Chapter 491 There's No
Necklace
"Get this thief out of here before Linsey steals anything else!"
"Yes, yes, deal with her quickly."
The growing chorus of accusations echoed through the hall, each word a crushing force against Linsey.
The hostility in the room was suffocating
She could feel the tide turning against her-if this continued, no one would believe her.
Her expression darkened. That was enough. Clenching her jaw, she grabbed her handbag.
Without hesitation, she unzipped it and, in front of everyone, turned it over. The sharp clatter of items hitting the marble floor sliced through the tension. Silence fell. All eyes were on the scattered contents of Linsey's bag
Linsey had never wanted to dignify such an accusation with a defense. It was beneath her, humiliating.
But Carol had played dirty-using doctored footage as supposed proof.
If Linsey didn't counter with undeniable evidence, she wouldn't be walking out of here unscathed.noveldrama
Once her bag was empty, she shook it out for good measure, then tossed it onto the floor with an air of finality
Her cold gaze locked onto Carol. "Is this enough for you?"
Carol and Alexa froze, clearly not expecting Linsey to turn the tables so abruptly. Before they could recover, Linsey pressed on. "In your footage, I supposedly took the necklace from the lounge and stuffed it into my bag."
She gestured at the scattered items. "Well? As you can all see, there's no necklace. This bag is already packed full-it couldn't possibly fit a bulky jewelry piece. So tell me, Carol, where exactly was I supposed to hide it?" "You- Carol faltered, momentarily thrown off balance. Linsey didn't give her the chance to regain control. "Everyone, look carefully." She spread her arms. "I'm not wearing any jewelry tonight. My dress is fitted- there's no place to hide a necklace."
Her voice
grew
sharper
"And more importantly, I haven't left this corner of the hall since I arrived"
She pointed up at the security camera. "Carol, you showed us surveillance
footage from the lounge, claiming I stole the necklace. Fine Then how about the footage from this camera?"

A faint, wry smile played on her lips "I can say with absolute certainty that I've been standing under the camera's watch all night. I never set foot in that lounge.
She turned back to Carol, her gaze unwavering "If you don't believe me, let's call the police. They can verify both surveillance videos. Otherwise, I will not accept this baseless accusation. I'll be the one taking you to court for defamation.
Her tone sharpened, each word cutting through the suffocating tension.
A stunned silence gripped the room. The guests stared at Linsey, disbelief flickering across their faces. No one had expected her to stay so calm to dismantle the accusations so ruthlessly, so logically
