"I'm sorry, miss. We have strict rules here. The surveillance video can't be shown to others at will. I hope you can understand us!"
"No! I just want to have a look. Can you make an exception for me? I'm really in a hurry." Elizabeth waved her hand and said anxiously.
She hurried all the way from South Lake to Grand Dynasty Hotel and then went to the stairwell to have a look uneasily. There was really a security camera there. She went upstairs to find James, but no one replied to her in the room. She patted the door and called his name for a long time. In the end, the security guard came up and dragged her away, saying that she had disturbed others' rest.
She knew that it was probably James's order. Although she was sad, she did not dare to delay. She went straight to the monitoring room in Grand Dynasty Hotel. However, no matter how she tried to persuade the staff, they did not allow her to see the surveillance video. In the end, she even alarmed the manager of the Grand Dynasty Hotel.
"Even if you are in a hurry, we can't show it to you. Please go back."
"Listen to me, I..."
However, the man did not listen and tipped a wink at the security guard beside him.
Seeing this, Elizabeth shouted, "Wait a minute!" Then, she hurriedly took out a red booklet from her bag and said, "I... am James's wife!"
Hearing this, the man was stunned, so were the security guards. It was said that James didn't get married, but this woman said that she was James's wife with the marriage certificate?
"James? Do you mean, Mr. Lu?"
"Yes!" Elizabeth kept nodding. Looking at those people's expressions, she was glad that she had gone home to get the marriage certificate, "The president of Lu Enterprises."
After that, she quickly opened the marriage certificate and handed it to the man, "You see. I've really got married to him. What's more, your boss, Benjamin, is a very good friend of... my husband. You should know this, right? So, can you let me check the surveillance video?"
The man thought for a moment and had to say, "Well... Mrs. Lu? I don't have the right to do so either. I have to consult the supervisor.
What do you think?"
"Okay!"
After a while, the man came back with his mobile phone and said to Elizabeth respectfully and apologetically, "Mrs. Lu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Elizabeth shook her head and asked urgently, "How is it? Can I see it now?"
"Well... Mrs. Lu, you don't have to see it."
"What?" Elizabeth suddenly got disappointed, "I am really..."
The man smiled and then signaled all the staff to go out. When only he and Elizabeth were left in the room, he said, "Here's the thing, Mrs. Lu. Today's surveillance video has been deleted, so..."
When Elizabeth heard this, she felt a little surprised, "Deleted?"
"Right."
Getting the answer, Elizabeth got delighted and suddenly felt relieved, "Why didn't you say it just now?" She was anxious and panicked just now.
"Because we didn't know that you had such a relationship with Mr. Lu. We can't tell everyone about this. After all, it's a secret of the company. I hope you can understand, Mrs. Lu."
