The Betrayed Heiress Is Now the CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70

Charlotte smiled sweetly and handed her bag to Wendy. “Here you go. If you want to search it, be my guest.”

Wendy hesitated for a split second, caught off guard by how calm and open Charlotte was being.

Could she have discovered the bracelet and removed it?

Wendy narrowed her eyes in suspicion, glancing up at Charlotte–only to see that same serene, almost unreadable smile playing on her lips. Something about it

felt off

The bag was now right in front of her.

Hot Wendy hesitated. Something told her Charlotte had set a trap and she was about to walk right into it.

She was still debating what to do when Monica suddenly snatched the bag from Charlotte’s hands. She unzipped it in one swift motion, turned it upside down, and dumped everything out onto the floor.

A Van Cleef & Arpels blue agate bracelet tumbled out and landed at Monica’s feet..

She picked it up and snapped, “Still claiming you didn’t steal it? Then what’s this? And this Chanel bag–don’t tell me you stole that too!”

Gasps rippled through the crowd.

Wendy finally let out the breath she had been holding. The bracelet had fallen out. She had slipped it in earlier through the side opening of the bag’s zipper. Thank god Charlotte hadn’t noticed

Just as Wendy was about to pounce, the crowd suddenly parted on its own

A tall figure strode through with a cold expression.

Steven Sullivan

He frowned “stealing? What’s going on here?”

Someone actually had the nerve to steal in the Sullivan estate?

They must have a death wiSİL

Mr. Sullivan, it’s her!” Wendy pointed at Charlotte, her voice rising in righteous anger. “She stole my bracelet! You must do something about this!”

Steven followed Wendy’s pointing finger and locked eyes with Charlotte.

She smiled and waved, her tone light and familiar. “Hey, Cousin

Silence

Absolute silence.

Every whisper, every breath in the room disappeared in an instant

Then, Charlotte casually broke the dead alr

She pointed at the bracelet Monica was holding and tilted her head in mock confusion. “Steven, they’re saying I stole that. They even searched my bag in front of everyone. Tell me, would I really bother with something so cheap and tacky?”

Wendy’s face went witte. Her body stiffened. She took two steps back, stunned, staring at Charlotte like she was seeing a ghost.

“you. You’re Mr. Sullivan’s cousin?”

Behind Steven, Zacfioze.

The gift box in his hand slipped to the floor, the plak diamond necklace spilling out as it hit the ground

He had just heard Charlotte call Steven “cousin” with his owners.

In that moment, his mind went blank. It was like all the blood in his body had frezen. His vision darkened. He could barely stay on his feet.

Charlotte said something else to Steven, but Zac couldn’t hear a word. Everything had gone silent. Even the sounds around him faded–his ears singing with Madden deatness.

Monica looked like she had seen a ghost. “No No way! That’s impossible! How could you be Mr. Sullivan’s cousin? You’re just a housekeeper’s daughter!”

Culotte leaned back on the couch, crossed her legs, rested her chin in her land, and unile at Monica “sorry to disappoint you.”

Steven finally realized what was going on

They were accusing Charlotte of stealing
