"Did either you or your colleagues take that picture, Bloom?"

"I sweauh on the Bloomington family name. My colleagues and I didn't betray youh trust. Neitheuh did I observe the guilty part who snapped the shot Miz Culpeppuh."

"Well the post didn't magically appear, and neither would my employees betray me. They've been vetted in depth and have proven to be a most loyal bunch."

"Are you absolutely sure about that?" I furrowed my brows as I leaned forward.

"I'd stake my life on it. Why?"

"Not to place blame, but one of youh hotel employees, that woke me. The room attendant assigned to my room, recognized me and is apparently a big fan."

"Describe them would you?"

"Male, late teens, brown eyes redish brown cropped haiuh, five'eight, slight build, and peach toned. He seemed fairly new to the job."

"I believe I'm familiar with the attendant you speak of. He's a recent, yet also vetted hire to the Noctua family." She commented as she skillfully sketched.

"I don't know if he's necessarily the culprit. At the time in question, a blickuh of light blinded my pupils. I did heauh the click of the camera and nothing else. We would've investigated, howevuh the culprit had vanished once my eyesight returned. I thought Birdie had filed out behind us. Yet when I turned to say something she wasn't even there. Not that I'm implyin' that Birdie is the culprit, I just can't account fouh heuh whereabouts. was gone as well. So I ordered Cuhvuh to text her of the infringement. Yet I'm guessing eithuh he forgot ouh Birdie chose to see to the problem herself."

"I doubt that Birdie was informed as she would've alerted me straight away. Since nothing was said by either party, I have to hold  you corp. responsible." She raised her head and gave me a pointed glance.

"Understood, you can add findin' the attendant to ouh contract." I offered as it's imperative we maintain this job.

"Something like this," Eira turned around her tablet and offered it to me.

"Yes, it's uncanny."

I was amazed at how well she could sketch. Her drawing matched the mystery attendee to a T.

"Relax the cacks! Here's my handle," I clicked my phone on and tapped the Instagram icon.

I tapped on my profile circle and switched our agency's account and handed over my phone.

"You're, "pri_vate_Bloomington_fam."

"Yes, so is my brothuh! As we set the buisness account fouh ouh fatheuh, naturally we share the login security. Also as you can see, no incriminating pictures of us are in the feed. If you hand me back my phone, I can show you my photo icon and my trash folder. If that is unsatisfactory I'll call my brothuh in and he'll show his phone. Howeveuh you won't find centrifuge, yet if that is insufficient proof, he'll hack ouh phones. Further provin' we're not liable for the leakage of said picture."
