone canât prove anything. Besides, everyone saw you push her down the stairs. Thatâs a solid fact.â Maeve shrugged and replied eamestly, âMr. Jefferson, youâve got me wrong. I didnât plan to use this short recording to prove I wasnât the one who pushed her.
âI just wanted to show that Ms. Ramoz lured me to the second floor using Sergioâs identity and said some nonsensical things to me.â
âEven if Nathalie did say something odd, it doesnât prove you didnât push her!â Henrysnapped.
âNo matter what, Maeve caused my greatâgrandchildâs death. Thatâs a fact!â Haley added.
Both Hailey and Henry countered every statement Maeve made.
Richard chimed in, âMs. Scott, do you have any other evidence? If not, Iâll have to proceed with the charges.â
With so many people watching, he couldnât have afforded to show favoritism.
Marve replied calmly, âOf course I do.â
The crowd exchanged puzzled locks, Maeve continued, âThe incident happened on the second floor, and fortunately, thereâs a surveillance camera there. We just have to retrieve the footage.â
Hailey frowned. âWhat are you talking about? When did we ever have surveillance on the second floor?â
âIt wasnât there before, but it was installed yesterdayâ
Hailey was baffled. How could she not know it surveillance cameras were installed in her own home?
Allie, who had been standing quietly in the corner, stepped forward and handed Marve a phone. âMrs. Brooks, everything is here.â
Hailey was surprised to see Alle. âWilie? You.â
After a few moments, Mare took the phone and brought up the surveillance footage of Clara meeting her.
After handing the phone to Richard, she said, âMr. Carter, this evidence should suffice, right?â
Fochardâs expression shifted drastically after watching the video.
Maeve addressed the crowd. âI doubt everyone can see the video clearly. Let me use the Brooks Estateâs projector to give everyone a better view.â
She signaled Allie, who quickly turned on the projector connected to the TV.
With a few clicks on her phone, achilling scene appeared on the screen.
The surveillance footage clearly showed Clara grabbing Maeveâs hand before falling down the stats herself.
Upon seeing this, Patricia covered her mouth in shock. She couldnât believe a mother could be so ruthless as to sacrifice her own child.
âThis. this is horrifying! She actually used her unborn child to frame her love rival,â someone murmured.
âLalways know that the woman from the Rang family was no good. She climbed her way up by being a mistress. She had used any means necessary just to get close to Mr.
Brooks,â another added 1
