Chapter 599 Wanting to Return
Fraser nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the video was modified very well, as well as Mr. Murphy's voice was produced exactly the same, otherwise it couldn't be concealed." "Calvin is awesome." Violet smiled at Calvin and Arya.
Calvin was happy to hear that.
Although he is mature at heart, he is ultimately a child and feels happy and proud to be praised by his parents.
"But what do we do next?" Fraser's face went back to serious, "There is not news about Mr. Murphy yet."
Violet's heart ached and her eyes dimmed for a moment, "Keep looking, I don't believe it he can leave this earth."
She looked to Calvin, "Can you find out their whereabouts based on the post IvJimmyd Ivy made ?"
"Mommy, I checked and found the IP address of the posting, it was at a domestic internet cafe, not Ivan's personal computer, so it's useless." Calvin shook his little head.
Violet sighed, "Find Stanley first, I want to go back to look for him too."
"Go back?" Linda and Aimee were stunned when they heard her say that.
Violet nodded, "Yes, I'm worried about him, and I want to go find him myself."
"But what about the competition?" Linda asked.
Violet lowered her head, "I want to withdraw from the competition."
The competition was indeed important, but in her mind, it was less important than Stanley.
She could give up on the competition, but she couldn't give up on Stanley.
"No!" Linda put down the thermos and went up to grab Violet's hand, "Violet, I know why you're doing this, but the finals are coming up, don't you think it's selfish to do this? You're not competing alone, what should Aimee do if you leave? You are partners, if you leave, Aimee won't be able to continue the competition."
Hearing these words, Violet's pupils contracted and she looked at Aimee, her face filled with guilt.
Yeah, she's not alone in the competition, there's Aimee.
With her gone, what about Aimee?
"Aimee, I'm sorry, I......"
"It is okay." Aimee smiled and stepped forward, "I understand, you can go back if you want."
"Aimee?" Linda looked at her incredulously, "Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I know, I understand Violet. Mr. Murphy's whereabouts is unknown now, even if Violet stays for the competition, she won't be able to draw a good design because her heart is no longer in the competition." Aimee said with downcast eyes.
Linda's mouth open before she made a sound, "What about you? What will you do?"
"I'm okay, if we now withdraw, we're still third place, and we don't have much confidence in ourselves to get the championship, because everyone's strength is about the same. The third place is good enough, the championship is better, but it's not really useful, besides, there will be the next competition." Aimee said with a smile.
However, her smile made Violet's heart feel even more uncomfortable and sorry for her.
Violet covered her face and let out a small sob, "I'm sorry Aimee, I'm really sorry."
"It is okay." Aimee stepped forward, hugged her and gently patted her back, "In fact, I have long guessed that you would do this, so I have long told my master, and she agreed. Although the competition is indeed important, but compared to a human life, it is nothing. As a designer, indeed we should chase the champion, but if for the sake of the champion, we give up feelings and conscience, we are not qualified designers, and we can't design clothes that resonate with people."
Speaking of this, Aimee wiped Violet's tears and added, "So Violet, go back and find Mr. Murphy, and make sure you find him so that you won't fail me, and of course, after you find Mr. Murphy, you have to make it up to me and make it up to Linda, or I won't let you go."
Linda sighed and also stepped forward with a smile, "What else can I say? But Violet, I'm on Aimee's side this time, she's right, we gave up the competition for you, you can't let us down, or we'll really be angry at you."
Violet looked at her two best friends' concern and support for her, and while she felt guilty, she was grateful.
She took a deep breath, forced a smile, and nodded heavily, "Don't worry, I won't let you guys down, I will find Stanley, and I will make it up to you guys, I won't let your efforts go to waste!" "That's right, I'll go to the organizer later to type the withdrawal request." Aimee said.
Violet nodded, "I'll call the organizer later as well, I can't let the organizer directly announce the real reason why we withdrew from the competition, otherwise the matter of Stanley's disappearance will continue to be found out."
"Just say that you fell and the baby was born prematurely and you're now recuperating in the hospital, so you can't continue the competition." Linda suggested.
Violet nodded her head, "That's what I thought."
Saying that, she looked at Fraser again, "Fraser, I can't not tell my teacher about my withdrawal from the competition, please help me tell him."
Whether her teacher would blame her or not, she had to go back to her country.
Giving up the competition, she might regret it for a while, but not going to Stanley, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Murphy, I know what to do." Fraser said, and went out to do as he was told.
After that, Aimee also went out, leaving Linda alone in the ward with Violet.
In the country, IvJimmyd Ivy looked at the events that had calmed down on the internet, and both their faces looked bad.
"Unexpectedly, those people from the Murphy Group actually guessed what we were going to do and came up with the video to prove that Stanley didn't go missing. Did Stanley really not go missing but go abroad?" Ivy asked with a tight frown.
Stanley sneered, "Do you think it's possible? With Stanley's character, after we set him up, even if he came back, he wouldn't go abroad, but would be looking for us to take revenge in J City, so whether this video is real or not, it is yet to be proven."
"The video is fake?" Ivy stared him in disbelief, "How is this possible, it's clearly Stanley in this video."
"It's true that it's Stanley in there, but these words are not necessarily what Stanley said, or what Stanley in the video is not what we're hearing now." Ivan narrowed his eyes.
Ivy was surprised, "You mean that someone replaced the audio and what we heard was not at all what Stanley said? Someone faked Stanley's voice in order to try to hide from everyone that the truth about Stanley's disappearance?"
"That's right." Ivan nodded, "The hacker who made this video is highly skilled, way above my men. I really don't know where Stanley recruited this talent."
"This man is dangerous and is a huge problem for us." Ivy said solemnly.
It's an information society now, and hackers are the gods of that society.
In case Stanley got tired of catching them and had hacked the satellite to find them, they would never be able to get away.
Ivan had obviously thought of this as well, his glasses reflecting a dangerous light, "Don't worry, I know what to do, that hacker must be found and gotten rid of first." On the other side, in the town hospital.
Sophie had seen the online news and that video, and she was shocked for a long time before she could barely come back to her senses.
The man in the video is exactly the same as the man lying in the hospital bed.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
