Thalassa fumbled about, but she was empty-handed in the end.
Yet, the gaze Lysander cast her way grew colder and more penetrating, like a sharpened blade ready to pierce right through her.
Halting her actions, Thalassa suddenly realized that there might be a problem with the video Richard had shown him.
She met his gaze timidly, probing, "Mr. Sinclair, does this video... is it somehow related to me?"
Otherwise, why would Lysander's gaze suddenly turn so icy and furious?
Even Richard looked at her with disbelief.
Lysander tossed his cell phone onto the dining table, his voice as cold as ice, "I need a plausible explanation!"
With a bang, he slammed the phone onto the high-quality marble table.
Richard winced.
Mr. Sinclair, can't you be a bit more gentle? That's my phone! He thought to himself.
Thalassa was unsure of what was happening. She picked up the phone and opened the video. In the video, a woman in a beige dress was holding a circular pendant and conversing with a middle-aged man in a waistcoat.
Recognizing the woman in the video as Hertha, Thalassa gasped.
How could Hertha be selling this circular pendant?
Where did she get the pendant?
Wait!
Did Lysander imply that she had stolen the circular pendant from the Royal Estates?
Because she was the only one who had been to the Royal Estates. Hertha had never been there.
Hertha was her closest friend. If she stole the pendant, she must have asked Hertha to help sell it.
Anyone would think the same if they were in this situation.
But she really didn't take the circular pendant.
