NovelStartChapter 836 Catherine Was Doomed All the audience gaped at the LED screen, thinking they could enjoy the tidbit.
"Show your thing to Mr. Jones," a man behind the girl reminded her in a low voice.
The girl returned to her senses. "OK." She pulled out a shabby box, looking nervous but trying to keep calm.
Then she passed the box to the man opposite.
All people on the scene recognized the man sitting at the table was the one who wanted to tell them a story.
Catherine closed her eyes, trying to adjust her breath.
‘Shit! Damned Linda Chambers! How dare she sell the bracelet and ring!" On the screen, Aston picked up the box and carefully studied the jewelry. There was a ring and a bracelet in the box.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCatherine thought she had failed completely, struggling. However, Ivan's bodyguards gripped her more tightly.
"How much are you selling them?" Aston asked in a low voice.
Linda blurted out, "1. 2 million dollars." Catherine was shocked by how stupid she was, wishing to kill her immediately.
Linda offered such a low price, so the man must have realized she had stolen them and suspected her.
A short silence appeared on the screen.
Then the girl changed her wording. "One million would be fine." Evidently, she wanted to get rid of the jewelry as soon as possible.
The deal was made. Aston reminded his bodyguard to send someone to watch Linda as he suspected her.
That was the end of the surveillance video.
Holding the microphone, Aston said, "Ms. Collins, you asked her to replace all four pieces of the Clover series. If not mistaken, only earrings and a necklace are in your box." Catherine was retrained by the two bodyguards, looking embarrassed. All the audience gazed at her with inquisitive eyes.
Aston opened the box in everyone's presence, proving his guess was real.
The audience was shocked.
"That girl only solda low price for a ring and bracelet. She also ratted you out." Aston looked at Catherine. "Any refute?" Leslie hit the handrail violently on the second floor.
Seething with rage, he was about to turn away. Josh followed him, thinking they had shot themselves in the foot.
The next second, another video was played on the LED screen.
Linda had been arrested by the police.
"Officer, how many years will | be sentenced?" That was her first line right after opening the door. She was calm, as if she had expected it to happen already.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter being taken downstairs, she met Ivan and Jennifer.
"Ms. Brooks, Catherine has the earring and the necklace. She threatenedand askedto replace the jewelry. I'm confessing everything. Can | get a commutation of the sentence?" The arrested girl looked agitated.
"Why did she only want two pieces?" Jennifer asked.
Linda answered, her hands handcuffed, "She didn't ask for only two pieces. | lied to her that | only stole two pieces. | didn't want to keep in touch with her any longer, so | planned to sell another two pieces and run away." There was an uproar on the scene.
Finally, Catherine understood why she couldn't get in touch with Linda in the past few days. It turned out she had been arrested already.
"This bitch is so vicious and evil!" saudience cursed Catherine while pointing at her. "How could she have done such an unethical thing?" All people glared at her.
Newson was furious and said solemnly, "Ms. Collins, you tricked me. You replaced the real jewelry and calledto appraise it so the Marsh Group's reputation would be tarnished.” Catherine couldn't utter a beep to retort. Lowering her head, she dodged others’ gazes.
Waves of bland curses attacked her. The hall bectoo noisy.
Suddenly, Aston added, "The real ones are in this box, but it doesn't mean the Marsh Group has presented the fake ones to you all. We've found the truth and dealt with the problem." He said affirmatively, "To disclose Ms. Collins’ evil deeds and let her expose herself, we didn't alert her. Instead, we produced the missing two pieces again. The Marsh Group's employees have resolved the manipulated crisis by their wisdom." "Ms. Collins." Aston's gaze fell back on Catherine. "Do you want us to put Linda Chambers on the video call? Do you want to defend yourself?"
