Chapter 128 The Time She Left

Lindsay looked at Ainsley smugly to see how she would answer.

Ainsley pointed to Zane. “Mr. Zane is a recently returned doctor of psychology who has many accomplishments and has created many well-known papers and theories. I am a psychological counselor and am certainly interested in Mr. Zane.”

The man being named looked at Ainsley with a faint smile, stood up very gentlemanly and extended his hand. “Ms. Easton, hello.”

Ainsley also extended her hand. “Mr. Strato, sorry to bother you.”

Kaliyah shook Cason’s arm. “Let’s put this matter aside for now. Besides, Ms. Easton was invited by me. All I care about is the torn wedding photos and the marriage certificate.”

She put the first photo on the table and then brought out a second one. This one was even worse because Kaliyah’s eyes were blacked out and her mouth was marked with a cross in lipstick.

Becky was indignant. “Ainsley, you’re going too far!”

Cason frowned tightly. “Ainsley, I never realize that you are such a person.”

“It’s easy to tell if the person going up to the second floor is me. Is there not even a single surveillance in Morning Star Hotel?” Ainsley looked at the waiter.

The waiter’s eyes dodged as he said, “I’m sorry. The surveillance on the second floor of the hotel is broken. Yesterday, someone from the surveillance room already went to report it, but it hasn’t been

fixed yet.”

Ainsley sneered, “The surveillance is broken at the right time.”

“But what evidence do you have that I went up to the second floor without surveillance? I just left the seat to go to the bathroom. You say I tore up your marriage certificate, please show me the evidence.” Ainsley looked at Kaliyah with indifference.

Kaliyah squeezed the hem of her skirt. Before she could say anything, bean-sized tears were falling and the tip of her nose was red. She looked pitiful.

She said while crying, “Ms. Easton, it’s my fault. You should hate me. After all, you are Cason’s ex-wife. I even invited you to the wedding without taking into account your feelings, so you should

be angry. I apologize. I shouldn’t have come over to question you. After all, Cason has married me. As long as you can vent your anger and stop resenting me, I don’t care.”

Ainsley laughed. What a drama queen! It was a waste of talent for her not to be an actress.

“I remember you just said that the wedding photos and marriage certificate are in the lounge. Then should have been in the lounge when you went to change your cloth. So you saw me tear it?”

She fixed Kaliyah’s gaze.

Kaliyah leaned in Cason’s direction, thought for a moment and said, “There was a time when I went to the restroom to change into my toasting outfit, and I wasn’t in the lounge. That’s right! My cosmetician knew! She accompanied me there.”

The cosmetician was suddenly named. The crowd looked over. She nodded in a hurry.

Ainsley shifted her gaze to the cosmetician. “You’re a cosmetician. You must have been very concerned about timing when you redid Kaliyah’s makeup. So what time is it when you go to the restroom? Don’t get me wrong. I’m just wondering if you could have left the lounge before I even left my seat. Someone might do it at that time.”

Kaliyah blurted out, “Six o’clock sharp! It was fifteen minutes past when I got back. I heard the waiter say Ms. Easton left the seat around that time, too.”

“Hmm.” Ainsley nodded. “Ms. Packer, please give me the exact time again.”

“Six o’clock sharp!” Kaliyah said decisively.

“You’re wrong. I went to the bathroom at six ten.” Ainsley said seriously.

Kaliyah looked at her incredulously. “How is that possible? The waiter told me that you left the seat at exactly six o’clock.”

Kaitlin said anxiously, “Kaliyah, maybe the waiter misremembered? Anyway, she sneaked to your lounge when you went to the bathroom.”

Kaliyah looked at Kaitlin with a stern look. What a ****woman! However, the words had already been said. She said, “Ms. Easton, I have no way to tell the exact time, after all, no one would go restroom and keep track of the time, right?”

Ainsley nodded. “Yes, but you’re getting married today. Doesn’t your cosmetician remember it

well?”

“I mean, the waiter may not have remembered the time correctly. But you indeed were the only one who left after I got out of the lounge. And the waiter said he saw you go to the lounge. That can’t be a lie, can it? After all, of all the people present, I really can’t think of anyone else who would hate me so much.” She lowered her eyes, her lashes wiggling slightly as she blinked.

“Ms. Packer, you have no evidence to prove that I went to the second-floor lounge. Instead, I have proof that I left the seating and didn’t go to the second floor, but went to answer the phone.”

Ainsley expressionlessly took her phone out and showed the call log to Kaliyah. “Look carefully, at 6:02 it was Manuel who called, and I answered and talked for three minutes. At 6:05, I called Mollie and talked for five minutes. So I didn’t go to the bathroom until 6:10. I answered the phone by the front door, which should have been under surveillance.”

She looked to the waiter. “You don’t mean to say that the surveillance at the front door is also broken, right? If so, I will have to file a complaint.”

The waiter was in a cold sweat of fear. “Ms. Easton, the surveillance…”

Kaliyah clenched her fist and tensed her body. Her planning had been ruined by two phone calls. But she couldn’t back down.

In front of so many people, she had to put this guilt on Ainsley.

“Ms. Easton, that does not prove that you deliberately called, or went straight to the lounge after the call. After all, it doesn’t take too long to get to the second floor.”

Ainsley was impatient and just about to speak when she saw a tall and slender figure enter through the door, wearing a fine high-fashion suit. The sound of black shiny leather shoes on the marble

floor came in.

She muted and softly looked at Manuel who walked in.

“My Aisy was indeed on the phone with me just now. Ms. Packer is asking me to repeat the call?”

Everyone looked over and was shocked at Manuel.

“How did he come here? Mr. Gage actually came?”

“He’s here to save Ainsley, I think. He just said his Aisy. Could it be that these two have?”

“Nonsense. Mr. Gage is so good. It’s impossible for him to like Ainsley.”

The Baldries and the Packers were shocked as Manuel stepped in front of Ainsley blocking most of

their view.

Kaliyah’s face went pale. “It’s not a big deal. Ms. Easton, why did you even invite Mr. Gage to back you up?”

“Nothing to do with Aisy. I just saw the anonymous text message from Kaitlin. Thanks to her.”
