Chapter 120
The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 120 Evidence
Jessicaâs firm stance took Samuel by surprise. He couldnât quite understand why she was so fired up; after all, Daniel was just a mere assistant. Even if Daniel was wronged, it didnât warrant such a strong reaction. From what she was saying, she seemed ready to press charges. Samuel just didnât get it.
Despite the rivalry, Harrisons and Matthews were far from being sworn enemies, and it wouldnât be wise to clash with the Matthews over such a small incident. Considering this, Samuelâs face broke into a friendly smile.
âPlease, Jessica, donât be upset. If itâs a misunderstanding, and my security did wrong your assistant, Iâll apologize.â
âItâs my assistant who was wronged, not me! If anyone should apologize, itâs to him!â
âSo youâre saying I should apologize to your assistant?â
âWhoever accused my assistant should apologize to him! And if you, Samuel, think my assistant is a thief, you owe him an apology too! Otherwise, suing everyone involved wouldnât be a big deal for me.â
At that moment, Jennifer quietly whispered to Harper, âEarlier, I saw that country guy take something and
put it in his bag â
With Jenniferâs tip, Harper pondered her next move. Jessica was pressuring Samuel, which put him in a tough spot. If Harper could find evidence of Danielâs theft right in front of Samuel, it could resolve his crisis, and who knows, she might be rewarded with a promotion or even end up climbing to a top position!
The more Harper thought about it, the more excited she got. Without delay, she jumped forward, pointing at Daniel and accusing, âHeâs the thief! I have proof!â
Hearing Harperâs claim, Samuel immediately responded, âWhereâs the evidence?â
Harper pointed at Danielâs bag. âThe stolen item is in that bag.â
Jessica jumped in, âThe clothes in the bag were purchased by me.â
Samuel figured a mere shop assistant wouldnât be bold enough to make such an accusation at this point. So he made a suggestion, âJessica, you say the clothes in the bag were bought by you. Letâs take everything out and see if they match your purchase records, shall we?â
âFine by me,â Jessica said without hesitation, then she began taking things out of the bag.
When she pulled out a little sundress, she was momentarily stunned. She hadnât bought that dress. She turned to Daniel, âDid you buy this?â
âNo.â
âThen why is it in the bag?â
âHow should I know?â
Of course, Daniel knew, he just wasnât saying.

Evidence!
Harper was thrilled. âLook, Samuel, this country guy is a thief. That dress is from our store; itâs proof of his
theft.â
Samuel looked at Jessica with an amiable smile. âJessica, I believe with your financial resources, you certainly wouldnât need to steal something so trivial. So, I think you have nothing to do with this.
However, it seems your assistant may have some unusual predilections. Want to handle it yourself,
Jessica, or shall I take care of him for you?â
