Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 249

Mamie dumped everything out of her bag onto the floor.

All kinds of expensive cosmetics, including two pieces of jewelry worth five million dollars being auctioned today, were tossed carelessly on the ground.

In the end, she threw her bag on the floor in anger.

The bag was sponsored by a top brand, not her personal property. It was encrusted with countless diamonds, worth a fortune.

Her tantrum was surprising to say the least.

But indeed, the ruby was not in the bag.

If the ruby was stolen tonight, it must still be in the exhibition hall.

Now, countless people were outside, using infrared to search, but it was no use.

The most probable scenario was that the thief hid the ruby on their body.

And the two most suspicious people were dressed in evening gowns, without pockets, they couldn’t possibly hide the ruby on them.

So, the ruby could only be in their handbags.

No wonder the manager insisted on checking.

Although Mamie had dumped everything out of her bag, the manager still carefully checked it himself.

In the end, he reorganized her things and returned the bag to Mamie: "Ms. Mamie, I'm sorry, we're just following procedures, please understand."

Of course, Mamie wouldn’t agree: "You'll be hearing from my lawyer."

Then, the manager finished inspecting Mamie's bag and went to Agnes: "Ms. Pritchard, I'm sorry, but we also have to check your bag. If you feel uncomfortable doing this in public, we can go to another room."

Agnes didn’t hesitate and passed her bag over.
