Chapter 1216 Eyewitness
While waiting for the famous pediatric surgeon from Dartan to arrive, Cooper heard his phone ring again. It was a
call from Bertilla.
He tried to suppress his anger and frustration as he answered the call. “What is it?”
“Mr. Sutton, this has nothing to do with the company,” Bertilla explained before Cooper blew his top. “The people
investigating matters in Baykeep called me earlier.”
Cooper had gotten a few calls from those men as well, but he was too busy to answer, so they could only contact
Bertilla instead.
At that, Cooper's fury diminished slightly. “Did they find anything?” he asked somberly.
“I can't really go into detail about it over the phone,” Bertilla said apologetically. “But I've emailed you the
information.”
Cooper hung up and clicked on the email from Bertilla.

mentioned that he wanted to look into Gerald's case after the man was framed, Phineus made a few special calls.
As a result, the men Cooper rallied to look into Gerald's case, including the police officers in Baykeep, all had easy
access to surveillance cameras in town.
For the past couple of months, those men had turned over every rock in the vicinity of Ninette's residential area
before finally finding an eyewitness.
It was a woman who happened to live in the same building as Ninette. On the night of the incident, the woman was
on a video call with her family and did not notice that Ninette was in the background.
When the men went through the surveillance footage and realized that the woman had been on a video call during
the time of the incident, they reckoned she might have recorded something else. Hence, they tracked her down
and inquired her about it.
Luckily, the woman had a habit of recording her video calls with her family. She retrieved the recording from that
fateful evening, and sure enough, there was some suspicious activity going on in the background.
Those carrying out the investigation for Cooper saw Ninette get out of the car, followed by the driver, who
proceeded to carry an unconscious Gerald out of the backseat before entering the building with Ninette.
From the looks of it, Ninette probably paid the driver to have him carry Gerald into her place. However, the driver
unexpectedly got into an accident after leaving the residential area.
Cooper's brows were tightly furrowed by the time he finished reading the email.
Before he could dive much further into his thoughts, he got a call from the foreign surgeon's assistant.
At that sight, Cooper quickly answered the call and was informed that the surgeon had come out into the arrival
hall. He looked up, and when he spotted the two blond, blue-eyed men walking toward him, he clutched his phone
and hurried up to them.
After shaking hands and exchanging a brief round of pleasantries, Cooper ushered the two men into the car and
sped off to the hospital.
The cause of Amanda's headache remained unknown, and Cooper dared not let her have too many painkillers. The
sight of her crying every day from her headache and the fact that her appetite deteriorated greatly made him feel

There were other foreign pediatricians who had come by to examine Amanda as well, but none of them could find
the cause of her headache.
Callum Rosenberg, otherwise known as Dr. Rosenberg, was one of Lilian's contacts.
Lilian had been worried about Amanda after learning of the little girl's strange illness, but she was so busy that she
could not travel to Chanaea. As such, she arranged for a doctor to examine Amanda.
Cooper later found out from Lilian that Callum was an acclaimed pediatric surgeon in Dartan. The surgeries he had
carried out in his twenty-odd years of practice had all been successful too.
As of then, he was Cooper's best hope in treating Amanda.
When Cooper brought Callum and the latter's assistant to the hospital, he found Steven in Amanda's ward, so he
asked curiously, “Why did you come all the way here from Baykeep? Where's Sally?”
Steven replied, “Ms. Loake said she had an errand to run. She only left after I came.”
Cooper was not in the mood to learn about his wife's errands. Seeing that Amanda was asleep, he reckoned Sally
had given her painkillers because she had wailed from her headache. That broke his heart again.
Left with no choice, he brought Callum to see Amanda's attending doctor.
Callum flipped through Amanda's CT scans and assessed the examination results for her other vital organs. When
he was done, he asked Cooper in Ustranasion, “Does her mother have any diseases?”
