Chapter 305:
With that, she took the lead and headed toward the restroom. The female officer followed her.
Two minutes later, the female officer emerged from the restroom. She walked up to Minna and showed her a
necklace. “Is this the necklace you were looking for?”
It was indeed the missing necklace.
Minna was stunned.
“So, Macie was the one who stole the necklace. Who would have thought she was the culprit, especially with the
way she blamed Belinda just now?”

“What a manipulative person!”
“This is a shameless display of disloyalty. Minna is Macie’s best friend, yet Macie stole her necklace.”
Macie walked out of the restroom at that moment. Her face was pale, and shock was written all over it. She
couldn't understand what was going on.
She was certain that she had put the necklace in Belinda’s bag before. How then had it ended up in her pocket?
“Ms. Sampson, please cwith us,” the male officer said.
Macie went even paler upon hearing this. Shaking her head, she desperately said, “It wasn’t me! | didn’t steal
it!” She then turned to Minna. “You believe me, right? | swear | didn't steal it!”
Minna was also shocked at how things had cto this. However, she couldn't let the police take Macie away
now. If Macie were taken away by the police, she would be labeled as a thief forever.

“This must be a mistake, officer,” Minna quickly said to the officer. “There must be a misunderstanding here.”
Belinda, who was standing to the side, said with a mocking smile, “You really amuse me, Ms. Williamson. When
you accusedof stealing your necklace, you seemed so certain of it. It was as if you had put the necklace in
my bag yourself. Didn't you say before the police were called that the necklace was extremely important to you
and that you wouldn't let the culprit go unpunished? But now that it turned out your friend is the culprit, the
matter is suddenly a misunderstanding? Are you playing games with the police?”
“You...” Minna stuttered, at a loss for words.

The male officer spoke up at that moment. “Whether or not it's a misunderstanding, we still have to carry out
our investigation. We need to take the culprit to the police station now.”
Just as the officers were about to leave, Belinda called out, “Wait a moment!”
She stepped forward and approached the officers. “I have something more to say about the necklace, officer.
Could you hand it tofor a moment?”
The male officer hesitated for a while but eventually handed Belinda the necklace.
Everyone watched curiously, wondering what Belinda was going to do as she walked over to Minna.
A faint smirk appeared on Belinda’s lips as she said, “Given how much you supposedly treasure this necklace,
Ms. Williamson, | think you should know this necklace is a fake.”
Belinda’s words left everyone in stunned silence.
