Chapter 536: Chapter 536: This place is remote and has no surveillance

The room fell silent, and Anna Campbell gritted her teeth in hatred. How dare this little bitch deny it?

She had indeed deliberately lured Xaviera Evans here to falsely accuse her, but now that her goal had been achieved, there was no need to exchange so many useless words with Xaviera.

Anna forced herself to ignore the pain on her cheek and chest. Her voice trembled slightly, “Mrs. Flack, if you don’t believe what I’m saying, let’s check the surveillance footage.”

To falsely accuse Xaviera more accurately, she had even investigated this place beforehand. Although it was remote, there was indeed a surveillance camera that happened to cover this area.

Now, with everyone watching, as long as they checked the surveillance footage, the proof of Xaviera assaulting her sister would be undeniable.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Flack sneered.

“Miss Campbell, there is no surveillance in this remote place.”

Anna’s eyes widened. How could there be no surveillance?

She had clearly visited the surveillance room before; there was a camera here. Why was Mrs. Flack saying there wasn’t? Was she deliberately shielding Xaviera?

Anna couldn’t help but shudder. She suddenly realized that since the banquet started, Mrs. Flack had always subtly defended Xaviera. And now she claimed there was no surveillance.

Anna began her grievance, “Mrs. Flack, how could there be no surveillance in the Flack family’s yard? As long as we check the footage, we’ll see that my sister hit me. Is there really no surveillance, or are you just unwilling to bring it out?”

“Mrs. Flack, I’ve been wronged! I beg you to bring out the surveillance footage!”

People looked puzzled. Although the Campbell family wasn’t known for their good character, and Anna was a ruthless person, she seemed sincere at the moment. It didn’t look like she was lying. Had Xaviera really beaten her?

Seeing everyone’s uncertain gaze, Anna raised the corners of her lips.

She knew someone would take her side. She had cried so sadly, how could anyone not believe her?

Though she had been slapped by Xaviera, it was worth it to take this opportunity to ruin Xaviera’s reputation.

Anna’s eyes filled with tears. She confidently said, “Mrs. Flack, just take out the surveillance for everyone to see. One look and the truth will be clear. My sister really hit me. I didn’t lie!”

People who heard her sincere accusation began to echo, “That’s right, Mrs. Flack. Now both parties have conflicting claims. Just take a look at the surveillance and we’ll know who’s telling the truth.”

Nidya Hughes glared sharply, “Xaviera, why aren’t you saying anything? Feeling guilty?”

Everyone’s gaze shifted onto Xaviera as she slowly raised her eyes and let out a soft chuckle.

“Didn’t Mrs. Flack just say that there’s no surveillance here?”

Nidya was enraged, speaking harshly, “Mrs. Flack is covering for you! Xaviera, not only did you beat your sister, but you also refused to admit to it. You really…”

“Covering up?” Mrs. Flack asked coldly.

“Miss Campbell, you said Xaviera hit you and asked for the surveillance footage, but I said there was none here. Then you accused me of covering for Xaviera. However, I remember this is your first time at the Flack family’s home. Why are you so sure there’s surveillance here?”

Anna choked, her heart panicked and disordered.

Mrs. Flack’s face was full of mockery, “Miss Campbell, you’re so cunning! You went sneaking off to the surveillance room, confirmed there was no surveillance, and then invited Xaviera here in the middle of the night. Subsequently, you falsely accused Xaviera of assaulting you.”

“You’re so sure there’s no surveillance, and no one knows if Xaviera really hit you or not. But as long as you lay on the ground crying, someone will believe you. You clearly knew there’s no surveillance here, yet you insist on checking it. And then you even accuse me of shielding Xaviera!”

Anna’s body went limp, her face pale.

This was impossible!

She had clearly visited the surveillance room and saw that this place had a camera, so she devised this plan. She just wanted Xaviera to act under surveillance and render her speechless.

But now, the surveillance footage had disappeared, and Mrs. Flack’s words turned the tables on her.

Nidya defended her, “Mrs. Flack! You… you’re shielding Xaviera! What did she say to you? Anna… Anna wouldn’t lie. Even if she went to the surveillance room, she might not necessarily have looked at this camera’s footage.”
