Chapter 248
Suddenly, the whole venue went dead silent.
Everyone was staring in shock at the two women in the middle of the room.
These two women were familiar faces to everyone.
One was a top-tier actress, the object of everyone’s attention with an immense reputation.
The other, although a newcomer in the entertainment industry, was already immensely popular. She
was also the lady of the Tim Group.
There were plenty of gossips surrounding these two women.
They all involved one man – Jared, the CEO of the Tim Group.
There were rumors that Jared was the secret boyfriend of Mamie, who even proposed to him. But it
was later revealed that Jared was already married, and his wife was none other than Ms. Pritchard who
was currently in the room
The relationship between these two women was notonously bad. If the Heart of the Kingdom was
stolen, there was no way they could have done it together.
But if it was said that one of them did it, that was even harder to believe
Mamie, an international star known for hes arrogance, wouldn’t stoop to theft
And Ms. Pritchard, hailing from a prominent family and the lady of the Tim Group with immense wealth,
had no reason to risk her reputation for a necklace.
When Mamie and Agnes heard the security manager utter their names, they were both stunned.
Agnes had a bad feeling about this
Mamie, upon hearing her name, stormed out of the crowd, pointing at the manager and said, “How
dare you slander me, bring out whoever is in charge here!”
Those present knew about Mamie’s temper
The MC hastily apologized, “Ms. Mamie, you are our special guest, we’re not suspecting you. But the
necklace is missing, and we need to investigate. Could you tell us why you were on the second floor
when it’s clearly marked as off-limits?”
Mamie turned around, sneered,” was following Ms. Pritchard up
In an instant, Mamie’s words drew all eyes to Agnes.
Agnes felt her heart sink.
Her feeling of unease intensified.
The MC also approached, “Ms. Pritchard, why were you on the second floor?”
Agnes answered truthfully, “I was tired and was looking for a rest room”
Agnes hadn’t noticed the “no entry” sign, which made her feel even more puzzled.
The MC was at a loss of what to do.
After all, these were two women not to be trifled with.
The manager said, “We’re sorry, but to clear your names, please cooperate with us for a check”
It was, essentially, a body search.
Mamie was the first to lose her temper, “Who gave you this power? I don’t want to talk to you, don’t
touch me, or I’ll sue this auction house into bankruptcy.”
Mamie made it difficult for everyone, while the MC was constantly explaining and persuading.
The crowd began to whisper. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Why is she so agitated? Did she steal it?”
“Don’t you know Mamie’s temper? As the most popular star in the industry, being searched in public
would be a huge humiliation even if she didn’t take anything”
Everyone seemed to be watching a fascinating drama.
Finally, Mamie lost her temper, opened her bag, and dumped everything out, “Look, open your eyes
and see, is there any ruby in there?”
