Malcolm narrowed his eyes as he watched the video that Christopher showed him.
The video had clearly captured Jude and Hunter's exchange in the background.
Despite putting on a calm endeavor, Malcolm was cursing Hunter under his breath.
He had already ordered Hunter to destroy all evidence that would point to his involvement!
That b*stard must have thought it was enough to destroy all the security footage at the airport.
However, he had forgotten that this was the airport entrance, and on top of that, Merchant City was frequented by tourists during fall, so plenty of people would be milling about, taking photos and videos.
The fact that Christopher could find this video meant that there would be plenty of others.
Malcolm narrowed his eyes and lifted his head to stare at Christopher. "I'm not sure. Maybe this man, M r. Jude, had some business exchange with Hunter."
As he stared at Malcolm, Christopher could not help thinking how shameless this man was.
He had already managed to bring out evidence of his wrongdoing, yet he was still denying the truth!
Just as Christopher was about to say something in return, Luna, who had been standing next to Malcolm all this while, suddenly piped up, "Jude couldn't have had a business exchange with Hunter."
She narrowed her eyes as she watched the video once more. "On the day that Jude arrived in Merchant City, he had come to see me.
"According to the time stamp in the video, he had left the airport after this, and it matched up with the time he had come to see me at Tea Cottage."
With that, she glanced at Malcolm and continued," Everyone knew that Jude had given Christopher a bunch of dried grass to humiliate him. Inside the video, Jude had given something to Hunter as soon as he stepped out of the airport, and after that, he had come to visit me at Tea Cottage, so when did he have the time to see Christopher and give him the fake Clinging Root?"
Christopher could not help curling his lips into a smirk when he heard this. "Ms. Luna has a very sound logic."
