Chapter 75 Pass the Buck

After that, the police officer looked at Maggie and said, “Maggie, are you going to explain? Why was Vanessa’s bracelet found in your bag?”

Once the evidence was discovered, the students inside and outside the door started whispering among

themscives.

“I didn’t expect the bracelet to be in Maggie’s bag. What’s going on?”

“Well, someone must have put it there.”

“But I remember that Maggie is from a good family, and Vanessa’s family is also well–off. Plus, their relationship has always been good, so how could this happen?”

This just goes to show that you never really know someone. Even if Maggie comes from a good family. she was adopted. It’s not the same as being a real heiress.”

“But she can’t have stolen that, right? Is there some misunderstanding here?”

Maggie’s eyes were dark as she looked deeply at Vanessa. Then, she said slowly. “I also don’t know why this thing was in my bag.”

Vanessa, looking hurt, said, “Maggie, I know we had some misunderstandings recently, and you can blame me however you want, but… You can’t do something like this and ruin your own future!”

Maggie chuckled lightly and said nonchalantly, “You seem to care more about my future than my mother.”

With that sentence, the tense atmosphere was broken, and many people burst into laughter.

“You!” Vanessa was furious, a hint of malice in her eyes.

She did not expect Maggie to remain calm and even mock her after being caught red–handed.

Fine, if that’s how it is, then she shouldn’t blame me for not showing any mercy!

I’d like to see how Maggie would handle this

“Blame me for being sentimental. Fine, we’re not close to each other, but taking my things without permission is not right. I may not pursue it, but I at least need an apology.” Vanessa’s eyes were red, but she stood her ground.

She had the look of someone pushed to the brink and was unwilling to show any mercy.

Maggie smirked and said softly, “Apology? Dream on!”

“You!” Vanessa felt that Maggie had changed. She did not know when it started, but Maggie’s increasing arrogance made her feel uneasy and inexplicably fearful.

Unable to argue with Maggie, Vanessa turned to the department leader, teacher, and a few police officers. “Ma’am, I may not pursue this, but I want an explanation.”

The leader frowned and looked at Maggie, clearly finding the situation difficult to handle.

So, this incident was a little hard to believe.

“Maggie, don’t worry, we believe in you. Try to remember if something was off

The teacher, a woman in her forties, had always favored Maggie. Now, she was soothing her in a gentle voice, telling her not to panic.

“Ms. Gelb, what do you mean by this? I know you have always liked Maggic, but now that the truth is out, can’t just turn a blind eye to the truth, can you? If you do this, I don’t think our school deserves to be called the top institution!” Vanessa exclaimed urgently.

Maggie, on the other hand, did not seem to care much about the situation involving herself.

“What do you mean?” Vanessa frowned.

Ignoring her, Maggie turned to the police and said, “Let’s start by checking the fingerprints. The bracelet is made of K gold and diamonds, which will easily leave fingerprints. Moreover, the box is velvet, so it will be easy to leave traces. 

Vanessa remained calm. She had already wiped off any fingerprints on the items before doing this. Although there was no evidence to prove that Maggie stole them, there was also no evidence to prove that she did not.

However, as long as she could tarnish Maggie’s reputation and as long as she could make people doubt Maggie’s integrity, then the opportunity to study abroad might fall into her hands.

Otherwise, with the favoritism shown by the leaders and teachers toward Maggie, the chance to study abroad in Yatria would only go to Maggie.

How could she let this happen? 

In the next moment, Maggie said, “Please also send my bag for fingerprint analysis.”
