Chapter 579
Rosalie looked at Fiona with a half-smile. She didn’t think Fiona felt sad at all. Besides, she was
more than 90 percent sure that Fiona must be the mastermind behind the lounge incident.
It was just that she didn’t know what the police investigation result was.
Calvin got up and walked over. He looked at Rosalie and said, “I came here after receiving a call
from the police. No matter who the real target is, once I find out who drugged that man and locked
the door of the lounge, I will definitely let that person pay the price and give you justice!”
Rosalie raised her eyes and looked at Calvin. Calvin knew that she was suspicious of Fiona. She
wondered if his gestures were telling her that if Fiona was indeed the perpetrator, he would never
shield Fiona.
When Fiona at the side heard Calvin’s words, her body trembled. A trace of jealousy and hatred
shed in her eyes.
Fiona began to question whether Calvin truly cared about Rosalie to that extent, unable to bear
seeing her being mistreated in the slightest. Rosalie didn’t get hurt at all in this incident. Her arm
was just scratched a little.
“Okay. Let’s go into the room. I have something to tell you,” said the police.
Joseph’s family also entered the room together. After all, Joseph was considered the victim in this
case.
Joseph’s parents came today. They were also Fiona’s ex-parents-inw.
Ever since they entered the police station, their gaze remained fixed on Fiona. Seeing their ex-
daughter-inw adorned in gold and silver while their sony in the hospital, they were engulfed by
indescribable emotions.
Everyone in the town said that their ex-daughter-inw had hooked up with the scion of the
entertainment industry and was going to be the youngdy of the Gunner family. Yet, it now
appeared that Calvin was treating/Rosalie more favorably.
They sat down in the room. While talking about their investigation results, the police also yed
some surveince footage to them.
Fiona was stunned when she heard the police say that there were two surveince cameras
installed at the entrance of the lounge. Then, her face suddenly turned pale.
“There were two cameras?” she pondered. She distinctly recalled there being only one.
Furthermore, she had conducted a covert investigation and found out that the camera could solely
capture images of the upper section of the lounge door, primarily focusing on the second-floor
esctor. It only incidentally captured glimpses of the lounge.
Therefore, she especially told the janitor, whom she had bribed, to lock the door to lower the body
and bend over while locking the door so as not to be seen by the camera.
But now, the police said there was another surveince camera.
“What is going on? Could it be that another surveince camera caught the janitor who locked the
door? If the police find the janitor and then trace the evidence back to me, then I will…” Fiona was
lost in thought.

Thinking of this, Fiona broke out in a cold sweat.
Nheless, when the screen in the room disyed the fast-forwarded surveince footage from
that day, it confirmed. what Fiona had known all along. One of the surveince cameras indeed only
captured the upper portion of the lounge door, while the lower part remained out of view.
The other footage, however, captured images of a dead corner adjacent to the lounge door.
Fiona was stunned and looked at the surveince video in a daze. She thought, “How could it be
like this? Why was the camera pointing at a dead corner? No one would go there at all. What was
the point of such a surveince camera?”
The police pointed to the surveince footage aimed at the dead corner and said, “This camera
could have captured the door of the lounge, but I don’t know who moved it. It was moved 4:12 p
Fiona breathed a sigh of relief. At 4:12 p.m., she was still wearing makeup and had a lot of
witnesses.
“Who moved the camera?” Calvin asked.
“We need to investigate this further. Check if anyone at the scene at that time observed someone
tampering with the camera, but I’m concerned that it might be a lengthy investigation. Additionally,
we will try to reach out to individuals who were near the mall’s lounge at that time to see if they
noticed anything.” Then, the police shifted the topic to Joseph’s confession.
ording to Joseph’s confession, he came to Fiona that day, and Fiona asked him to wait in the
lounge.
After about ten minutes, Joseph felt ufortable. Then he had no memory of it.
The test results from the hospital also came out. Joseph had indeed ingested aphrodisiac. However,
it was easy to purchase this drug online, so it was difficult to find out the source of the drug.
Despite the police’s assurance that they would continue their investigation, it was challenging for
them to produce any significant results in the short time frame due to the limited leads at their
disposal.
Hearing this, Fiona felt relieved. As long as the truth couldn’t be uncovered in a short time, she
believed that with time, they would stop paying attention to the case.
Aftering out of the police station, Fiona said to Rosalie, “Rosalie, I believe the police will
uncover the perpetrator. I really don’t know who wanted to harm me. You’ve endured so much for
my sake!”
“Indeed, I also hope we can uncover the real perpetrator soon,” Rosalie replied, her words carrying
an underlying tone. Afterward, she turned and walked away.
Calvin stepped forward and said, “I’ll send you home!”
“That’s all right. I’ll catch the bus,” Rosalie responded. She was aware of Calvin’s affection for her,
but she didn’t share the same feelings. Hence, it was crucial for her to maintain some distance.
Fiona stepped forward and said to Calvin softly, “Calvin, let’s go.”
Little did she expect that Calvin gazed at Rosalie’s departing figure and instructed the driver, “Send
Ms. Haberly home.” After saying that, he hurriedly strode toward the direction where Rosalie had
left.
Fiona gritted her teeth and turned to get in the car.
“Fiona…” Her former inws intercepted her. “Joseph is currently in the hospital. The doctor
mentioned that the drug might harm his body and impact his reproductive functions. As you know,
he hasn’t had any children yet. He needs to recover, but the treatment will be quite expensive.
Could you contribute some funds to ensure Joseph gets the best possible care?”
Fiona let out a cold snort. “I don’t have the money!” Afterward, she promptly entered the car and
instructed the driver to start driving, not waiting for a response from her former inws.
Joseph took those photos and ckmailed her for money. She hated Joseph so much, especially
when Joseph couldn’t even deal with Rosalie. He was a useless man. His ipetence had led to
her pictures being exposed to the film crew, putting her in an embarrassing situation.
She wished Joseph could lose his reproductive function like this to quell her resentment toward him.
There was no way she would spend money to treat him.
Joseph’s parents could only watch as the car drove off.
The bus station was located close to the police station, requiring only a few minutes of walking to
reach. As Rosalie approached the station, the bus she intended to board pulled in. She quickened
her pace and managed to catch the bus just in time. After swiping her monthly ticket card, she
heard a sudden rush of footsteps behind her, followed by someone boarding the bus.
