Chapter 298
Elinor wasn’t phased, nor did she buy what Balfour was saying.
How could she have been caught on tape doing something she’d never done? Was it some sort of illusion?
“Where’s this video? Let me see it,” she said coolly.
Balfour nodded subtly at his secretary, who turned on the TV in the room.
Then he started fiddling with his phone, casting the video onto the big screen for everyone to see.
The video showed a female influencer standing by the rails on the Bund, live streaming with her selfie stick.
Her angle just so happened to capture the street behind her, with Elinor unwittingly stepping into the frame.
There was Elinor, off to the right edge of the video, sitting alone on a bench by the Bund with a Coke in hand, gazing vaguely upward with an indiscernible expression.
But her solitude made the scene appear rather melancholic.
Seeing herself on the screen, Elinor frowned awkwardly and asked, “Isn’t that just me?”
Balfour turned to her and said, “So, Ms. Mendoza, you admit that the person sitting on the bench in the corner of the frame is you?“.
Feeling sorry for the guy working so late and making such an effort, Elinor agreed, scanning his QR code and signing up as a member of the barbecue joint.
She figured, What’s the harm? Maybe she’d try the place out someday….
And this whole interaction was accidentally captured by the live streaming influencer!
But because they were quite a distance away and the wind by the riverside was strong, coupled with the influencer’s focus on soliciting gifts from her viewers, the actual conversation between Elinor and the flyer guy couldn’t be heard!
With their conversation not audible and the video only showing them sitting together, with Elinor scanning the guy’s QR code,
It left a lot of room for speculation!
