Chapter 444 The Bug Was Exposed
Howard, who saw Julie winking at him, pondered for a moment and then said, "Let''s discuss it again
after we find Mr. Shi."
"Okay." Sam nodded. "Let''s wait for him then."
He originally wanted to use this opportunity to cancel the marriage. Julie''s wink didn’t escape his
notice. However, he’d never expected that Vivian would be this stubborn.
It seemed that she really did like John.
Unfortunately, her feelings were one-sided.
Love was something that couldn''t be forced.
The two of them had known each other since they were children. To John, Vivian was an exception, but
despite her being a kind of special existence in his eyes for years, he never once fell in love with her.
Both Vivian and Nina were people special to John,
but how they were special for him was different.
The one John fell in love with was Nina, and he would never love anyone else.
"John will be fine. He’ll surely be fine," Vivian mumbled in distraught, holding onto her mother''s hand
tightly.
''John, you muste back safe and sound.
I''ll wait for him toe back no matter how long it’ll take.''
Jessica couldn’t help but feel touched by the genuine concern in Vivian''s expression. She moved to sit
next to her, held her hand, and said in an appeasing tone, "Rest assured, John will be fine."
"Yes, he’ll be fine." Vivian echoed with a forced smile.
Despite the troubled state of its upants, the banquet hall was still giving off a warm vibe. Today was
supposed to be John’s wedding day, so Jessica hade all dolled up. She was wearing a light-
colored dress adorned with a well-matched ne around her neck.
When Dora, who had always been quite perceptive when it came to clothing and jewelry, saw the
ne, she couldn’t help but praise, "Aunt, your ne is really beautiful."
The others didn''t even turn to look. Their whole focus was on John’s rescue.
Chester had noticed the ne and wanted to expose Vivian from the moment he saw it. However,
John told him that the time wasn’t right. Her bad deeds could only be exposed after John had an
ident and all reporters left the venue.
Their family and Vivian’s had a tight, mutually beneficial rtionship now, so they mustn’t air their dirty
The head of the Ye family was Howard, and the people in charge of the Ye family''s business were
Noah and Henry. For their rtionships to turn sour for an insignificant Vivian was just not worth it.
Since Dora mentioned the ne, Chester must use this opportunity well to expose Vivian’s true
colors. With that thought in mind, he asked, "Aunt, have you gotten yourself a new ne?"
"Ne?" The voice belonged not to Jessica, but to Julie.
Chester’s sudden appearance flustered both Julie and Vivian. Now, his question practically made them
break out in cold sweats.
Vivian gulped nervously,menting over how a new problem popped up before the previous one was
solved.
"Mrs. Ye, is there something wrong?" asked Jessica, who was baffled by Julie''s reaction.
Upon seeing Vivian''s warning nce, Julie regained herposure. With a stiff smile, she said, "It’s
nothing. Your ne is indeed exquisite."
"Yes, it is," Jessica answered absentmindedly and once again fixated her gaze on the river outside the
window.
A crane was slowly pulling the car out of the river.
While everyone else was looking at the scene outside the window, Chester fumbled for something in
his pocket. Both Julie and Vivian, whose eyes never left him even for a second since he mentioned
Jessica’s ne, felt like their hearts missed a beat.
"Vivi, your face seems a little red now. Did you perhaps catch a cold?" Julie winked at her daughter and
hurriedly tried to divert everyone’s attention.
Vivian naturally understood what her mother meant. She touched her forehead and said weakly, "Well,
now that you mention it, I do feel a little dizzy."
"You do? Did you really catch a cold?" Julie nervously raised her hand to touch Vivian''s forehead. A
split secondter, she yelped in surprise, "Oh my God! You’re burning!"
"I am? I didn''t really notice. I felt a little dizzy, but I thought it was because I was worried about John."
Vivian frowned, rubbed her temples, and put her head on Julie’s shoulder.
"Mom, this is bad. I think I’ve caught a cold for real." Vivian''s acting was amazing. Even her voice
sounded feeble.
She sessfully made it look like she was really sick.
"What''s wrong?" Howard turned to look at his daughter. The concern in his eyes and tone was genuine.
"Do you have a headache?"
"Yes." Vivian rubbed her forehead.
Julie hurriedly said, "Honey, I think we should take Vivi to the doctor first."
"You’re right. It won’t be funny if something happens to the bride after everything that happened to the
groom." Howard stood up from his chair.
Jessica piped in with a tone full of concern, "Your dad’s right. Go to the doctor and have yourself
examined first. Young people really do go to any lengths for beauty. It’s winter now, and yet you’re
wearing such a thin wedding dress to look pretty."
Vivian smiled sheepishly. "All brides want to look pretty on their wedding day, but I have to admit—this
wasn’t a wise decision."
As Howard excused himself to take Vivian to the hospital, Julie helped her up and led her towards the
door.
They didn''t know what Chester was going to do next. Their best option now was to go back.
Regardless of whether Vivian was really sick or not, Chester took out the previous ne and gave it
to Jessica.
"Aunt, I''ve fixed your ne for you, but I found that there is a micro bug in it."
Julie and Vivian froze. What Chester said struck them dumb like lightning would''ve done. Their feet
were as heavy as concrete. They couldn''t take even another step no matter how hard they tried.
It had never once crossed their minds that Chester would go straight to the point like this.
They were caught totally off-guard.

Chester''s words attracted everyone''s attention. Sam turned to look at him, and Howard also stopped in
his tracks.
Jessica stared nkly at the ne in his hand, asking incredulously, "What micro bug?"
Sandra walked to her son, bent over, and said, "Chester, don''t spout nonsense or make groundless
remarks."
"I’m not talking nonsense, and it’s not a groundless remark. I have evidence." Chester nodded
seriously.
Her son had never lied, so Sandra believed him. "In that case, you should show the evidence to us."
"Okay." Chester nced at everyone for a moment, and his eyes eventually stopped on Ang. "Aunt,
could you please lend me your brooch?"
"Sure, here." Ang took off her brooch and gave it to him.
Dora walked over and asked curiously, "Is it really bugged? Who did it?"
Both Julie and Vivian were drenched in cold sweats.
The two of them didn''t dare to look back, but Vivian knew that Chester wanted to use the brooch to
open the crack on the ne.
Back then, she had someone create a tiny crack on the pendant and put the micro bug in.
Vivian pretended to faint in her mother''s arms, in for a penny and in for a pound.
"Vivi! Vivi!" Julie was also a smart woman. She reacted quickly and caught her daughter in her
embrace. "Honey, Vivi fainted! Let’s go, we have to bring her to the hospital, now!"
Howard’s attention was drawn away in an instant. He anxiously went straight to his daughter, picked
her up, and said apologetically, "Please excuse us. We have to take our daughter to the hospital."
Right at that moment, Chester managed to open the crack in the ne and picked out a tiny chip.
"Aunt, I''ve checked this matter thoroughly. The bug wasn’t installed by the designer. The one who put it
was the person who gave you the ne."
"Vivi?!" Jessica was stunned. She shifted her gaze towards the three people near the door and raised
her voice. "Vivi gave me the ne."
Everyone present heard what she said. They too looked towards the door.
Both Howard and Julie stopped walking at the same time.
