Chapter 834. Whose necklace is this?
Chapter 834: 834. Whose necklace is this?
Adam Jones didn’t speak; he simply glanced at Adrian Green holding that exquisitely yellow silk-wrapped gift box, which contained an inkstone inside, but by then, it was already shattered into pieces.
Sophia Green stood beside Cam Green with an aggrieved expression, her face showing some indignation.
At that moment, Thompson Shuyi was also standing by Sophia’s side, kindly and earnestly consoling her:
"Alright, alright, don’t be anxious. Let your sister and brother-in-law check the surveillance footage and see."
At that time, Master Clark’s complexion wasn’t very good. If it weren’t for his birthday celebration, not wanting to dampen the spirits of his guests, he would have already left.
What a mess.
This entire family, ever since they arrived, had caused nothing but trouble. A perfectly fine inkstone— who would have destroyed it for no reason? Who knows if it was already broken before it was gifted.
The Old Master didn’t want to suspect others maliciously, but it was really this family that was exasperating.
Everything they said seemed to be insinuating that someone was deliberately targeting their family.
What did they mean by that? Did they think the Clark Family consisted of such people?
Master Clark’s face darkened further as he said, "I am very sorry, but our family is all we have; we don’t have any surveillance installed in our home."
Although the Old Master’s tone wasn’t harsh, everyone could still detect the anger he was suppressing, and no one dared to make a sound.
Just then, a servant of the Clark Family approached Adrian Green and handed him something that looked like a necklace, "Young Miss, this was found near the gifts."
Adrian Green’s brows slightly furrowed without a sound, and he looked towards Elly Campbell with a complex gaze.
He recognized this necklace; he had often seen Elly Campbell wearing it.
Elly Campbell immediately recognized the necklace that the servant handed to Adrian as her own.
It was from the year she spent in the United States, when she visited a remote town and happened to encounter a tornado. At that time, a teenage girl was injured in the leg by a collapsing house, and it was she who rescued her.
Afterward, that girl handmade this necklace and gave it to her as a gift.
She also told her that her ancestors were wizards and that the necklace could bring her safety.
Although she didn’t know whether it was true or not, she accepted it as it was a token of the girl’s heart.
Later, whether by coincidence or because the necklace truly could bring safety, she encountered several dangers in the United States, each time only coming through them safely because she wore that necklace.
After that, she almost always wore the necklace and never left it off her person.
She didn’t know how she had lost it.
Elly Campbell touched her empty neck and her brows suddenly twisted.
The necklace was so light she hadn’t noticed when it fell off, and she didn’t know why it would be found near the gift stand, a place she had never visited.
As the servant spoke, the old couple of the Clark Family naturally also heard, and the Old Lady looked at the necklace in Adrian’s hand, saying:
"Adrian, whose necklace is this?"
With a complex expression, Adrian glanced at Elly Campbell more than once, but before he could answer, Sophia suddenly exclaimed, "I recognize this necklace, it’s..."
Sophia’s words stopped at the tip of her tongue, as if she was considering something and did not continue, but the fullness of her grievance seemed ready to spill from her eyes.
Biting her lower lip, she felt too aggrieved to speak.
The elderly Clark couple, already somewhat annoyed by her affected behavior, was about to speak when Thompson Shuyi spoke up before them:
"Sophia, you recognize this necklace? Do you know whose it is?"
