After Madeline said that, everyone’s gaze landed on Madeline.
They followed Madeline’s gaze and their eyes fell on the spoon Madeline was holding.
However, when they saw what was on the spoon, Ada’s face fell. She subconsciously lifted virtual-novel.net hand to touch virtual-novel.net ear and realized the earring on virtual-novel.net left ear had fallen without virtual-novel.net knowledge.
It had fallen into the pot that was used to make the soup!
Ada’s heartbeat became erratic. She hurriedly lifted virtual-novel.net hand to take off the earring on virtual-novel.net right ear when Madeline looked over at her.
“Oh, this earring seems to be the same as the one you’re wearing right now, Miss Ada.”
“…”
Ada paused the movement of virtual-novel.net removing virtual-novel.net earring abruptly.
Carter and Camille looked at virtual-novel.net at the same time. Then, the aunts all turned their attention to her.
A thin layer of cold sweat appeared on Ada’s forehead. Her eyes started shifting hurriedly as well.
“That’s not Ada’s earring!” Ada’s mother quickly tried to explain and defend her.
Madeline slowly lifted the corners of virtual-novel.net lips. “If I’m not mistaken, this is an international luxury brand. Do you think it’s possible to see such a rare limited edition earring everywhere you go?”
“…” Ada’s face became even paler when virtual-novel.net heard Madeline’s question.
Madeline’s smile grew wider. “If there’s this possibility, then may I ask where’s the earring on your left ear, Miss Ada?”
“…”
“Why were you in such a hurry to remove the earring on your right ear? Is it because you don’t want people to know that they’re a pair?”
“…”
Madeline asked three questions back to back but Ada was speechless. She lost the ability to retort.
Carter had already seen through everything when virtual-novel.net saw Ada’s reaction.
He glanced coldly at Ada with a stern gaze that was covered in thorns. “How dare you do this sort of thing in order to chase Eveline away?!”
“…” When Ada heard that, virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net heart had stopped beating. She explained in a panic, “Carty, I don’t know what happened. I lost my earring yesterday and have no idea why it’s in the pot.”
“You lost the earring yesterday but you’re wearing the other side today. Do you think I’m three years old?”
“…”
“Carter, t-this must be a misunderstanding. Camille is so good to Ada, so how could virtual-novel.net possibly want to hurt Camille just to chase Eveline away? Ada is being slandered! It’s Eveline! It must be her!”
Ada’s mother was not flushed at all and virtual-novel.net heart was not racing when virtual-novel.net lied. She even wanted to push the blame to Madeline, but virtual-novel.net realized there were some changes in Camille’s eyes.
Camille was obviously getting suspicious now because Ada’s guilty and panicked behavior had basically explained everything.
“Camille, are you seriously believing that woman instead of Ada?”
Ada’s mother displayed a hurt look.
“I can promise you that Ada won’t do such things. Plus, Ada has been with me this entire night. She didn’t even go into the kitchen, so how did virtual-novel.net touch those things?
“You heard it just now. This woman said virtual-novel.net wanted to seek revenge on me and Ada, so virtual-novel.net must be the one who stole Ada’s earring to purposely do this. It must be!”
Camille’s expression looked calmer after virtual-novel.net heard what Ada’s mother said.
“You really didn’t go into the kitchen?” Camille asked.
Ada’s mother answered affirmatively, “Not at all!”
