The man, dressed in a neatly tailored business suit and with his hair perfectly styled, scrutinized the phone.
“Mr.
Delgado, it seems she’s not interested in continuing this conversation.
Perhaps you should try again.
”
“You speak with her,” Bagot suggested, waving his hand dismissively.
“If we want to find out who attacked me, she’s our only lead.
”
Realizing the conversation had stalled, Hannah was about to exit the chat when a new message appeared.
[I heard that Remington has yet to gather any concrete evidence to arrest those who attacked us.
The Juarez family has been exerting pressure on Remington and his family.
]
Hannah’s frown was slight but noticeable.
Another message quickly followed.
[The Austin family and the Lyons family are locked in a severe dispute over the death of an heir.
Miss Moore, have you seen thetest headlines?]
Her expression grew stern.
[I’ve seen them, but I’m not involved, so I haven’t paid much attention.
]
The person on the other end seemed to anticipate her response, replying almost immediately.
[Miss Moore, you previously inquired about the masked man.
Surely, you must know something about him, right? I heard from the news that the masked man who attacked me also killed Rhett.
Were you aware of that?]
Staring at her phone screen, Hannah suddenly smiled.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
[Mr.
Delgado, you’re beating around the bush.
You’re trying to ask about that man, but I’m sorry to say that even the police are at a loss about his identity, let alone myself.
]
The suited man typing for Bagot paused upon seeing Hannah’s message, then reported, “Mr.
Delgado, it appears we won’t be able to extract any information from her.
”
“Mr.
Yates, please test her once more to ensure she isn’t coborating with Remington.
”
Hannah was already irritated that Bagot was testing her, but then another message arrived.
[I apologize, Miss Moore.
I had no idea there were cameras all over Remington’s vi, even in our rooms.
It’s surprising that we still couldn’t catch him with all that surveince.
]
It was clear that Bagot suspected Remington and Hannah were conspiring to obscure the truth about the attack.
Hannah quickly typed a barrage of replies, her tone less than polite.
[If you truly felt sorry, Mr.
Delgado, you wouldn’t have asked such a pointed question.
]
[Even 360-degree surveince cameras didn’t catch the suspect.
So, why would you think to question me, of all people?]
[I’ve mentioned that my duty is to aid those in need.
Mr.
Delgado, do you take that seriously, or do you think I should also be spearheading the investigation? That’s absurd.
]
Upon reading the flurry of messages from Hannah, Cowan Yates, Bagot’swyer, felt a chill.
He quickly passed the phone back to Bagot, saying, “Mr.
Delgado, it seems Miss Moore is quite upset.
”
