Chapter 6 - Ryan Discovers A Hidden Security Camera In The Nursery

Detective Vance slid a small black tablet across the hospital bedside tray, tapping the screen to play a video file.
The video feed showed the interior of the baby’s nursery, recorded just twenty minutes before the fire started.
“What am I looking at?” Ryan asked, leaning forward to inspect the high-definition footage closely.
“Look behind the bookshelf in the corner of the room,” Detective Vance pointed out with a solemn expression.
A tiny, blinking red light flickered behind the wooden molding, capturing every single movement inside the private nursery.
“Someone installed a covert listening and video transmission device in our baby’s room,” Emily gasped in absolute horror.
“And the data stream wasn't going to a local hard drive; it was routed to an external offshore server,” the detective added.
Ryan felt the blood drain entirely from his face as a sickening realization settled deep into his stomach.
“Diane didn't just snap tonight... she was monitoring us every single second of every single day,” Ryan whispered hoarsely.
