Corinne did not panic at all as she did not believe a word Lucas said. Why would she, when she didnothing wrong? There was no way a camera could record something that never even happened in thefirst place.
“Alright, why don’t you play the video, then?” she asked calmly.
Lucas jerked up his chin once, gesturing to the secretary to turn on the television in the room. Then, heconnected the mobile phone to the television screen so that everyone could watch the video.
The video showed a female influencer standing on top of the embankment railing. A selfie stick washeld high up in her hand, and it was obvious she was doing a live broadcast. The angle of the selfiestick happened to allow her phone camera to capture the street behind her, and Corinne could be seenin the right corner of the video.
She was sitting alone on a bench, drinking Coke, and looking up at the sky. She was too far off to beable to tell what she was feeling. However, she did seem a little sad and lonely to be sitting there allalone.
Corinne frowned with embarrassment when she saw just how pathetic she looked in the video. “Ahem!As you can all tell, I was alone.”
Lucas looked at her. “So you’re confirming the person sitting on top of the bench in the right corner ofthe video was you?”
“Yeah, it’s me. So where’s the perpetrator you so vehemently

insisted was there with me?” Corinne asked serenely.

“All in good time, Miss Corinne.” Lucas‘ eyes darkened. Then, he clicked fast forward on the phonebefore stopping at a particular time frame. After the video returned to normal speed, they saw a youngman with a bundle of leaflets walking over and sitting next to Corinne.
The bespectacled young man looked to be about five feet and seven inches tall, slightly on the plumpside and was dressed in a striped shirt. After sitting down for a while, the young man handed a leafletto Corinne. He introduced the newly- opened barbecue place, its opening hours, promotions, and otherdetails.
Corinne listened absent–mindedly and glanced at the leaflet before accepting it. The young man alsoasked for her social media account so that he could send her the membership that she could apply toget a free plate of premium steak.
Corinne decided to sign up for the membership after considering the facts that the young man was stillworking at such a late hour, how he enthusiastically recommended the food worth getting, and that hewould receive a commission for any successful membership registration which would definitely helpwith his living expenses.
Corinne scanned the QR code on his phone and followed his instructions to sign up for the restaurantmembership. At that time, she thought she was getting a good deal and could not wait to invite LittleRain Drop and King Maple to go there for dinner.
It never crossed Corinne’s mind that all that would be accidentally recorded by a female influencer.However, it was
just her luck that no one could hear the conversation between her and the young man since the femaleinfluencer’s high- pitched voice asking for sponsorship was louder than theirs. These two factors -notbeing able to hear what Corinne and the young man were talking about and her scanning the QR codeon the young man’s phone–put Corinne back at the top of the suspect list.
