President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 818

The other servants also nodded.

“Yeah, that explains it.”

“Who can go in without the key? We can’t really fly into the control room, can we?”

“In other words, the suspect isn’t among we people working in the kitchen.”

But someone who was more coolheaded immediately asked, “Could anyone have stolen the key and then put it back in your pocket?”

The man in charge of surveillance cameras quickly shook his head.

“That can’t happen. I carry the key with me everywhere. It never left my pocket. No one could have stolen it.”

Hearing his words, the others were more bemused.

No one had stolen the key, but the footage had indeed been edited. Could it be done by a ghost?

At this thought, some servants’ faces paled.

Of course, Queeny never believed ghosts existed.

She still seemed unruffled. Her cool and steady eyes swept each of the servants’ faces.

At last, she locked her eyes on a girl standing in the corner.

This girl was very young, about 16. Perhaps she was not even old enough to work.

Queeny remembered that once when she passed by the garden, she overheard some other maids’ chitchat, who mentioned that this girl had been working here for three years.

Since she looked about 16 now, she must be around 13 three years ago.

She was surprised that Felix had hired such a young girl to be a maid here. At that time, she even felt sorry for the girl. Because of this, she began to pay more attention to her.

Right now, the girl was lowering her head. Her nose almost reached her chest.

Her hands were wringing the corners of her shirt in anxiety. At a glance, one could tell she was tense and fearful.

This puzzled Queeny.

“What’s with you?” she abruptly asked.

Everyone was stunned by her question. Next, they all followed her gaze and turned to look at the girl.

As if she had sensed their gazes, the girl looked up, revealing her pallid and perturbed face.

“Nothing…”

Though she claimed she was okay, her trembling voice betrayed her. She was clearly feeling guilty.

Queeny’s eyes darkened.

Bella had also noticed something wrong by now.

She was not stupid after all. With some deliberation, she figured it all out. Then, she directly dragged the girl out of the crowd.

“Tell us, did you do it?”

Bella’s voice carried an edge due to her annoyance. Scared, the girl shivered all over. Then, without even trying to struggle, she dropped to her knees with a flop.

“No, I didn’t! It’s not me! I found them in the garden!”

Her remark staggered all the people on the scene.

As if something had occurred to her, Ella’s eyes turned cold. She then spun around and headed out.

Queeny didn’t stop her. Soon, Ella came back, holding several boxes of the highest-graded chicken meat.

With a pained look on her face, she said, “Miss Horton, I found them.”
