Susan eventually took her phone out after Mrs. Malcolm urged her to hurry up. She tried to call the security guard who was responsible for the villa's security, hoping to have them delete the surveillance footage.

However, before anyone could answer the call, Susan saw Luke walking toward them with Luca by his side. Then, she muttered to herself, "It's too late."

Mrs. Jackman and Mrs. Malcolm noticed Luke's arrival. The expressions on their faces turned ugly.

Indeed, it was too late. Once Luca told Luke about this, who would dare to delete the surveillance footage?

"Madam Crawford, can't you delete the surveillance footage yourself?" asked Mrs. Jackman.

Mrs. Jackman did not plan to confront Luke head-on. Her plan was to teach Luca a lesson, accuse her of theft, and make her apologize to Susan.

However, when she saw Luca's youthful and beautiful face, it reminded her of her husband's mistress. She lost her temper and threw a teapot full of boiling hot tea at her.

"I'm not familiar with the surveillance equipment, and I don't know where the computer is," Susan frowned.

She was not involved in the renovation of the villa. That was why she was not familiar with the layout of the house, not to mention where the surveillance monitoring system was...

"Mrs. Jackman, I think Luke won't let this slide so easily..." said Mrs. Malcolm. She regretted accompanying the two of them to watch this absurd spectacle unfold.

"Of course, I know that!" Mrs. Jackman's heart trembled as she watched Luke turn to look in their direction.

She had heard about what Luke had done for his wife before. Even though Luca was not his wife, she was currently his favorite person.

Therefore, Luke might really stand up for her.

"What's the matter?" Luke shifted his gaze from Susan and turned to look at Luca. He could read the helplessness in her expression. He could confirm that Susan had given Luca a hard time.

Luke had been surrounded by people after dinner. He was pulled into discussing various things about the business world. Hence, he got distracted and did not pay Luca enough attention.

He noticed that Luca was missing a moment ago. After he asked around, someone told him that they saw her heading to the backyard.
