Chapter 381
Pampered By Power: The True Heiress Returns
Chapter 381 Seeing that Lindsey was about to walk to the door and teach the girl a lesson, Elysia stopped her immediately.
After all, Lindsey was the CEO of the company. It seems not so good that she went to argue with her employee.
âForget it, Lindsey. She didnât give me a hard time, Besides, I fought back myself. If you go and argue with her for me, it looks like I asked you to bully her.â
Lindsey looked at her seriously. âAre you sure?â
âIâm sure.â
Hearing this, Lindsey finally let it go. âAlright. Iâll tell them later. Whenever you come, you can come in directly. No appointment necessary.â
Elysiaâs eyes flickered slightly. She thought, I came here to see Lindsey for the cufflink. I wouldnât bother her at other times But hearing what Lindsey said, she nodded and replied, âThank you, Lindsey She knew well that Lindsey was worried that she might be bullied. Lindsey would feel sad if she refused to accept her kindness.
âElysia, why did you come to see me today?â
As Evelyn started to speak, Elysiaâs expression changed and her face became serious.
She had already prepared herself mentally before and had anticipated all the possible consequences, so she did not hesitate to take out the cufflink from her pocket, handed it to Lindsey, and slowly said, âDo you recognize it?â
Lindsey stared at the cufflink for a moment, but she still had no idea about it. Meeting Elysiaâs serious and somewhat stem eyes, her heart sank slightly.
Lindsey thought, âSince Elysia came to me with this cufflink, it must have something to do with me. Iâm sure itâs not mine. So if... I must know the one who owned the cufflink Taking a closer look, Evelyn found another clue: this should be a manâs cufflink.
Her face changed slightly. She wondered, âCould it be my fatherâs? This is the only person I can think of She had rarely seen Jim Evans since she was a child, and after she went abroad, they had not seen each other for many years.
As for the cufflink, she was not sure whether Jim had one. But she remembered clearly when she was eleven years old, when Ashley married Jim, Jim wore a suit that day, and the cufflink he wore seemed to be similar to this one.
âDo you think of something?â Elysia asked.
Hearing Elysiaâs voice, Lindsey came to her senses and nodded. âIâm not sure if itâs correct based on my fragmented memories.â
âTell me about it.â
âItâs... my fatherâs?â
Elysiaâs eyes darkened, and she nodded. âYouâre right. Itâs his.â
âBut why did you have his cufflink?â Lindsey asked with confusion.

She shared everything with Lindsey because she had already let down her guard the moment she chose to come to her.

She trust Lindsey, so she came to her. She wanted to find the truth with her help. After all, it was not easy to investigate this matter by Elysia herself, and Lindsey had lived in the Evans residence since she was a child and was close to Jim. Moreover, Lindsey had always been grateful to Evelyn, so she was the best choice.
Lindseyâs face darkened. âYou said this cufflink was found in Evelynâs drawer?â
âThatâs right,â Elysia looked up at her. âLindsey, tell me, why would Jimâs cufflink be found in Evelynâs drawer?â
Elysiaâs question completely stumped Lindsey. Her hand tightening around the cufflink, she looked gloomy.
Lindsey thought, âI have an answer in mind, but if I could think of it, Elysia would know it too. So she came to me today because she wanted to know my position instead of the owner of the cufflink Walking over to the floorâtoâceiling window, Lindsey crossed her arms and looked out at the skyscrapers and the traffic, and fell into deep thought.
âIf he really had something to do with Evelynâs death, what should I do? Avenge Evelyn?â Lindsey thought.
Her brow furrowed, her mind racing. The pale little face flashed through her mind.
Lindsey sneered inwardly, thinking, âFather? My father has never cared about me in the past twenty years. It was Evelyn who was nice to me. If it wasnât for her, I would have been abused to death by Ashley.
After a while, her cold voice rang out in the office, âElysia, if my father... No, if Jim had anything to do with Evelynâs death, I wonât let him off.â
Elysia knew she was right about her from her words.
âLindsey, donât worry, I wonât make things difficult for you. I just want to know how Evelyn died. But Iâm voiceless, and my power is limited. I want you to help me.â
âHow?â Lindsey turned to look at her. Elysia put her hands in her pocket and walked towards her. âYouâve spent the longest time in the Evans residence and youâre closest to Jim. I want you to help me find some clues. Use the cufflink as bait.â
âUse the cufflink as bait?â Lindsey was puzzled. âBut if we do that, we might alert Jim.â
âNo, we wouldnât alert him.â Elysia stood in front of the floorâtoâceiling window, her eyes sharp. âI do this to draw him out.â
Her voice was cold, giving people a heartâwrenching feeling. Lindsey stared at her blankly, surprised by the powerful aura emanating from her, and said nothing more.
Elysia continued, âIf he was innocent, he had nothing to worry about. You just need to hint at it once or twice, and I believe Jim will react. Iâll take care of the rest.â
She thought that this was the best method after careful consideration.
Elysia thought, âIf I didnât take the initiative, the truth would be hidden forever.
âIf Evelyn was coerced by Jim back then, only she and Jim would know about it. Evelyn is gone, and the only one who knows about the truth is Jim. So I could only make him expose himself. In that case, I could find more clues related to this matter.â
Lindsey frowned as if she was pondering her words. After a while, she said, âIâve thought it over, and yo But you canât leave me out.â
ethod is feasible.
As she uttered the last sentence, her gaze met Elysiaâs. She looked at her in earnest. âJim is a ruthless man. If he knew you Mar Chapter 381 were investigating this matter, he would never let you go. I canât let you take this risk alone?
Elysia was about to respond when Lindsey cut her off. âI know what youâre thinking. Youâre afraid that if I get involved, Iâll fight with Jim in the end, and itâll damage my reputation. But I donât care about any of that.â
âElysia, Evelyn had gone. Grandma, uncle, aunt, cousins, and I, we canât lose you again.â
