Chapter 627

hapter 627 Kaze’s a Thief “A thief?”

Wendell was very loud.

The senior executives having breakfast in the restaurant heard his accusation.

Kaze was getting looks of contempt.

Wham!

Darcy slammed her cutlery down on the table and jolted to her feet.

As her eyes narrowed in rage, she said, “Please do not make false claims, Mr. Delaney. My husband will never do something like that.”

Nancy happened to be there. Seeing that her old friend was in trouble, she came over to ease the tension.

“It could just be a misunderstanding, Mr. Delaney. Why don’t we go somewhere more private to sort things out?”

Nancy was concerned that Darcy might not be able to attend the auction if things got out of hand.

Wendell glared at the woman.

“Sort things out? Fine. We’ll talk in the control room.”

He smirked.

The security personnel gave Kaze hostile looks.

Darcy furrowed her brows.

She was not a dummy. She knew that Wendell was stirring trouble.

Darcy and Kaze were potentially putting themselves in danger by going with them to the control room.

“No. We have done nothing wrong. We can deal with the matter here,” Darcy responded, having nothing to hide.

“You asked for it. Don’t blame me for the public humiliation later.”

Wendell scoffed. The location did not matter to him.

Since Mountain Dew Estate was his territory, he determined the outcome of the situation.

“What was stolen, Mr. Delaney?” Darcy asked coldly.

“Your husband stole something of mine. I lost the documents for River North Corporation’s research on the auction items and the bank card for the corporate account.”

A man in his thirties stormed into the restaurant.

Darcy recognized the man.

He was Cameron Winter, the COO of River North Corporation.

Kaze had struck Cameron for talking bad about Darcy yesterday.

Cameron gave Kaze and Darcy dirty looks when they ran into each other last night. It was clear he had not let the matter go, “Please show the proof that my husband stole the items, Mr. Winter.”

Darcy was sure about one thing. It was an elaborate scheme to frame Kaze.

“Since you want proof, I’ll show you proof.”

Wendell waved his arm.

A staff member took out a tablet and played a surveillance video.

In the video, Kaze sneaked around in the dark. He popped his head into one of the chalets.

The time stamp showed that it was past 10:00 PM.

As the auction was happening the next day, most guests had turned in for the night by then.

“Did you go out after I went to bed, Kaze?” Darcy asked with a frown.

“Yeah. I went for a stroll.”

Kaze nodded.

He carried the three thugs to Deborah’s chalet.

That clip was taken when he went to check if Deborah was in her chalet.

Darcy’s heart sank.

She did not believe that Kaze was capable of stealing.

Nevertheless, Kaze’s late–night stroll put him in a precarious position.

+15 BONUS “What do you have to say, Darcy? Your husband showed up at Mr. Winter’s chalet,” Wendell uttered curtly.

Kaze had been to Deborah’s chalet, but Wendell claimed the chalet was Cameron’s instead.

The chalets looked the same anyway.

“My husband isn’t a thief,” Darcy said with determination.

Deborah strutted over like a winner.

“Darcy, your husband didn’t steal money or valuable items. He only took information for the auction, and the evidence is out. Yet, you are still in denial.”

She sneered. “Maybe he was working under your orders.

“You’re vile to take out your competition before the auction.”
