Chapter 162
J was just about in inquire carefully when someone suddenly pushed her aside and asked concernedly, “Mabel, what did you loser” Realizing <b>that </b>it was Melody. Mabel looked up and met Melody’s cold, deep gare.
Melody’s gaze sent chills down Mabel’s spine but the coldness disappeared in the blink of an eye, reced by an
in expression full of c
Mabel wondered if she saw it wrongly, but before she could take a closer look, Melody grabbed her hand and began earnestly helping her search. “What are you doing?” Mabel subconsciously frowned
Melody let go of Mabel’s hand and said innocently. “You lost something, so I’m helping you look for it. Brooches are so small that they can easily <b>fall </b>off, maybe it fell somewhere on your clothes
knowing that brooches didn’t <b>fall </b>off that easily. Mabel smirked coldly inside <b>as </b>she foresaw that Melody would be known as a thief soon.
After Mabel gave Ynda a look, Ynda immediately stepped forward to pull Melody aside, while Ynda’s hand inadvertently knocked against Melody’s head, causing Melody’s beret to fall to the ground
Ynda <b>was </b>filled with excitement while she quickly apologized before bending down to picki up Melody’s hat, adding, “Melody, I was afraid you might tear Mabel’s clothes, I’m sorry.”
Mabel also looked at
at the <b>hat </b><b>with </b>anticipation <b>because </b>although the hat itself seemed usual, its lining was printed with dog patterns.
J had warned Mabel not to <b>have </b>anything <b>rted </b>to dogs at this event because Fairlee’s mother had died of rabies after being bitten by a dog.
Now, as long as they turned the hat <b>inside </b>out to reveal the dog patterns, Melody would be finished because wearing a hat with dog patterns to Fairlee’s fortieth birthday celebration would be seen <b>as </b><b>a </b>tant provocation<b>, </b>and everyone would think Melody was an ignorant and malicious country bumpkin.
After apologizing for knocking off the hat, Ynda picked the hat up and naturally turned inside out, handing it back to Melody with the lining facing up
She didn’t look at Melody or the hat but instead stared directly at Fairlee, believing that Fairlee would explode <b>in </b>anger soon
However, a few seconds passed, and Fairlee’s expression remained unchanged
Ynda thought. How could this be? Jin’t Fairlee supposed to erupt in anger upon seeing the hat
Ynda’s mind went nk for a moment, then she quickly looked at the hat, realizing the original dog pattern lining <b>had </b>somehow changed to a cat partern.
Upon recalling their visit to Wilmor’s shop for styling, Ynda instantly
ly understood the situation and inwardly scolded Wilmot, determined to
teach him a lesson after this.
While <b>Ynda </b>seeshed with anger, Mabel openly expressed her disbelief, eximing. “How is this possible?“
Melody put her hat back on and asked Mabel with a faint smile, “Mabel, <b>what </b>do you mean by how is this possible?”
With their n failed, Mabel was both shocked and furious as she blurted out, “Your hat isn’t..
Ynda quickly tagged on Mabel’s sleeve and said, “Mabel, now is not the time to worry about whether Melody’s hat is an straight, let’s find the brooch <b>Miss </b>Murphy gave you <b>first</b><b>”</b>Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Ynda smiled gently, and with just one sentence, she exined Mabel’spse due to her concern for Melody’s hat.
The crowd couldn’t help but look approvingly at Mabel, feeling that she was a girl with good character as she was still sa concerned about Melody’s appearance even when she had lost something
Reminded by Ynda, Mabel quickly regained herposure and masked all her emotions,forting herself inwardly, ‘It’s fine, the hat <b>trick </b>failed, but there’s still the brooch. Thank goodness that Mom is smart enough to set up multiple traps:
Thinking this, Mabel pretended to help Melody adjust her hat and then looked at Melody’s chest, feeling fortunate that the brooch was still the same one she had pinneil earlier.
Mabel heaved <b>a </b>sigh of relief as she thought, It’s just a coincidence earlier, Melody is so stupid, so how will she figure out our nt
The next second, Mabe pretended to be surprised and pointed to Melody’s chest. “Melody, why is my brooch on you?”
Melody <b>looked </b>puzzled <b>as </b>she <b>asked</b>, “Mabel, what brooch are you talking <b>rm?</b>?”
Mabel was focused on her act and didn’t notice the fleeting cold glint in Melody’s eyes.
Chapter 162
The brooch on your chest is the brooch that I lost,” Mabel said with an aggrieved and forbearing expression. “Melody, if you wanted something of mine, you could have just asked as I would give you anything. But this brooch <b>was </b><b>a </b>gift from Miss Murphy, how could you <b>take </b>a gift given to me by someone else?”
Melody looked like an innocent deer, pointing to the brooch, saying, “Mabel you must be mistaken. This brooch was given to me by someone else, it’s not yours
Ynda stepped forward at the right moment, her face stern. “Melody, why are you still lying at this point? I regret bringing you back from the countryside. When did you start <b>this </b>habit of <b>stealing</b>? You’re simply disgraceful.”
Despite Ynda’s usations, Melody’s expression remained unchanged as she continued to exin innocently. “This is my brooch and I didn’t take Mabel’s.”
Upon hearing this, Vnda vaguely sensed something was wrong, wondering why Melody wasn’t even rifying that the brooch <b>had </b>been pinned on her by Mabel <b>earlier</b>.
