My mom and Emily exchanged glances, neither of them coming forward to say anything.
After breakfast, Emily went to work, while my mom went out to catch up with her friends. Before leaving, she told me to sleep at home.
I agreed verbally, but as soon as they left, I immediately went to find the community security guard.
I asked him to show me the surveillance footage.
I really did see a very suspicious figure.
Because they were wrapped up tightly, it was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman. Judging from the height of nearly 5’10“, it should be a man.
“Is he from our community?”
“I’ve never seen him before, the security guard shook his head. “But don’t worry too much, the police are already investigating. I’m sure they’ll find the person who threw the bottle.”
I thought for a moment: “Security brother, can I sit here and watch this surveillance footage repeatedly?”
After all, I’ve lived here for over three years and have some rapport with the security guard, so he agreed.
I watched this surveillance footage dozens of times, watching until my eyes were dry, but still couldn’t figure anything out. However, someone came looking for me outside.
“To find someone, you need to register, the security guard said.
Olivia stared straight at me in the security room, saying coldly: “No need, I’m just looking for her.”
So we went to the coffee shop across the street.
“Please leave James,” Olivia commanded as soon as we sat down.
I sneered, “Miss Parker, may I ask what relation you are to James? He’s never been with you, so what right do you have to order me around?”
“Besides, he’s the father of my child, and we’ll be getting our marriage certificate soon.”
At this point, I noticed the bracelet on Olivia’s wrist.
Olivia’s face suddenly turned pale, her eyes filled with hatred and jealousy, frantically intertwining: “But Mrs. Sullivan will only accept me as her daughter–in–law.”
“If Mrs. Sullivan accepts you why don’t you let h

off.
“If Mrs. Sullivan accepts you, why don’t you let her marry you?”
“…I’m telling you, any man I set my eyes on, even if I can’t have him, I’d rather destroy him!” Olivia said through gritted teeth before storming
Watching Olivia’s figure, I felt she had really gone crazy.
To even say such things about destroying what she can’t have!
Wait, something suddenly flashed in my mind, and I quickly ran back to the security room: “Brother, let me watch that surveillance footage one more time.”
“What’s wrong? New discovery?”
“Yes!”
I enlarged the surveillance image, and you could see that the person was indeed wearing a bracelet, especially the dolphin pendant, which was exactly the same as Olivia’s!
My heart suddenly started racing.
So, the person who threw the bottle last night was Olivia!
