Chapter 252 Jared replied nonchalantly, âIs it wrong for me to buy a necklace for my wife?â
Mamie sneered, âThe Heart of the Kingdom was auctioned off at Sothebyâs three years ago. It went for $14 million, bought by some mystery bidder.
You and I were both there. You might fool others, but do you really think you can pull the wool over my eyes?â
âSo what do you think happened?â
âJared, youâve been acting strangely today, especially with Claud being here. His purchase certificate isnât even dry yet, donât you think itâs a bit too obvious?â Jared fell silent.
Mamie said, âBut I must admit, youâve got some guts. I bet you got in touch with the original buyer through Claud, bought the jewel off him for a high price, and quickly signed a new certificate to prove Agnesâs innocence. You spent $20 million on a $14 million necklace, just to get Agnes out of a tight spot. You knew that if Agnes was taken away, no matter what happened next, everyone would think she was guilty. The best way to smooth things over was to make Agnes the owner of the necklace, but Jared, spending $10 million to protect a thief? Do you have a conscience?
Jared answered coldly. âAgnes could never be a thief. Iâll get to the bottom of this.â
Mamie challenged, âOn what grounds do you believe sheâs not a thief? The necklace was found in her bag âShe has no reason to do this, sheâs not greedy for wealth.â
Mamie laughed, âShe has every reason to do this. Not for the value of the necklace, but to frame me.â
Jared insisted, âAgnes is not that kind of person.â
âMamie, you saw it with your own eyes. When you arrived, everyone was discussing it. Almost everyone thought I was arrogant, that I framed Agnes.
She stole the necklace and made sure she was caught, then blamed me. Jared, sheâs not as simple as you think.â
1 believe Agnes wouldnât do this.â
âMamie, then whatâs the truth? When it was time to search her, she was so calm, even handing over her bag voluntarily. Would a normal person react that way? Everything was premeditatedâ
Jared said calmly, âYouâre mistaken. She doesnât have the capability to do this. Iâll investigate and give you an explanation.â

ï¤Chapter 1515 An angry Mamie retorted, âYouâve all been fooled by her Jared, I thought you were a calm and wise man. Why have you suddenly become so ignorant about this? What has she done to make you all serve her? Fine, Iâll wait. If wait for you to investigate and give me an explanation. If you canât find out, I wonât let her off. fm not a pushover. Donât blame me for being ruthless to your wife then Mamie stormed off in her high heels, while Agnes chose to stay where she was. As she stood there, her heart slowly grew cold and numb.
It became apparent to Agnes that the necklace she received wasnât a pre planned gift from Jared, instead, it seemed like a last-minute âemergencyâ
solution.
What bothered her even more was that Jared hadnât come clean about it. He hadnât mentioned anything about the necklace, not even an hour after they left the showroom. Agnes had been overjoyed by the surprise, but now it all felt like a deception.
Questions swirled in her mind. Why did Jared feel the need to resort to this emergency solution? Was it to âproveâ her innocence in some way, or was he afraid that Mamie would be wrongly accused?
