Female NovelEvan’s face turned pale. He nervously glanced at William and swallowed. “Well… Really? I wasshooting at a nearby filming site, so I can’t remember it that clearly. Maybe her handbag was in thesouth corner, but I do remember seeing you take something from it…”
“But, as far as I can tell, from where you were at that time, you couldn’t have seen the south corner ofthe filming site I was in. So how did you see it?”
“Well. . ..I was in a hurry to use the restroom and happened to pass by.novelbin
Sabrina laughed out loud. “Evan, have you forgotten? The back wall of the filming site I was in is righton the south side, and it’s very easy for something in the south corner to interfere with the shot.
So why would I let someone put something in the south corner?”
Evan’s forehead was covered with sweat. He opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
“William, I think it’s obvious. If my memory serves me right, there are surveillance cameras in thestudio. We can check the surveillance footage to uncover the truth. If you still don’t believe me, checkthe surveillance video yourself.”
“I trust you.” William cast a sullen look at Evan and then turned his gaze toward Keilani.
With a guilty conscience, Keilani looked away. Her anger and anxiety were palpable, directed as aglare at Evan.
It was Evan’s fault for giving false testimony. William was her friend and would have offered herunwavering support if she insisted Sabrina had stolen her necklace. But Evan’s false testimony hadcrumbled under Sabrina’s tactics in words.
“Evan, why did you slander Sabrina? You disappoint me. Apologize to Sabrina, this instant!” Williamdemanded with a gloomy face.
Evan, seething with frustration, clenched his fists and averted his gaze, choosing not to respond.
“Would you like me to pull up the surveillance footage?” William asked seriously, “Or do you want to befired? Making false accusations and refusing to apologize for your wrongdoings is not the behavior Iexpect from my employees. I won’t tolerate such actions.”
Gritting his teeth, Evan said reluctantly, “I’m sorry, Sabrina.”
“and?”
“I shouldn’t have accused you of stealing Keilani’s necklace without actually witnessing it. I apologize,”Evan admitted, lowering his head, mortified.
Everyone was staring at Evan. Evan wanted nothing more than the ground to swallow him up right thenand there. He didn’t want to imagine what William and Liliana thought of him from now on.
William looked at Sabrina and said, “Well, that’s it. Don’t mention it again.”
“Wait a minute. Keilani, you wrongfully slandered me for stealing your necklace and ruined myreputation. I believe you owe me an apology.” Sabrina stared at Keilani with her sharp eyes, unwillingto let the matter rest just yet.
Keilani, defiant and dismissive, snorted. “I did lose my necklace.
All I did was suspect you. I didn’t do anything to you. Apologize?
No way!”
Sabrina looked at William and asked pointedly, “Can a customer freely slander a photographer fromSaleel Studio without offering so much as an apology?”
