As Mina spoke, she only made eye contact with Mills, who held her hand the entire time. The first names she was using in the story meant nothing, and they could tell she was not giving them the complete information on purpose. Not wanting to push her too much, Ian asked Mills to take Mina back to her room, but Mina had one last thing to say before she left.
"Please President Lee, don't resurface the issue. I am telling you this in confidence, because I don't want to see Lisa get in trouble, but I also do not believe that Ren had anything to do with what happened that night."
"I agree, if he wanted you for himself, he would have never given you something that could have potentially worked against him. I won't pursue the matter," 'for now' Ian thought. "but the problem is that Lisa is still the prime suspect."
"What if I talk to your cousin on Lisa's behalf?" Mina was shut down in a way that made her feel like President Lee was belittling her.
