NovelAppChapter 231 Lucky for them, the new girl, Ms. Bennett, found the weak spot of Oscar. Who knew how much more money they would have lost otherwise! Is the gift ordered?” asked Hans Collins.
Julian respectfully responded, “The owner wasn't willing to sell. We've tried negotiating several times without success.” “Who's their guy?” “They say it's someone from the McMillan family,” replied Julian.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe McMillans were good buddies with the Collins. There's no way Hans Collins would risk falling out with them over a necklace worth thirty million.
He would have to pick another one.
Julian browsed the QY website again, and Hans Collins* eyes scan through the options, finally settling on a four—leaf clover necklace.
The four leaves were studded with top—grade green diamonds. It's a shame it's only worth two and a half million. It felt like it's not expensive enough. “That one,” Hans Collins said, handing the iPad back to him. “I'm going home for dinner with my sister tonight, so try to wrap up the important stuff this afternoon.” “Sure thing.” Julian selected a few more important documents and respectfully presented them to him. “Oh, by the way, boss, word's out that you're back in town. A bunch of folks want to have dinner with you in the next few days. When do you reckon,” “Blow them off.” Hans Collins felt he needs to make time to spend with his sister.
Meanwhile.
Oscar had been wailing in the station, proclaiming his innocence. He insisted the recording was done under Arabella’s threat and that all the evidence was fabricated by her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe's also crying out to see Kenneth in person, claiming he’s a long-time employee that Kenneth promoted. There's no way he would do anything to harm the Collins family! The new cop had never seen such a crybaby of an old man. He reported the situation to Kenneth.
Kenneth and Louisa happened to be passing by, and upon hearing this, they stormed into the interrogation room.
“Mr. Collins, you're finally here! | was about to bash my head against this wall, but then | thought, wouldn't that be just what the villain wants?” Oscar immediately knelt at Kenneth's feet, sobbing uncontrollably. “You have no idea; this new girl at the company is framing me.
I'm so bitter inside. | still remember the favor you did for me back in the day. How could | ever do anything to hurt the Collins family? To hurt you? She’s way out of line!” Oscar clung to Kenneth'’s feet, crying his eyes out. “Mr. Collins, you have to save me! No one else can clear my name All it takes is a word from you. That's the girl who walked in just now!” “So you're saying my precious daughter is framing you? You want her to go to jail?” Louisa’s face was cold, radiating an air of aloof elegance. Upon hearing “precious daughter”, Oscar was dumbstruck and thought he had heard wrong.
“You've misunderstood. | was talking about that girl from the company.” Not Serena! “She is my precious daughter. My own flesh and blood.” Hearing Louisa's words, Oscar's jaw dropped, and he was too stunned to even continue his crying fit.
Wasn't that girl called Arabella? Weren't Kenneth and Louisa’s children named Serena?
