85 The Truth
“This is indeed a problem.” Joline thought for a moment and didn’t want to argue with a silly boy, so she said, “If that’s the case, why don’t you go back and make a note? List down all the mistakes that Caroline has done one by one. If you have seen it with your own eyes, cross it out.”
George immediately agreed. “Sure, I’ll list it out for you right away. Then, you’ll know how many bad things Caroline, this evil woman, has done!”
“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you.” Joline was still thinking about the jewelry she was going to wear during the engagement, so she quickly waved him off.
George rushed back to his study room, took out a piece of A4 paper, and began to write. Ten minutes later, he racked his brain and wrote down everything. Then he began to check the boxes.
!!
Caroline had stolen before. Alright, this one had been proven to be fake.
Caroline had once pushed Kelly down the stairs. Well, he had heard this from others and had not seen it with his own eyes.
Caroline had once bullied Kelly in public and tried to snatch her bracelet. This one was real! He was also present at the time! George was about to put a big cross at the end, but he suddenly hesitated and did not write.
Back then, everyone said that Caroline was vain, petty, and greedy, which was why she stole Kelly’s jewelry. However, if Caroline was really such a person, why would she be so generous as to donate billions of dollars without even blinking?
George put down his pen and walked around the room a few times. In the end, he slumped on the chair in frustration. “So, why did Caroline snatch Kelly’s bracelet back then?”
George, who couldn’t figure it out, decided to stop thinking about it. He found Caroline’s phone number and called her. He had saved it when he helped her move.
“Hey, why did you snatch the emerald bracelet from Kelly?”
Caroline was in the middle of her physical training when she suddenly received a call from George. After she picked up the call, the other party asked her this question for no reason.
“An emerald bracelet?” Caroline took a deep breath and caught her breath. Then, she recalled this incident from her original body’s memories.
“Because the bracelet was mine,” she answered, puzzled as to why George would ask such a question.
“Impossible!” George denied it. “Kelly said that the bracelet was a gift from your father!”
“Summer Star.” Caroline took a towel and wiped the sweat on her head and neck. “This is the name of the bracelet. You can go and check it out.”
“I’ll investigate.” George hung up the phone.
The Anderson family owned a jewelry shop, an auction house, a pawnshop, and an underground auction house. So, with George’s order, the information about Summer Star was quickly placed in front of him.
‘Summer Star’ was a paraiba tourmaline bracelet that was designed and made by a famous designer twelve years ago. It was won at an auction house by Helena Lambert, Caroline’s mother.
The note also mentioned that after Helena had won the bid for the bracelet, she had asked the designer to carve the three letters “C. L.” on the bracelet, meaning “Caroline Lambert”, as a present for Caroline’s sixth birthday.
George pursed his lips and wondered if there was a mistake. For example, she had snatched another bracelet.
However, the design of the bracelet was really beautiful, so even he couldn’t help but take a few more glances at it at that time. He had some impression of it, and it was exactly the same as the “Summer Star” in the photo.
So, Kelly really stole the bracelet that Caroline’s mother gave her and wore it. That was why Caroline snatched it back in front of everyone, without caring about her reputation?
George was a little embarrassed. He was embarrassed that he was fooled, and he was also angry that Caroline didn’t explain herself clearly!
So, he called Caroline. “Why didn’t you explain clearly that it was your bracelet!”
Caroline found it funny and sorrowful at the same time. “Because you didn’t give me a chance to explain.”
George immediately recalled what had happened. Back then, Caroline had just been exposed for stealing her classmate’s bracelet. When they heard Kelly’s shouts, they rushed over and saw Caroline trying to snatch Kelly’s bracelet. They all thought that she had failed and had openly stolen it. So, they didn’t give her a chance to speak and chased her out of the party.
George’s tongue was tied, and his face turned red. He mumbled for a while before he found his voice. “So later, there were rumors that you stole her necklace. Was that also yours?”
