I look at all the pictures that has been thrown on Eric's desk as we are in Eric's office, sitting with a headache because of the clues that points finger at every single person I lay my eyes on.

"I don't think he is the one behind it" I calmly tell Eric who sighs not knowing what to answer "I don't know Ziyan, the footage only shows his face and since your doubting Max, let me tell you at the time the person disappeared the footage, Max was sent by you to a sight which was atleast 50 miles away from here, so I don't think Max is behind it" he clears me out and I nod in understanding.

"So your telling me its Zach who is behind this?" I hesitantly let out the guys name who I have zero percent doubt on, he nods shrugging as if it was not a big deal.

"I don't think so Eric, if he is the one then why would he be roaming outside the cabin instead of being in" I sigh not believing him but he nods before speaking "I am not sure about that, maybe he has send someone else in so he doesn't get caught" he does not stop blaming and I am actually starting to think the same now.

We've found a footage from my floor a little bit far from my cabin since the other cameras did not have the footage of an hour in which the person stole the card attached into the camera very cleverly.

And the only footage we got was from the other part of the hall where Zach was phasing out while using his phone.

And it was right after 10 minutes I left the building because of grandma who did not stop ringing my phone, since she didn't want me to miss her handmade delicious food.

"The only thing we can do now is ask Zach" I suggest but he shakes his head "No! If you ask him without any evidence he will for sure deny and will get alert so do not do that" he stops me from doing something which actually can clear everything out.

But yeah I can't go against a detective, Can I?

Well I have a question, who made him a detective on the first place, he does nothing but elaborates the same stupid shit I already know. P

Checking my phone I see no calls from Ziah, I left her 4 hours ago and she did not even call me once that's strange.

"I'll be taking my leave now, if you get any information contact me first and if I am not available call Sufiyan" I stand up as I speak, straightening my coat and buttoning up the only button, I leave his room.

Ignoring his goodbye I leave the place and soon I am sitting with my driver who is taking me towards ny office.

Sighing deeply I look out of my window hoping that everything settles down soon and that I live happily with Ziah without any fear.

After a 10 minutes ride, the car comes to an halt and I stare at my building feeling tired, I just want to go home but I need to pick Ziah up who I am sure is tired as well, probably is upset too because of me disappearing for more than 4 hours.
