Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Jane Is A Thief

Madelyn slapped her hands over her lips.

It was as if the words had stumbled out of her mouth unintentionally.

It had been an accident. She hadn’t intended to say that.

It didn’t matter, though. What was done was done.

An idiot could tell what Madelyn was trying to insinuate.

Dwayne whirled around and narrowed his eyes at Jane. There was a dangerous edge to his voice “You stole the money from us!”

The tone of his voice was firm and devoid of hesitation.

It was as if he had witnessed Jane’s theft with his own eyes and had concrete evidence of her crime.

A loud hiss filled the room.

Everyone gasped in shock.

The staff who had attended to Jane was stunned.

What if Jane had stolen money from Fowler to buy the car?

They would’ve given away the car for nothing if the Fowler family decided not to pay for it!

“Janie is not a thief! She paid for the car with her own hard–earned money!”

Lila hissed angrily.

She had never been so upset at anyone before.

The Fowler family was truly detestable!

“Her own hard–earned money? Are you joking? She’s a student!”

Dwayne knew that Jane was a sophomore at the University of Oricle.

A Porsche Cayenne costs 150 grand. The average college student wouldn’t be able to afford it.

The only way she could pay for the car was if she worked as a sex worker.

Dwayne did not say that.

Jane couldn’t possibly resort to sex work.

Besides, if Jane had been prostituting herself, the Fowler family would have found out.

They would have done their best to avoid such vermin instead of recognizing her as part of the family and trying to welcome her back into the fold.
