Grace said coldly, “If I didn’t steal it, everyone present, apologize to me one by one!”
Seeing her firm tone, everyone felt a little guilty and fell silent.
The cleaning lady said firmly, “You must have stolen it! We will know after searching your belongings. Will you allow us to search you?”
Grace took out her bag and poured out everything inside in front of everyone.
Other than compacts, lipsticks, key tissues, and other small items to touch up her makeup, there was nothing else inside.
The cleaning lady, on the other hand, was staring at her clothes pocket. She grabbed her clothes and reached out to take out a Cartier necklace.
She raised the necklace in her hand in front of Grace and questioned sharply, “What else do you have to say?!”
Everyone gasped. “She really stole it!”
The female colleague who had just put away her phone hurriedly took out her phone to record a video. “Look! We’ve caught her red-handed! I didn’t expect her to be a thief! She is such a bitch.”
Everyone was discussing. Grace narrowed her eyes and instantly understood that this necklace must have been deliberately put in by the cleaning lady in the washroom this afternoon.
The cleaning lady burst into tears. “Everyone, you’re all witnesses! She even stole from an old woman like me! I don’t know what she’ll steal from you in the future. Everyone, help me!”
At this moment, Louise stood up and said, “Grace, the item was indeed found in your bag. the Francis Group does not tolerate employees with questionable behaviors. Please report to the police station.”
“I didn’t steal anything. Someone put this in my bag on purpose Grace said coldly.
“All of you, look at this. You’ve been caught red-handed and you still refuse to admit it! I originally thought that you were just a young lady and would settle it privately. Now, it seems that you’re so unrepentant! Come with me to the police station!” The cleaning lady dragged her by the wrist and walked out. Everyone chimed in.
Grace frowned. Just as she was about to say something, a cold voice suddenly sounded from outside the crowd. “Stop!”
It was Brian.
Everyone looked at the door and automatically made way.
Brian slowly walked over from the door. When Louise saw him, her face turned pale.
She thought, ‘Why did he come back? I originally wanted to think of a way to get Grace out of the Francis Group while Brian was on a business trip. If I destroyed her later, it would have nothing to do with the Francis Group. Brian would not pay too much attention to her. I didn’t expect him to come back on the second day that Grace came back to work!’
Louise had a bad feeling.
“What’s going on?” Brian looked at the cleaning lady expressionlessly. His gaze fell on her hand that was holding Grace.
A strong sense of oppression overwhelmed her, and the cleaning lady could not help but let go.
She felt a little guilty and started to lose her breath when she spoke. “Mr. Francis. She stole something from me.”

Brian frowned and looked at Grace inquiringly.

A colleague spoke up for the cleaning lady. “Mr. Francis, we’ve caught Grace red-handed! Grace did steal the cleaning lady’s necklace and we found it in her bag!”
Another person said, “That’s right! Mr. Francis, let’s do it formally!”
Brian did not believe that Grace would do such a thing. His gloomy gaze swept across the crowd, and everyone kept quiet.
