Chapter 977
It seemed that Charmine had to talk with those elderly men for a long while to be able to access the system.
He stroked her head by impulse. 'Thank you so much." His words, however, only made Charmine feel guiltier.
The access was indeed given to her by those men. However, she spent no effort in getting it. In fact, Kay and his men even used this access to wipe out all of the evidence.
Anthony would not be able to find out anything using this access. She was merely trying to divert his attention, to slow down the process, yet there he was-thanking her.
Hopefully, he would not have her head when he learned the truth. 1
When they got home, Anthony went to the computer room and used the most advanced computer to log in and investigate.
With that, he spent the rest of the day working on it.
When Charmine saw that he was busy in the computer room, she left secretly and sent a text to Guy and Hugh,
[Remove all evidence from the river as soon as possible.]
Anthony had arranged for his men to dig out the motorbike. Although there was no fingerprint left on the vehicle, it would still be detrimental if the vehicle was brought out from the river. 1
Meanwhile, she had to find out the sword’s location so she could complete her mission, and only then could she come clean to Anthony.
Somehow, she had been having a strange feeling as if something bad was about to happen...
As expected, on the next morning, Anthony suddenly received a call.
"President Bailey, the motorbike was taken out from the river but someone burned it down over the night. No evidence was left behind. Again, the footage was completely destroyed this time."
Anthony's drowsiness evaporated at that instant.
The evidence was wiped out again? No evidence was left behind?
Perhaps only a few moguls from the national security organization would be so daring.
National Security...
Anthony explained, "Of course not, I'm just asking you for some clues. Or perhaps you know if anyone among the Chernys is likely to have access to the national security system?"
Charmine recalled her conversation with Grandma Bailey. She wanted Charmine to earn the approval of the Cherny family, but at the same time, the Chernys had a marriage arrangement with the Grangers.
If Anthony knew about it, it would be a stalemate.
For the sake of their future, Charmine had no choice but to meet his gaze." Do you think I’d know? I don't even know much about the Chernys yet."
It was true: She did not know much about the Chernys nor their background. All she knew of them was through Grandma Bailey and that she wanted the red wolf's bone from them.
When Anthony saw how calm she was, it seemed as if she was not hiding anything. He could not help reaching out to ruffle her head. "My bad. Sleep for a little longer, I'll get things fixed." 1
Charmine nodded, though she remained worried.
Anthony was already suspicious, and he had always been a sensitive person.
This must not go on like this. Perhaps she should work quicker...
