Chapter 167 Tricked
“Weren’t you wearing it this morning and staunchly refused to return it to Jonathan? Don’t you remember?” Josephine couldn’t help feeling a tad suspicious at the panicked expression on Margaret’s face.
“Oh, you’re referring to that watch?” It was as though something suddenly occurred to Margaret. “I took it off this morning before leaving home and placed it on the table!”
“You placed it on the table?” Josephine swept a gaze over the table in bewilderment, but there was only an empty box there.
Huh? There’s no watch there.
Upon glimpsing the dubious look in her eyes, Margaret uneasily changed her tune. “Perhaps I took it off when I took a shower but forgot where I put it. I’ll look for it when I’m free.”
“You’re not lying to me, are you, Mom?” Josephine regarded her skeptically.
She took it off but forgot where she put it? After so many years, I know her all too well! She would never bear to take off a watch worth over ten million. Instead, she would probably flaunt it everywhere, afraid that people wouldn’t know that she was wearing such an expensive watch!
Hearing that, Margaret snorted and retorted, “Why would I do so? It’s just a worthless watch, no? Did you think I sold it off secretly?”
“That’s not what I meant, Mom—”
Surprise flooded Josephine at Margaret’s intense reaction.
I was merely asking about it, so why did she react so strongly?
“Okay, stop talking about that! It’s merely a worthless watch, isn’t it? I’ll just pay him back if I misplaced it!” Margaret harrumphed, cutting Josephine off mid-utterance and giving her no chance to speak.
