The Ex and Her Riches

Chapter 469

Looking at Cedrick’s back, Craig knitted his brows. He somehow sensed that something was wrong, so he did not immediately follow the former.

Cedrick turned around after taking a few steps. “This is an order. Do you want to disobey your superior?”

“No, I wouldn’t dare.”

Instead of dwelling on it, Craig had no choice but to follow Cedrick to his office to have a meeting.

At seven o’clock in the evening, Gwendolyn and Nico took four troops of soldiers with them to surround the entire Newton residence.

It was terrifying to see a group of tall and burly soldiers besiege the inner courtyard wall of the villa.

The butler, Karl Damon, was shocked upon seeing the situation.

“W-What’s wrong?”

Gwendolyn came forward and explained, “Sir, my crystal earrings disappeared during the tea party in the afternoon. I checked all the socialites who attended the tea party, and Jasmine is the only one left.”

With a stern face, Nico showed his ID to Karl and said, “Please cooperate with the investigation by Federal Bureau of Investigation.”

Karl was stupefied.

Are they suspecting that Ms. Jasmine stole the crystal carrings?

“T-This is impossible, Mrs. Jenson. Ms. Jasmine grew up with you, so you know her best. As the youngest daughter of the Newton family, she has been doted on by everyone in the family growing up and has everything in the world. It’s impossible that she would steal your stuff!”

Yet, Gwendolyn refused to back down. “That may be the case in the past, but as you know, Jasmine is vindictive. I had a fight with her at the tea party today. We can’t rule out the possibility that she maliciously stole the crystal earrings to take revenge on me.”

“How is that possible?” Karl panicked. “She was raised with strict discipline in the Newton family. It’s absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing.”

Nico looked at his watch and decided not to continue the conversation. “We’ll only find out after a search. Please step aside.”

With a wave of his hand, the soldiers behind him quickly rushed into the villa.
