Chapter 54 Not an Accident

“Well… You have the recording now. Can I leave?”

After an hour of fright, Pera was on the verge of collapse. She looked at the three of them tremblingly, desperately wanting to escape.

Alston held the phone and took a step back without looking at her.

Pera thought Alston agreed to let her go. She was ecstatic, and when she was about to say something, she saw a tall woman coming out from behind.

The woman looked heroic, and her long, narrow eyes were full of coldness and hatred.

Pera recognized this woman was the one who had been standing by Cynthia’s side to protect her. She was Cynthia’s friend!

“What… what do you want to do!” Pera took a few steps back in fright, looking at Helen warily.

After what happened in the morning, she knew how much Helen valued Cynthia. Pera caused Cynthia to be pushed downstairs, and she knew Helen wouldn’t spare her.

“Don’t come any closer! You can’t hit me… I’m sorry! I already gave you the evidence! Why can’t you le t me go!”

Pera’s eyes were red. There were four people here, three of whom were at odds with her. Nobody coul d help her, and with many cold bodies blocking her way, she had nowhere to escape.

“You caused everything, yet you think I can spare you after being locked in the morgue for only an hour ?”

Helen gritted her teeth with hatred. “You incited so many people to besiege Cynthia. Have you ever tho ught about letting her go? Do you know you could ruin her life with a few words you made up? Were yo u satisfied when Cynthia was pushed downstairs?”

“No… I wasn’t. I just wanted to ruin her reputation, but I never thought of hurting her; I didn’t expect anyone to do it!” Pera looked at Helen pleadingly and begged for mercy. S he was frightened to the extreme.

Cynthia’s friends were all insane and dangerous; she shouldn’t have messed with Cynthia from the beg inning!

Helen didn’t listen to her explanation. She stepped forward and grabbed Pera’s collar, and slapped her hard

twice.

Before Pera could react, she was slapped into a daze. Two handprints appeared on her messy face, which

made her face seem like a colorful palette. Under the dim light, she seemed even scarier than the bodi es.

behind her.

“You… you actually hit me?” Pera screamed.

Helen threw her to the ground and sneered. “I wanted to slap you this morning and tear up your rumor– spreading mouth!”

Then, she turned around and left like a trace of wind.

Dylan stared at her from behind for a long time until she disappeared. Then turned around and looked down

at Pera lying on the ground. “You should be thankful that the two of us don’t hit women. Otherwise, you won’t

be able to leave here.”

The room suddenly quieted down.

Pera curled up in fear but didn’t dare to leave without Alston’s words.

After a long time, Alston held the phone and looked at her. “I don’t want to see you in Fort again!”

His words were like a pardon, and Pera immediately agreed. Fort had already become her nightmare, and she

couldn’t wait to escape from this city as soon as possible. Alston’s words were exactly what she had wi shed

for.

Then, Alston left the morgue with Dylan.

Pera was about to relax when a cold wind seeped in from nowhere. She shuddered and suddenly reme mbered

that she was in a morgue, so she screamed and rushed out as fast as possible.

Alston and Dylan came out from the morgue, and Dylan was just about to go to Cynthia’s ward to chec k her

up. But when he turned around, he found that Alston was heading in the opposite direction.

Dylan froze for a moment and hurried to catch up. “Where are you going?”

“The control room!” Alston answered coldly.

Dylan frowned. “So you don’t believe it was an accident.”

Alston stopped suddenly with a stern look on his face. “The surrounding people were basically patients and th eir family members. They were not so–called victims and had no interests. So no matter how excited the

crowd was, they wouldn’t push her downstairs.”

Dylan pondered after hearing Alston’s words.

Alston continued, “I heard about what had happened. They forced Cynthia to the stairs and did nothing else, but somebody rushed out and pushed her. I know Ivan is a cruel man. He asked Pera to slander Cynthia and probably asked someone to take advantage of the chaos to hurt Cynthia as well.”

They arrived at the control room, where Alston’s men were already waiting.

There was a camera opposite Cynthia’s office and another above the stairs. Every detail of the acciden t was

recorded clearly.

Alston watched the surveillance video and saw Cynthia was wrongly besieged repeatedly. His face dar kened,

and he clenched his fists tightly.

He was already furious when he heard about it, and now he wished he could kill all of them after seeing it

himself.

Soon the video showed the scene when Cynthia was pushed downstairs. Alston paused the video, and everyone looked over.

The one who pushed Cynthia was a middle– aged man with big glasses. He was so ordinary that he couldn’t be recognized in a crowd.

He was looking down, so Alston couldn’t see his face clearly.

Alston frowned and rewound the video. The more he watched, the deeper he frowned.

Dylan’s face also darkened. “The surveillance cameras didn’t capture his face. Not even a single frame did. This man avoided the camera deliberately.”

What Alston said was indeed correct. Cynthia’s accident was not accidental!

After searching through all the surveillance videos, they finally found a few pictures of the man’s face.

However, his face was white and blurred as if it was overexposed.

“How could this happen!” The people in the control room murmured in low voices.

Alston’s voice was low and gloomy. “This man came prepared. The glasses he wore had an

infrared– photosensitive coating. They seemed like ordinary glasses, but the coating could interfere with the photo

Everyone finally understood.

In that case, it would be much more difficult to find him. All the videos were useless. Alston asked someo

surveillance blind spot and disappeared.

There was no information about this person whatsoever. He seemed like a man who suddenly appeared and

suddenly vanished.

Alston slammed on the table hard and caused a dent in it.

Greg looked nervously at his bleeding fingers. “Mr. Smith, you are injured. I’ll have someone prepare to

bandage you.”

“No need!” Alston wiped his blood with a paper towel with a cold and scary smile.

“I can’t believe Ivan actually thought of this method. It seems he has improved a lot since the last banqu invented some new tricks to mess with me.”

Greg was nervous. Ivan had always been a wreck, but Greg felt that Ivan had changed a lot recently, and he also feared that Ivan would cause more trouble for Alston.

“Mr. Smith, what should we do next?” Greg asked, “We only have evidence that Ivan asked Pera to slan that it was Ivan who sent that unknown man. If we go to Ivan, he would only apologize and make compe

spreading rumors and nothing else.”

“Don’t worry!”

Alston’s voice was firm.

Greg looked up at Alston and didn’t see any worries on his face. He wondered whether Alston had alrea

come up with a plan.

Alston stood straight and sneered coldly. “Last time, he suffered greatly from the surveillance cameras, s tech is indeed powerful, but we still have

traditional methods!”

Greg and Dylan stared at him. “You mean…”

“Send someone to ask the doctors, nurses, and patients in the obstetrics and gynecology department to an order, then turned around and left the control room. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Since there were many people to ask, Greg didn’t return until the next morning when Cynthia woke up. He rushed into the ward with a sketch and said excitedly, “Mr. Smith, there’s new
