Chapter 76: Call The Police
J frowned deeply.
"The footage can’t prove that I stole the wallet.Why are you so hell-bent on ndering me? Perhaps it
was you who took the wallet and slipped it into my pocket to frame me."
ine’s nostrils red and her eyes went wide.
To cover up her ploy, she raised her voice and pointed a finger at J.
"Don’t you dare use me! The wallet was found in your pocket, so obviously, you were the one who
stole it!"
"ine, how many times do we have to say that the footage doesn’t show that it was J who stole
it? Stop framing her."
Christopher looked at her coldly and added, "I know she didn’t steal the wallet."
ine had wanted to paint J as a thief so that Christopher would dislike her.
But now that Christopher was even protecting J, ine was utterly enraged.
"Christopher, just how well do you know J? Maybe she’s not the good girl you make her out to
be.There were a lot of rumors about her back in college.Her ssmates wouldn’t make up stories for
no reason.Plus, now she’s trying to put the me on me.You heard it yourself!"
ine’s voice was shrill, which made her sound as though she really believed what she was saying
Clenching her fists, J said through gritted teeth, "You were the one who started all those
rumors.Years have passed and we’re supposed to be more mature now.Haven’t you grown up yet?"
At the time, J had ignored what ine did because they were about to graduate.
There was no use getting worked up over such a trivial thing.

"How dare you use me of starting those rumors? Do you have any proof?"
ine couldn’t help but snicker at J’s stupidity.
They had graduated years ago.
Even if ine indeed was the one who spread the rumors, J had no evidence.
Moreover, the video didn’t show that ine deliberately framed J.
All the bystanders in the store watched this scene unfold with great interest.
Since the wallet was found in J’s pocket, surely she was the prime suspect.
"But she’s so pretty.I’d never have thought she was a thief!"
"You know what they say: you can’t judge a book by its cover."
Hearing their whispers, Christopher raised his head and cleared his throat loudly.
"The matter hasn’t been investigated thoroughly.Don’t draw conclusions just yet."
The manager couldn’t just let J go after what happened.
"Miss, store policy dictates that you have to pay ten times the price of what you stole.The wallet was
found in your pocket.You must pay us back, or we’ll call the police."
J looked at him, speechless.
Hesitating, she clutched her bag so tightly until her knuckles turned white.
Suddenly, she saw something at the corridor outside the store.
Turning around, she sneered smugly.
"Okay.Call the police."
ine’s eyes widened as she couldn’t believe her luck.
Snickering, she said arrogantly, "It sounds like you don’t have the money to pay for it.That’s probably
why you resorted to stealing, you poor thing."
ine nearly jumped with joy.
If J was sent to jail for shoplifting, her career would be ruined.
ine’s words undoubtedly smeared J’s name even further.
"I’m asking the manager to call the police precisely because I didn’t steal the wallet! Why do I have to
pay ten times the item’s price? I’ll wait for the police to deal with this matter."
J’s voice was clear, confident, and had no trace of fear.
But ine was unfazed.She firmly believed that J would be put behind bars.
Seeing J act as stubborn as a mule, she couldn’t help but sneer with satisfaction.
