Chapter 548
Anya was not worried at all when she saw Corinne busying herself at the computer. She found the whole thing
laughable.
“The memory card in Bamboo Forest has already been destroyed so there’s no way she could find anything even if
she spent the whole day in front of that computer. And up till now, instead of speaking up for her, Jeremy has only
been quietly sitting by the side. Seems like he’s disappointed in her which is a good thing for me. All my efforts
would have been well worth it as long as he believes Corinne to be the type of evil woman who would hurt an
innocent child,” thought Anya.
She was secretly jumping for joy but on the surface, she let out a helpless sigh before innocently walking up to the
counter and said softly, “Corinne, why don’t you just give up your act and come clean with your crime? As I said,

if
Corinne completely ignored Anya. She did not even raise any of her eyebrows. Instead, she kept her attention
focused on the computer and after hitting the enter key twice, she said, “All done!”
She then raised her hand and waved Lucas over. “Mister Lucas, please take a look at this.”
Lucas frowned and impatiently walked over to the computer. “What is it?”
Corinne cut out two surveillance footage. She stood up and respectfully gestured for Lucas to sit down. “Mister
Lucas, please have a seat first and I’ll show you the footage soon enough.
Lucas’s patience was at its limit by then. He sat down with a frown and looked at the video file. displayed on the
computer screen, waiting to hear just how Corinne was going to get herself
out of this.
Corinne stood beside him and leaned over to use the mouse. She clicked on one of the video files and said, “Mister
Lucas, this video is around an hour long and it’s from the time I, Mister Jason, Mister Jeremy, and Miss Anya enter
and leave the restaurant. It’s compiled from all the security cameras situated around the restaurant.
“I’m playing the video for you at high speed now, and you can see that I had not communication whatsoever with
Oliver from the beginning to the end. We did not meet before he entered the room with the bowl of soup and nor
did I ask him for his contact details before I left the restaurant.”
Frowning, Lucas watched the video being played at high speed. He narrowed his eyes, obviously still a little
suspicious of Corinne.
Corinne noticed this so she added, “Don’t worry, Mister Lucas. The video might be playing at high speed but I can
promise you I didn’t edit it beforehand. You can ask the software engineer

you brought with you to confirm this later.”
Lucas scoffed. “This doesn’t prove anything! You might have met up with the waiter at one of the security camera’s
blindspots!”
Corinne smirked. “I know this is quite a stretch. That’s why I’ve prepared another 10-minute footage for you to
watch.”
She then clicked on the other video file.
“Mister Lucas, this footage is from the security camera positioned at the entrance of the restroom, and as you can
see, after she came out of the restroom, Anya called Oliver over and the ty of them talked for almost five minutes.
Do you want to guess as to what they might be talking about?”
Lucas’s face immediately darkened when he saw the second footage. He then fixed his gaze on Anya, who
witnessed everything that happened from the side.
