Alice took her phone and dialed a number which was answered almost immediately.

“Help me recover all the security footage on the second floor of Fortuna Hotel,” Alice spoke into the phone tenderly with a soft expression.

She wasn’t smiling or speaking in a low voice, but one could feel the love in her voice.

Ethan suddenly felt that the coldness that surrounded her disappeared and he saw a tenderness in her that he never witnessed.

He paused in his actions and wondered who she was talking to. Who’s that? That person could affect her mood so easily. It changed the instant she spoke to them.

At that moment, Ethan realized he was jealous of the person on the other end of the phone for being on the receiving end of her gentle words.

“Okay,” Apollo answered promptly. He didn’t even ask why. Whatever Alice wanted, he would do it for her.

Alice didn’t hang up as she knew Apollo was competent and could recover the footage any second since it was only destroyed by people like Elijah. So, she chose to wait for him on the line.

Everyone could hear a pin drop in the hallway. Even though Alice wasn’t as commanding as before and had become so friendly, no one dared speak a word.

The Wolands were also terrified of Alice and kept their mouths shut. Even Elijah backed away and hid behind the police.

Alas, he didn’t realize the severe consequences of that phone call.

In the lounge, Charles’ expression changed when he heard Alice’s words. But he told himself to stay calm since the footage had been destroyed. So, she couldn’t recover them.
