Chapter 765: Chapter 765: Can we take a look at your bag?
Enna Clark wasn’t deaf, of course she heard Jasmine Clark accusing her of ‘stealing’.
She frowned but said nothing.
Connor Ford had already brought Jasmine over.
As an internationally renowned director, Connor had seen it all and recognized some figures from both realms of black and white. Upon laying eyes on Enna for the first time, he had already begun to assess her identity.
Despite being at the banquet, Enna hadn’t dressed like the majority of the women present who were decked out like butterflies. She wore a simple flowing white suit, with the trousers designed slightly flared at the bottom which made them look a bit like a skirt, not losing an ounce of the suit’s swag. Her entire outfit, though not as stunning as Jasmine revealing her back, was particularly comfortable.
In particular, it meshed perfectly with her own comfortable appearance. Compared to the instant shock factor of a red dress, her outfit was dignified and elegant, growing on you the more you saw it!
Before Connor and Jasmine could say anything, Jacob Clark reproached first, “Did you take someone else’s ring?”
Enna couldn’t be bothered to respond.
She didn’t even look at him, directing her gaze instead at the person who claimed to have lost her ring after bumping into each other. The flashy features, the slender and hot body…even though Enna had never seen this face before, it gave her a familiar feeling.
She couldn’t put a finger on why she felt this familiarity until now.
Thanks to the accusation, she finally realized!
Those eyes… they reminded her so much of one person – Jasmine!
But wasn’t Jasmine in prison? How could she be here? And Jasmine didn’t look like this…
Jasmine suddenly felt a vague sense of guilt at seeing Jacob here, but remembering that he has not yet seen her post-surgery face, she calmed down, anxiously addressed Enna first, “Miss, have you seen my ring?”
“Didn’t we accidentally collide in the restroom? I realized my ring was missing.”
She didn’t directly accuse Enna of stealing her ring, but she made it pretty clear that her ring went missing after they bumped into each other in the restroom! Then the only person who could have stolen the ring must be Enna!
The onlookers’ gaze fell on Enna with deep interest.
Facing all the scrutinizing gazes, Enna remained undisturbed, calmly saying, “I didn’t see your ring, and I only have one ring on my hand.”
Indeed, she only had one ring on her hand. A very simple one, plain to the point of austerity. Looking at Jasmine’s extravagant dress, everyone knew this silver ring could not possibly be the one Jasmine mentioned.
Connor frowned his eyebrows and cast his eyes onto the bag Enna was carrying, suddenly he asked in a deep voice, “Miss, could you please show us what’s inside your bag?”
Look inside her bag?
Enna suddenly remembered the incident where she was bumped and her bag fell to the ground. Looking at the woman who seemed like Jasmine with anticipation painted all over her face, Enna understood everything.
The ring must be in her bag!
It was no accident, it was purposely put into her bag, ready to catch a thief red-handed!
Previously, she had a tiny bit of uncertainty, but now, she was beginning to seriously suspect if this unfamiliar woman in front of her was actually Jasmine!
Because such manipulative means and the feeling this woman gave off were just so much like Jasmine!
In the period she was lost in her thoughts, the silent admission to the others ignited whispers amongst the crowd.
