Bethan was so exhausted she was gasping for air. She rolled her eyes and immediately caught up after him.
Brettley led Bethan to the office of the doctor in charge of Cynthal.
Upon seeing Brettley and Bethan, the doctor frowned. “
Why are you back?”
“Did an adorable girl visit Cynthal Peterson?”
The doctor nodded. “Yes.”
“She said she was from Mr. Morrison’s company. She showed me a photo of you. She said that she was a good friend of yours and that you had forgotten to ask Cynthal something, so you sent her here.”
Then, the doctor scratched his head confusedly. “She just finished her question. Why did you come back? Is there something else you forgot to ask?”
Bethan helplessly knocked her head. It was due to her carelessness. From the news that Nigel gave her, she knew that Bonnie did not like Cynthal too. However, she was too careless. She did not think that Bonnie would trick her!
She took a deep breath and took out her phone. She dialed Bonnie.
No matter how many times she dialed, the call did not go through.
What the hell was going on?
Compared to Bethan’s agitation, Brettley was much calmer.
Brettley looked at the doctor. “How long has she left? How long did she see Cynthal?”
The doctor furrowed his brows. “I… don’t remember, why don’t you follow me.”
Then, he led Brettley and Bethan to the surveillance room on the top floor.
In the surveillance room, he took out the surveillance footage of the hospital corridor.
“According to the time, she has been in there for 18 minutes.”
Brettley furrowed his brows and looked at the woman in the footage.
She had long hair with huge black-framed glasses. From the footage, no one could see what she looked like.
Brettley looked at the footage. His gaze darkened. “Show me the footage of her entering and exiting. “
The staff did not dare to slack. They immediately found the footage of the corridors, including the main entrance.
“The walking posture is not the same.”
Brettley shut his eyes and sighed. “They have swapped places.”
Bethan felt as if she was instantly struck by lightning. “
Swapped? You mean Bonnie and Cynthal swapped places?”
“Hmm.”
Brettley nodded. He picked his phone up. “
Lucas, close off the airport stations and regulate the traffic. I want to see where she goes after she escapes.”
Bethan felt as if her entire head were about to explode! Bonnie’s determined gaze appeared in her mind. “I hate Cynthal.”
She bit her lips. Bethan took a deep breath. She turned to look at the doctor. “Please give me the keys to Cynthal’s room.”
She wanted to see for herself whether Cynthal was in the room or if it was Bonnie! Two minutes later, Bethan was by the door of the room.
Bethan took a deep breath and opened the door with the key.
It was quiet in the room.
The afternoon sun shone through the small window on the ceiling, forming a beam of light.
A woman in a hospital gown with messy hair was sitting at the corner with her head buried between her legs. She was so quiet it was as if she did not exist.
Bethan closed her eyes in despair.
That person was not Cynthal. Cynthal would not be so quiet and obedient.
After a while, she sighed and said, “Bonnie.”
The woman by the bed jolted a little, then she slowly lifted her head.
Under the messy hair was Bonnie’s clean face.
This was the first time that she saw Bonnie without her glasses. She did not expect that it would be under such circumstances.
“It really is you. “
Bonnie looked at Bethan and smiled bitterly yet helplessly. “I thought I could get through today.”
She did not expect that she would be exposed so quickly in less than an hour.
Seeing Bonnie’s calm look, Bethan felt a huge hammer smashing her heart. It was painful and insufferable.
She has never once suspected Bonnie, because the moment she joined Morrison Group, Bonnie presented herself as a simple, adorable, and naive girl. Bethan liked girls like Bonnie, who are young and have their own opinions.
However, she did not expect that she would be tricked by her.
Bethan took a deep breath and sat on the chair. She glanced at Bonnie coldly. “Didn’t you say that you hate Cynthal? What is it now? Because you hate her so much you start to love her? You’re willing to give up everything for her?”
“No.”
Bonnie lifted her head and looked at Bethan. She smiled gently. “I still hate her. I do this because I have my own reasons.”
“What could it be that you would do such a thing for the woman you hate?”
“Bethan, you don’t have to be so hostile.”
Bonnie chuckled gently. She pried off the chains on her hands and legs. Then, she slowly walked over and sat opposite of Bethan.
“I have a brother, not blood -related. He is a truck driver.”
Bonnie smiled and looked at Bethan. “Since we were young, we relied on each other. He sacrificed his education so that I could have one. He started driving to earn money. He spent every dime he earned on me. We are not blood-related, so when we grew up, I swore I was going to marry him. However, later on…”
Bonnie lifted her head and looked at Bethan. “He went missing. The last job he did was for Cynthal. She got him to send something across the Bay Bridge on a heavy rain afternoon.”
Heavy rain.
Truck.
Bay Bridge.
Upon hearing those keywords, Bethan suddenly shuddered!
The driver that kicked her down from the bridge inexplicably appeared in her mind!
She shuddered and closed her eyes. She tried to recall the driver’s treacherous face under the heavy rain.
“Your brother. Does he have a mole on his left face? Somewhere near the nose.”
Bonnie’s eyes widened instantly. “You knew my brother?”
Bethan’s heart sank to the bottom.
She closed her eyes. After a long while, she opened her eyes and looked at Bonnie. “What did Cynthal do to make you agree to take her place?”
Bonnie bit her lips.
“She promised me that she would help me find my brother.”
Bethan smiled bitterly. “You believe her?” “Not really, but…”
Bonnie lowered her head. “She took my phone and dialed my brother’s current phone number. I heard it. It was his voice.
“Cynthal said that when my brother was sending a shipment for her, he crashed into someone. Because he was afraid of being punished by the law, he took some money and ran. He is still living comfortably overseas, but he is afraid that someone might trick him into coming back and pay for his crimes, so other than Cynthal, he would not listen to anyone.”
