Chapter 453 Surveillance Video

In the surveillance video, Byron could be seen bending down to pick up his broken phone. He fiddled with it himself and then looked as if he was sure that the phone was completely wrecked.

Afterward, he called one of the altar servers and after exchanging a few words, the altar servant ran away quickly. A moment later, the altar server returned with a phone.

Byron took the phone and seemed to thank the altar server.

He lowered his head and dialed a series of numbers, and not long after, Mia's phone rang.

The caller's identification was an unknown number.

Before Rose could say a word, Mia had already answered the phone and called out, "Byron!"

"How do you know it was me?" Byron's gentle and smiling voice came from the other side of the phone.

Mia realized that she had let her tongue slip.

But she was quick-witted and hurriedly said, "Only you will give me a call!"

"That's right," Byron chuckled, "I wasn't careful earlier and accidentally broke my phone. It didn't scare you, did it?"

Mia shook her head and said, "No."

But she didn't mention that she had thought Byron was kidnapped.

Aiden took away his laptop, lowered his eyes, and said to Rose in a low voice, "I'm going back first."

However, the words just left Aiden's mouth when he suddenly heard Byron asking Mia, "Is your brother also there?" Mia hurriedly responded, "Yes!"

Aiden's steps paused momentarily, but he didn't even say hello to Byron before going straight back to his study.

Rose watched his small back and immediately had a strange feeling in her heart.

Aiden seemed to be a little too cold towards Byron.

Although Aiden didn't seem to be very enthusiastic when dealing with anyone except his own mother, he would still show some basic courtesy to them.

Mia soon continued her conversation with Byron, which was interrupted earlier, while Rose got up and walked towards Aiden's study.

When Mia was on the island, she didn't draw in her room but always in front of the floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the sea in the living room, and Aiden had specially chosen the study on the first floor. Aiden never said it, but the grown-ups all knew that he wanted to be able to reach her sister as soon as she needed him.

Usually, the door of his study was always ajar so that he could hear his sister's movement outside.

Just like earlier, when he immediately came out the moment Mia cried.

But now, Aiden had closed the door tightly.

Rose stood at the door for a while.

Despite her curiosity, she also respected the child's privacy very much, so she didn't push the door open in the end and returned to Mia's side instead. Meanwhile, Aiden was sitting on the custom-made desk chair in the study and staring at the magnified surveillance image in a daze.

He thought, "If his phone was broken to that extent, how could it be just accidentally dropped?"

After thinking about it for a while, he stretched out his round little hand and moved the progress bar of the surveillance video backward.

Soon, Aiden saw a woman rushing towards Byron, grabbed the phone without a word, and smashed it onto the ground.

Aiden frowned slightly and thought, "This woman..."

Aiden recalled that Freya Bates, the vice president of Imbe Group, used to be the princess of a certain European royal family. According to the rumors, she was Byron's sweetheart, and Athena was Freya's substitute during the time she was by Byron's side.

In the past five years, Freya had always had a close relationship with Byron, and it was rumored countless times that Freya and Byron were about to get married.

All these rumors came from an explanation video about Byron and Athena posted on Instagram after the incident at the science museum.

Moreover, during the art exhibition last time, this woman also stayed by Byron's side the whole time.

Aiden thought, "They're fighting now? That intensely?

It couldn't be they were breaking up, could it?" Aiden thought.

Aiden paused the video, proceeded to remove the noises in the video, and amplified the vocal part.

There was a glass of milk with just the right temperature on the table. Aiden grabbed it with both hands and continued playing the video.

Initially, Aiden thought that it would be just an ordinary argument between couples.

However, he never thought he would hear something that he didn't expect at all.
