Chapter 487 The Stolen Pot
Chapter 487
The ceremony had concluded, but the banquet in the main hall was still ongoing, and it
was now time for toasting.
Isabella sat by the flower bed, holding a pot in her hands. After much consideration,
she decided to place the pot, filled with various items, behind the statue near the
fountain. Firstly, it would be out of sight, and secondly, since the banquet was attended
by the wealthy and noble, no one would pay attention to these items.
Just as she finished placing the items, Mandy came looking for her. There were several
actresses in the front hall, and some even approached Isabella for a photo.
Isabella was also enjoying her popularity. Most of the actresses who approached
allowed her to stand in the middle. When she encountered more popular ones, she
wisely moved to the side.
After a round of toasting and drinking, Mandy led her to a quieter area,

“Why didn’t you stand in the middle when we took a photo with Zephyr Goldman?”
Mandy was disappointed. She had hoped to stand closer to her idol.
Isabella understood what she was thinking and took a sip of champagne. “Didn’t you
see the looks on the faces of Genevieve and the other ladies? They were practically
glaring at us. Why bother?”
Mandy pouted, still feeling a bit regretful. “It’s getting late. Let’s go outside for some
fresh air and then head back.”
Isabella wasn’t here to have fun tonight. She had come to help Briana fulfill her dream.
Once the mission was complete, it would be better to leave early.
Mandy, who was more playful, followed her outside for some fresh air, intending
return and wait for Jerry.
“You were so lucky during the ceremony. I could feel the weight in your pot.” As they

walked along the garden path, Mandy marveled.
Isabella, slightly tipsy, put her hands behind her back. “I didn’t expect it either. I was
shocked when I saw what was inside.”
“By the way, there are several new necklaces in the pot. You can choose one if you like.”
“That’s great.” Mandy clapped her hands happily and eagerly pulled Isabella toward the
lawn.
When they arrived at the fountain, Isabella turned around and said, “I left it behind the
statue. Holding the pot was too silly.”
“You just left the pot here?” Mandy looked around anxiously. “Check if it’s still th
Isabella laughed. “Only we think it’s valuable. doubt many people here today actually

As she spoke, she walked around to the back of the statue. When she turned her head,
she almost couldn’t believe her eyes. The dais behind the statue was empty. There was
nothing there.
“What happened?” Mandy leaned over to take a look, then exclaimed, “It’s really gone?”
Isabella was also surprised. “That’s impossible. I left it here.”
She patted her forehead, preferring to think that she had had too much to drink rather
than believe that someone would steal things at such an event. “Maybe one of the staff
members picked it up?”
Mandy shrugged, spotted a waiter, and called him over.
The waiter immediately denied it upon hearing their inquiry. “If you’re certain you le
