Chapter 4 - The Hidden Recorder
Before the trauma team wheeled Sofia into the emergency surgery bay, a senior nurse handed Alexander a small metallic object that had fallen from the torn hem of Sofia's bridal dress.
It was a sleek, digital audio recorder, its red recording light still blinking softly.
Alexander held the device in his palm, his eyes narrowing as he looked from the recorder to Carmen's horrified face.
"What is that?" Carmen gasped, her voice reaching a high-pitched, frantic register. "That's private property! Give that to me!"
She lunged forward to grab it, but Alexander raised his arm, his iron grip blocking her wrist in mid-air and shoving her back effortlessly.
"My daughter was trained by a soldier, Carmen," Alexander said coldly. "She never goes into an ambush without securing proof."
