Chapter 615
Cornelia looked coldly at everyone, speaking slowly and forcefully “Why do you demand that I prove my innocence?
Just because of your word, I have to prove I’m not guilty. Is this fair? Can I live a peaceful life? If a dog barks at me,
do I also have to prove that I didn’t steal its food?”
The lady in black didn’t expect Cornelia’s reasoning to be so clear, so she helplessly glanced at Cameron
Cameron always knew that Cornelia had a bad temper, and that she was not an easy person to deal with, she
would never let anyone check her bag.
Luckily, he didn’t actually need to
He looked at the necklace faintly visible around Cornelia’s neck, “Could you please open your shirt collar and let us
see your necklace?”
“You want to see my necklace? What gives you the right?” At this moment, Cornelia was almost certain that the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnecklace around her neck was the real Heavenly Radiance.
From the first day she worked with Marcus, she heard from Ben that Marcus went to Paris before heading back and
spent 30 million dollars on a necklace for his wife…..
Cornelia had no idea that Marcus had delivered this 30 million–dollar necklace to her in disguise.
The necklace that Marcus spent 30 million dollars on couldn’t possibly be fake
So, there was only one possibility, Clair’s Heavenly Radiance was a knockoff.
If this got out, not only would Clair be embarrassed, but the whole Reese family and even the Reese Group would
be humiliated. This could potentially affect the Reese Group’s stock.
Cameron said, “The necklace around your neck is the one she lost. Now, if you give the necklace back to us, I can
let it go, and this matter can be put to rest. But if you insist on keeping something worth thirty million dollars, I can’t
just give it to you, and we will have to call the police to handle this.”
Upon hearing this, Leonardo got angry “Cameron, what are you talking about? This is an insult to Cornelia’s dignity”
“She’s just an assistant working for Marcus, maybe occasionally doing some special tasks. What dignity does she
have.” With Marcus not around, Cameron didn’t hold back
his words
He had always wanted to humiliate this woman, but every time he saw her, she was with Marcus, which didn’t give
him a chance to do so.
“Heh, Cameron, don’t drag President Hartley into your dirty thoughts.” Cornelia scoffed, “Are you saying the
necklace around my neck is identical to the one your stepmother
lost?”
Cameron nodded, “Many people have seen Heavenly Radiance tonight, I’m not just making things up”
The onlookers echoed, “Yes, yes, we’ve all seen it. The necklace Mrs. Reese lost looks exactly like that.”
Cornelia started laughing. “It’s surprising that the wife of the Reese Group is wearing a knockoff and shamelessly
claiming it’s worth 30 million dollars.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia’s words were like a depth charge thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a great uproar.
The fact that the lady of the Reese family was wearing a knockoff necklace was more shocking than an assistant
stealing it
Most of the guests at the birthday party were there for their own interests, not many were sincerely celebrating
Many people secretly hoped that Clair’s necklace was a knockoff, so they would have a juicy gossip topic in the
future
Cameron’s aim was to show everyone that Cornelia was poor, indicating that she couldn’t afford a real necklace
and therefore had ill intentions when seeing the real one. But now Cornelia had taken the first step, which annoyed
him, “You’re talking nonsense! The two necklaces are identical, the only person who could be wearing a knockoff
is you!
“Did I say my necklace was real?” Cornelia chuckled, “The necklace around my neck was bought by my husband
from a street stall, and it only cost a few bucks. But to me, even if it’s just a few bucks, as long as it’s from my
husband, it’s priceless.”
Cornelia’s candid confession that she was wearing a knockoff ruined Cameron’s plan, but he wasn’t going to let it
go, “Do you think that by saying this, you can shake off the suspicion of theft?”
Leonardo, “And what do you want to do then?”
