Lucian took it with a neutral look.
Cory did not intend to hide anything from Lucian. What he had given to Lucian was the camera he had used when he was working on Aubree's case. Not only was there the evidence in it, but there were also the photos Aubree had asked him to take of Roxanne.
After handing the camera to Lucian, Cory began waiting fearfully.
Lucian went through the photos.
The first photo was the photo Cory had deliberately selected for him-the photo where Aubree was putting the bacteria into the children's drink.
The background of the photo was the field where Roxanne had brought the children.
Even though there were only a few photos, Lucian could see the ruthlessness and caution in Aubree's eyes.
Lucian narrowed his eyes. He guessed that Aubree had to have done more things than what these photos showed.
He went through the other photos.
Most of the photos were photos of Roxanne with Jack, as well as photos of him and Roxanne.
Even though Roxanne had accepted him, and even though the two of them were close, he still could not help but feel irritated at the sight of her photos with Jack.
Cory had taken the photos deliberately from an angle that would make Roxanne look as though she was being intimate with Jack.
The tension built up in the office.
Sensing the change in Lucian's mood, Cory craned his neck to look at the photos before explaining, "Mr. Farwell, please don't misunderstand the situation. I was only making it seem as if they were intimate. Ms. Jarvis has always been keeping a safe distance from him."
Cory was filled with regret as he said that, and his explanation earned a glare from Lucian.
Naturally, he realized that, but it still did not stop him from feeling jealous when he saw the photos.
What was I doing while Roxanne was spending her time with Jack? I was giving her the cold shoulder and mulling over if I should make Aubree Essie's stepmother.
Fury surged through him when he thought about that.
Suddenly, he saw a few familiar photos.
Lucian froze and lifted his head to look at Cory. "Did you send these photos to Aubree?"
Cory did not know what happened, but he nodded sheepishly. "I sent most of the photos here to Ms. Pearson."
The anger twisted even more inside Lucian.
The photos were the ones that Sonya had used to kick up a fuss.
Back then, Lucian had asked her who sent her the photos, but Sonya had told him they were from an unfamiliar number.
Now, it was clear to him that Aubree's scheming ways went further than what he could see.
"Mr. Farwell..." Cory was frightened by Lucian's cold fury. "Mr. Farwell, I was only doing my job! I don't know anything about what happened other than this! Aubree's a lunatic! She even asked me to kill Ms. Jarvis for her, but why would I do that? But she threatened to tell you that everything was my doing if I didn't do as she said. I had no choice but to flee from her..."
Lucian snapped, "What did you just say?"
That b*tch even wanted to kill Roxanne?
A shudder ran down Cory's spine. "Aubree went mad on the night Ms. Jarvis was hospitalized..."
He could not finish the sentence from the pure wrath Lucian was exuding.
The room plunged into a deathly silence.
Right as Cory was about to say something else, Lucian abruptly lifted his hand.
In the next second, the camera he had been holding shot past Cory's face and slammed onto the ground. The screen cracked.
Cory's knees went weak, and he nearly slid off his chair to kneel before Lucian.
