A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 105

Hearing Sophie's scream,

all of them hurried over to where she was. 

There was a pile of broken glass pieces lying on the ground.

Sophie was so angry that her face twisted with rage. She forgot to be ladylike and shouted in a loud roar, "Who did this?"

However, Alina clenched her fists. What was left to be said? 

Sophie had obviously planned to slander her. First, she deliberately invited Alina for tea and took her fingerprints. After that, she claimed that the necklace she kept in another cup had disappeared.  

Now, the other teacup was smashed into pieces. Sophie would definitely insist that the broken cup was the teacup she had drank from.

Lincoln looked coldly at the glass fragments on the ground and said, "This matter ends here! Lina, follow me to the study." 

"Yes!" Alina was grateful for Lincoln's intervention and responded immediately.  

However, Sophie stood in the way. "Father, Miss Alina has not proved that she is innocent."

Lincoln rebutted discontentedly, "Then, can you show us Lina's teacup?" 

Sophie had a displeased expression on her face. "The cup must have been knocked over by a servant. Alina, this must be your doing, right? You're such a crafty woman. You've only been in the Scott Family for less than a week, but you've colluded with the servants to do your bidding." 

"Sophie!" Lincoln warned her in a stern voice.

Sophie lowered her head and said unwillingly, "I want to search her body!"

Lincoln's face was livid. "Sophie, you've gone too far!"

What's wrong with Sophie today? She seemed to have been possessed.

When Alina saw Lincoln trying to protect her, she didn't want to make things difficult for him. "Grandfather, I don't mind being searched to prove my innocence. The truth shall prevail." 

Since the teacup was broken, there was no way for her to prove that she was innocent. Now that Sophie wanted to search her, it was a chance for Alina to prove her innocence. 

Mr. Scott sighed. "If you insist!" 

Silvia poked her head out and raised her hand. "Grandfather, let me handle this!"

Mr. Scott nodded.

It was appropriate for Silvia to search Lina since they were closer in age. 

As soon as she received her grandfather's approval, Silvia glared at Alina and approached her. She patted down Alina's shoulders and ordered arrogantly, "Raise your hands!"

Since it was a body search to prove her innocence, Alina no longer minded Silvia's haughty attitude. She raised her arms cooperatively.

Silvia patted down her shoulders, torso, and waist. After that, she asked, "Do you have an inner pocket in your jacket?"

"No!" Alina said as she put down her arms and tried to undo the zipper on her jacket to show Silvia. 

Silvia reached into the pockets in Alina's jacket and suddenly pulled out a necklace.

She shouted in surprise, "Mom, is this your necklace?"

As soon as Sophie saw it, she reached out and took the necklace. "Yes, this is the one!" 

Alina was so shocked that she was struck dumb. How could there be a necklace in her pocket? She really didn't know what was going on. When was the necklace placed in her pocket anyway? 

Mr. Scott's face darkened.

Alina turned to him immediately and said through gritted teeth, "Grandfather, I don't know what's going on!"

She was not afraid of being misunderstood, scolded, or even beaten. Alina just didn't want to hurt Lincoln. 

"Is Grandfather sad? Does he also think that I stole the necklace?" Alina thought sadly.

Sophie had already started cursing. "Alright, Alina, you shameless wench! Not only did you seduce my son, but now you're stealing things from my home. Your shallow thinking proves that you are indeed from the slums.

"Furthermore, I even gave you a chance to explain the rumours circulating on the Internet! How stupid could I be? There is no smoke without fire. If you hadn't really hooked up with Ken, how could the gossip have spread so fast on the Internet?"

"A shameless wench like you could even wish to enter the Scott Family. You must be dreaming!

"Father, I won't let this matter slide. I'm going to drive Alina out of the Scott Family right now, and make sure she never steps foot into our door again!" Sophie turned to the butler and shouted, "Mr. Kyree, why are you still standing there?"

Alina's eyes were full of tears. Her lips twitched, but she didn't know what to say to prove her innocence. 

Lincoln's steely eyes swept across Sophie. The coldness in his eyes made Sophie shiver in fear. She knew that as of this moment, Lincoln was about to go mad from anger.

The last time she saw Lincoln so livid was eight years ago. 

At that time, Lincoln was enraged because George's family was against his decision to elect Wilson as the president of the Scott Group.

Mr. Kyree didn't move. He looked to Lincoln for his instructions. 

Lincoln redirected his sharp gaze and said calmly, "Sophie, you should think rationally about this. Would a person who rejected the shares of Scott Group steal your necklace?" 

Sophie felt that this was her opportunity to drive Alina away, so she deliberately ignored Lincoln's suppressed anger. "Father, she was just putting on a front to make you happy. She didn't reject your shares because you will be transferring them to her when she marries Wilson!"

"Shut up! Lina, follow me to the study!" After Lincoln finished speaking, he left the room furiously. 

Alina followed behind him, feeling uneasy.
