His love

Chapter 291

Matthew snorted, his once gentle countenance now etched with severity.

“Mr. Nightingale, can someone who relied on financial support from others truly be Innocent?

“Listen, Mr. Nightingale, the most deceptive feature of a woman is her appearance. Don’t let a seemingly pure and innocent face fool you. I don’t believe Willow is Innocent. But if she proves me wrong, I’ll let her

have her way with me!“.

“Eric, pull up the footage!” lan instructed.

He had been anticipating those words from Matthew.

lan was fascinated by human interactions. Despite this being their first meeting, he felt an inexplicable trust toward Willow. He saw her as a rare, untainted figure in a world riddled with corruption.

His trust in her was like a puzzle that even his highly regarded intellect couldn’t solve. Yet, he found pleasure in this enigma.

Renowned for his efficiency, Eric swiftly retrieved the footage from the wardrobe room and uploaded it to the video player connected to the large LCD screen in the hall. As the player turned on, the scene from the wardrobe room was displayed on the screen.

The footage showed Willow entering the changing room to switch outfits. She had hung her handbag on a rack just outside the changing room. Wilhelmina’s handbag sat on a nearby table.

Willow was the last person to step into the changing room. By then, almost everyone had left for the hall, leaving the wardrobe room deserted.

Just as it seemed Willow might use this opportunity to steal the bracelet from Wilhelmina’s bag, the door to the wardrobe room, which was ajar, suddenly swung open wide. Janet slipped in, looking extremely

suspicious.

Janet’s expression shifted dramatically when she saw herself on the LCD screen.

Forgetting to maintain her elegance, she shouted anxiously, “Turn it off! Turn it off, now!”

Yet, no one paid any attention.

As the video continued, Janet grew more and more panicked. She stood up, ready to rush over and stop the player. Yet, Eric politely and firmly stood in her way, stopping her from reaching the LCD screen.

The rest of the people in the hall quickly understood the events, as Janet’s actions only made them more suspicious. They focused even more on the screen to confirm their suspicions.

After ensuring the wardrobe room was deserted, Janet tiptoed inside. She quickly retrieved the emerald bracelet from Wilhelmina’s bag and placed it into Willow’s bag.

In the footage, everyone saw Janet slip the bracelet into Willow’s bag and fold a stack of papers before tucking them in. She then carefully zipped up Willow’s bag.

Chapte

Willow’s bag was quite large, so the added items didn’t make it look unusual. When Willow emerged from the changing room, she was unaware of the extra contents In her bag. She casually took her bag and left the wardrobe room.

The footage on the screen cut off, but Janet’s anxious voice was still audible.

“It’s not what it looks like! That’s not what happened!”

The video had just finished playing, but the female celebrities in the hall continued to stare at the now- dark screen with disbelief written all over their faces. After a brief, stunned silence, the hall erupted into furious grumbles.

“How could this happen? We’ve all been so harsh on Willow, calling her shameless, but the real culprit

was someone else!” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“This is unbelievable. She acted so righteous, yet she was secretly setting someone else up. Yuck, this is quite an eye–opener!”

“I think the person who should be banned isn’t Willow, but Janet, that shameless schemer. She was sitting right next to me. How disgusting!”
