Until today.
This recording was the most useful thing I had gotten after monitoring her phone for so long
It wasn’t the only thing that, of course. I also had screenshots of her chat history with Irvin and with me. However, I decided to show only the recording since it was sufficient. It was conclusive rough to mall Film for violating our agreement.

“What I did because of the video was wrong, Emi.” Irvin sounded regretful. “Thad misjudged you without ev verify its authenticity. For that, I am truly at fault. And I will spend the rest of my life making up for it. So-”
“I already gave you a chance, but you’ve wasted it.” I coldly cut him off
He let out a bitter laugh. “Did you really? Is this your so–called chance? You wouldn’t have acted the way you did if you were truly giving me a chance. You spied on me and pressured Lianne. You practically backed me into a comer.”
