Chapter 840 His Cold Gaze Seemed To Be Mocking Her
However, Queenie was on the fence about how to react. She believed that Ms. Lang was telling thetruth.
After all, Ms. Lang has been working hard for the Norman family for so many years. She had never liedbefore.
Despite this, when she gazed at Leia who could not stop crying, looking so sad and aggrieved,Queenie's heart softened. The suspicion in her heart began to melt away.
In the end, she grabbed Leia's shoulders and sighed. "Leia, tell me honestly. What’s the truth of thematter involving Ms. Lang?"
Leia wiped her tears with her sleeves and coughed a little before saying sadly, "Mom, the diamondnecklace you gave me went missing. I searched everywhere and couldn't find it, but I eventually foundit in Ms. Lang's handbag... If she didn't steal my necklace, how would it have ended up in her bag? Ifyou don’t believe me, I can show you the evidence. The photos and video clearly show that thenecklace was found in Ms. Lang's bag in her room..."
Queenie looked at Ms. Lang sternly. "Ms. Lang, is that true?"
Ms. Lang trembled and rubbed her hands to calm herself as she said, "Mrs. Norman, Ms. Leia did findthe necklace in my bag, but I swear to God, I didn't take it. I don’t know why it appeared in my bag..."
Ms. Lang could not stop tearing up as she explained herself.
She was overwhelmed by fear and was on the brink of having a breakdown.
Bianca stared at the scene in front of her with great interest. One was Ms. Lang, who was aggrievedand would do anything to prove her innocence. The other was Leia, who was pretending to be a victimand insisting that Ms. Lang was a thief.
Compared to the cunning and cruel Leia, she chose to believe in Ms. Lang.
When she noticed that Queenie was still hesitating, Bianca said, "Mom, since there are two versions ofthis story, why don't we let the police be the judge? The diamond necklace is worth a lot, and one ofthem has to be lying. Although the matter happened a while back and it may be difficult to obtain anyuseful evidence, I believe that the police will be able to tell us the truth. I think that's fair, yes?"
Call the police?!
Leia panicked a little, but she realized that it would be impossible for the police to find anything since itwas so long ago.
What was more, when she framed Ms. Lang, she had made sure to clean up all the evidence.
Leia was confident that she had covered her tracks well.
She stared at Bianca contemptuously and said in a neutral tone, "Okay, since you don't believe me,let's call the police so that I can be proved innocent. Mom, if Ms. Lang stole my diamond necklace, thepolice will have to arrest her. The Norman family will never allow any thieves in our home." "I... I..."
Ms. Lang was in a daze. She felt helpless eyes and looked at Bianca imploringly. "Ms. Bianca, I didn'tsteal Ms. Leia's necklace. Can you not involve the police?"
Bianca gently held Ms. Lang's trembling hands and said softly, "Ms. Lang, don't worry. If you'reinnocent, the police will do you right. Trust me."
Bianca's eyes were gentle and firm like a dazzling warm light that comforted Ms. Lang's anxious heart.novelbin
Jack Norman's majestic brows were tightly furrowed throughout the ordeal, but at that moment, heseemed to look much older.
He did not speak and kept smoking. The smoke from the cigarette soon filled the living room.
Luke was smoking beside him.
He ashed his cigarette and glanced at Leia. He said coldly, "No matter what, I'm sure that Wayne Blatthas something to do with Ms. Leia. Father- in-law, Mother-in-law, I only have one request. If this matteris indeed related to Ms. Leia, I hope you can handle it fairly and without any favoritism." "Uh..." Queenielooked at Jack Norman with uncertainty, hoping he could say something.
However, her husband kept quiet. Queenie shook her head, feeling helpless.
Luke's cold gaze made Leia feel like she was trapped in an ice cellar.
However, his eyes were just like magnets, attracting others to fall for him.
His gaze seemed to be full of mockery and contempt.
Leia was uncomfortable being stared at by him. She felt as though this man could see through her.
She was uneasy and not sure how to react. She felt like a criminal under scrutiny.
The man's powerful gaze almost took her breath away.
In the end, she decided to scream and defend herself, "Luke, what do you mean by that? We're talkingabout Ms. Lang, why are you shifting the focus to me? I admit that I was blind before and fell madly inlove with you, but you deceived my feelings together with my so-called sister. You were engaged to me,but you were secretly involved with her. You were even living together! How shameless! Do you think of
me like a monkey? I haven't received any apologies for that! Mom, look, your daughter and herhusband are bullying me again. And you're doing nothing..." i "Leia, calm down."
Queenie looked at Leia who seemed to have lost her mind. She knew that it was because Leia’s sorespot regarding Bianca and Luke getting married was being poked at.
She took Leia's arm and sighed. "You have to let go of this matter. Bianca and Luke are in love, no onecan get in between them. You and Luke were never meant to be. I think you need some rest. Youshould rest in your room, okay?"
Leia shook her hand off and said stubbornly, "I don't want to rest. I won’t rest until I prove myinnocence!"
Queenie was doing everything to calm Leia. "Leia, go upstairs. I trust you and understand that you're ina tough spot... Let's have the police solve this matter."
After some coaxing, Queenie brought Leia to her bedroom on the second floor.
However, when she looked back, she met Bianca and Luke's mocking, judgemental gazes. Leia's heartskipped a beat.
She was just hoping that she could get out of this in one piece.

Luke handed Jason a thick pile of documents that showed all the terrible things Leia had been involvedwith. He got him to send it to his in-laws, i
Then, he made a secret phone call to Percy Mallory and Jim Holston about Wayne Blatt's whereabouts.
The call took half an hour.
As soon as Luke opened his laptop to look at his emails, he heard a crisp sound of high heels...
