How could she possibly have forgotten something as crucial as the security cameras?
If she hadn’t taken care of it in advance, she wouldn’t dare to pull out that phone with such confidence.
While these thoughts flashed through Anastasia’s mind, her face gave nothing away. She said, utterly unruffled, “Exactly. Don’t you have cameras? We can just check the footage—that’ll prove I’m innocent.”
She unlocked her phone and opened the security camera app, but she wasn’t the least bit surprised to find that during that exact window, Rosewood Manor had suffered a power outage. There was no footage at all.
“A power cut? Right at that moment?” Anastasia almost laughed in disbelief. Did they really think she was that gullible?
Alice, however, feigned innocence. “What, are you going to accuse me of cutting the power on purpose now?”
Anastasia’s stare was icy. “Whether it’s an accusation or not isn’t up to you.”
She glanced at the outage log. Noon, ten minutes—right when both she and Harrison were out of the house.
“Who was working near the circuit breaker at that time?” she asked, summoning all the household staff.
The maids exchanged uneasy glances. After a moment’s hesitation, two of them finally stepped forward. Anastasia recognized them immediately—they were the same ones who’d been gossiping with Alice as she’d walked in, clearly on friendly terms with her.
“You didn’t see anything?” Anastasia asked directly.
It was too convenient—a sudden power cut, no reports of faulty wiring. Someone had to have deliberately flipped the main switch. Whether it was Alice or someone else, there was no way they could have done it without being noticed.
The two maids glanced furtively at Mary, the housekeeper, before both replied, “We didn’t see anything.”
