Chapter 65
Chapter: 65 Ariana was surprised that the boss of this place would be so humble. She sensed a trace of alarm. in his voice.
Normally, businessmen like this were very diplomatic and liked to handle things themselves. They wouldn’t call the police unless they really had to. And usually, they were biased toward wealthy people like Jett. Something felt off.
Maybe Kenny didn’t recognize Jett in his current state.
She hesitated for a moment before reminding him, “You might not have realized, but that’s Jett Gellar. Do you really want to hand him over to the police?”
Kenny wiped the sweat off his brow and stole a glance at Theodore. “That doesn’t matter. Soon he will be a nobody.” He laughed dryly.
With that, he instructed the bodyguards to carry Jett away.
Ariana watched in astonishment. How powerful was this Kenny? She wondered to herself. More powerful than Jett? “Now that it’s been settled, let's get out of here,” Theodore declared.
His words brought Ariana back to reality. She nodded and retrieved her purse that was still lying beside the sink.
As she looked up, she noticed a security camera by the door. She called out after Kenny, “Can | have a quick look at your security footage?”
Everyone’s eyes looked to Ariana.
“Someone came in and saved me from Jett, but | didn’t see his face. That camera must have recorded him coming in and leaving,” Ariana explained, pointing at the camera. It was angled to face the door of the restroom. Anyone passing through would be caught.
After taking another glance at Theodore, Kenny smiled. “Of course, Ms. Edwards. Please, follow me.”
Kenny led everyone to the surveillance room and pulled up the footage.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
“It was around eight o’clock when it happened,” Ariana said as she stared at the screen.
Kenny fast-forwarded through the footage of the time she suggested. It didn’t show anything except Ariana going in, followed by Jett, and then Ariana leaving and returning with Theodore.. There was no other man.
Ariana was incredulous. She watched the footage multiple times before she finally said, “That's impossible. He had to have left through that door. How could he disappear without a trace?”
Kenny paused before saying, “Maybe you were too scared, so...”
“Do you think | hallucinated?” Ariana cut him off, her face serious. That was no hallucination. The person who saved her had to be real. Jett’s current state was proof of that. She could never have done that all on her own.
“Okay, how about this? I'll get someone to check all our surveillance footage. Just to be sure that we’ve covered everything” Again, Kenny wiped the sweat from his brow. “That will take some time. We have a lot of cameras, after all. But don’t worry, Ms. Edwards. I'll have my men talk to the guests who were here tonight. We'll get to the bottom of this, | can assure you.”
He spoke with such earnest she felt she couldn’t ask anything else from him. She simply sighed and said, “Well, thank you for handling it.”
“My pleasure.” Kenny smiled. He seemed relieved.
