Chapter 5 - Someone Used Lily’s Keycard
Daniel’s mansion used electronic access cards for staff and family.
The deleted hallway footage could be recovered.
But the access logs were available immediately.
At 1:37 p.m., Lily’s keycard opened the west-balcony maintenance closet.
Lily stared at the screen.
“I was at the university.”
Grace confirmed Lily returned shortly after two.
Daniel checked vehicle logs.
Lily’s car entered the property at 2:03.
Her keycard had been used twenty-six minutes earlier.
“Who had it?”
Lily touched her purse.
Then remembered.
Two days earlier, she had misplaced the card during a family dinner.
It reappeared the next morning on the entry table.
She assumed she had forgotten it there.
Daniel asked who attended dinner.
Grace.
Evan.
Lily.
Daniel.
And Daniel’s business partner, Michael Voss.
Lily’s expression changed.
“Michael asked me about the balcony.”
Daniel frowned.
“When?”
“Last week.”
He had asked whether the west balcony would be open during Daniel’s
upcoming investor reception.

At the time, the question seemed ordinary.
Now nothing about it did.
