"Of course I don’t mind it.I’ll even try my best to help you locate the necklace."
Daisie’s words instilled a premonition in Zenovia.
Daisie glanced at the crowd, and the waiter, who was hiding among the crowd and witnessing the play,
exchanged gazes with her.He was so frightened that he lowered his head and wanted to leave.
Daisie pointed in his direction and shouted to the security guards, "Stop him!"
Everyone stood in place, and the waiter was the only person who was leaving the scene.His actions
made it too obvious for the guards, so they apprehended him in a blink of an eye.
Zenovia’s face turned pale for a moment, and she stopped the guards.
"Wait a minute!"
All eyes were on her again.
Zenovia tried her best to suppress her panic and then said with a smile after calming herself down,
"I’ve wronged Ms.Vanderbilt, and I’m sorry about that.Since the waiter is the suspect, please allow me
to take him away for further investigation.I don’t wish to bother you too much with this matter."
Daisie crossed her arms.
"I only pointed at him based on a hunch, but how can you conclude that the waiter is the suspect so
quickly?"
Zenovia stopped moving abruptly and stood still.
Daisie smiled.
"So from now on, will you regard anyone present that I point to as a suspect? How do you come up
with a judgment for that, Ms.Livingston?"
Daisie’s words hurt the crowd's impression of Zenovia even further.Her actions were not based on
anything at all, and she just went on blaming others without presenting any evidence.
As expected, she was doing whatever she wanted because of her relationship with the king.
Zenovia’s expression looked extremely embarrassed, but she could not lose her head on the spot.
‘Daisie must've known something to be able to embarrass me deliberately"
She took a deep breath, and her eyes were bloodshot.
"Ms.Vanderbilt, I’ve already apologized to you.Why must you act so aggressively against me?"
"Aren't you the aggressive one here? You suspected that I was the one who stole your necklace
without putting any evidence forward, and you even wanted to search my body.Now, you're trying to
push all the blame onto the waiter.However, what’s the truth behind all these commotions? I strongly
believe that you know it better than I do."
A chill shot down Zenovia’s spine as her body trembled.Now that the matter had developed to this
extent, this outcome was completely beyond her expectations.
Unfortunately, she could not care about so many things right now.She must make sure that the waiter
would side with her.
Thus, she walked up to the waiter with a cold gaze.
"Did you take my necklace?"
The waiter was about to say something, but he saw Zenovia’s gaze and thought of the fact he had
received the payment.If he were to offend anyone from the upper social class, he would lose
everything.He compromised and lowered his head.
"Yes...I’m the one who took it."
The manager gnashed his teeth angrily.
"Have you lost your mind? How can you take someone else's valuables! ?"
The waiter cried aggrieved.
"It’s my fault.I was greedy.That’s why I took Ms.Livingston’s necklace."
When Zenovia asked the security guards to take the waiter away, Daisie asked, "You didn't steal it, so
why would you plead guilty?"
Zenovia stared at Daisie and could no longer stay calm.
"Ms.Vanderbilt, what do you mean? This waiter has already pleaded guilty."
"It's such a coincidence that the person I pointed out based on a hunch is the thief."
Daisie walked toward the waiter, who had lowered his head and dared not look at her.
Zenovia quickly grabbed Daisie’s arm.
"Ms.Vanderbilt, I’ve already apologized to you.What else do you want from me?"
Daisie turned and glanced at her expressionlessly.
"If you think he’s committed a crime, then you should hand him over to the police.I don’t see the reason
for handing him over to you.I've already called the police.He won’t be allowed to leave the scene for
now, not until the police’s arrival."
After a while, the police came to the scene and claimed that someone had called them, reporting a
theft.
The blood was drained from Zenovia’s cheeks little by little.
The manager stepped forward to explain the situation to the police, and the police took the waiter away.
