Chapter 363 Two Conditions
Ethan's words made Eliza's whole body stiffen instantly.
Leah was dead...
It was completely impossible for Leah to admit her mistake in front of Beau.
However ...
Eliza suddenly thought of her recording pen!
She had a recording!
Thinking of this, Eliza quickly put her hand into her pocket.
Empty.
No.
The recording pen that should have been lying in her pocket... disappeared.
Why didn't she see it?
Wasn't the recording pen always in her pocket?
Eliza bit down on her lips and quickly searched through everywhere.
No.
She still didn't find it.
Ethan could not help but frown when he saw her rummaging around. "What are you looking for?"
"The recording pen."
Eliza bit her lips and looked up anxiously at Ethan's face.
"Before Leah died, I asked her how she schemed against Beau. She told me everything."
"I recorded it..."
"But I can't find my recording pen!"
Ethan's eyebrows pricked up.
If there really was that recording pen that Eliza spoke of...
Without a doubt, this recording pen would become the key to waking Beau!
He hurriedly began to help Eliza search.
The two of them searched all the places, but in the end, they still found nothing.
"Maybe you dropped it somewhere. Where did you go just now?"
Eliza frowned. "I just..."
After Leah jumped off the building, Eliza stayed in her own ward the entire time.
Later, Graciana came.
Later on, she received a call from Matthew.
In the end, Roseane got injured, and they returned to the hospital.
So if this recording pen was dropped somewhere, then apart from the car and the hospital, there was only the restaurant left.
Eliza rubbed her glabella and said, "You can accompany me to that restaurant."
She remembered that on the roof of the restaurant, in order to prevent Roseane from doing stupid things, she had recklessly stepped forward and kicked the knife in Roseane's hand.
If she dropped the recording pen, it was very likely that it was at that time.
Ethan nodded and pulled Eliza all the way downstairs from the hospital. They rushed to the restaurant where the accident had happened as fast as they could.
The restaurant had been closed, and the boss was leading the staff to clean up.
Eliza and Ethan talked a lot and even gave the boss money, so the boss agreed to let them have a look at the surveillance video where Eliza had kicked away the knife in Roseane's hand.
As expected.
When Eliza kicked off the knife in Roseane's hand, the recording pen that was placed in the pocket of her pants also dropped out.
Later, there were so many people on the rooftop. In the surveillance, they no longer saw the recording pen.
Eliza took a deep breath and directly rushed out of the monitoring room and onto the rooftop.
The rooftop was clean and tidy. There was not even a trace of dust on it, let alone her recording pen.
Several staff members were mopping the floor.
Eliza once again felt despair.
After asking, she learned that all the garbage on the rooftop had been thrown to the garbage station.
When Eliza asked them if they saw that recording pen, the cleaners all stuttered.
There was no other way.
She closed her eyes and decided to go to the garbage station.
Eliza and Ethan followed the garbage truck for several kilometers, and in the end, they finally intercepted the garbage truck.
But...
No matter how they flipped through it, they couldn't find the recording pen Eliza was looking for.
The life-saving recording pen seemed to have evaporated from the world, leaving no trace.
Eliza refused to admit defeat and searched through the restaurant again and again.
By ten o'clock in the evening, the restaurant was closed, but she still stayed there and refused to leave.
"Are you looking for this?"
Just as Eliza returned to the rooftop and was about to recall the scene, a clear female voice rang out.
She frowned and looked up in the direction of the voice.
At the entrance of the rooftop, Kezia, dressed in white, stood there with a small recording pen in her hand.
The recording pen's appearance was exactly the same as the one Eliza left behind!
Eliza's eyes instantly began to shine when she saw the recording pen.
"Where did you find it?"
Kezia shrugged her shoulders. "I just picked it up randomly when you dropped it today."
As she spoke, she elegantly sat down on a chair beside her, with a cold and distant smile on her lips.
"Today, I saw you running up and down here, and how many times you went to a garbage station..."
She glanced at the dirty and smelly clothes on Eliza, and a smug smile appeared on her lips.
She fiddled with the recording pen in her hand.
"This thing seems to be rather important to you?"
Eliza narrowed her eyes. "Yes."
She strode in front of Kezia. "This recording is very important to me."
"Please return it to me."
"Return it to you?"
Kezia raised her eyebrows and hid the recording pen in the closest place. "It's not impossible for me to return it to you."
"But, Eliza, since this thing is very important to you..."
"You should know that you can't take it back without paying a price, right?"
Eliza closed her eyes and sucked in a breath of cold air.
"What do you want?"
Of course, she knew that Kezia was here to discuss terms with her.
Otherwise, why would Kezia wait until now to look for her with this object?
Kezia just wanted to see how important this recording pen was to Eliza.
Only when she knew how important it was could she continue negotiate.
Although she hated Kezia to the extreme, but for Beau...
She still had to endure.
She took a deep breath and looked at Kezia's face.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"Money?"
"I can..."
"I do want money."
Kezia curled her lips, and her voice was indifferent with a hint of pride.
"But I need something else."
She curled her lips and proudly fiddled with her hair.
"I've heard the recording inside once. It was wonderful."
"I also know that you must want to play these recordings in loop at Beau's bedside to wake him up."
"So I split the recording into two."
"I want you to do two things for me. After finishing the two tasks, you can get the complete recording and let Beau, who is about to die, listen to it."
Eliza's hands clenched into fists.
She went too far!
This recording was originally hers!
But...
Although she was angry, she still smiled lightly.
"What do you want me to do for you?"
"It's very simple."
Kezia looked up at Eliza's face and said,
"First, I want Roseane to admit her mistakes, announce her divorce with Matthew, and quit the showbiz at the same time. She is never allowed to enter the showbiz again."
"Second, I want you to declare in the name of Beau's widow that Beau is dead and give all his inheritance to his twin brother Chester."
