Chapter 332
Aureliaâs only hope was that Kimberly would say something out of respect for Young Advertising. She turned to look at Kimberly.
Kimberlyâs expression was solemn as she said, âAurelia, youâve gone too far this time. Even if you want to retaliate against Ms. Hank for bossing you around, you shouldnât mess with other peopleâs things! I canât help you this time.â
Aurelia wasnât surprised at all by Kimberlyâs words. Kimberly had always been critical of her and would never lend her a hand. Aurelia tensed up and was unable to respond to her words.
Eva pressed on aggressively, âAurelia, there are witnesses and evidence. How do you plan to justify yourself? Or do you want to discuss how youâre going to compensate for 50 million?â
Aurelia bit her lip nervously as Eva continued berating her.
âCanât you afford it? Itâs your fault for being careless. I really donât understand why Young Advertising would employ someone like you. Itâs just their luck. If you donât pay
Iâll call the police right now,â Eva threatened.
up,
Kimberly hurried forward to blame Aurelia, saying, âMs. Hanks, this is entirely Aureliaâs doing. It doesnât represent the company. Our company has always approached your company with a friendly and serious attitude toward cooperation. We would never resort to retaliatory behavior.â
âKimberly, do you take me for a fool? Given the circumstances, how can I believe this
isnât something your company instructed Aurelia to do? I canât possibly work with you. people,â Eva sneered.
Kimberly immediately took out her phone. âOur company has always been fair and impartial. Iâll call Mr. Zeller right away to dismiss Aurelia. It wonât affect the cooperation between our companies,â she said quickly.
Evaâs silence indicated her approval of Kimberlyâs proposal.
It was at this moment that Aurelia snapped out of her daze and stepped forward to stop Kimberly.
âWait a minute, the matter hasnât been investigated thoroughly yet. Why should I be blamed for damaging the necklace?â Aurelia demanded.
Eva laughed. âListen to what sheâs saying. We all saw it. Is she still asking this kind of question?â
Aurella took a deep breath and said calmly, âMs. Hanks, I did see a wire here. If you think Iâm making excuses, then the scene should be thoroughly examined before any accusation is made toward me.

âAlso, you were the one who insisted that I fetch the briefcase. This indicates that knew in advance there were valuable items in it. However, you didnât inform me about it. And why would the briefcase open so easily? Isnât that strange?â
The briefcase had a combination lock, and there were soft pads inside to secure the necklace. Even if the necklace fell from a certain height, the briefcase shouldnât have opened so easily.
Yet, all it took was for Aurelia to stumble and the briefcase flew open, causing the necklace to fall out. The situation was too coincidental.
âWhat are you implying, Aurelia? Do I have to tell everyone we were carrying a 50 million dollar necklace? Are you suggesting that we are trying to frame you?â Eva retorted.
×××.
âSince you asked me to get it, donât I have the right to know whatâs inside?â Aurelia shot
back.
Eva sneered, âWhy you⦠Is that the tone youâre going to use when facing a client? Youâll either be fired or taken to the police station today.â
âEither way, youâll compensate for the 50 million, with or without your cooperation. I have plenty of witnesses,â Eva said indifferently with a smile, confident that Aurelia was powerless.
Aurelia glanced around as everyone stared at her, each condemning her with their eyes.
It was almost as though they were saying, âWhy would you provoke Ms. Hanks? You got
us into this mess.
âItâs so annoying. Someone just came along and ruined our work,â a staff complained.
Someone else shook their head in disappointment. âDamn, thatâs just my luck. We are all getting scolded when we get back.â
Though they didnât say it out loud, the messages in their eyes seemed to pierce through Aurelia all the same.
She clenched her fists to maintain her composure.

âYou have three minutes to think, or Iâm calling the police. The destruction of othersâ property worth 50 million would be quite a big crime,â Eva urged as she curled her lips. with a sharp glint in her eyes.
This action indicated to Aurelia that there was more to the story. However, no one dared to oppose Eva. The wire that tripped her was also somehow gone. What else could she do?
