My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Being Framed

Laura exhaled gently, rubbed her wrist that was red from the bump and checked her skirt.

The skirt was borrowed from a sponsor in the company, so it could not get dirty.

Luckily, the waiter had reacted quickly. He had immediately turned the plate in his hand around after realizing that he had bumped into her.

As a result, even though she fell to the floor, her dress was still intact.

She felt so lucky.

Laura was relieved to see that nothing was wrong and was ready to leave.

Max, who was not far away, saw that she was leaving and hurriedly tried to follow her.

However, just at that moment, several guests from the business community gathered around him.

"Mr. Nixon, it's been a long time since we last met. I heard that you have recently been promoted to be the president of Nixon Group, congratulations."

"Mr. Nixon, since we've met today, why don't you have a drink with us?"

"Yes, we all want to meet you and have a talk with you. However, we've never had the chance. So, today we have to have a good chat with us anyway."

Max was surrounded by several people and could not leave.

He could ignore other people but not them as they were the bigwigs in the business world.

Although he was the only son of the Nixon family, he could not afford to ignore them. Furthermore, they were all friends of his father and had a lot of business dealings with the Nixon family.

With no choice, Max had to stay and smiled at them, "I felt flattered. Let's talk over here."

He led them to the parlor inside.

Laura, on the other hand, was feeling good as she had managed to get rid of him.

However, just when she reached the entrance of the hotel, she was stopped by a few police officers.

"Miss, we have received a report that you are carrying a large number of prohibited items, please come with us."

...

After following Nathan out to socialize, Natalia then returned to the lobby and turned around, but she could not find Laura.

She simply asked a waiter and realized that she had already left.

So, she did not think too much. It was late now, and Laura still had scenes to shoot tomorrow, so it was normal for her to leave early.

At the same time, in a room right next to the hotel.

Laura looked at the large bag of methamphetamine that had been searched out in front of her in a shock.

"Pop!" With a loud bang, a bright white light was turned on above her head, stinging her eyes and she felt pain.

Laura subconsciously raised her hand to shield her eyes, and then lowered her hand to look at a serious-faced officer sitting opposite to her.

Her face turned pale.

Although she did not know what was going on until now, one thing was for sure.

She had been framed!

However, who could it be? Who could have framed her with such a dirty trick?

The prohibited items were retrieved from her bag while all her costumes and props today were provided by her company.

Her company would not have framed her, so who would it be?

She suddenly thought of the waiter who had just bumped into her.

At the time she was knocked to the ground, it was the waiter who picked her handbag up, which meant that apart from the people in the company and herself, that waiter was the only one who had touched her bag.

"Say it! Where did these things come from!"

As she was thinking, she heard the officer's serious voice.

Laura snapped back to her senses and looked at him with a pale face.

"I don't know, this stuff does not belong to me."
