Samuel silently swirled the red wine in his ss, downed it in one go, and let out a satisfied sigh.
He decided then and there he was sticking with Hannah from now on. This was the life, watching her put everyone in their ce.
Gloria also finished her wine and broke into a happy smile, taking a seat next to Hannah.
If Hannah hadn''t briefed her on the situation beforehand, the tense atmosphere with so many people would have scared her to death.
Ever since Gloria had entered, Gary''s eyes had been glued to her.
"Gloria, what are you doing here!" he finally snapped, unable to restrain himself any longer.
Now that she had Hannah backing her up, Gloria was no longer intimidated by Gary''s harsh tone. She raised an eyebrow.
"I''m here for a reason, of course. You''ll find out what it is soon enough, so you don''t need to ask."
Seeing Gary about to lose his temper, Cherry quickly grabbed his arm and
whispered, "It''s toote to get angry now. Let''s just see what Hannah is going to say."
When she let go of his arm, she realized her own palm was slick with sweat.
Damn it, how was Hannah so intimidating?
She was younger than her!
Cherry began to regret her actions. If she hadn''t picked a fight with Hannah in the first ce, they wouldn''t be in this situation.
But what was done was done.
"Since everyone is here, I''ll get straight to the point." Hannah put down her wine ss and slowly looked up at Lionel. "You don''t seem very curious about this, but I am."
Lionel looked at Hannah with a serious expression. "About what?"
"The contents of the USB drive I gave you were intact. So why did Sandra send Gloria to our house to destroy the surveince footage? Was the information on the first USB drive corrupted?"
Hannah was baffled. Even if Sandra had wanted to tamper with the drive, she wouldn''t have had the chance, not with her injuries.
That could only mean Sandra had someone else destroy the drive and then sent someone to destroy the original footage, fearing Hannah would produce another copy.
So, who was the person who destroyed the drive?
Hannah let out a small, knowingugh as she looked meaningfully at Lionel.
He knew about Gloria''s visit.
After all, she was the one who had given him the second USB drive. But with so much going on at the time, he hadn''t had a chance to think it through.
Now, hearing Hannahy it out, Lionel couldn''t help but frown.
"Mr. Rosenberg, can you give me a straight answer? Was it Sandra who damaged the drive, or someone else? Has someone been sabotaging us all along feeding u? false information?" ''
Gloria quietly ate her food, her ears pricked up.
She was curious too. She knew all about Sandra and Lionel''s affair; Sandra had
always treated it as something to brag about, sharing every detail.
Even if she didn''t want to know, she was forced to.
But as for who destroyed the drive, she already had a pretty good idea.
Lionel''s expression grew darker and darker.
A dead silence fell over the room. After a dozen seconds, Lionel asked in a heavy tone. Are you sure sure the contents of the first USB drive you gave me were fine?"
