The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 736:

Her heart sank as she searched every nook, even asking the doctors if they had seen it. The doctors responded with a shake of their heads.

Alicia searched relentlessly but found nothing. She collapsed onto the bed, a deep sense of emptiness wrapping around her as if her very essence had been drained away.

A man’s voice came through, asking, “Ms. Bennett, are you still interested in acquiring the surveillance footage from that night?”

Alicia’s eyes narrowed, her mind racing as she processed the information. Covering her phone, she ended the conversation with the doctor and moved to a quiet corner.

“What surveillance are you talking about?” she asked, feigning ignorance.

The man on the other end let out a mocking laugh.
