Chapter 970 “Nicole, it is not too late for you to admit it, and it‘s not a shame to apologize to Grandpa in public.”
“You won‘t be the only one to be embarrassed if you are exposed later.” Chloe climbed on her high horse and swept her eyes at Nicole and then at Mrs. Wallace Sr.
Nicole smirked and asked rhetorically, “Chloe, if you admit it now, I can plead for you in front of grandpa. Grandpa is in a good mood today. Maybe he won‘t punish you heavily. If not, you won‘t be the only one to lose face
later.”
Chloe did not expect Nicole to ask her back, her heart skipping a beat, and she quickly adjusted her state of mind. She had hidden the real diamond, and no one knew where it was except her. So she thought Nicole must be bluffing
“Nicole, I think you‘re drunk without drinking. Since you suspect me, prove it to everyone.” Chloe challenged Nicole, knowing that she had no proof.
“Okay, at first, I did not want to say anything. But since you have asked for it, I will make it happen.” Nicole looked Chloe in the eyes with a sneer.
“Here‘s what happened: before I left the country, Chloe asked me to bring a rare Dresden Green Diamond to
grandpa. As I was in a hurry, I didn‘t open it to confirm. After I got it to grandpa , I opened it and saw that it was an ordinary diamond. Snow and Raine can testify to it.” Nicole paused for a moment to look at them. Raine quickly stood up, as this was the best chance to embarrass Nicole. “I can testify that when we opened the box that day, it was indeed an ordinary diamond inside, so we deduced Nicole had swapped it midway. Grandpa was also present at that time.”
“What?” The others who were present heard this and looked at Nicole in shock.
“Nicole, how dare you swap Grandpa‘s diamond? You‘re so shameless . You even hit Raine the other day. I don‘t understand why the Riddle family has someone like you.” Karen took advantage of the issue and took out her anger on Nicole.
“Nicole hit Raine?!” All the elders stepped out to criticize Nicole.
“Be quiet. Let Nicole finish her sentence.” Mr. Riddle Sr. knocked his staff on the ground.
