She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448: The Second-place Hacker

Well, she was already late anyway.

Cheyenne decided to take off her white coat and opened the car door to get out... However, her legs, which had been bent for five hours, felt a bit numb.

She almost tripped and fell as soon as she took a step, but thankfully Kelvin caught her arm in time and supported her.

"Where are you going?"

"Home for dinner. It's already off work, why should I go to the hospital? I didn't eat enough at lunch... I don't want to stand here and freeze."

Kelvin was rendered speechless.

'Always thinking about eating except sleeping, that's the real Cheyenne. I wonder what those internet users who praise her as a goddess would think if they knew.'

In the end, Kelvin still walked her to the entrance of her villa.

He watched her leave gracefully, not even saying "thank you," let alone inviting him in for dinner.

...

The next day.

The sky was dim, and there were dark clouds densely spread across the sky. It seemed like it would rain soon, even in the early morning.

Layne sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, reading a medical book. Occasionally, he reached out and picked up the cup of strong tea on the table to take a sip.

In his line of sight, there was a white figure running up and down the stairs in the building.

"Cheyenne, could you stop pacing around? You're making my eyes blurry... Can't I just enjoy my morning tea and read a book in peace?"

Cheyenne's lips curled slightly, and she stepped on her flip-flops, making a "slap" sound as she walked.

"Hey, it's already 8:30. Why aren't you going to work, Cheyenne..."

"Grandpa, today is the weekend, I don't need to go to work."

She placed one hand on the armrest of the sofa and jumped from behind to the front, grabbing her bag that she had carelessly thrown on the sofa when she came back last night.

She emptied the contents of the bag and searched through them.

Lipstick, wallet, ID... even the hair tie she used yesterday was there. How could the earring be missing?

Cheyenne carefully recalled what she wore yesterday, then quickly ran upstairs. The things from the sofa were there.

Layne looked at her unusual behavior in astonishment and couldn't help but ask, "Cheyenne, what are you doing?"

Her anxious voice came from the second-floor room, "Looking for something!"

It wasn't in the white coat either.

She searched the bed, under the bed, and even the bathroom, but there was no trace of the earring.

Cheyenne scratched her head, feeling frustrated, and sat on the carpet, tilting her head as she recalled yesterday's events.

Right, she was playing with the earring when she and Kelvin were having dinner at the restaurant.

Later, she went to the restroom but couldn't remember if she put the earring away because she received a call from Gordon and left in a hurry.

She didn't notice the earring after leaving the restaurant and hadn't seen it since.

It should have been left on the table at the restaurant.

Oh no, there was only one earring... Could it have been mistaken for trash and thrown away by the restaurant staff?

But the earring was very important evidence.

Cheyenne didn't even have time to change her clothes, so she quickly grabbed her phone and ran out of the door.
