The Abandoned Wife Dumped Him First (Victoria and Elias) novel Chapter 94

Genevieve looked at Laurel in a panic, shaking her head and trying to explain. "Mrs. Shawn, you have to believe me, I didn't. That's not my signature. Someone must have forged it, yes, that must be it..."

At this, Victoria let out a cold scoff.

Seeing the mockery in Victoria's eyes, Genevieve felt completely exposed. "Victoria, what are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at how naive you are," Victoria replied with a sharp, dismissive curl of her lip.

"You—"

"Genevieve, you're saying the signature on this slip was forged, right?"

Genevieve dug her nails into her palm, refusing to admit it. "I don't know where that signature came from!"

Victoria ignored Genevieve's look, which was filled with enough hatred to tear her apart, and continued, "In that case, this is very simple to solve."

"What do you mean..."

"When cash is withdrawn over the counter, if the person signs for it, there will be security footage. Forging a signature to withdraw money is no small matter. It's only been a few days since this twenty thousand was taken out, so the bank's surveillance records should still be available. We just need to check to see who was bold enough to impersonate you and sign for the money." Victoria looked at Genevieve, taking two steps closer. "Genevieve, why don't you come to the bank with me to check?"

"I... I don't feel well. I can't go!" Genevieve's face was deathly pale, and she instinctively backed away.

"Is that so? Genevieve, is it that you don't feel well enough to go—" Victoria paused deliberately, then suddenly seized her wrist, giving her no chance to escape. Her eyes narrowed. "Or is it that you're too guilty to dare?"

Genevieve's eyes were filled with terror and unease. She forcefully shook off Victoria's hand and ran to Laurel, clinging to her arm like it was a lifeline.

"Mrs. Shawn, it's not like that, I... I..."

However, before she could finish, Laurel subtly pulled her arm away.

Staring at her empty hands, Genevieve looked at Laurel in a daze. "Mrs... Mrs. Shawn, you don't believe me anymore..."

"Gen, tell me the truth. Did you give the maid this money? And the baby in your womb—" Laurel's mind was a mess. Her earlier certainty that Victoria had framed Genevieve now made her feel like a complete fool.

She couldn't believe Genevieve would do such a thing.

Genevieve didn't miss the flicker of disappointment in Laurel's eyes.
