Chapter 143 Another Recording
Milly looked at the two suitcases of jewelry and quickly realized who had given them to her. It had to be Jordan.
Before she came, Jordan had servants load several suitcases into the helicopter. She had thought they contained clothes or other personal items, so she hadn’t bothered to open them.
If she had known they were full of valuables, she would have hidden them in a cellar!
Stephanie stared at the two large suitcases of jewelry, trembling with anger. She bit her lip hard to stop herself from stomping her feet in frustration.

The two officers, having witnessed the whole scene, were skeptical. The girl in front of them exuded nobility and didn’t seem like a thief. But with a witness pointing her out, they had to follow protocol to verify the claim.
Milly raised an eyebrow and stared at her, “Really?”
