Chapter 8 - The Missing Camera Recorded Everything
A security technician recovered the hallway camera from a laundry chute.
Its memory card remained intact.
The video showed Caroline entering Lily’s room.
She carried the pink suitcase.
Twenty minutes later, another person joined her.
Evelyn Shaw.
Victoria’s stepmother.
Victoria stopped breathing.
Evelyn had entered through the catering entrance wearing a staff coat.
On video, Caroline handed her Lily’s passport.
Then Evelyn removed the hallway camera.
But before she did, audio captured their conversation.
Caroline whispered:
“Once Victoria believes Andrew is taking Lily, she’ll run.”
Evelyn answered:
“And when she runs, I get her away from the Blakes.”
Caroline asked:
“What about the child?”
Evelyn’s answer chilled everyone.
“She comes with us.”
Victoria stared at the screen.
This had never been Andrew’s plan.
