Chapter 797 No, This Matter Must Have a Truth
"If I need to check fingerprints, I have to go out, and Mr. Harrington has already sent someone to check the surveillance footage."
Daisy carefully observed everyone's expressions, becoming much more cautious than before.
Victoria stared straight at Daisy, watching her act. Suddenly, she became interested and decided to play along. Victoria said indifferently, "Double insurance."
"No need, I trust Mr. Harrington."
Daisy said softly, then looked at Alexander for help.
Unfortunately, Alexander was not paying attention. At that moment, he was holding Victoria's hand, resting his head on his other hand, and staring at Victoria with a silly smile.
Victoria rolled her eyes at Alexander. She tried to pull her hand away from his grasp several times, but he kept holding it. After a few attempts, she got annoyed and stopped trying.
"I also want to check the fingerprints now. If they find even one of my fingerprints on her body, I'll accept the punishment."
Tessa suddenly said.
"Then I'll check too."
Emily added.
Both of them were being falsely accused by Daisy. They had to check to prove whether they had touched her or not.
"Check what? Everyone's on vacation right now."
"Mr. Harrington, the surveillance is broken."
As soon as Daisy finished speaking, Alfred came in from outside to report.
Alexander immediately frowned and then looked at Victoria. "How coincidental!"
"Yeah, how did it break at this time? BarBara, go get my phone. I know someone who can identify fingerprints. We can ask him for help."
Victoria said seriously.
"Better not. If the surveillance is broken, we're all old friends. I'll just pretend it never happened."
Daisy breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the surveillance was broken. But when Victoria mentioned identifying fingerprints, she got nervous and shouted. Realizing everyone was looking at her, she realized she was too impulsive and quickly slowed down her speech, speaking softly.
But the lower her voice became, and the more pitiful she looked, made everyone look at her.
"No, we need to get to the truth."
Tessa immediately said.
"That's right. If we let this go, it will damage our reputation."
Emily added.
"I also know someone who can identify fingerprints. We don't need to trouble Victoria and Alexander. Emily, Tessa, Daisy, and I can go. Benjamin, what about you?"
"Of course, I'll go too."
Benjamin had been listening for a while. This matter had escalated, and he needed to clear Tessa's name.
'Who knows what Daisy might say about this outside?'
'Anyway, Tessa and Emily didn't hurt her, so...'
"There's no need for identification. Mr. Brown, I want to go back."
Daisy suddenly looked at Neil. At this point, he was probably the only one who would help her.
"This concerns the reputation of two ladies, Ms. Bryant. I think you should cooperate."
"You brought me here, but you're not taking responsibility for me?"
Daisy was almost in tears.
"Weren't you the one who wanted to come? I said I was coming to talk to Alexander, and you asked to join, so I brought you."
Daisy didn't expect him to disregard her dignity and tell the truth. She was immediately ashamed and embarrassed.
Victoria sent a message on her phone, then put it on the table and looked coldly at Daisy again.
"Ms. Bryant, what's the deal with the injury on your hand? If you come clean now, it won't be too bad for you."
Victoria said seriously to Daisy.
Daisy, already feeling wronged, turned to Victoria upon hearing her calm yet ruthless words and impulsively questioned, "Who are you to threaten me? Didn't you say you divorced Mr. Harrington?"
Victoria immediately fell silent.
She had indeed said that. She helplessly glanced at Alexander, who was already angry.
Everyone instinctively looked at Alexander, along with Victoria.
Alexander's eyes narrowed.
He didn't like others bringing up this matter.
After all, he was the one who told Victoria they were divorced.
He sighed and then smiled, "I lied to her about our divorce, but what does that have to do with you?"
"Mr. Harrington, I..."
Daisy suddenly didn't know how to explain, as Alexander looked very angry.
"Mr. Harrington, although the restroom surveillance is broken, the dining room's surveillance is working."
Soon, Alfred came over and said.
Alexander glanced at Alfred, then at Victoria, and smiled faintly, "Then let's show everyone."
"Alright, I need to turn off the lights."
Alfred explained.
"Go ahead."
Alexander responded, then leaned back in his chair.
Alfred and Victoria exchanged a silent glance. Alfred turned off the lights, and a projection device was brought in.
During that time, the only sounds in the dining room were the servants working.
Daisy held her breath and observed quietly.
Those people were fiddling with the equipment as if it were a projector.
Daisy suddenly had a bad feeling. She instinctively looked up at the ceiling.
There was no surveillance equipment on the ceiling, so she quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Then she looked towards Alexander and Victoria and then behind those people. There was no surveillance.
Daisy wondered if they were trying to scare her.
She couldn't be afraid.
Alexander, holding Victoria's hand, leaned back in his chair and suddenly leaned towards her ear, "Did you ask Alfred to do this?"
Victoria remained silent, her eyes downcast.
Seeing her calm demeanor, Alexander knew he had guessed right.
He hadn't arranged for Alfred to continue investigating, so it must have been Victoria.
She had just used her phone to send a message to someone. It seemed that person was Alfred.
Soon, the equipment was adjusted, and a large section of the north wall lit up, showing a familiar scene.
It was the current scene of everyone sitting.
"Because the surveillance is right above Ms. Bryant's head, it captured some of her strange behavior."
Alfred explained seriously.
Daisy didn't expect Alfred, as a butler, to be able to operate surveillance. Given his age, he should only be good at bookkeeping, right?
But Alfred was not as useless as she thought. He froze every frame of Daisy pinching herself, rendering it unmistakably clear.
Daisy started trembling, feeling both ashamed and angry. "This isn't real."
She said impulsively.
"If it weren't for the evidence right in front of us, who would believe it?"
Tessa thought Daisy was simply a psychopath.
"A seemingly sweet girl would go to such lengths to gain the sympathy of the man she likes. Daisy, you're something else."
Emily was also shocked, unable to understand why Daisy would frame them at such a gathering. What good would it do her?
Daisy looked at the cold, mocking faces and then at Alexander. "Mr. Harrington, don't you believe me? I couldn't have framed them. I was pinching myself because I was in so much pain."
Alexander chuckled lightly, "Alfred, find someone to take Ms. Bryant for identification."
