His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 484

In this way, Fade Chen followed the crowd and arrived at a small exhibition booth. This booth belonged to a small- scale jewelry company. Their exhibits weren't very special. The materials and the design of their jewelries were ordinary. Fade showed little interest in these items. After a few glances, he moved on to the next booth.

On the other side, Salazar Xu and Rowena Song were eyeing Fade. At this moment, when they saw Fade walking alone, both their faces lit up with delight. They made a signal to the staff at the booth.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man who looked like a manager walked out from the booth. With a nervous expression, he said out loud, "Oh, this is bad. Help me look for it. Hurry!"

Upon hearing such an anxious cry, the surrounding guests couldn't help but turn their attention to him. All of them piped up," What happened? What's the problem?"

The manager was visibly anxious and he said in a loud voice, "I just noticed that a diamond ring worth 100,000 yuan from our booth has gone missing. Maybe we just misplaced it. Everyone, please help us to look for it."

The manager's tone was humble and polite. Many of the guests present that day were honorable and well-known. They did not want their names to be associated with the word 'thief', so they frantically helped to look around for it. Some people even opened their handbags and briefcases to show that the jewelry wasn't inside, in order to prove their innocence.

As a result of this chaos, the guests at the other booths became curious and they drew closer to this booth. More people started to crowd around them.

At this moment, the manager pretended to look for the ring around the guests in front of the exhibits while saying, "All the guests here are VIPs. I'm sure you all don't care about such a small sum of money and a ring like that. There are many people attending this exhibition today. I'm afraid there might have been some strange people among us who used this opportunity to steal the ring. That's why I need all of your help to recall if you've seen anyone suspicious earlier."

The guests frowned, but nobody wanted to offend anyone else. Therefore, no one spoke for a while.

Thus, the manager said with a loud voice, "Have any of you seen someone who was dressed very casually? Maybe you saw someone who's not from this industry, and perhaps they left this booth in a haste."

After the manager planted this thought in their heads, some guests suddenly remembered Fade who was with them earlier. After all, Fade's attire did seem a little plain among such VIPs. In addition to this, Fade only took one look at the booth and left very quickly. He matched every single detail the manager had just described.

Therefore, everyone was suspicious of Fade.

Some of them whispered to the manager and pointed toward the direction he went.

Upon hearing this, the manager frowned. Together with a few other staff members, they headed to where Fade was resting.

Fade didn't pay attention to what was happening. He saw a bunch of people heading toward him, and he felt that something wasn't right. He frowned.

The manager of the booth approached Fade. Although his expression was calm, there was a hint of suspicion in his tone when he asked,"Sir, I just want to ask you a few questions."

Upon hearing his tone, Fade frowned even more. Looking at them, he said coldly, "What's the matter?"

The manager dived straight in. He said in a straightforward manner,"We have a diamond ring worth 100,000 yuan exhibited at our booth earlier, but now it has gone missing. Earlier, I noticed that you were at our booth, so I was wondering if you saw anything?"

As soon as these words left his mouth, Fade naturally understood that he was being accused of stealing the diamond ring.

Immediately, Fade frowned and said, "I didn't see it."

Upon hearing this, the manager frowned as well. His face turned cold and he glared at Fade. With an icy tone, he asked,"Do you mind if we ask you to undergo inspection?"

"What do you mean by this?" Fade's expression turned ice- cold. Looking at the manager, he said, "I told you, I didn't see your diamond ring."

The manager did not flinch, and he said in a low voice, "Sir, I think it's best if you let us check you. Otherwise, we won't be able to prove your innocence. If it's not on you, then that would make things easier for the both of us."
