Jake had started to panic by then.

Nevertheless, he got the room key from the hotel and opened the door.

When the door opened, however, he realized that Devin had not moved, as if he had been fused to the

chair.

Jake, who had been watching over Devin yesterday, was even more worried. What on earth did he see in

the surveillance footage? What would make a calm and collected man react in this manner?

He wondered whether he should tell Sebastian about this.

“Devin, you…” Jake said.

“What’s the time now?” He was rather surprised to hear the other man’s voice.

Devin had been sitting in the chair for more than ten hours. When he finally muttered huskily with

bloodshot eyes, it seemed like he had retrieved his voice from the void.

Jake was stunned.

A few seconds later, he regained his senses and checked his watch. “It’s almost seven in the morning.

There are a number of phone calls at Red Pavilion, saying that Sebastian’s looking for you. Do you want

to head back, Devin?”

“Okay.” Devin nodded.

Then, Jake watched as he got up from the chair. He squeezed the tape in his hands. Without warning, he

tossed it out of the window.

The tape fell out of the tall building.

“What… What are you doing, Devin? Why did you throw it away? That’s the last original footage, and we

spent a long time finding it. There’s nothing left after you throw it away.” Jake felt exasperated.

He rushed to the windowsill. Unfortunately, the tape had landed on the ground below, and it was

smashed to smithereens.

Devin has gone mad! Yesterday, he was the one who was hell-bent on finding this thing. Today, he’s also

the one who throws it away. What the hell is he trying to do?

“Devin, can you tell me something? What the hell did you see in the footage? Is it exactly as Ms. Shanae

said? Never mind, then. Don’t marry her if you don’t want to. We’ll help you!” Jake said.

He thought what the woman said was true, which was the reason for Devin’s fury.

After that, Jake began to console Devin.

He even brought up Sebastian and said that they would help him.

Yet, Devin ignored him. As soon as he discarded the tape, it seemed like a burden had been lifted off his

shoulders. He heaved a sigh and walked away.

Jake was at a loss for words.

Then, he followed Devin.

He still did not understand him, even though he knew him for many years. It was Jake’s first time seeing

Devin behave in this manner, and it perplexed him.

Finally, the two of them left Coldbridge by car.

They reached Jadeborough a little after ten in the morning, and they headed straight for the Red

Pavilion.

“You’re finally back, Mr. Jadeson. Mr. Sebastian is looking for you and has phoned up numerous times.

He has gone to the military base,” the housemaid said.

“Huh?” Jake was astonished when he heard the housemaid’s words.

“Why is Sebastian looking for you? He even went to the military base. Is something going on? He has

never done this before,” he addressed Devin.

It was strange, indeed, for Sebastian seldom looked for someone in such a hurry. Furthermore, it was

rare for him to be proactive in paying others a visit.

So, is something up?

Devin was taken aback, too.

Soon, he returned to his car silently. He started it up and drove to the military base.

Does Sebastian know about the tape? I bet he does!

The other day, Mark told him that the videotape brought back by Sebastian contained footage of Devin

and Shanae. Strangely, when he viewed it yesterday, he found out that the content was completely

different.

Who doctored the footage?

He did not have the answer yet. However, he believed that with Sebastian’s intelligence and sharp

observation, the latter could tell that the footage was definitely doctored.

Devin drove to the military base quietly.

As expected, he saw an olive green SUV parked outside the base’s compound. Judging by the vehicle’s

temperature, it had been there for quite some time.

“Major!” A sentry saluted him.

“Did you see my brother heading in?” Devin pointed at the SUV. He still addressed Sebastian as his

brother.

The sentry nodded at once. “Yes, he’s inside. He said he’s looking for Major. I consulted my superiors,

and they let him in.”

“All right.” Devin got out of the car and told Jake to wait for him outside. Then, he entered the military

base.

What does Sebastian want to tell me?

He had no idea. Nonetheless, as soon as he passed through the gates, an idea appeared in his mind. If

he wants to talk to me about that matter, I’ll refuse!

Devin would even deny it. It was just like the destroyed videotape. Not a shred of evidence was left.

“So, you’ve finally returned.” While Devin was pondering over the matter, an impatient Sebastian had

stepped out of the former’s office. He frowned when he saw Devin and stopped in his tracks.
