Chapter 377

“Fine! I won’t say anything in the future. Also, Hayley, where have you been these days?”

“Something came up, so I went overseas for a vacation. Anyway, if Elliot asks you anything next time,
don’t tell him more than is necessary. Also, try your best to pull him away from Anastasia. If not, when
Anastasia becomes Mrs. Presgrave, we’ll both be in trouble.”

“I’m trying! Now, Anastasia is flirting with Elliot every day, seducing him with every tactic she knows. I’m
helpless here, so please come back soon, Hayley! We can fight against her together.”

“I’ll only be returning after three months. Just try to hold her off, and if Elliot visits you again, don’t be an
idiot and start talking about that night. You mustn’t say a word,” Hayley warned.

Erica was beginning to fear the consequences. She hastily said, “Okay, I won’t say a word next time.”

After ending the call with Erica, Hayley lay on the bed with a gleeful look in the depths of her swollen
eyes. Fortunately, she was able to predict Elliot’s next move, and she had already bribed someone at
the Abyss Club to burn down the server room inside the storehouse.

No matter how powerful Elliot may be, he couldn’t possibly recover lost data. After all, those were the
only data that remained.

Moreover, five years was a long time. No one could possibly remember what happened five years ago.

However, Hayley was still on edge. The security guard I bribed should’ve resigned by now!

Meanwhile, Rey left the club and immediately went to a certain security guard’s home. The

rundown house looked especially dim under the streetlight.



Rey wanted to figure out if the security guard truly lived here, so he decided to keep watch outside until
the next morning.

Usually, people of his age would go out in the morning to get groceries and breakfast.

Rey was about to nap for a bit when a scooter suddenly passed by him. The scooter pulled up in front
of him, and when Rey opened his eyes, he saw a familiar face. It was the security guard he was
looking for, Scott Parker.

It was currently 2.00AM, and Scott had obviously drunk some alcohol, for his footsteps were unstable.

Preliminary investigations told Rey that there were no CCTVs in this area. He immediately opened the
car door and walked out, calling to the man, “Hey, Scott Parker.”

“W-Who are you?!”

“I’m Bob from the Abyss Club! The company has sent out some gifts, so come and get yours. It’s in my
car.”

c.

Scott was a greedy man, so when he heard there were gifts to be distributed, he immediately went over
to the car. What gifts will I be getting?

Rey instantly pushed Scott into the car. Then, he grabbed a long, sharp tool before holding it against
the latter’s waist.

“Why did you burn the server room at Abyss Club, Scott? Who ordered you to do that?”

Scott was a little drunk, so he thought that the sharp object against his waist was a knife. He
immediately froze in terror. “Who are you?!”



“Answer the question. Did you burn the server room on purpose?”

Scott felt the knife being pressed closer to his waist, so he told the truth right away. “Please span me! I
didn’t do it because I wanted to. Someone gave me 100,000 to burn it!”

Rey didn’t expect to get an answer from him so quickly. He asked again, “Who bribed you?”

“A woman. She was wearing a mask and sunglasses when she talked to me. I only know she’s a
woman, and quite a young one at that. I’ve used up all the money, so I can’t give you anything even if
you take me to the police station.” Scott thought that Rey had been sent by the Abyss Cl to ask for
compensation.

of the car. I’m not here to give

Rey suddenly let go of him, opened the door, and said, “Get o you trouble.”

With that, he took out a wad of cash from his car. “Tell me, how did that woman find you?”

Seeing that there was money he could get, Scott reached out to take it, but Rey waved the mone out of
the way. “Answer my question before you take the money.”

“I first received a call from a woman. She asked me where the CCTV recordings from the club were
stored, so I told her that we stored the data in the server room. She then asked me if I was willing to do
something, and she would pay me 100,000 for it.”

Scott continued a little guiltily, “Since I needed money, I agreed to it. After everything was done the
woman came to me with the cash. She also took my phone and deleted her number from it.

Rey frowned. Did the woman burn the server room because it had something to do with Anastasia’s
assault incident from five years ago? Or was it someone else who had committed a crime and wanted



to erase the evidence?
