Chapter 1929

After that, Olivia brought everyone to a smaller banquet hall downstairs and used the projection equipment to show them the surveillance footage.

The cameras were installed near the staircase. At the beginning of the footage, it captured a few people walking by, but none approached that side of the staircase. It was not until over half an hour later that Aurora came out of the main banquet hall and entered the staircase carrying a bag.

Then, the footage switched to the entrance of the staircase on the floor above, where

Aurora came out from inside.

From the time mark, it was evident that Aurora stayed on the staircase for about ten minutes.

It was simply too suspicious.

Everyone began to shift their gaze to Aurora.

Aurora's face was pale, thinking about the identical bag Dahlia had given her before leaving. Then, she turned her head and stared at Dahlia.

However, Dahlia did not look at her. Instead, she was just watching the footage with a frown, seemingly as nervous as everyone else watching the video.

After coming out of the staircase, Aurora went into a room. However, she came back out again after a while.

She still held the same bag. However, instead of taking the same staircase down, she went down the other side.

Right after that, Stella exited the restroom and took the stairs that Aurora used to come upstairs. A few moments later, a loud noise echoed from the surveillance, accompanied by a woman's scream. After the footage ended, everyone's gaze was fixated on Aurora.

Her face turned even paler. When she met Keegan's scrutinizing look, she said anxiously,

"Keegan, it wasn't me. I swear. I'd never do anything like this..."

With a stern face, Keegan asked in a low voice, "Then what were you doing on the staircase for so long?"

"I was waiting for someone," Aurora stammered. "Mom said that she had something to tell me and asked me to wait on the staircase, so I did. But she didn't come for a long time, so I called her, and she told me to go into that room."

"What about the bag you were holding? What was inside? Why did you throw it right after you came out of the room?"

"That was the pastry Mom asked me to bring for her. She said that Mrs. Chapman was taking too long with her makeup, and she got hungry. So, I went up to give her some food.

The bag I threw away was the garbage Mom asked me to take out from the room."

"Garbage?" Olivia chuckled, took something handed over by the manager, and tossed it on the floor. "Is this the garbage?"

A bottle of Tung Oil rolled out from the same bag Aurora had thrown in the bin earlier.

Aurora was terrified, "This is not mine."

Felicity exclaimed angrily, "Aurora Kane, you heartless creature! I knew you were up to no good! Stella has been so nice to you and even made delicious food for you, yet you still want to harm her! Do you even believe in the lies you're spinning? Mrs. Chapman's family owns this hotel. If she wanted something to eat, why wouldn't she ask the kitchen staff to bring it? Why would she need you to bring it upstairs? And why use a bag? Is a plate too heavy for you?"

With red eyes, Aurora looked at Dahlia, "Mom, say something. You were the one who asked me to bring the pastries upstairs. You told me to use a bag..."

Dahlia looked incredulous as she asked in a dejected tone," Aurora, how could you do such a thing?"
