Chapter 19 Steal the Diamond Ring

Murray thought, No?

That means Melissa is not the girl who saved me when I was a child.

Murray’s eyes darkened. A disappointed look flashed across his handsome face.

Melissa pursed her lips and felt that it was a little strange.

Melissa thought, What does he mean by that? Does he want me to be kidnapped?

Murray and Melissa didn’t say anything more. When they returned home, Sarah handed Murray an invitation card and said, “Don’t forget Mr. Yale’s 70th birthday party will be held this weekend.”

Archer’s birthday banquet would be held in the most luxurious hotel in Aldness. All the guests were distinguished figures. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Melissa was dismissive of such a banquet, but she was woken up by Sarah early in the morning.

“Don’t embarrass the Gibson family!” Sarah glared at Melissa and said coldly.

The banquet was bustling with noise and excitement, but Melissa felt bored. After taking a look at Murray who was in the crowd of people, Melissa stood up and prepared to go to the rooftop to get some air.

After a few steps, Melissa was blocked by a group of people. They were Adela and her best friends.

Adela stretched out her hand. There was a sparkling diamond ring on her fair finger, making her look even more noble and generous.

Adela deliberately glanced at Melissa. With a self-satisfied smirk on her face, Adela said, “Do you see that? This is designed by Ada, the world-famous designer. It is a limited edition worldwide. My grandfather bought this from a foreign auction and gave it to me on my birthday last year.”

“It’s beautiful!” Adela’s friend complimented, “only you are worthy of such a noble ring.”

Melissa thought it was boring.

Melissa glanced at the diamond ring on Adela’s hand. Melissa thought, It is beautiful, but the diamond is a little small. It’s a lot smaller than the ones grandpa gave me.

Melissa said, “Please get out of the way.” Melissa went straight past them and walked forward, looking steadily forward.

Mocking words then came from behind Melissa. “Country folk have not seen the world.”

Melissa stayed on the rooftop for a while. When she returned to the banquet hall, a waiter in uniform pointed at her and shouted, “It’s her! The person I saw just now was her!”

Melissa stopped in her tracks. Melissa thought, what’s wrong with him? Why is he pointing at me for no reason?

Hearing what the waiter said, Adela quickly walked up to Melissa and said, “Melissa, so it was you who stole my diamond ring.”

Melissa didn’t know what was going on.

Melissa frowned and glanced at Adela, saying, “I don’t know what you are talking about?”

Adela’s friends also walked over and began to blame Melissa.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Gibson’s fiancée to be a thief.”

“She’s just a bumpkin. She may have never seen such a precious diamond ring in her life. She can’t afford such an expensive diamond ring, so she stole it.”

“Adela, don’t be so kind. Call the police directly!”

Melissa finally realized that this group of people wanted to wrongly accuse her of stealing the diamond ring.

Melissa glanced at Adela’s hand. Sure enough, the diamond ring on Adela’s hand was gone.

Archer heard the noise and walked over with his walking stick. “What happened?” Archer said.

Adela held Archer’s arm and said with a pained expression, “Grandpa, you have to help me.” Adela then glared at Melissa and said, “Melissa stole the diamond ring you gave me.”

Archer patted Adela on the shoulder to comfort her. Archer then narrowed his eyes and looked at Melissa, saying, “Ms. Eugen, did you take Adela’s diamond ring?”

Melissa smiled calmly and said, “No.”

Archer frowned and said, “The diamond ring is not very valuable, but it is Adela’s favorite thing. Ms. Eugen, if you like it, I will send you a better one another day. Now please return the diamond ring to Adela.”

“I didn’t take it. How can I return it?” Melissa said helplessly.

Julie, Adela’s friend, pulled the waiter who pointed at Melissa over and said angrily, “Melissa, do you still have any shame? Someone saw it with his eyes that you took it, but you still want to deny it.”
