The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 541
A frown appeared on Lucasâs face; he was not happy at all.
âHow could this be? Lucas, donât you find it weird that the only memory card thatâs missing is the one in
Bamboo Forest?â asked Anya with exaggerated surprise.
Lucas thought so too. The surveillance system was fixed but there was no memory card in just one of
the security cameras. It would be hard-pressed for anyone to see this as a coincidence.
Suddenly, he turned around and looked suspiciously at Corinne.
Anya finally saw what she was hoping to see in Lucasâ eyes. She, too, followed Lucasâ gaze to look at
Corinne. Then she pretended a thought just come to her and said, âCorinne, I remember you were the
last one to leave the room after Jeremy and I rushed Joey to the hospital Did you perhaps stay to steal
the memory card so thereâll be no evidence of what you did?â
Lucas became even more suspicious of Corinne after hearing what Anya said. âCorinne, how do you
explain this?â
âI didnât steal any memory card,â Corinne said, though it would be hard to convince anyone. since she
did not have any proof.
Anya shook her head and said in disbelief, âI get it now! Corinne, you mustâve stolen the memory card
before we even got into the room. Thatâs why you so confidently asked us to come here to check the
surveillance footage to prove your innocence! All this is a ruse to trick us into believing that youâre not
guilty. Am I right?â
As soon as she entered the restaurant, Corinne did nothing but wait quietly by the side to see how
things would develop. From the moment Anya suddenly had a change in the attitude of wanting to
come to the restaurant to check the surveillance camera, Corinne knew the truth. would not come out
that easily. Thus, she was not surprised that Lucas and Anya would be pointing their fingers at her
once they discovered someone stole the memory card from Bamboo Forest.
However, the fact that the memory card was stolen meant that the security camera indeed. recorded
what happened in Bamboo Forest at the time they were in it. Meaning to say, Anyaâs lies would be
exposed and that was why it had to be taken away.
âAnya has something to do with the missing memory card. I donât doubt that sheâs afraid to let anyone
see what happened. But how did she do it when she was with us this whole time? There are only two
possibilities. One, she sent someone to steal the memory card and two, she has bribed someone in
this restaurant to clean up her mess!â thought Corinne.
Seeing Corinne saying nothing, Anya came to interrogate her, âCorinne, why arenât you saying
anything? Are you finally willing to admit your wrongdoing? I would have forgiven you if you just
admitted what you did at the beginning but you insisted on dragging everyone here and look what
happened? Iâm afraid even if Iâm willing to forgive you now, my brother will not be as merciful as me.â
Corinne continued to ignore Anya. She knew without a doubt that Anya was the culprit behind. all of
this. Instead, she turned around and asked the lady owner, âExcuse me, but can you tell me if any
customers used that room after us?â
The lady owner shook her head. âNo. It was past lunchtime by the time you all left so no customers
came in after that.â
âIf no customers came in after us then it must be one of the staff here who took the card.â
âMaâam, do you know where is the waiter that brought the soup for us this afternoon?â Corinne asked
again.
