Despite all the hard work, they still didn't find anything conclusive. When they tried to retrieve the surveillance footage, they noticed signs of tampering. It took a lot of effort from the tech team to restore and recover it.
Running a hand through his hair, Atlas couldn't help but ask, "Miss Mira, who is this Paul guy, really?"
Mirabella was already flipping through the documents she pulled from the folder. She skimmed through them quickly, and only when she reached the last page did she look up to respond, "An old friend."
Thinking back to the elderly man in the footage, who looked like the very picture of wisdom, calling him an old friend seemed accurate enough. Atlas didn't ask further about how Miss Mira knew him.
Instead, he pointed to a USB drive in the folder, "Oh, and Miss Mira, one of the surveillance clips was restored by my team."
Mirabella responded with a slight narrowing of her eyes.
Morgan, besides mastering a smartphone, was clueless about advanced tech, let alone erasing surveillance records. Gathering her thoughts, Mirabella put the documents back into the folder, "Got it, thanks, Atlas."
"No need to thank me, Miss Mira. Just doing my job," Atlas said with a friendly smile, adding, "I'll keep tabs on this Paul."
"Alright," Mirabella nodded.
"If there's nothing else, I'll head out."
