Chapter 757
Jimmy had an unpleasant look on his face.
He was already pissed that this happened during the marriage between the Quinton and Jameson family.
However, Olivia insisted on catching the thief in front of all the attendees. Would they not become everyone's laughingstock?
He valued prestige so much, so how could he endure this?
However, before he could reject it, Dorothy said, "Dad, I think Phoebe is right. No matter what, we should show everyone so that they won't be anxious."
Dorothy had made up her mind to embarrass Olivia in public. So, Olivia's suggestion was right up her alley.
Jimmy looked at Dorothy and nodded. "Fine, Dolly is right. We shouldn't make everyone worry.”
Then, he turned to say to his assistant, "Get me the security footage.”
The assistant retrieved a tablet. "Mr. Quinton, it's here. However, someone tampered with the video so we can’t see who took it.”
"Where was Phoebe when this happened?”
"Mr. Quinton, we can’t find her anywhere in the video."
Upon hearing that, Jimmy stared at Olivia coldly, "Phoebe, you better give me an explanation.”
When Dorothy heard that, she curled her lips at Olivia, feeling pleased with herself.
Olivia knew that Dorothy must be behind this, trying to frame her.
Olivia took a deep breath. "Dad, are you saying I tampered with the video?"
"I don't know. I’m waiting for your explanation.”
Olivia opened her arms. "Where could I hide the necklace?”
"Dad." Dorothy grabbed Jimmy hurriedly and said, "Stop making it difficult for Phoebe. Maybe she didn't do it. Maybe I was careless, so...”
Jimmy was even more infuriated when he heard that. He then made up his mind and ordered, "Search her!"
Olivia's eyes widened and she looked at Jimmy in disbelief.
He was asking others to search her in front of so many people?
At this moment, she suddenly realized that Jimmy might have known the truth and he was doing this on purpose.
He wanted to use this opportunity to kick her and Zac out of the family and the company.
Back then, he needed them to clear his name for him and he needed Zac to help him contact the Jameson family.
Now, he had another son and married Dorothy so obediently to pave the way for him to join the Jameson family.
Moreover, Zac was crippled now!
To him, Zac had no value anymore. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
What he wanted now was to let Dorothy and the Jameson family know that he was siding with them. He could even place righteousness before family when needed.
Before Olivia could register what was going on, Jimmy's assistant came over. Someone grabbed her hand and was about to search her.
"Wait!"
Olivia gritted her teeth to look at Jimmy. "Dad, are you sure you want to do this? You want to let others search your daughter-in-law in front of so many people? The family's reputation..."
"Didn't you say you wanted to prove your innocence in front of everyone? Coincidentally, the footage was tampered with, so what else can I do aside from searching you?"
Jimmy looked at Dorothy. "You and Dolly are daughters-in-law. I can't let Dolly cry because she lost her necklace, and I can't let you suffer unredressed injustice.”
It sounded reasonable, but in reality, Jimmy was using this opportunity to humiliate her. He wanted her to admit to what she had ‘done’.
No, no way in hell!
At this moment, a tall and lean figure crossed the crowd and came to Olivia. Then, he pushed Jimmy's assistant to the ground.
"Do you always treat your daughters-in-law so differently, Mr. Quinton? I am so honored to have the chance to witness your family customs.”
