Chapter 544
“Sure thing.” The software engineer immediately sat back down in front of the computer to get the surveillance
footage Corinne asked for.
Doing that required some time and Corinne was a little tired of standing so she looked around the restaurant for an
empty chair she could pull over and sit. However, while she was doing that, she happened to meet Jeremy’s deep,
dark eyes.
Jeremy followed them to the restaurant because the matter involved his son but he did not insert himself in their
investigation. Instead, he situated himself at a round table not far from where they were and lit up a cigarette

The cigarette smoke obscured Jeremy from Corinne so it was hard for her to tell what he was
thinking. She was starting to wonder whether he cared about Anya and Joey at all.
Suddenly, someone passed her a bottle of mineral water. This pulled her out of her thoughts; she looked down at
the bottle of mineral water and then up at Jason’s alluring and gentle smiling face.
“Thank you,” she said as she accepted the bottle of mineral water. She was indeed thirsty.
Corinne twisted open the cap and took a sip of the water while sneaking a peek at Anya. ‘She still looks calm. I have
to admit her acting skill is top-notch. That Oliver, however, looks like. he’s about to have a nervous breakdown.
Look at his shifty eyes and flicking fingers.’
After a few minutes, the software engineer stood up and reported, “Mister Lucas, Oliver did go into Bamboo Forest
once after Miss Anya and her friends left the restaurant. He came out after a minute or so. I’ve already cut out the
said footage for you to take a look at.”
Lucas walked over and watched the surveillance footage. Oliver indeed did go into Bamboo Forest 20 minutes
before the group arrived at the restaurant for the second time. He then glared at Corinne and asked, “So what if
Oliver went into Bamboo Forest again? That doesn’t prove anything.”
“Mister Lucas, isn’t this proof enough that he was the one who took the memory card out of the security camera?”
asked Corinne.
Lucas did a double-take of Oliver up and down. “Are you the one who took away the memory
card?”
Oliver immediately shook his head so hard that his eyeballs nearly fell from their socket. “No! It wasn’t me! I don’t
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmknow what you’re talking about!”
Corinne slowly twisted the cap of the mineral water bottle open while she languidly said, ” Oliver, you’re already
caught by the security camera to have gone into Bamboo Forest after we left and you’re still trying to worm your
way out of this?”

“I went in to clean the place up!”
“Oh, really? only needed one minute to do that? I must applaud you for your efficiency but why did you lie just now?
Why did you say you didn’t go in after we left when you did? What are you trying to hide?”
