And then in the next second, the top end of the glass crushed.
The sharp crumbs of glass, lodged deep in her flesh, were bloody.
However, she did not react at all and let the liquid flow freely.
"Jocelyn." she gritted her teeth, the eerie chill and murderous aura under her eyes.
......
Zoe was looking at lipsticks at the Chanel counter in Grand Treasure Plaza.
Just at this time, Zoe's mobile phone vibrated.
Zoe put back the hand that was ready to take the lipstick, and glanced at the phone screen.
The caller is her mother.
Zoe then pressed answer, "Hello, mum."
"Zoe." Zoe's mother's voice was laced with sobs and her voice was hoarse.
At the sound of the voice, Zoe was dumbfounded.
Her heart throbbed hard, "Mum, what's wrong with you?"
"Zoe, our house suffered a burglary, your last gift to your father, and my watch and the family cash were all stolen. Oh, and our family's ancestral gold and jewellery were stolen."
"It adds up to hundreds of thousands."
The more Zoe's mother spoke, the sadder she became, and the more hoarse her voice became.
Listening to her mother sobbing, Zoe's heart hurt, "Mom, take it easy, did you call the police?"
"Yes, but, the police doesn't care at all." Zoe's mother said.
"What do you mean?" Zoe's eyes were full of incredulity.
"They said there is no evidence to prove that we have so many things in our house, and there is no evidence that our house has been stolen. They told me to find evidence myself before go back to them."
Hearing the words, Zoe was shocked.
Now, are all these people so arrogant already?
This is the same as telling her mother that they don't want to be involved in all this.
"Your father was furious, and then argued with the police, and later they were more regardless and threatened to put your father in jail." added Zoe’s mother.
Hearing these words, Zoe was even more furious, "I will go home."
She was going to finish shopping at the mall later and go home to see her parents in the afternoon.
Now that this has happened, she must hurry back.
She was worried about her mum and dad.
Mum and Dad, although, knowing that she had found a boyfriend who was very well-off, still, were maintaining the fine virtue of being frugal.
The money, no doubt, is huge for the thrifty ones who are used to it.
Her parents are already sad after this incident, and now they are in conflict with the law enforcement officers, so naturally they will be even more upset.
She has to hurry back and take a look.
