Chapter 196

John immediately arranged for someone to follow Luther. He also went to the police station and asked a contact to show him CCTV footage of the route that Marie had taken to go to Edric's villa. He found that while Marie was on the way to the villa, there had been

someone sitting at the back of her car. The person was covered up so well so their face could not be seen clearly.

On the way back, the same person was still in Marie's car. This time however, Marie had taken a turn into a small alley, and after she came back out, the person in her car was gone.

Although they could not see the person's appearance clearly, it was a meaningful discovery. When Marie had gone to the Myers home, the blackout had not happened yet, which meant that the surveillance cameras in the villa were still working. Perhaps they would be able to uncover something.

John hurried back to get the surveillance footage of the villa. He saw that while Marie's car had entered the property, the person was still in the backseat. However, when she reached the villa, her passenger had mysteriously disappeared.

John immediately told Edric about his discovery. After Edric seriously watched the tapes, he sneered and said, "This person is still in the car."

Seeing that John was confused by his explanation, he continued, "Marie's car has tinted glass all around except for her front windshield. That means you can't see the inside of her car from the sides or the back of her car. Earlier, when you had seen a passenger in the backseat, you were looking in from the front. That's why you were able to see them. However, after entering my house, that person must have ducked down or laid down in the car to stay hidden. That way, the front camera would not be able to detect them. Our villa's security guard knows Marie well, so he probably didn't pay that much attention to her and had overlooked that there was a person hiding in her car."

"That makes sense," John understood the situation after hearing Edric's explanation, "That means that the person had been hiding in the car, and they only came out after the security had left and there were no surveillance cameras around. It seems that this person must have something to do with Mrs. Myer's fainting."

Edric nodded, "Before this, I already had my suspicions about Marie being at my house. However, I didn't expect such a huge discovery. I guess you never really know a person's true colors."

"Marie and Mrs. Myer are friends, and there was no conflict between them. Why would she want to hurt Mrs. Myers?" John felt that the situation was too shocking.

"I'm trying to figure that out too. As long as you keep an eye on Marie, the truth will be revealed," Edric smirked coldly.

Although she had personally tested Edric, Marie was still worried. She asked Deborah to tell Steven about Margaret fainting and her injury.

Steven was shocked. He could not believe that Irene

Irene were over. Now that Irene was pregnant and Eden was sick, Edric temporarily had no plans to investigate further. However, it was really only temporary. Once the child was born and Eden got better, he would definitely find a way to obtain custody of the two children. Edric even criticised that with such a vile
