Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right -
Chapter 83
“Don’t know.
I’ve never seen her before.
”
“Wait a second! I know her! Lynne introduced her to me earlier; she’s a new agent’s assistant at Vitality Entertainment.
”
“What? Who invited her here?”
Lynne elbowed her way past the crowd and hurried to defend her.
“Lindsey’s innocent! She would never do such a thing!”
“How are you so sure?” Shelia walked up to Lynne aggressively, snarling, “She’s just an assistant.
When she saw Mrs.
Lopez’s million-dollar ring, she probably couldn’t help herself.
After all, she’d never be able to make that much money even if she worked every day for the rest of her life!
Besides, the rest of us are all big shots in the entertainment circle.
If she didn’t take it, who else would?”
Hearing what Shelia said, all the people present turned to look at Lindsey, their eyes filled with either suspicion or disdain.
Emilio, who had seen this all unfold from the second floor, grew a little restless.
He asked Domenic, “Want me to deal with it?”
“No rush,” Domenic replied dismissively.
Truth be told, he wanted to know how Lindsey would deal with the matter.
Seeing that everyone was starting to doubt Lindsey, a complacent smile tugged at the corners of Shelia’s lips.
With her arms crossed over her chest, she looked at Lindsey and sneered, “Everyone’s watching you.
Why don’t you open your bag and let us see if the ring’s ther
e?”
Lindsey, on the other hand, was as cool as a cucumber.
Wearing a faint smile, she announced calmly, “The ring is indeed in my bag.
”
Her announcement caused quite the uproar.
The guests had mixed reactions.
“She looks so pretty and innocent.
How could she be a thief?”
“I’ve met a lot of people like her-people who will do anything for money.
”
“But to steal from Mrs.
Lopez herself? She’ll be banned from the entertainment circle!”
“Don’t feel sorry for her! She deserves to be banned!”
Paige’s doubt quickly turned into disappointment.
However, Lindsey was still very calm.
Her gaze swept across the restless crowd as she continued, “But I didn’t steal the ring.
Someone slipped the ring into my bag in an attempt to frame me.
”
“Why would anyone here want to frame a nameless assistant?” One of the guests scoffed at her explanation.
Shelia smiled even more complacently.
“The ring’s in your bag, yet you still claim to not have stolen it.
People like you don’t deserve to work for are Vitality Entertainment.
Get out of here!”
The others chimed in with righteous indignation, shouting, “A thief like you doesn’t belong here! Get out!”
