Thorns Grow After Betrayal (Celeste and Chester) novel Chapter 357

Bagehot said, displeased, “Then what evidence can you provide to prove it?”

Flossie and Yolande shared an email account. The original file Celestine had sent now showed a modification history, so Flossie couldn't prove her innocence the way Celestine had.

Celestine turned to Yolande. “You said Flossie last sent you the email at what time?”

“Around five-thirty,” Yolande said without a trace of guilt.

She had long been annoyed by Flossie, that little suck-up. This was her chance to finally get her away from Celestine.

With Flossie gone, her own opportunities would multiply.

“Use your computer. Open the document.”

Celestine’s gaze fell on the laptop on her desk.

At this, Yolande glanced hesitantly at Bagehot.

Bagehot gave her a reassuring look, then turned to dissuade Celestine. “Celly, this matter is already settled. It has nothing to do with you. They made a mistake. You don’t need to—”

“Mr. Kelsey,” Celestine interrupted him sharply. “Since you insist on evidence, let’s not jump to conclusions. Let’s see what the facts really are.”

Bagehot’s expression darkened.

But if he continued to interfere, it would look like he was trying to protect someone.

Everything incriminating had been cleaned up. She wouldn't find anything.

Yolande had already opened her computer.

Celestine found the last version of the document and pulled up its edit history.

Seeing the modification times, her expression was one of knowing confirmation.

“The document was edited intensively between 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM. The value for that fabric shows its last modification was a little after 6:00 PM. You just said Flossie gave you the file for review at five-thirty?”

Yolande was dumbstruck.
