Chapter 649
Charlie shook his head, his face pale, still refusing to admit it.
"It wasn't me! | don't know what you're talking about. Even if that video shows me,
so what? How can you be sure | was doing anything wrong? | cin at 2 a.m. to check if the machines could
still be fixed. | did it for the good of the factory!"
Sarah let out a cold laugh.
"Wow. That's the best you could cup with? You really expectto believe you were being noble at two in
the morning? Don't forget, we've got more than just one camera. You think we only set up one? Every step you
took was recorded —and more than that, someone saw you. We've got video and a witness. You're not getting
out of this."
Charlie's face twisted in disbelief. "No way! There was no one there last night-I checked! You could've bribed
someone just to frme!"
Sarah's expression didn't budge. "If you're that desperate to keep lying, feel free to tell it to the cops. I'm done
listening to your nonsense. Mr. Lambert, call the police. With everything we've got on him, this one's going
straight to jail."
As soon as she said jail, Charlie froze. His tough act collapsed instantly.

"Yeah... yeah, it was me. | snuck in."
"Why?" Sarah asked sharply.
He gave her a bitter, mocking look. "Why? You seriously have to ask? This is all payback, Miss Sanders. You
swapped that drugged drink on me, remember? Then you had those women lying in wait at Molly's house just to
humiliate me. Ever since that night, I've been a laughingstock in this village. So yeah, | wanted to get back at
you. If the machines went down, you'd take the fall too. Two birds, one stone."
Mr. Lambert was totally lost now. "Wait-what drugged drink? What is he even talking about?"
