Chapter 355 The Price of Blindness

The caller spoke calmly, “I wouldn’t have dared to disturb you, Mr. Owen, without something real. Ever wonder why I waited this long after filming the video to reach out?”
A chill ran down Owen’s spine. He couldn’t guess what the man was getting at.
The voice on the other end chuckled darkly. “Finished reading the email yet, Mr. Owen?”
His heart pounded. He exited the video, and sure enough, there was more content below.
He slowly scrolled down, eyes widening bit by bit.
The man didn’t wait for him to finish. “I’ll give you one day to think it over. Ten million. Transfer it to me, and I’ll hand over all the evidence.” Then he hung up.
Owen sat frozen in front of the computer, unable to move.
The email was still open–an entire investigative report compiled by the paparazzi on Elsie.
Not only had they uncovered inconsistencies in Elsie and Yunice’s personal information, but they’d also captured a crystal- clear video of Elsie getting cozy with a patient at the hospital.
Wait–that patient was Morgan.
The same Morgan the Saunders family had once tried to match with Yunice.
Back then, Morgan had dismissed Yunice as mentally unstable and accused the Saunders of looking down on him. He’d even said he’d get his hands on Elsie just for fun.
Owen never imagined that, without his knowledge, the two had actually gotten involved.
Any one of the clips in that video would be enough to ruin Elsie if it got out.
His throat tightened. Panic set in as he quickly dialed Elsie’s number. She needed to come back immediately.
But the call didn’t go through.
He tried again. This time, not only did she reject the call, she then shut her phone off.
At the hotel, Paul powered off Elsie’s phone and tossed it aside.
Then he turned around and looked at her sleeping on the bed.
After dragging her away from Morgan, Elsie had been trying hard to win him back–playing up her feelings, pretending she still cared.
So Paul brought her to a hotel. When she brushed up against him with obvious intent, he gave her a drink laced with something.
She passed out not long after.
Paul had stripped her bare and checked her himself.
Cha’d al–and–lane with Mawan and she will had the name to throw half no him like nothing hannanad
