Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 125

Amelia nodded and opened the handbag naturally and gracefully.

When she lowered her head and saw what was inside her bag clearly, her face turned pale immediately.

She slammed the handbag shut subconsciously!

"Amelia, what's wrong with you?" Milton, who was being searched, glanced at her and didn't understand why her face suddenly became so pale.

The policeman reached out his hand and quickly held Amelia's handbag, not letting her put it away.

Amelia was so nervous that she said foolishly, "Sir, can we have a private talk..."

The police snapped, "Give me your bag!"

Amelia's hand trembled, and the handbag was taken away by the police. When he opened it, he found that there was a brooch inside.

He held the brooch with one hand, pointed at Amelia with the other hand and said to other policemen, "Stay here and watch her. I'll ask the owner to confirm whether it is her brooch."

Seeing the policemen catching Amelia, Milton was extremely unhappy. He rushed over and wanted to take her away, "Amelia, don't be afraid! I'll take you away!"

A policeman stopped Milton who was so impulsive and said, "Sir, please cooperate with our work!"

After thinking for a few seconds, Amelia quickly understood what had happened.

When she met Maryanne in the toilet, her brooch was still there. When Maryanne came out of the toilet, the police came.

The only possibility was that while she was not paying attention, Maryanne secretly hid the brooch in her bag and then called the police.

Maryanne wanted to frame her.

If she was just an employee of Roxxon Corporation, it wouldn't be a big deal. But she was the eldest daughter of the Ramsay Family and the second daughter- in- law of the Hopper Family. If those guests knew her identities because of this incident, the two families would suffer shame because of her.

Thinking of this, Amelia looked at the Hopper Family on the stage, hoping to know their attitudes toward this matter.

Eve, Patrick, Owen and Nora all looked at her way after hearing the policeman's explanation.

After recognizing Amelia, Eve was flustered. But she returned to normal soon, she looked at Amelia as if she was looking at an insignificant stranger.

Looking at Eve, Amelia smiled. Anyway, no one would feel pity for her even if she cried.

Eve really wanted Amelia to disappear from the world at this time. She didn't want to admit that Amelia was her daughter-in-law in public. She didn't expect that Amelia would steal the brooch and she thought that Amelia did it in order to embarrass the Hopper Family on purpose.

Nora said to Eve, "Mother, according to my understanding of Amelia, she couldn't steal the brooch. There must be some misunderstanding."

Eve retorted coldly, "Nora, that's because you know too little about her. I know her better than you!"

Nora pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but Patrick beckoned her to shut up.

Patrick knew that Eve hated Amelia so much. The more Nora spoke for Amelia, the more Eve hated Amelia.
