Chapter 1966
"Don’t you know why I hit you in the toilet?” Isabel argued. "You and your friends surrounded her and tried to bully her. If I wasn’t there, you people would've bullied her.”
Caprice wore a frosty expression and echoed. "Yeah. I ran into them when I was in the toilet. I don't want to argue with them, so I tried to avoid them. But they stopped me and even pinched my face.”
She clearly remembered what happened earlier.
Sherry and John reacted coldly to their daughter's explanation.
Heather immediately argued, "No! I was just trying to say hi! I didn’t bully her!"
“Let's put this aside first,” Sherry said. She then looked at Mrs. Duwait and asked, "Mrs. Duwait, can I inspect your worker?"
She looked at Beverly and continued, “I want to know why someone is targeting my daughter.”
Upon hearing her words, both Sophia and Heather shuddered again.
Mrs. Duwait nodded firmly. "Not a problem.”
A worker brought over some chairs for John and Caprice to sit down.
Odell, Sylvia, and Isabel also sat down beside them.
Mr. and Mrs. Duwait sat in front of them.
In front of all of them was Beverly with her head down.
Sherry asked, "1 believe you don't know my daughter, and she has done nothing to you before. Tell me why you accuse her of stealing.”
"l...L." Beverly stammered and could not form a complete sentence.
Mrs. Duwait intervened and said, "Beverly, if you don't explain yourself, I'll have to hand you over to the police. This piece of diamond is worth eight hundred million and you'll have to spend the rest of your life behind bars.”
Beverly was already nervous when she was exposed and when she heard she might have to go to jail, she collapsed on the ground with a thud.
"I-It's Mrs. Mason. She asked for my help and she promised to bring me into the entertainment industry. She also promised to make me the biggest star.”
The crowd gasped in awe.
Even Caprice was shocked.
Mrs. Mason? Heather's mother, Sophia?
It was still Heather after all.
Caprice glared at Heather and Sophia; Sherry and John did the same.
Horrified, Sophia screamed, "Nonsense! I don’t even know you!"
Heather hid behind her mother but she called out to Beverly as well, "My mother doesn't know you or Caprice. You're trying to slander us!"
Beverly did not expect them to cut ties with her. A momentary shock later, she explained, "I have the transfer record! Mrs. Mason promised me fifty thousand if I agreed to help her.” She pulled her phone out and showed Mrs. Duwait the transfer record from Sophia.
Mrs. Duwait had a glance before she gave it to Sherry.
An hour ago, Sophia transferred fifty thousand to Beverly's bank account.
Not only that, she even added Beverly and texted her, "Beverly, I assure you you'll become the biggest star after this.”
Sherry scoffed and looked at Sophia.
Sophia's face was as pale as paper. "It's not me! She's accusing me!”
It was then Roman stepped out from the crowd and slapped Sophia on the face.
Sophia was sent to the ground with blood trickling from the edge of her lips.
She looked at Roman in shock.
Furious, Roman glared at her. “You fool! Not only did you spend my money lavishly, but you even disgrace me at Mr. and Mrs. Duwait's estate! You embarrass me!” 2
He also shouted, "Get up and apologize to Mr. and Mrs. Stockton!"
Sophia was stunned for a moment before she realized what happened.
