Chapter 296
Elizabeth headed straight to Base M, determined to find out who leaked information about Esme ASAP. She couldnโt stand any injustice, even a tiny bit.
Felix was deep into the hospitalโs surveillance footage, checking every corner but finding no one entering Nickโs office.
โCheck the window surveillance,โ Elizabeth said coldly.
Felix turned and saw her standing behind him. โMr. Percy, when did you get here?โ
โJust now,โ she replied, clearly angry.
Felix was so focused he hadnโt noticed her arrival. He quickly switched the footage, glancing cautiously at Elizabeth.
โThe hospital windows?โ Felix said, incredulous. โMr. Percy, thatโs over thirty floors up. Entering through the window just to report Esme? Thatโs nuts!โ
โThereโs a balcony outside Nickโs office window. Itโs possible,โ Elizabeth clarified.
Felix pulled up the footage from Nickโs office. One angle faced the balcony directly.
Elizabethโs phone rang; it was Alexander.
Alexander: [No matter what, I hope you find a chance to apologize to Esme and calm her down.]
Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
Elizabeth: [Apologize? No way.]
She sent the message and blocked Alexander again. Sheโd unblocked him for divorce updates, but he was better off blocked. He was messing with her mood.
Last time, she couldnโt find out who leaked the divorce news. This time, if she found out who wrote the anonymous letter, sheโd make Alexander apologize to her!
โLook, thereโs a shadow,โ Felix pointed at the window.
Elizabeth noted the time: 1 AM. The timing matched; Nick had seen the report letter early that morning.
The shadow was cautious, sticking to the wall, never showing a full face, then entering a blind spot.
โCanโt see anymore,โ Felix said.
Elizabeth bit her lip, stroking her chin. This figure looked familiar.
โTo be so familiar with Mr. Yorkโs office, it must be someone from the hospital, right?โ Felix asked.
Elizabeth looked up.
Felix zoomed in and adjusted the brightness.
โCan you check the surveillance outside the balcony?โ Elizabeth asked.
โNo problem,โ Felix said, snapping his fingers. Base M could do anything.
โMr. Percy, has Alexander pissed you off again? Oliverโs working on a new computer virus; we can keep infecting his systems with it!โ Felix joked while checking the footage.
Elizabeth got angrier. She smacked Felix on the head. โI havenโt even settled the score with you for selling me out last time. Do you know how much money I lost?โ
โNo way. He actually asked you for money?โ Felix looked surprised.
Elizabeth pouted. โYes, he did. I really transferred money to Alexander the next day. He accepted it right away.โ
Elizabeth crossed her arms, convinced sheโd fallen for a jerk. Alexander had no character, no responsibility, no intelligenceโjust a good-looking face!
โFound it,โ Felix said, pulling up the outside footage.
Elizabeth immediately saw the personโs face clearly.
โZoom in!โ she said, her voice trembling.
Next to Nickโs office was a break room. The break room window opened directly to Nickโs office balcony. This person was bold enough to actually jump over!
