Chapter 2637
Baby Robbie followed the directions that Savannah had given him and came to Victon Bridge, which was located in the northern region of Imperial Capital. He clutched Ocean's Heart tightly in his hands and walked back and forth repeatedly on the crowded bridge.
Savannah told him that according to divination, the owner of the necklace was nearby. She was next to an old locust tree.
Baby Robbie rushed over excitedly. He found a large locust tree with a wide girth. However, he felt extremely lost when he stared at the bustling customers around the tree.
His anticipation slowly dampened throughout the long wait. He gradually grew disappointed.
Suddenly, a group of high school students dressed in school uniforms walked over in a group. Despite the heavy school bags that they were carrying on their backs, there were joyous and carefree smiles on their faces. However, there was a girl walking with her back straight behind the group. Although her school bag was fully packed, she seemed to be rather relaxed as she walked while carrying it on her back.
Nevertheless, there was a pained expression on her face. She seemed to be having a hard time getting used to the stress of her academic life. The girls had admiring gazes in their eyes as they stared at Baby Robbie.
Baby Robbie heard some girls gossiping about him in hushed tones, "Wow, he's so good-looking. He's more handsome than all the celebrities I've seen."
"He seems to be a wealthy young man."
A knowledgeable girl said, "I think I've seen him before. His father is the wealthiest man in Imperial Capital."
Baby Robbie was wealthy and good-looking. He captured the hearts of all the girls around him at once.
The girl who was walking with a heavy expression on her face and her head lowered instantly raised her head when she heard what they said.
A complicated look appeared in her eyes when she caught sight of Baby Robbie. However, she soon lowered her head.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Baby Robbie waved at the girls and said, "Girls, come over here."
The girls ran toward him in high spirits. "Are you calling for us?"
Baby Robbie showed them the necklace in his hands. "Can you guys help me find the owner of this necklace?"
"This necklace seems extremely expensive. Its owner must be a young lady from a wealthy family."
"Only a gorgeous girl would be worthy of owning such a beautiful necklace."
"Is it the school belle?"
The girls started gossiping incessantly.
The young girl walking at the back of
the group had an ordinary
el
appearance. There were a few freckles on her nose. Her facial features accentuated her low self-esteem and weak personality.
She walked over and said, "I think I've seen it before." Her voice was soft and low.
The girls scoffed and looked at her. "Laurel, are you pretending to know the owner so that you can claim the necklace for yourself?"
Humiliation appeared in the girl's gaze. She clenched her hands into fists tightly as she held onto the hem of her shirt.
“That's right. She's from such a poor family. Of course, she'd want to claim the necklace for herself."
"Her academic results are terrible, yet she still wants to obtain such riches without working for them. How can someone like this exist in the world?"
Laurel stared at Baby Robbie as her classmates made fun of her. There was a hint of helplessness in her gaze.
However, Baby Robbie approached Laurel and asked her, "Miss Laurel, hurry up and tell me where and when you saw this necklace."
Laurel pondered upon it and said, "
think it was sometime last month, A
young girl with a lily hairclip on her
hair passed by here. I happened to see her wearing this necklace."
Baby Robbie revised the timeline in his head. She should be referring to the day that Hecate had just obtained the necklace from its owner.
He felt extremely upset. Laurel had not seen the owner of the necklace.
A disappointed expression appeared on his face. The bright glint in his eyes instantly dimmed as well.
Laurel gaped. Just as she was bout
to comfort Baby Robbie, her
classmates pushed her to the side
e
and fought to make their way toward Baby Robbie so that they could chat with him.
Laurel was stunned.
