Let go of me I yelled as tears poured down from eyes but they where not listening, sir please tell them to let go of me I said referring to Mabel dad.
Stop he said abd they stopped .
Sir please I don't want to go to jail, I might be poor and helpless but am not a thief I said crying.
Then can you explain what the necklace was doing inside your bag he asked angrily.
Sir please listen to me, am saying the truth I would never take what doesn't belongs to me I said crying bitterly.
My friend is not a thief, for this past few months that I have known her she had not taken what doesn't belongs to her Anna said defending me.
Sir please let her go,we can settle this at home but not by sending her to jail, Mara is not a thief Dan said.
Dad she stole it, just take the bitch away I fucking hate seeing myself in her Mabel yelled angrily.
Please listen to me, I would never do such a thing, this is a set up I said crying, I could see Mabel and her friends laughing.
The fact that I treated you like my child doesn't gives you the right to take my things. I would have believed my wife telling me you are a gold digger , I shouldn't have gotten myself involved with a bastard like you, take her away he screamed abd I felt my heart tear apart.
I stared at him in shock as Danny and Anna watched helplessly.

We got home later,I smiled to myself victoriously, she's not even that smart.
Flash back
You think you can destroy my home I screamed at her, but she kept quiet .
You bastard answer me I screamed at her, just then I saw her school bag at the couch , I pretended to be annoyed I watched her talking abd quickly put the necklace inside the bag, I Know my husband values it .
You are gonna pay I said and walked out.
End of flashback
Am so happy right now, but a part of me feels guilty , I wonder why, I heard a knock on the door, I opened it and it was my husband.

Am really sorry for not believing you and for choosing her over my family am sorry please forgive me he said and hug me and I smiled.

Mabel mom acussed mara of stealing their family necklace and it was found in her bag but I think someone kept it there I said.
I Know she's not a bad girl, but I was just mad at her because my brother got into an accident because of her.
