“Police…why are the police here?”
“Who called the police?!”
The crowd suddenly became somewhat panicked.
Everyone present was a wealthy socialite or gentleman in A City, usually not afraid of the police.
But now, in a public place, if something really did happen and they were taken away by the police, even if they could use connections to get out later, it would still be a loss of face.
“Officer, I’m the one who called the police.” Lily Gray stepped forward, speaking calmly.
Joan Wellington lowered her voice: “Lily Gray, what the hell are you doing? This is our Wellington family’s banquet, why are you calling the police for no reason!”
Lily Gray patted her hand, but remained silent with a smile.
The police officer walked up to her, “Are you Lily Gray?”
“Yes, that’s me.” Lily Gray nodded.
Everyone, including Joan Wellington and Zara Lucas, looked at Lily Gray, wondering what she was up to.
“Miss Gray, where is the suspect you mentioned?” The police officer’s question was odd, asking about the suspect without asking what happened.
Lily Gray hooked her lips, her beautiful peach blossom eyes scanning the crowd.
As her gaze swept across people, their hearts tightened involuntarily, fearing that Lily Gray would suddenly point at them.
When Zara Lucas saw Lily Gray’s gaze sweeping across, her heart suddenly trembled.
Before the uneasy feeling settled, Lily Gray’s gaze suddenly fixed on her.
Lily Gray stretched out a finger, pointing at her, “It’s her, Miss Zara Lucas of the Lucas family.”
“Lily Gray, don’t slander me! Who’s the suspect now!”
However, Lily Gray ignored Zara Lucas and continued: “Officer, the necklace she’s wearing is the one 1 reported, the ten million dollars worth of glass-type Emperor’s green emerald necklace.”
The officer who came to handle the case had noticed the necklace around Zara Lucas’s neck when Lily Gray pointed her out.
It really looked similar to the picture left by Miss Gray when she reported the case earlier.
“You…you’re falsely accusing me! This necklace is bought by my brother, not yours!” A flash of panic crossed Zara’s eyes.
She suddenly remembered the limited edition bag from last time.
This emerald necklace, like that limited edition bag, had been found by her and her mother among the things Lily Gray left at the Lucas family’s house.
No, it doesn’t matter!
Zara Lucas forced herself to calm down and reassured herself.
That bag had Lily Gray’s initials embroidered on it to prove it belonged to her.
This necklace didn’t have Lily Gray’s name on it, so she wasn’t afraid!
Seeing Zara Lucas still thick-skinned even when faced with her imminent doom, Lily Gray couldn’t help but sneer: “Your brother bought it for you? Officer… it seems that the mastermind behind this theft case is not just Miss Zara Lucas, but also her brother, Austin Lucas.”
“Miss Gray, rest assured, we will contact Mr. Lucas once the suspect is confirmed.” The officer seemed to trust Lily Gray’s words.
“Lily Gray, what makes you think this necklace is yours! Officer… this necklace was given to me by my brother, who is the vice president of Concord Group. We are part of the Lucas family, we have plenty of money, don’t listen to her nonsense!”
Zara Lucas thought that mentioning the Lucas family would scare the police.
However, the officers who came to handle the case didn’t pay attention to her words at all.
“Miss Lucas, please take off your necklace, we need to verify it.” One officer walked right in front of Zara Lucas, asking for the necklace.
“I told you that I am Zara Lucas of the Lucas family, this necklace was bought by my brother…”
“Miss Lucas, since you’re not cooperating, we’ll have to take it ourselves.”
Before Zara Lucas could finish speaking, the officer suddenly made his move, and in the blink of an eye, pinned Zara’s hands behind her back.
Another officer quickly came forward, taking the emerald necklace off her neck.
“Captain, it’s confirmed.. This is the necklace ATiss Gray reported!”
