Chapter 162: Suspicion

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

From the surveillance camera, Caroline was holding her phone with both hands, her head lowered as she looked at the GPS on her phone. On the other hand, Powell, who was on the phone and not paying attention to where he was going, turned around and bumped into her.

When the two of them collided, Caroline was not only holding onto the phone with both hands, but her back was also facing Powell. So, it was impossible for her to steal Powell’s things when the two of them collided, unless Caroline had a third hand.

After the two of them collided and separated, Caroline had only maintained a certain distance from Powell from the beginning to the end. Powell was the one who intentionally approached Caroline, while Caroline was avoiding him.

The truth was clear at a glance. Just like Caroline had claimed, her hand had never even gotten close to Mr. Powell from the beginning to the end, let alone steal his things.

Caroline put her hands on her hips and looked at Powell. “Now that the truth has been revealed, you should apologize to me, right?”

Powell’s face darkened. He pushed the security guards away without a word, not even looking at Caroline. Since the ‘Water Star’ was not stolen by the woman, it meant that the sapphire had been stolen before he met her.

From the time he left the wine cellar to the time he went to the parking lot, he had come into contact with no less than 50 people. So, how could he determine who was the murderer?

The woman had been cleared of suspicion, so he had to find the Water Star sapphire now. He only had less than two days. If he couldn’t find the gemstone within this time limit, he would be in deep trouble.

In the security room, when she saw that Powell had left without saying a word,

Caroline kicked the table in anger. “Who’s that?”

The hotel manager, who was still watching the surveillance, suddenly asked, “Miss, may I ask why you are holding your phone with both hands? Besides, the terrain around here isn’t complicated. Logically speaking, it should be easy to find the route with the GPS. Why did you stay in the parking lot for so long?”

Caroline rolled her eyes at him. “Why are you suspecting me too? I like to hold the phone with both hands. Can’t I type more conveniently? As for why I stayed in your parking lot for so long, I also want to ask you. As the hotel manager, don’t you know how bad the signal is in your parking lot?”

The hotel manager was embarrassed after hearing Caroline’s words.

Indeed, he had heard the hotel staff and guests complain about this before, but he thought that it didn’t matter whether there was signal in the parking lot or not, so he didn’t care.

“I’m very sorry. Our hotel’s service is not good enough. I’ve caused you trouble.” The hotel manager pushed up his glasses. “May I know which direction you’re heading to? I can ask my staff to take you out.”

Caroline looked at him speechlessly. “I was going to the bus stop nearby. I finally found the place, but your people brought me back.”

Seeing that the hotel manager wanted to ask more questions, Caroline interrupted him and said, “Yes, yes, yes. I guess you’ll ask me why I have to go through the parking lot. It’s because the bus stop is right behind your hotel. I checked the GPS and it said that if I go out from the main entrance, I have to go around the road and go one block away. If I go through the back door of your hotel’s parking lot, I can save more than ten minutes of travel.”

“This is indeed the case.” It seemed that the little girl was not lying. The hotel manager apologized to her again.

Caroline waved her hand. “Forget it. It’s my bad luck to have bumped into someone I shouldn’t have. Your hotel is innocent. I can’t be bothered to make things difficult for you.”

Under the hotel manager’s gaze, Caroline arrived at the bus stop and boarded bus 39, heading to the city center.

She went to the most prosperous business street, found a few jewelry stores, and finally chose a pair of cufflinks. Then she went to a men’s store and chose a tie.

After coming out of the mall, Caroline went to a famous dessert house next door to buy two cakes. Then, she took a taxi back to the villa.

While Caroline was shopping at the mall, Will Sr. suddenly received an anonymous message in the toy store. There were only five words on it: The flock of sheep has entered the pen.

Will Sr. was so excited that he stood up from behind the counter.

He had originally thought that this mission was impossible for anyone in his hands to complete.

He didn’t expect that a woman would suddenly appear and give him such a big surprise. Moreover, she took the thing down in just a few days.

How powerful must she be to be able to do this?
