I responded with equal sincerity.
Vivienne instantly burst into tears.
A beautiful woman crying, how heartbreaking and restrained.
Sure enough, Inez quickly jumped in, "Elliot, you're being too harsh. Vivienne has done her best.Alec also remembered his role as her boyfriend. "We all know you're lying. If we keep this up, it's going to end badly."
But I was determined to expose Vivienne's true colors.
"I still think Vivienne is coveting the bracelet and deliberately not returning it. If you don't believe the report, we can go confront the designer face-to-face."
"It's not hard to find someone to act for you, is it?"
I shrugged, "Then we'll have to call the police. Vivienne, did you lose the bracelet on campus?"
Suddenly, everyone at school seemed to become a suspect.
Vivienne said dryly, "I don't know where I lost it."
"Is that so? What do you think? If it's compensation, I can offer a discount."
Inez anxiously tugged at Vivienne, afraid she might agree.
