THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1026

"In the top right corner of my bed curtain, there's a micro-camera," Caitlin said calmly. "Although its view is limited to my own bed, since the necklace was found there, I believe how it got there was captured very clearly."

Caitlin was not one to be caught unprepared. She had known from the start that Charis was malicious. It was always wise to guard against petty people.

Just in case, she had installed a tiny camera on her bed curtain on her second day of school. It was a way to protect herself without invading the privacy of her other roommates. She just hadn't expected to actually need it.

At Caitlin's words, Charis's expression flickered.

What? A camera? Caitlin actually had a camera on her bed?

Charis had only considered that cameras weren't allowed inside the dorm room itself, so no one could prove she was the one who planted the necklace. It had never occurred to her that Caitlin would be bored enough to install a camera to monitor herself.

What now? What should she do?

Charis felt her legs tremble. That necklace was worth two hundred thousand dollars. If Caitlin really had a recording, she was finished. With the power of the Gonzales and Richards families, she was doomed.

But she forced herself to stay calm. "It had to be a lie. It had to be. Caitlin was just bluffing. She had no evidence to clear her name, so she was trying to make me panic and confess. Ridiculous. Did she think she could scare me so easily? I wouldn't fall for it."

With that thought, Charis's nerves settled.

"A camera, you say? Well, that's even better!" Charis challenged. "If you have the guts, go get the footage right now. I'd love to see who really 'stole' the necklace and put it on your bed!"
