Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet?

Chapter 817 The Mystery

Queeny’s eyes were still cool. She looked up at Bella and then at Gina.

After that, she said sternly, “This footage has been tampered with. The one who swapped the

ingredient was not Gina.”

“What?”

Everyone was shocked.

If it was not Gina, who would it be?

At this moment, the people in the room all became nervous. They looked at one other, wondering who

meddled with the soup.

Even Bella looked puzzled.

She was standing nor far away from Queeny, so she had a clear view of the screen Queeny was

watching.

In that video, she didn’t see anyone go near that cabinet. Then how could Queeny conclude that Gina

was not the wrongdoer?

Could she be making things up?

So she complained, “Queeny, I know you meant well. You’re so kind that you want to help her out. But

you should at least tell right from wrong. The footage showed that no one else came near the cabinet

except Gina, who opened it to fetch stuff. How can you say for sure that she didn’t steal anything?”

Queeny raised her head and darted her a cold look.

Perhaps she was overthinking this, but Bella suddenly felt that the look Queeny gave her was a bit

weird.

It was as if Queeny was… looking at an idiot!

Sensing this, Bella’s temper towered immediately.

But Queeny stated her analysis before she could fly off the handle.

“Based on the footage of the last few days, it’s certain that only Gina had opened the cabinet. But this

can’t prove that she swapped the chicken” she said seriously.

Baffled, Bella asked, “Now she is the only person who touched the cabinet, why can’t it prove that she's

the thief?”

Queeny paused. When she looked at Bella again, her eyes registered clear impatience.

Ella couldn’t bear this anymore. She said, “Miss Collins, can you please save your questions until Miss

Horton finishes her words? You interrupted her in the middle of her analysis. How should she answer

you then?”

Bella was stumped for words.

She gnashed her teeth and let out a snort before berating, “She’s talking so slow. Who knows if she

has finished? Geez! Why is she speaking like an old nag? Others may think her menopause has

arrived early.”

As soon as these words were out, not only Ella but Felix looked at her with icy eyes.

However, clearly, no one in the room wanted to waste their time arguing with her.

In a flat voice, Queeny said, “I’m sure Gina didn’t steal anything because this footage has been

tampered with. I asked Ella to pause here because this is the funny part. If you don’t believe me, come

here and watch carefully.”

Everyone was taken aback by what she said. Next, they all leaned in to watch the video.

Felix didn’t move, for with his sharp vision, he already noticed this detail when Queeny replayed this

part before.

Maybe the one who tweaked this footage was not skillful enough, even though the rest of the footage

had been edited smoothly, a tiny flaw was left in this clip.

In the part where Queeny asked Ella to pause, someone’s back was shown, who just stepped one foot

out of view of the camera. But the next second, the whole person vanished.

There was not a trace of that person in the rest of the video.

This was odd.

Logically speaking, a person’s movements couldn’t be that fast. No one could disappear into thin air.

Even though that person was leaving, there should be a process.

This detail proved that part of what happened before had been edited out. But the one who meddled

with the footage didn’t notice this.

In a haste, that person directly sewed the previous clip up with the rest of the video.

Now, everyone was enlightened.

“Oh my god! Who could it be? Who tampered with the surveillance footage?”

“The one who edited the footage must be the thief!”

“But we don’t know anything about video editing, so it can’t be any of us working in the kitchen, right?”

The servants all began to discuss this.

By this time, Bella had also awakened to the fact that this matter probably had nothing to do with Gina.

She was rather annoyed at this moment. She intended to take this opportunity to prove how smart she

was to Felix. Yet, in the end, she actually made a fool of herself.

To not let Queeny steal her thunder in Felix’s presence, she had to stick with her theory.

Thus, Bella hastily said, “Though the footage has been edited, it can’t prove that Gina isn’t the one who

did it. Maybe she only realized there was a camera in the kitchen, so she went back and cut that part.”

Everyone was muted when they heard this.

Yes, that could happen, too.

However, Gina denied it at once.

“That can’t be true. I... I don’t know a thing about editing videos. Plus, all the surveillance footage is

kept by specific staff. Without Mr. Bissel’s permission, no one can get hold of the footage.”

That was true.

Since Felix’s identity was quite special, the security in the castle had been tight.

Therefore, important items such as surveillance footage were kept out of the reach of most staff. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

At this time, Queeny held up her head and shifted her gaze to Felix, who was just watching this at the

side.

The latter arched his brow. He had picked up her hint.

Thus, he immediately summoned the person in charge of the surveillance job.

Soon, a young man arrived. He seemed only in his twenties. His hair was a little messy, and he wore

spectacles. At a glance, one could tell he was a cultured man.

He had learned why Felix wanted to see him this time on his way here.

Hence, as soon as he arrived, he pushed the spectacles up his nose bridge and said, “I installed all the

cameras in the side building. But because the kitchen is a bit far from the master control room, I

established a separate control room here. As I have to monitor the entire side building, I rarely come

over. So, this control room is usually locked.”

Queeny then asked, “And you’re the only guy who has the key?”

The man nodded, then took out a key from his pocket.

“Yes. This is the key. I’m the only person who has the key, and there are no more copies.”

Queeny took the key and examined it. Her eyes revealed an unfathomable look.

To this point, the matter had become kind of bizarre.

Right at this moment, Ella thought of something and remarked, “This is why Gina is not the thief. After

all, the one who did it is also the one who tweaked the footage. Whether Gina can edit videos or not,

without the key, she couldn’t have entered the control room.”

Her words instantly shed light on the mystery.
