Chapter: 574
It was clear they had set a trap for her.
If she wasn't prepared, proving her innocence would be an arduous task.
She truly was a perceptive woman.
The officer glanced at Cedric and the other two individuals with a frown.
“I saw it with my own eyes. She didn't seduce anyone or steal a thing."
Upon hearing this, both Cedric and Adalyn looked at Malcolm, unsure of what to say.
Malcolm spoke up.
"Sir, even if she didn't seduce my cousin, the ring was indeed found in her bag. How do we explain that? Since she had a micro camera, she surely would have skillfully avoided being captured on camera, wouldn't she?"
There was some truth to Malcolm's words.
Lost in thought, the officer turned his gaze to Rosalynn.
Rosalynn stated calmly, "I'll say it again: I didn't steal anything. I recall leaving my bag outside when I went to the bathroom. Your associates were all present outside. It must have been convenient for you to do as you pleased, right?"
“Are you suggesting that we purposely set you up? Rosalynn, how can you possibly deny that you stole something? You should be ashamed!" Adalyn remarked sarcastically.
"Sir, the Gordon family holds significant influence in Wragos. The fact remains that the ring was discovered in her bag. She needs to face the consequences!" Malcolm pressured the officer.
The officer furrowed his brows, left speechless.
Just then, a male voice resounded from the doorway.
"Oh? And how do you propose we punish her?"
“The ring she stole is valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars.
According to the law, if convicted of theft, she could face over ten years of imprisonment."
Thinking it was another officer addressing him, Malcolm couldn't hold back and blurted out his response.
“Really?”
The voice was chilly and laced with irony. As Malcolm turned around, he found himself slightly stunned.
Brian!
