Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 525

If Yolanda hadn't pried open the red coral bead bracelet before his eyes, he might have believed that Edna didn't know anything, based on how innocent she looked.

Vic's birthday was coming up. No matter if he had gotten this bracelet for himself or as a gift for Vic, they would still fall victim to this five-million-dollar bracelet.

Yolanda mentioned that this poison was slow-acting. If either of them were poisoned six months down the road, they would have no way of finding out who did it to them. It was practically a way to kill someone off without a trace.

Edna was the manager of an antique shop and also the troop leader who helped others resell illegal artifacts. If she claimed that she couldn't tell if something was wrong with the bracelet, Knox wouldn't believe her at all.

Knox felt that Edna had deliberately placed the bracelet in a place where it would easily catch his attention, and then she strongly recommended him to buy it to achieve her purpose of poisoning him.

"Mr. Knox, you—" Edna widened her eyes, feigning an innocent look that was contradictory to her "girl boss" image.

She clearly knew what she was doing since she also thought that a lot of men would fall for it.

However, Edna had played the wrong game today. Even if she were to sob pitifully in front of Knox, he wouldn't care at all.

"I'll give you one last chance, Edna Moorley. Spit it out, or I'll expose you to the world. The aftereffects of that wouldn't just be a destroyed shop."

Edna resumed her haughtiness once she realized it didn't work for her to feign innocence. A silver of solemness slipped onto her face at the same time.

"If you have something to say, just say it directly, Mr. Knox."

"Since you don't know what's good for you, sure. I'll fulfill your wishes."

Knox took out a napkin with the red coral bead bracelet in it and slammed it onto the counter.

"Look at this!"

"Oh? The string that holds the bracelet is broken." Edna breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled.
