Chapter 370

Every tap felt like a death sentence to Eva. Her face turned pale even before she grasped. the consequences.

Eva licked her lips, her once stylishly tousled short hair now just looked like a mess. She gritted her teeth and stared at Aurelia. “Aurelia, you can’t…”

“I can. Just because I’m the one who owns the necklace now,” Aurelia said coldly. “Ms. Hanks, don’t forget, you and your colleagues confessed to Mr. Clark that you wanted to test me, so you let me handle the necklace. You’ve already broken the agreement.”

Upon hearing this, sweat began to form on Eva’s forehead.

But being familiar with the industry’s challenges, Eva promptly came up with an excuse for herself. “Even though I went against the agreement, how could I have known the necklace would be so fragile?

“Ultimately, it’s on you for being careless. You’re the main one to blame here. Since you. own the necklace now, you should deal with the consequences yourself.”

“Ms. Hanks, you really surprised me. Is your magazine publisher all about twisting the truth?” Aurelia sneered.

“Did I get it wrong? You’re the one who dropped the necklace, right? I never event

touched it.” Eva seemed to grasp the opportunity. Despite knowing she had broken the agreement, she still acted superior.

“You didn’t touch it, but what about Flora? She just happened to run into Mr. Clark outside, and I’m sure she spilled everything by now,” Aurelia remarked.

“I’m not scared. What could Flora possibly say?” Eva frowned.

Aurelia pointed out, “Ms. Hanks, can you please explain why I dropped the box, but it was. the necklace that ended up on the ground?

“Don’t tell me the bank’s safe deposit box isn’t secure. If you do, they’ll come asking for answers tomorrow. With so many VIP clients, who would trust the bank if their safe deposit box wasn’t secure?”

With Eva’s pressure bearing down on her, Aurelia spoke each word with conviction and Lorce, leaving Eva at a loss for words.

Actually, Leslie had told her all of this.

When they reviewed the CCTV and saw Flora opening the safe deposit box, Aurelia had a

lot of questions.

So Leslie explained the whole process of how the bank manages valuable items.

Without Leslie’s broad knowledge, Aurelia wouldn’t have dared to imagine how wealthy people live, with their houses unable to accommodate all their jewelry.

But upon closer reflection, she realized her ignorance was unsurprising. Her whole family didn’t even have a bank account with more than six figures. She didn’t even need to store items in a vault.

Leslie also mentioned that whenever something from the vault, apart from the owner, there would always be professional security guards with the safe deposit. box itself.

When needed, the safe deposit box could not only resist knives but also bullets. Aurelia managed to break such a sturdy box with just a fall.

The security company must be cursing her out if that was the case.

“So, Ms. Hanks, are you brave enough to confront me at the bank?” asked Aurelia.

“You…” Eva stared blankly at Aurelia as if she were a stranger.

Aurelia appeared to be an attractive but ordinary individual, lacking any remarkable

abilities.

But she displayed no fear when confronted with salacious rumors. Therefore, it was not surprising that she wouldn’t easily give up.

Eva realized she had underestimated Aurelia.

Before Eva could gather her thoughts, Lucia noticed the timing was about right and

promptly stood up to Simmons, first of all, I’d like to

put an end to the commotion. “Ms apologize on behalf of the magazine publisher.

“We’ll definitely take full responsibility for any issues caused by our magazine publisher.

“However, Ms. Hanks is mainly responsible for the necklace this time. As for compensation, I think you’ll have to pursue a claim from her directly.”

“Ms. Lawson!” Eva exclaimed, clearly frustrated as she glanced at Lucia.

“Ms. Hanks, do you really think the president would let you bring down the magazine publisher?” Lucia warned Eva.

Eva was left speechless.

But Aurelia raised her hand. “Wait a minute, Ms. Lawson, it doesn’t seem right for the magazine publisher to just get out of responsibility like that, does it?”

Lucia frowned, her face showing displeasure. Everything was going Aurelia’s way. What more did she want?
