244. Tyson - Revelations V

"Took you long enough," Jasper mutters. "I was all in from the beginning."

"I wish Olivia were here to see Tyson and Rueben finally make the right decision to be with her before I played the videos," Ansel says. "I warn you that some videos are really disturbing." Suddenly, my heart hammers in my chest. "Play them," I say.

I grab an ottoman and sit in front of the TV while Ansel plays the first video-it's of Olivia and Camila in a home office. The video has no sound, so I squint my eyes to make sense of the images. Bookcases are on three of the four walls, and the girls look at the book but can't decide which one to read. Maybe they are looking for a specific one, but they can't find it? Since I can't hear their conversations, I can only try to guess. Plus, their backs are to the camera, so reading their lips is impossible.

I guess they hear something since they rush to find a place to hide. Seconds later, one of the bookcases moves to the side, revealing a secret chamber, and the girls get inside. I hold my breath as the bookcase returns to its original position just as Senator Deymar and a man enter the office. They are so absorbed in their conversation that they don't realize what just happened.

"Olivia told Cirro and me that the man is Azael. At least the vessel he was using at that time. She believes that Azael changes his vessels often, in an attempt to hide his identity," Ansel says. I nod because that makes sense. "I won't waste time by forcing you all to watch the discussion between the Senator and Azael. They made sure their faces were away from the camera, so we don't know what was said. Cirro believes the Senator deliberately cut out the sound that night, but he might have wanted to have proof of the encounter between the two of them."

"Senator Deymar having a secret meeting with Azael is of great importance, and we need to find out what they were talking about," Jasper says.

Ansel changes the video. "I suspect Olivia might have heard the conversation but since someone chased her away, I can't ask."

"I'm sorry. What else do you want me to say?" Rueben huffs.
