Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 536

Chapter 536 The Thief

Jane knitted her eyebrows in frustration, cursing Priscilla deep down. Damn you, Priscilla! You’re such a lousy teammate! I shouldn’t have gotten you to do the job! While everyone was still waiting to hear from Jane, she took a few steps and grabbed Jameson’s collar. “What do you think you’re doing, boy?!”

In that instant, everyone turned their attention to the boy whom Jane was manhandling. Meanwhile, Jameson reacted puzzledly to the lady’s rough treatment as he answered, “I’m eating a cake…”

However, Jane only angrily seized Jameson’s bag and questioned him. “Where did you get this bag? What’s inside?!”

Soon, Selena quickly walked closer to defend her son. “Miss Oberlin, you’re a descendant of a noble aristocratic family, so wouldn’t you find it shameful to shout at a kid?” Then, she stood in front of Jameson and said, “This is my son, and I don’t know what he has done to deserve your wrath, Miss Oberlin.” You may bully me all you want, but nobody lays a finger on my son, Jane! It seems that this matter is getting more and more complicated.

“Oh, I see. So this is your son? He’s got some guts to steal in our house!” Jane grunted indifferently.

“Steal?” Selena turned her attention to Jameson, who was still enjoying his cake. “Miss Oberlin, we were discussing our dresses a few moments ago, and I could tell that you looked very serious, but now you’re accusing my son of stealing. What a dramatic turn of events!”

Jane rolled her eyes at her and said, “One of our maids told me that something went missing in the house.”

“What has my son stolen?”

Jane then pointed at the bag that Jameson was carrying and said, “The answer is inside his bag! It’s an Astorian ancient scroll that’s highly valuable! In fact, there were people who came all the way from Astoria a few years back to retrieve the scroll, but we turned them down back then. I can’t believe you’d be patriotic enough to send your child here to steal it, Mrs. Fowler.”

Selena then set her eyes on Jameson’s bag for a few seconds before realizing it was not the same one her son was carrying a few moments ago. Jameson’s got a bag with him, but this one doesn’t seem like his.
