Chapter 296
Elizabeth headed straight to Base M, heeding to find out who leaked info about Esme ASAP. She couldn’t stand any injustice, even a tiny bit.
Felix was deep into the hospital’s surveillance footage, checking every corner but finding no one entering Nick’s office.
“Check the window surveillance,” Elizabeth said coldly.
Felix turned and saw her standing behind him. “Mr. Percy, when did you get here?”
“Just now,” she replied, clearly angry.
Felix was so focused he hadn’t noticed her arrival. He quickly switched the footage, glancing cautiously at Elizabeth.
“The hospital windows?” Felix said, incredulous. “Mr. Percy, that’s over thirty floors up. Entering through the window just to report Esme? That’s nuts!”
“There’s a balcony outside Nick’s office window. It’s possible,” Elizabeth clarified.
Felix pulled up the footage from Nick’s office. One angle faced the balcony directly.
Elizabeth’s phone rang; it was Alexander.
Alexander: [No matter what, I hope you find a chance to apologize to Esme and calm her down.]
Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
Elizabeth: [Apologize? No way.]
She sent the message and blocked Alexander again. She’d unblocked him for divorce updates, but he was better off blocked. He was messing with her mood.
Last time, she couldn’t find out who leaked the divorce news. This time, if she found out who wrote the anonymous letter, she’d make Alexander apologize to her!
“Look, there’s a shadow,” Felix pointed at the window.
Elizabeth noted the time: 1 AM. The timing matched; Nick had seen the report letter early that morning.
The shadow was cautious, sticking to the wall, never showing a full face, then entering a blind spot.
“Can’t see anymore,” Felix said.
Elizabeth bit her lip, stroking her chin. This figure looked familiar.
“To be so familiar with Mr. York’s office, it must be someone from the hospital, right?” Felix asked.
Elizabeth looked up.
Felix zoomed in and adjusted the brightness.
“Can you check the surveillance outside the balcony?” Elizabeth asked.

“No problem,” Felix said, snapping his fingers. Base M could do anything.
“Mr. Percy, has Alexander pissed you off again? Oliver’s working on new computer virus; we can keep infecting his systems with it!” Felix joked while checking the footage.
Elizabeth got angrier. She smacked Felix on the head. “I haven’t even settled the score with you for selling me out last time. Do you know how much money I lost?”
“No way. He actually asked you for money? Felix looked surprised.
Elizabeth pouted. ‘Yes, he did. I really transferred money to Alexander the next day. He accepted it right away.”
Elizabeth crossed her arms, convinced she’d fallen for a jerk. Alexander had no character, no responsibility, no intelligence–just a good–looking face!
“Found it,” Felix, said, pulling up the outside footage.
Elizabeth immediately saw the person’s face clearly.
“Zoom in!” she said, her voice trembling.
Next to Nick’s office was a break room. The break room window opened directly to Nick’s office balcony. This person was bold enough to actually jump over!

‘Ms. Percy‘ not ‘Mr.‘ when referring to Elizabeth.
