Chapter 8 The Work Of The Master
"What did I do now? Who are you calling a thief?"

Maria's brows slightly furrowed but she didn't really panic in the face of Vivian's outright accusation.

"Who else but you!" Pointing a finger at Maria's neck, Vivian almost exploded. She spouted fiercely, "You know what you did! You stole Jadee!"

A bit confused, Maria looked in the direction where Vivian was pointing and found that she was referring to her pendant.

"This thing?"

As if she still didn't care about what was happening, Maria casually took off the pendant, and threw it to Bill.

Not expecting that Maria would do something like this, Bill was startled.

Fortunately, he stretched out his hands in time and managed to catch it immediately. Vivian and Julie also came over to take a closer look and to check if it really was Jadee.

But among everyone else, Lily was the most surprised one.

It was actually good for her that the whole Jenkins family had caught Maria red-handed. But that wasn't the point.

How on earth did Maria have the same precious jade piece as Vivian?

It was supposed to be the work of an extremely famous master. There was no way that poor Maria could possess something like that.

More importantly, it was impossible that Maria was the one who stole it because all of this was just a part of Lily's plan to get back at her. She was the one who had hidden Jadee in a safe location.
