Chapter 469 The Missing Earrings
Ronian looked at Ormand's back and frowned. Ronian felt that something was strange and did not follow him immediately.
Ormand took a few steps before turning back. "This is an order from the higher-ups. You want to disobey the order?"
"No."
There was no time for Ormand to think too much, so he could only quickly catch up with Ormand and go to Ormand's office for a small meeting.
It was 7:00 in the evening.
Viola and Todd led the soldiers of the fourth team and surrounded the Felton's house.
A group of big and tall soldiers surrounded the inner wall of the villa, and it felt a bit scary.
When Dewey came out and saw this, he was shocked.
"What... What is going on?"
Viola was the first to step forward to explain, "Dewey, my crystal earrings disappeared at the party in the afternoon. I checked all the socialites who attended, and Jennifer was the only one left."
With a serious face, Todd showed his certificate to Dewey and said, "Please cooperate with the National Bureau of Investigation."
Dewey was stunned.
Were they suspecting that Jennifer had stolen the crystal earrings?
"It is impossible. Mrs. Hobson, Ms. Felton grew up with you. You know her best. As the Felton family's young lady, she's taken great care of by her family. She doesn't lack anything at all. It is impossible for her to steal your things!"
Viola's attitude was firm. "Perhaps it was before, but Jennifer has a strong desire for revenge. You know this. At today's party, I quarreled with her. I can't rule out the possibility of her maliciously stealing the crystal earrings and taking revenge on me."
Dewey still couldn't believe it. "How could it be... Ms. Felton has been brought up very strictly since she was a kid. She can't do such a thing!"
Looking at his watch, Todd didn't want to waste time with Dewey. "Whether Jennifer is innocent or not, we'll find out soon. Please get out of the way."
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers behind him quickly rushed into the villa.
Because they had the warrant to search the house, the bodyguards of the Felton family did not dare to stop them. In addition, Ronian was not at home, so Dewey did not know what to do.
A bodyguard secretly called Ronian.
When the bodyguard called him, Ronian was in Ormand's office, listening to the lecture.
Ormand's face quickly turned cold. "Have you learned all your rules? Don't you know that you have to switch off your phone before coming in or at least turn it on silent?"
"It was my mistake. I'll turn it off now."
Ronian took out his phone from his pocket and glanced at the phone.
It was the bodyguard of the Felton family.
Ronian frowned suspiciously and looked at the time on his phone. Ormand had already lectured him for an hour.
At first, he felt that it was Ormand who deliberately lectured him. Ormand wanted to use Ronian to establish his prestige.
However, now that the bodyguard of the Felton family was calling, it was obvious that something urgent had happened at the house.
Could it be that Ormand was deliberately stalling for time?
There came a knocking sound.
As Ronian stared at the phone screen in deep thought, Ormand tapped his knuckles on the table and silently reminded him.
Ronian came to his senses and quickly muted his phone.
"Mr. Hobson, something seems to have happened to my family. Can you let me go back?" Ormand asked anxiously.
Ormand's expression was cold, and his displeasure filled the air.
He didn't say anything, but his expression showed that he was refusing.
The phone in Ronian's hand was still on. Because the phone was not switched off, the bodyguard called again in a few seconds.
Thinking about the bodyguard's call, Ronian was restless and decided to disobey the order.
"Mr. Hobson, Sherlyn was seriously sick some time ago. I asked someone to take care of her. Something must have happened to her. I have to go back and take a look.
