Seeing everyone backing Miranda, Elizabeth was livid. However, she had to keep a neutral expression and struggled to control her rage. 

She said, “You never really know someone’s true nature. What if it’s all an act? I checked the data on my computer yesterday morning, and it was all there. But today, it’s gone. 

“I remember Sandy and Dr. Quinton were the first to leave yesterday afternoon, and Bryan and I left soon after. So, that leaves just Miranda and Dr. Jefferson. He has no reason to do this, so it must be her.” 

Her accusation sounded logical at first, but Miranda caught the Inconsistency. She turned to Elizabeth.” You said you checked the data yesterday morning. Did you recheck it before you left?”

t it obvious? Someone deliberately erased the footage. No wonder they suggested checking the cameras. It’s clear they were prepared for this.” Elizabeth crossed her arms, hinting that Miranda was the culprit. 

Paul arrived at the lab after his class and found no one there. He asked the security guard and headed to the control room. 

His calm, dark eyes swept over everyone. “What’s going on? Why is everyone here?” 

Elizabeth was the first to speak, and she looked aggrieved. “Dr. Jefferson, someone deleted my experimental data. I spent a week collecting it, and just when I was ready to upload it, it was gone. Her voice grew more emotional. “Miranda has been the last one to leave the laboratory these past two days. With the footage missing, she’s the prime suspect. I have reason to believe she deliberately deleted
