The Day I Kissed An Older Man

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, I’m willing to ask Lucas to
show you mercy
you just admit what you’ve done!”
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.
