Chapter 158 Joshua sat there. “Isn’t it true?” he asked. “If you and Cyn are already divorced, I’d definitely say yes, just to get under your skin. But she’s still your wife, and I can’t tarnish her reputation,” Mitchell half-jokingly replied, a smile playing at the corner of his lips, and his eyes carried an air of sophistication. “You’ll know the whole story once you watch this video.” Mitchell took out his phone and opened the previously copied video as he spoke, handing it over to Joshua. Joshua took it, and while he watched, Mitchell continued speaking, “I’ve edited the video, leaving only the key parts. If you want the full version, I can send it to you, but it’s over an hour long- Joshua remained silent, still watching the video.
The video showed several people entering a room. After that, Cynthia also entered that room. The scene shifted, showing a person wearing a mask and a baseball cap, dressed in work clothes, knocking on Mitchell’s door and leaving a key card and a letter on the floor. The person’s face was not clear in the video. Afterward, Mitchell came out to retrieve the letter and then entered the room where Cynthia was. He stayed inside for less than ten minutes, and Cynthia came out with him. Then the video captured the entire process of him escorting Cynthia to the hotel entrance and helping her into the car. “The video has timestamps; you can verify it,” Mitchell said, estimating that Joshua must have finished watching- “And then?” Joshua asked in response. After watching the video, he believed it, but he still did. not like Mitchell’s calculating demeanor, leaving nothing to chance. “I was in the room with Cyn for less than ten minutes. That would not be enough time for at shower, let alone anything else,” Mitchell said, getting to the point.
“Five minutes for a shower, two minutes to get things done. It’s not impossible,” Joshua replied seriously. Mitchell raised his glasses, not getting angry, and simply smiled. “Seems like you have experience in this area.” Joshua remained silent, keeping his thoughts to himself. Then, he handed over the phone, coldly saying, “I’m evaluating you.” “In that case, besides business matters, your evaluations in other aspects seem quite off,” Mitchell replied with a double meaning. Joshua rarely left a statement unanswered. He knew that Mitchell was blaming him for wrongly accusing Cynthia. “What about those people who entered Cynthia’s room beforehand?” Joshua brought up the matter proactively, his gaze slightly deeper. “Have you found the person who delivered the letter?” “We’re still investigating. Yesterday, we were looking for someone to recover the surveillance. footage. As for those people in Cyn’s room, they were just ordinary individuals paid to do a job, thinking Cyn was the bad guy.” Mitchell knew the timing was right and revealed everything that had happened at the hotel to Joshua. It was not to provide an explanation but rather to suggest that there were some things and people that Joshua should investigate on his own. Mitchell had some information that he could find, but certain aspects were difficult to uncover. Ten minutes later, Joshua had listened to everything Mitchell had to say. It was almost identical to what Cynthia had told him, but he knew it was the truth, not a concocted plan between them. It was precisely because of this that he felt uneasy. Yesterday, Joshua had once again wronged her because of this incident, saying all he cared about was whether the marriage certificate had been burned. Cynthia probably… really disliked him. “You know Cyn’s personality? You were her confidant for two years, so you should understand. You can doubt my character, but you shouldn’t doubt hers,” Mitchell defended. her briefly.
