“Miss Song, I can assure you there isn’t a single fabricated detail in any of this.”

He played the video and handed the screen to her.
She clearly saw the scene of the three people standing opposite one another.
In the footage, Joseph was knocked to the ground by Kenneth with a single punch.
His disheveled state was captured perfectly, and she saw every bit of it.

He was entirely focused on winning Judy back.

With Judy involved, Joseph might cooperate with her.
After all, he was desperate to win Judy back.
With that thought, her plan began to take shape.
She handed the investigator the remaining payment.
“No matter who asks, don’t tell anyone I came to you.”
He patted his chest confidently.
“Don’t worry, Miss Song. I know how to handle myself.”
He added, “In our line of work, we still hold on to a little professional ethics and discipline.”
That reassurance finally eased her mind.
