Chapter 20 A Flawless Plan
“Really?” Melissa asked. It was clear that Adela had deliberately set a trap to accuse her of stealing things. Melissa smirked inwardly. How many tricks Adela would play? She thought and raked Claire disdainfully.
“What is going on?” Archer knitted his brows. In fact, he did not believe that Murray’s fiancée would steal things, but his granddaughter confirmed it with certainty. There were even witnesses revealing Melissa’s theft. In consequence, Archer had to believe it.
“I guess it is so… When Adela showed us her diamond ring, Melissa happen to pass by. Melissa seemed to like this diamond ring very much and looked at it for a long time.” Julie took a step forward and explained seriously.
Melissa was speechless. When did she like this diamond ring? And looking at it for a long time?
Julie continued saying, “Then we went dancing. Adela took off the diamond ring and put it in the handbag. But after we came back, the diamond ring disappeared.”
“Yes. Later, we found this waitress in the banquet hall. She said she saw someone take my diamond ring, and this person is Melissa!” Adela supplemented more ‘truth’, her excitement inside nearly busting out.
Adela had set up this flawless plot. Melissa must have no idea to cope with. At that time, Melissa would become a street at that everyone could beat. How could Murray marry such a thief?
As long as Murray and Melissa the country bumpkin, canceled their engagement, wouldn’t the position of Young Madam of the Gibson family belong to Adela?
Seeing Adela and Julie’s trick, Melissa sneered and squinted at the waitress with sharp eyes. “Did you really see me take Adela’s diamond ring?”
The waitress lowered her head. She did not dare to look into Melissa’s eyes. She nodded and murmured softly, “Yes, I witnessed it with my own eyes.”
“There’s no need to be afraid. Tell me the truth!” Julie eyed the waiter.
The waiter fidgeted nervously, “I went to the bathroom just now and saw Ms. Eugen wearing the diamond ring on her hand. When she saw me, she hurriedly hid the diamond ring in her handbag.”
“Melissa, return the diamond ring to Adela! You disgraced the entire Gibson family!” At some point in time, Sarah walked over with Claire.
“Sarah, don’t be angry. What does this have to do with the Gibson family?” Claire comforted quickly. “This rural woman has nothing to do with our Gibson family. Murray won’t marry a thief.”
