Chapter 1870

Ellinor’s eyes flashed with hope. It seemed as if the lady had remembered something, causing Ellinor’s eyes to focus sharply. “What? What have you remembered?”

“I remember now. That girl named Megan used to always shamelessly throw herself at my husband. Being the gentleman that he is, he never paid her any mind. But she was always hanging around our sous chef named John. She was always asking him to do this and that for her. Not long after I fired her, our sous chef quit suddenly. I think there might be a connection.”

Ellinor saw a glimmer of hope and clutched the owner’s hand tightly. “Do you perhaps have a picture of this employee that I could see?”

The lady owner thought for a moment. “Yes, I do. Last month, he was still working here. For our shop’s third anniversary, we took a group photo. Honey, you must have posted that photo on your Facebook, right? Quickly show it to this lady.”

Upon hearing his wife’s command, the diner owner quickly pulled out his phone, opened his Facebook app, and found the photo.

“Here it is. The employee on the far right of the photo.”
