    Chapter 575 The Erased Surveince Footage.


    Symeon drove to the manor’s gate, picked up Amanda, and slowly drove away.


    “We should head directly to the Carter Residence now, I suspect Eleanor has something to do with


    Casey’s disappearance, Amanda suggested, fastening her seatbelt.


    He gripped the steering wheel. “I have the same suspicion. I waited downstairs until midnightst night


    and didn’t see her return. Her phone was off all night and unreachable. It’s clear she’s missing.”


    “My greatest fear is that she’s in danger. If it’s merely confinement, we can handle it. We just need to


    locate her.”


    The thought of Casey potentially being in danger caused Symeon’s grip on the steering wheel to


    tighten, his handsome face turning cold.


    She could sense his concern. She chuckled softly, almost imperceptibly.


    Symeon, however, heard it and nced at her. “What’s so funny?”


    “I was just wondering. Has someone fallen in love?”


    “Not! Don’t overthink it. I just don’t want Dulcie to be upset,” he retorted.


    Amanda merely smiled and remained silent.


    Upon reaching the Carter Residence, Symeon and Amanda stood outside the door and rang the


    doorbell.


    After a considerable wait, Dn finally opened the door. looking perplexed. “Who are you two?”


    “My name is Amanda Bailey. I am Miss Casey’s defense attorney. This gentleman is her friend.”


    “However, Miss Casey is not at home. She hasn’t been residing here recently.”


    Amanda responded with a smile. “I’m aware of this situation. However, I couldn’t reach Casey today.


    So, I thought I’d visit the Carter Family. I wanted to inquire because Casey mentioned yesterday that


    she was nning to visit her father, but then we lost contact.”


    “Ah? This…”


    Dn suddenly looked flustered. Did Casey disappear after leaving the Carter Family yesterday?


    Recalling the argument between Eleanor and Casey yesterday, he wondered if there was a connection.


    After all, Eleanor sent him away at that time.


    Observing the butler’s expression, Amanda sensed a story and probed, “Do you know something?”


    “I don’t know… I don’t know anything. You’re looking for Miss Casey, but she’s not here.”


    “Then, we’ll seek Mrs. Carter. Please inform her, she suggested.


    The butler nodded.


    After the butler left, Symeon finally spoke, “I find this butler suspicious. It seems he knows something.


    Yet, he doesn’t dare to tell us.”


    “It’s alright. We’ll ask him againter.”


    After a while, Dn returned. “Please follow me.”


    Thus, Amanda and Symeon followed the butler into the Carter Residence and sat in the living room.


    Shortly after, a maid served them two cups of tea.


    After a considerable wait, Eleanor finally arrived, looking haughty, sizing up Amanda and Symeon


    sitting. across from her. “So, you are Carter’s defense attorney?”


    “Yes, I am. Hello, Mrs. Carter. My name is Amanda Bailey.”


    “Oh, hello. So, what brings you here?”


    “Nothing much, just a casual visit. Casey mentioned yesterday that she nned to return home, and


    then we lost contact, so we came to investigate.”


    Eleanor maintained herposure. “After she returned yesterday, we had a heated argument and


    parted. on bad terms. I have no idea where she went. Asking me is futile.”


    Symeon had no patience for the woman before him. He coldly said, “Do you dare to im that Casey’s


    disappearance has nothing to do with you? The person in this world who most desires her


    disappearance. is you.”


    “Who are you? How dare you speak like that? What makes you so certain? I bear no ill will toward


    Casey. Why would you say I’m the one who most desires her disappearance? Be careful, or I’ll sue you


    for defamation. Carter Family has privatewyers. They are all prominent figures in the industry. I


    advise you to watch yournguage!”


    She had no idea who she was dealing with and assumed that she could intimidate them.


    Symeon was no longer willing to engage with this woman. He stood up and said, “I advise you not to


    overstep the boundaries. I’m not as useless as Casey. If you know something, speak up. If you don’t,


    keep quiet. I don’t have time for your nonsense!”


    With that, he turned and left the living room, realizing he didn’t get any useful information from her.


    Then, Amanda also stood up and said, “Since you’re unwilling to share anything, I’ll take my leave.”


    Eleanor watched the man and woman depart one after the other, dumbfounded. “Who are these


    people? They dare to yell at me. Why? Who do they think they are?”


    As Amanda and Symeon were leaving, they ran into the butler. He seemed anxious and couldn’t help


    but ask, “Have you guys managed to contact Casey?”


    “If you know anything, it’s best to tell us. Otherwise, the situation could escte. If Casey met


    dangerous. individuals, the consequences would be unthinkable. Every minute we waste increases the


    danger,” Amanda warned gravely, intentionally exaggerating the situation to coax the butler into


    revealing what had transpired the day before.


    Symeon stood by silently, having long suspected that the butler knew something.


    Dn looked at them, wanting to speak but hesitating. After ncing around and seeing no one else,


    he pulled them into a secluded corner.

    “I’ll tell you, but you can’t betray me. Otherwise, Mrs. Carter will fire me. She’s been looking for an


    excuse to do so for a while, but I desperately need this job. My wife’s medical bills are expensive.”


    “Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret. Our goal is to find Casey, not to stir up trouble,” she assured him.


    The butler thought briefly, then recounted what had transpired the previous day.


    After listening, Symeon furrowed his brows. “So, you didn’t see whether or not Casey left?”


    “That’s correct. Mrs. Carter dismissed me.”


    “That’s odd. Was there a surveince camera where both of them argued yesterday? Can we review


    the footage?” Amanda suggested..


    Dn replied, “There is a surveince camera, but I don’t know if the footage is still there. After all, the


    argument between Mrs. Carter and Miss Carter was quite heated yesterday, and I heard that Mrs.


    Carter visited the surveince roomst night.”


    “Then, bring us there.”


    “Alright, it’s this way.” The butler guided them to the surveince room.


    However, after some investigation, they discovered the surveince footage from the entire yesterday


    had been erased. There was something suspicious about this. Otherwise, why would they erase an


    entire day’s worth of footage?


    Amanda and Symeon exchanged a nce, both sensing that something was amiss.


    Yet, it wasn’t appropriate to confront anyone at the Carter Residence now, so they decided to leave for


    now.
