‘I have to see it first before I can confirm.”
Rose remained steadfastly gazing at the man in front of her.
She still felt deep down that the man was deliberately favoring Madeleine and Rachel, but she didn’t show it and her face remained calmElliot saw Rose's resolute attitude, pursed his lips slightly, and finally nodded gently.
He got up and took out the surveillance video from the shelf in his study, handing it to the woman standing nearby.
Rose strode to reach the man, and she grabbed it from him
She hesitated while clutching the videotape and asked, "Can I borrow your computer?"
Elliot nodded lightly and stood still without moving.
For some reason, Rose felt uneasy. She inserted the surveillance video tape into the computer interface and clicked on the play buttonIn the video, Tom looked at Rachel's direction with a dazed expression and a strange smile on his lips.
In the next instant, Elliot's figure suddenly moved. He lunged towards Rachel.
Rachel's terrified scream rang out, followed by the sudden push of the door as the once lively birthday party descended into chaos.Despite the obstruction of others, Tom still recklessly rushed towards Rachel and eventually got knocked unconscious by someone with a stick.The video playback ends here.
Rose stood in front of the computer, her pretty face filled with an expression of disbelief.
She didn't expect her brother to actually do something like this.novelbin
"No, this isn't true. My brother is definitely not that kind of person.”
Rose shook her head firmly.
She always thought that the video Elliot hid was the evidence to prove her brother's innocence
But unexpectedly, this surveillance footage not only couldn't prove her brother's innocence, but instead gave malicious individuals reason to believehe had intentionally raped Rachel.
The next moment, Elliot's cold voice echoed in the study, interrupting Rose's thoughts.
"I don't believe Tom is that kind of person either, so I kept this surveillance tape and didn't let it fall into the hands of the police.”
He paused for a moment and then continued, "Otherwise, if your brother's charges are confirmed, there will be nothing we can do later.”Rose only understood at this point that Elliot had removed the surveillance video to protect his brother, not to frame him.
Even if she saw the surveillance footage with her own eyes. she still wouldn't believe this fact.
She furrowed her brows, staying silent for a moment before speaking in a low voice, "I want to see my brother, ask him face-to-face what reallyhappened back then.”
Elliot pressed his lips together and remained quiet, gazing at her calmly.He knew that Tom was Rose's weak spot.And she would undoubtedly make concessions for this.
Understanding the man's implication, Rose hesitated for a moment before continuing, "I know I don’t have the right to ask for your help, but what if Ioffer you a deal in exchange?"
A mixture of emotions flickered in the man's eyes. He was both anticipating Rose to propose a condition that would satisfy him and fearing that onceshe fulfilled that condition. she would leave without hesitation.

"Is that my sister's voice?!" Tom suddenly turned his head towards where Rose was coming from with an excited look on his face
There stood a slender woman walking towards him with slightly reddened eyes looking very emotional

“It's me, Brother! It's me, Rose. I'm still alive!" choked out by tears, Rose answered back again calling out loudly. Her tears couldn't be held back anylonger falling down uncontrollably from her eyes.
