Before Elijah could respond, Ronan continued, “Well, it’s understandable to cancel the wedding after someone died at the wedding venue. It’s really unfortunate. But did you see the news? Many people are speculating that the person who died was your lover, and they jumped off the building because you were getting married. It’s quite unfair to accuse you, isn’t it?”
Ronan made himself comfortable on the couch, even crossing his legs.
“I didn’t say anything to accuse you. It was them.” Ronan shrugged innocently.
“You may not have said anything directly, but you orchestrated it behind the scenes,” Elijah said with lazy contempt as he casually sat back in his office chair. “My wedding got postponed, but what have I lost exactly? Freya is still mine, the things I bought are still mine.” Elijah said nonchalantly.
Thinking about his own losses, Ronan couldn’t help but feel a burning hatred. His facial muscles twitched uncontrollably. Elijah not only poached his talent but also lost many business opportunities for their company due to the departure of those people, which led to terminated partnerships. But that wasn’t the worst part. Two of those people were like his right-hand men. And now, they had betrayed him. They even leaked company secrets. Now, he was facing bankruptcy! Ronan couldn’t laugh anymore. All he felt was resentment.
“Elijah, you started it first!”
Elijah sneered, “You know what you’ve done.”
“If I have nothing left, Elijah, you won’t have it easy either.” With that, Ronan took out his phone and sent Elijah a short video clip of surveillance footage via email.
“Take a good look at it.”
Ronan stood up and said, “I originally just wanted to instigate someone to commit suicide at your wedding, to ruin the atmosphere. Even if the wedding continued, it would be shrouded in darkness. But I didn’t expect, I really didn’t expect, that someone would hand me the evidence. You see, I have to make good use of it, right?”
He was brimming with confidence, causing Elijah to squint his eyes.
Elijah opened the email and clicked on the video. The content played quickly. It showed Freya and Calista having a confrontation, and then Zane appeared. He pulled Calista away and pushed her. Then he pushed her again… The footage clearly captured the moment when Zane pushed Calista! Now, Ronan had this crucial evidence firmly in his hands.
Things were getting tricky. No matter what connection he had, once Ronan released this video, it would be difficult for Elijah to save anyone. After all, the evidence was undeniable! Elijah had a gloomy expression on his face as he called Evan. Evan arrived quickly.
Elijah made Evan watch the video.
“You said you deleted all the surveillance footage that showed Freya?” Elijah’s tone was tinged with anger. He was so angry because if the video was leaked, it would involve Freya.
Someone had died and the news was hot right now. There were numerous speculations about Calista’s death from the outside world. His wedding preparations were now widely known and many people knew that the bride was Freya. Freya appeared at the scene where Calista died, people would surely think that it was a crime of passion caused by a love triangle, as suggested by the online rumors. And the one who caused Calista’s death was Zane. Zane was Freya’s brother. This added layer of connection was even more detrimental to Freya! It undoubtedly put Freya in a precarious position!
Evan confirmed that he had deleted it, but judging by the completeness of the video, it could only mean that it had been saved before he deleted it.
“Ronan must have been closely monitoring the situation and saved it as soon as possible. I was too late.”
Elijah had calmed down by now.
This video absolutely could not be exposed!
“Find a way to infiltrate all his electronic devices and delete everything!”
