Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina) novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88

The living room was right downstairs, which was also where Janetta was killed years ago.

“If Balch had installed surveillance cameras around, we would definitely have caught Janetta’s murder on tapel Seraphina asked, looking expectantly at Terrell

“No clues so far, Terrell replied “The surveillance footage only shows ordinary daily life”

Upon hearing this, Seraphina continued to scrutinize the surveillance video

Indeed, the footage showed nothing but Janetta’s day to day activities at home. No suspicious activities were captured

“The footage has been edited” Terrell said. “Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only footage of Janetta Balch also lived in this house, we would have seen him on camera”

Seraphina’s eyes drifted toward a seriously damaged chip

Terrell noticed her gaze and said, “Don’t bother. This chip is so badly burnt, it’s beyond repair”

Seraphina picked up the chip and examined it. “What are the odds it’s this chip?”

Terrell sighed stood up, and went into the bathroom to freshen up, leaving Seraphina alone in front of the computer, silently watching the footage play out.

The surveillance tapes were indeed edited. In every clip, Janetta was on the phone. Sometimes she was all smiles, while other times she looked indifferent.

Seraphina quickly skimmed through all of the footage but failed to find what she was looking for.

She slowly closed her eyes, pressing her forehead. Could it be that after all this, she was still going to fail?

“Forget it, maybe it’s just fate,” Terrell said “There’s no way to prove his involvement in Janetta’s murder. Balch is cunning You’ve done well so far, but maybe it’s time to let it go.”

Before he could finish his sentence, Seraphina’s eyes snapped open. She quickly grabbed the laptop and began reanalyzing the chips

Terrell, watching from the sidelines, quickly realized what she was doing and rushed to help

They had only focused on the surveillance videos on the chips, but what if there was hidden content?

“Got it” Terrell suddenly shouted

Seraphina immediately turned to his computer

On the screen was a new surveillance video. In the footage, Janetta was flipping through a booklet in the living room while preparing to make a call. Behind her, a fully armed figure in black was slowly approaching!

The surveillance footage was silent, which only made the scene more horrifying.

The figure in black repeatedly stabbed Janetta, who initially struggled but gradually lost strength. She collapsed onto the sofa, her eyes wide open and blood pooling around

her

After confirming her death, the killer dropped the knife and stood quietly

The footage ended there.

“That’s not Balch Terrell said.

“It’s Fidelia Seraphina replied.

“So, Balch may not have been involved in the murder. He only helped Fidelia cover it up afterwards,” Terrell said.

Hearing this, Seraphina burst out laughing.

“What?” Terrell looked at her

“You must not have not investigated a case seriously for a long time. That’s why you’re so naive,” Seraphina said
