Chapter 58- The CCTV Footage

“ What the hell are you doing here?" I asked again in case he didn't hear me the first time as he walked into my office like he owned the place. Why the hell did they let him into my office?

I angrily walked to my table and took my phone and dialed my assistant's number.

“ In my office now!" I said before I ended the call.

“ What are you doing in my office?"

“ You've asked that question three times," he said with a smirk.

“ And you haven't given me an answer so I'm going to ask you again, why are you in my office? Don't get me angry." I said.

" Come on what's wrong if I check up on my one and only,” Eww that was so gross to hear.

If it was the time we were dating maybe that word would have made me blush but what I wanted to do now is throw up on his face.

“ You're not welcome here, get going and besides nobody is allowed to see me without an appointment, so get out," I said as Mr Smith walked in.

“ Babe is this man bothering you?" He asked and I was about to ask what got into his head when I remembered the act we did at the mall.

“ So he's your type now?" Alex asked as he turned to my assistant.

“ He's way better than you and wouldn't force me to do what I don't want, you're my ex boyfriend and you don't want to accept defeat, get over it and get out of my office," I said.

“ You heard her, don't make me force you," my assistant said.

“ You think you can talk to me when you're acting like a puppy following his master,” Alex said as he turned his full attention to my assistant.

“ A puppy? You look like a grumpy man who can't take no for an answer, it's either you walk out or I'll call the security," My assistant calmly said.

" I don't even know why they would let him come up to my office, I have to make sure he's stopped from entering this company,” I said.

" You think you're something now that you've been made the CEO of this company, you'll regret letting this man talk to me,” he said with clenched fists.

" We both know that I'll be more than you'll ever be whether I am the CEO or not and that's something you can't deal with so get lost,” I said as I folded my hands looking at him.

“ This isn't over," he said in anger as he looked between my assistant and I before walking out of my office and banging the door like he owns the fucking place.

“ Make sure not to come back!" I shouted in annoyance.

“ Get back to work!" I shouted at my assistant who quietly walked out of my office. My mood was already sour and that stupid man just made everything worse.

I needed to calm down, anger was not the thing to do right now, take deep breaths Ariana, deep breaths. I cautioned myself before I went back to my chair to continue my work.

Now was not the time to let my emotions get the best of me.

HARDIN'S POV

I couldn't count how many times I've watched the footage that was sent to me.

But yet I couldn't see the face of the person that walked out of my boss's room she stayed in in Paris.

Whoever this person was had it all planned out.

The matter was being investigated in Paris and I already sent it to a private investigator to look into it while I take care of it myself.

My eyes were already beginning to ache because of how I've forced myself to look at the screen trying to find anything that would point out who the person in the video was but no matter how I looked I still came up with nothing.

It was fucking annoying the hell out of me.

“ Just one thing, one little sign that would point out that fucker and send him or her to jail where criminals belong," I said to myself as I ran my fingers through my hair.

The person was dressed in all black from head to toe. This was thoroughly executed because a hotel like that is supposed to have good security then how come someone was able to get into my boss's damn room.

He or she would look good dressed in a prison uniform..

Prick.

I went back to work when I couldn't find anything from watching the video.

I heard the office phone vibrate with a call and I stopped what I was doing to pick the call.

“ Yes Miss Miller," I said.

“ In my office now," she said and before I could say a word she ended the call just like when she first called me when her prick of an ex came.

I had a feeling as to why she might be calling me so I took my phone and walked out of my office.

When I reached her door I knocked as I heard her voice telling me to come in. I opened the door and walked in and she looked busy with what she was doing on the computer before she stopped to look at me.

“ I need to see the hotel footage that was sent to you," Just like I thought.

I brought out my phone from my pocket and opened the video then I passed the phone to her.

“ I don't see what you're showing me?" She said and I looked at her in confusion before walking around her table as I went to stand behind her.

“ Oh sorry, sorry my phone is in lock mode so you can't operate it without my consent,” I apologized as I removed my phone from lock mode then handed it to her.

She played the video and then I watched as she drew her brows together in concentration.

I was also looking at the screen hoping that maybe seeing it with someone might help and I'll see something.

“ This doesn't solve anything, it still doesn't show who took the emerald eye and neither does it help in getting it back, this is a waste of my time, I thought you…”

" Wait,” I suddenly said, stopping whatever she wanted to say as I took my phone from her and looked closely at the screen.

Why didn't I notice it earlier? No matter how little the information was, it could be all we need.

I've found something.
