Chapter 1962
Isabel scanned the crowd with a frosty gaze before she told Sherry about the stolen pink diamond.
Caprice was suspected to have stolen the pink diamond because they found the diamond in her purse.
Sherry frowned.
Caprice had almost a hundred of those diamonds in her closet, why would she steal someone else's?
Something was not right.
"Daddy, Mommy, I didn't steal it. I don’t know how the diamond ended up in my purse," Caprice snorted and explained.
John and Caprice looked at her gently.
Sherry said, "Caprice, we believe you."
John hugged the girl tight and then looked at the crowd coldly.
Those who called Caprice a thief immediately averted their eyes from John and looked down in guilt.
Sherry scoffed coldly. "You people were loud when you called my daughter a thief. What’s with the silence now?"
Then, hurried footsteps came.
"Mr. and Mrs. Stockton, Mr. and Mrs. Carter, we're sorry that you have to wait so long."
The owner of the estate, Mr. and Mrs. Duwait, came over with flattering smiles.
When they had a clear look at the situation, their smiles froze. "W-What's going on here?"
Sherry explained coldly, "Your staff accused my daughter of stealing the pink diamond and they found it inside her purse."
Mr. and Mrs. Duwait were both stunned. They first had a glance at Caprice crying in John's arms before they switched their attention to the staff.
Mrs. Duwait bellowed, "Why would Ms. Stockton steal? What's going on here?"
