Chapter 543
Ellinor slowly snapped back to reality. She glanced at the furious Balfour and then at the seemingly sweet but deviously cunning Patricia.
She snorted, “Mr. Howard, how can this waiter named Gavin be considered a witness?”
Balfour stared at her coldly, “And why can’t he be? Patricia and he are not close, yet their testimonies match perfectly. I think that’s proof enough”
Not close?
It seemed like Balfour really had no clue about his scheming sister Well, she will just help him see the light today!
“Mr. Howard, can I have ten minutes? I’ll prove that this waiter, Gavin, can’t be a witness and that his testimony is invalid!”
Ellinor didn’t rush to refute Balfour’s words; she simply requested for ten minutes.
Balfour didn’t object and calmly watched her struggle
Patnoia felt like victory was in her grasp and wasn’t panicked at all. She and the waiter, Gavin, had planned everything perfectly, even the memory card from the surveillance camera had been removed and destroyed. There was no way things could turn around now, Ellinor’s struggles were futile!
Ellinor calmly asked the waiter, “You said I snatched the soup pot from your hand and splashed the kid. So tell me, which hand did I use to grab the soup pot from you?”
The waiter’s eyes flickered, he subconsciously looked at Patricia, but she didn’t look back at him or exchange any glances.
“The situation…the situation happened so suddenly, I…I can’t remember those details!”
Ellinor wasn’t in a hurry, “Well, it’s okay if you can’t remember, I’ll ask you some other questions, so please answer truthfully.
Gavin frowned, ‘Go ahead, I’m telling the truth anyway!”
Ellinor stared into Gavin’s shifting eyes and asked, “After all of us left the restaurant, did you enter that private room again?”
The waiter immediately shook his head, “No!”
Ellinor squinted, “Are you sure you didn’t?”
Waiter Gavin answered resolutely, “I’m sure I didn’t!”
Ellinor nodded, “Alright, remember what you just said!”
Then, Ellinor turned to the computer engineer Balfour had brought, politely asking. “You just said that only the surveillance from that private room can’t be accessed, right? Can the rest be accessed?”
The engineer confirmed, “Yes, that’s correct.”
Ellinor gave a slight smile, “Could you please pull up the surveillance footage from the hallway outside the private room. Let’s see if our waiter Gavin here entered
the room after we left!”
Upon hearing this, Gavin’s face turned pale, and his guilty and nervous eyes darted toward Patricia.
Oh boy, Patricia hadn’t expected Ellinor to check the surveillance from this angle.
“Alright then”
