Chapter 548
Patricia watched as Ellinor frantically hustled and bustled in front of the computer, not worried in
the slightest but rather finding her utterly ridiculous.
The memory card from the box's surveillance was already destroyed, what could she possibly find
from all her bustling?
Moreover, till now. Theo had just been sitting there, watching, not intervening or speaking a word
for Ellinor, it seemed like he had completely given up on her.
This was great. As long as Theo believed Ellinor was a bad woman whod harm a child, her goal
would be achieved
Her heart filled with joy, but on the surface. Patricia feigned a sigh of helplessness With an innocent
face, she walked up to the counter and gently said, âEllinor, it's useless to insist that you're night.
How long are you planning to deny it? If you admit your mistake now, I'll convince my brother to let
you off
Ellinor didn't pay any mind to Patricia, she didn't even furrow her brows and just kept her focus on
the computer screen, then lightly tapped the enter key twice
âDone!â
Ellinor captured two segments of surveillance video and lifted her hand to signal Balfour, âMr.
Howard, please come over and see for yourself!â
Balfour furrowed his brows, then impatiently walked over, âWhat am I looking at?â
Ellinor stood up, politely offering her seat to her boss Balfour, âMr. Howard, you sit first, take your
time.â
Balfour was out of patience, he sat down with a stern face, looking at the two video files on the
computer screen, waiting to hear how Ellinor would defend herself.
Ellinor stood next to the chair, moved the mouse, and opened one of the video files.
âMr. Howard, this is nearly an hour-long surveillance footage, from when Mr. Rex, Mr. Blanchet, Ms.
Howard and I entered this restaurant to when we left. covers all angles of surveillance within the
restaurant.
I'll play it for you at high speed now. You can see that I had no interaction with this waiter from
beginning to end. We hadn't even met before he entered the box to, add soup, and I did not, as he
claimed, seek him out for contact info when I left.â
Balfour, with furrowed brows, watched the fast-forwarded footage and narrowed his eyes, still filled
with doubt.
Ellinor then said. âDonât worry, Mr. Howard, although the video is sped up, I did not edit the
surveillance footage, you can have your computer engineer venfy it later.â
Balfour snorted, âThere's no surveillance that doesn't have blind spots! Ellinor, you think this clears
you of suspicion?â
Ellinor gave a slight smile, âI understand it's a bit of a stretch. That's why I'd like you to watch
another surveillance video that was less than ten minutes long!â
After she finished speaking, she moved the mouse again and opened another video file to play
âMr. Howard, this is footage from the surveillance camera at the restroom door.
In this footage, we can see that after your sister Patricia came out of the restroom, she called over
the waiter Gavin in the hallway, and they chatted for about five to
six minutes.
Mr. Howard, would you like to know what they talked about?â
Balfour's expression instantly turned serious when he saw the second surveillance video. He couldn't
help but look up at Patricia, who was standing by the counter.
