After entering the surveillance room, the manager pointed at a small blacked–out section on the screen with evident frustration.
He said, “Miss Brown, it’s not that I don’t want to show you. It just so happens that the surveillance camera outside that private room is broken, and we haven’t had time to repair
it.”
Even so, Eleanor saw his arrogance and casualness in the reflection on the screen.
It was obvious that he already knew that the surveillance camera was broken, but he did not explain just now. He seemed to be stalling for time.
Eleanor thought for a moment and leaned over to swipe the mouse. “It’s okay. I’ll just look at the entrance.”
The manager immediately pressed down on the mouse and explained, “Miss Brown, I understand your urgency in finding someone, but the people who come to our restaurant are either wealthy or of high status. Our restaurant has assured them that their comings and goings will not be disclosed to others. “Aren’t you making things difficult for me? Didn’t the waiter say they went somewhere to have fun. They’ll definitely be back tomorrow morning.”
that Logan and Lily had already left? Perhaps
With that, he stuffed the mouse into his pocket.
Eleanor knew that she could not beat him. She suppressed her anger and asked politely, “In that case, let me ask you one last question.”
“Go ahead.”
“When did Mrs. Taylor leave?”
“Around nine.”
“Are
you sure?” Eleanor stared straight at him.
He corrected himself. “I remember wrongly. It must have been after ten.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, I’m sure.” The manager nodded.
Eleanor did not ask any more questions and left the surveillance room with Jack.
Jack said worriedly, “If they leave after ten o’clock, where will Logan and Lily go?”

Eleanor looked up at the signboard and said firely, “They’re still in the restaurant!”

The manager did not allow her to check the security cameras because he was afraid that she would find out that Lily and Logan had not left the restaurant at all.
In addition, he had been stalling for time and kept saying that they would go back tomorrow morning.
This meant that he knew their current situation very well.
Then they could only be in the restaurant!
Eleanor followed the sign and walked toward the private room.
Jack supported her and glanced around. “Miss Brown, what if the manager doesn’t cooperate?”
The next second, Eleanor stopped outside the private room. There was a hint of determination on her face.
“Today, he doesn’t have a choice whether he cooperates or not,” she said.
With that, she walked to the restaurant’s evacuation alarm and slammed it down.
Suddenly, the restaurant bell rang loudly, and everyone ran out.
Eleanor and Jack looked inside.
However, after searching all the way to the innermost private room, they found no trace of anything, nor did they see any familiar faces.
“Miss Brown, we still can’t find them,” Jack said.
Eleanor’s palms were wet with sweat, and her body felt weak.
Could it be that even with my rebirth, I still can’t change Lily and Logan’s accident?
As she burned with anxiety, a waiter burst through a door.
Eleanor reached out and pulled her back. She pointed at the door and asked, “What’s inside?”
“It’s connected to the kitchen where our waiters can serve the dishes.”
Eleanor thought of something and rushed in without caring about the pain in her feet.
However, she was still disappointed. The kitchen was clearly visible at a glance, and there was no place to hide.

It was not until there came sobbing sounds from behind an unremarkable door in the corner.
Eleanor quickly walked forward and realized that there were two words pasted on the door. It was a trash room.
Trash room!
Trash room!
In a fit of anger, Eleanor tried to open the door but failed.
It took Jack two kicks to break the lock and open the door.
Immediately, a foul smell rushed out.
The entire restaurant’s kitchen waste was inside,
Logan fell on the rotten food that had been on the table for a few nights.
Lily was lying next to Logan with her hands and feet tied up. Her entire body was drenched, in the stench of the kitchen waste.
There was a bread stuffed into her mouth.
She was usually clean and beautiful. This was the first time she was in such a sorry state. Her face was dirty, and her eyes were filled with tears and blood vessels from the fright.
As soon as she saw Eleanor, she whimpered and looked at Logan on the ground. She had. been using her body to push Logan.
She was afraid that something would happen to him.
Eleanor gritted her teeth. “Mom, I’m here to save you!”
“Stop! How dare you!” The manager appeared with four strong security guards.
He glared at Eleanor and bared his teeth. “Miss Brown, what do you think this place is? Somewhere you can come and go as you please? You’ve caused chaos here, and now you think you can just leave? How about you stay and keep them company as an apology to our distinguished guest?”
Distinguished guest? Mrs. Taylor! Zoey’s mother! Eleanor thought.
Eleanor blocked the door and reminded the manager, “Do you know who they are?”
