Chapter 973
Hearing this, Holden’s expression grew even darker. He glared at the bodyguard and said in an icy tone, “Go change shifts.” The bodyguard quickly nodded and left the room.
After the bodyguard left, Shawn finally spoke up.
“| didn’t expect that little Melon was the one who bullied Adele last night.”
“Do you believe it?” Holden asked with a sneer.
Shawn shook his head firmly.
“No, | don’t. Although | only had a brief interaction with the little boy, | can tell that he is well- mannered. Furthermore, he visibly loves Adele and seems determined to treat her like a sister. Why would he bully her? Besides, if he had hurt Adele, she wouldn't be so attached to him.
Holden seemed to agree with Shawn’s assessment. However, he didn’t say anything and soon fell into contemplation.
As he pondered about the whole situation, he found Sadie’s actions and behavior increasingly suspicious.
Why had Sadie concealed the argument from him? Was she merely afraid he’d discover the cause of Adele’s seizure? After a moment of deep thought, Holden looked up and asked, “Did they find the surveillance footage from the cruise ship?” “The deck’s surveillance footage was deliberately sabotaged,” Shawn explained.
“Our contacts backstage are on the case, striving to resurrect the videos. However, it will take time to ascertain the possibility of recovery.”
Holden’s response was quiet, his expression dark. Suspicion already had cast its net across his thoughts.
The symmetry of events struck an odd chord.
“Furthermore, as per your request, | looked into the woman clad in the Medusa costume,” Shawn continued.
“Scrutiny of the guest List yielded no pertinent information about her. It’s plausible she came to the banquet in the company of friends. We'll further into it from that point.”
Holden nodded.
“| see. You're dismissed.”
Sadie bided her time elsewhere, waiting until Adele succumbed to slumber before glaring at her with a pent-up frustration.
