Chapter 196 Surveince Footage
Nydia said, "We saw it all on thewn behind the terrace just now. It was your pig of a husband who hugged our teacher. Ms. Parker struggled to get away, but he still tried to follow."
Vivian''s voice was sharp as she eximed, "That''s impossible! You guys are this b*tch''s disciples. Of course, you''d support her. Grace, this isn''t over between us!
The guests in the dining hall were all prominent figures in the circle.
If this matter got out, Grace''s reputation would be ruined.
Violeta took a step forward, nced at the surveince camera in the corner of the terrace, and said, "Then let''s check the surveince footage. There''s a camera right here. Let''s see who made the first move."
Grace agreed. "Sure, let''s check!"
Upon hearing this, Den was dumbfounded.
Just a moment ago, he had let alcohol cloud his judgement and couldn''t control himself when he saw Grace. Now, if they checked the surveince footage, wouldn''t his actions from earlier be exposed?
Den''s heart sank as he started to panic.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
He whispered to Vivian, "Vivian, if this thing blows up, it''s going to be bad for everyone. Let''s not make fools of ourselves. Let''s just drop it!" Vivian''s heart skipped a beat when she heard his words.
After being together for so long, Vivian had already sensed Den''s uncertainty. If he wasn''t sure, then he must be in the wrong.
This d*mn jerk wants to cheat on me with Grace behind my back!
In an instant, Vivian felt like she was being cheated.
She gritted her teeth, determined not to let Grace off the hook!
But if they checked the surveince footage, Den''s reputation would be ruined too. They were in this together, and Vivian had to think about herself as well.
If Den lost face, it wouldn''t benefit her either.
After a few moments of silence, Vivian spoke up, "Fine, let''s check the surveince!"
Den remained silent.
Grace smirked. "Let''s go.
"
The group headed straight for the surveince room on the second floor.
Vivian was texting someone as they walked.
When they got to the surveince room and asked to check the footage, they were taken aback when the hotel''s security staff said, "Sorry, the cameras on the terrace aren''t working. We can only see footage from the hallway, but it might not cover the terrace."
What a coincidence!
All the other cameras in the hotel were working fine, but only the ones on the terrace were down?
Hearing that the surveince was broken, Den breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the surveince was down, there was no evidence to contradict their ims, and they could easily frame Grace. "The cameras are down, Grace. You''re one luckydy!
"Even though there''s no evidence of your shameless deeds, we all saw it with our own eyes. Grace, just you wait. Your good deeds today will spread throughout the entire circle tomorrow. Let''s see how you''ll face everyone after that!
Violeta nced at the monitor next to her.
Violeta stepped forward and twisted the knob on the ck-screen monitor. The surveince screen flickered for a moment, and just as it seemed like the image was about to appear, the security personnel nearby immediately scolded What are you doing? Don''t touch it randomly. Can you afford to pay for it if you break it?"
Violeta asked, "Is this monitor broken? Why did it flicker just now?"
The security personnel replied, "The screen''s messed up. That''s why the surveince isn''t working."
Violeta pointed to the nearby functioning monitor. "Why don''t we just connect the surveince camera to this working monitor?"
Nydia and Hazel nodded in agreement with Violeta''s suggestion, giving the security personnel incredulous looks. "Yeah, why not just switch monitors? Are you intentionally trying to avoid letting us see the surveince footage?"
Grace nced at the security personnel.
The security personnel stuttered, taken aback. "Um, well ... "
Vivian watched as the security personnel struggled under the pressure, feeling uneasy.
Fortunately, at that moment, the head of security walked in from outside. "What''s going on here?"
The security personnel hurried forward and said, "Captain, they want to ess the surveince, but this monitor is broken, and we can''t do it."
The captain nced subtly at Vivian,
then turned to Nydia and Hazel without mincing words. "So, you want to ess the surveince,
huh? Never mind that the
is
broken. What kind of people are you anyway? Just because you want to ess the surveince, do you think you can? Did you lose something? Did you call the police?"
"Get out, get out! Didn''t you see the sign outside? It says: ''No Unauthorised Personnel Allowed!""
The group was promptly escorted out.
Vivian smirked, her lips curling with malice as she said to Grace, "Grace, get ready to see your reputation crumble!
"I''ll make sure you''re the front-page headline in every entertainment magazine tomorrow! Shameless."
With that, she turned and left.
Vivian arrogantly left with her entourage.
Hazel and Nydia''s faces were flushed with anger. They wanted to seek justice for Grace, but they didn''t know what they could do. Violeta narrowed her eyes slightly, suddenly realising that this hotel seemed to have an investment from the White family.
If the security wouldn''t let outsiders ess the surveince, then they needed someone higher up toe and handle it personally. Violeta took out her phone, intending to call Zoren toe over.
But before she could dial, the lift door at the end of the corridor opened, and a well-dressed middle-aged man stepped out.
