Chapter 142: What a Jinx!
Hearing this, how could Rita not take it to heart? No wonder Sharon wore loose clothes every day in
Lumiere Jewelry.
Rita thought it was strange before, so it was because Sharon was pregnant.
After a pause, Rita asked tentatively, “Miss Beale, are you saying the Proctor’s? The Proctor of the
Proctor Group?”
“Yes”
After hanging up the phone, Natalia looked out of the window and slowly smiled.
Sometimes, she just needed to pass the message, and someone would do the work for her.
Ever since Jameson came back to live, although the atmosphere in the Proctor’s had become much
more depressed, Sharon felt that the lifeless days had become much livelier.
Every day, she could be pissed off for different reasons.
She didn’t know why that jerk was suddenly so idle.
He was at the Proctor’s every day instead of going to the company.
If he had nothing to do, he would just cause some trouble for her.
Time flew, there were only a few days left before Albert’s birthday banquet.
The closer the time was, the more nervous Sharon became, fearing that there would be twists and
turns in the middle.
However, unexpected things happened all the time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTwo days before the birthday banquet, the police received an anonymous report that someone from
the Proctor family was taking drugs.
When the police arrived at the Proctor’s, Albert’s face turned ugly.
“It’s nonsense! This is ridiculous!”
The policeman apologized, “Mr.Proctor, this matter has caused quite a stir.The reporters have also
received the news.We are only doing our job.Once it is proved to be a false report, we will trace the
source of the report and give you an explanation.”
“Then go ahead! Search every place! Our family has been in business for several generations.We
are decent, and none of us has ever touched anything harmful or done anything harmful.Now,
someone dare to report a false case about me.I want to see who has the guts to do so!”
Albert said angrily.
“Yes, Mr.Proctor, you are right.”
The policeman added, “I have to trouble you to have you family cooperate with us to doa test.Then
we can prove that you are innocent.”
Although Albert was unhappy, if he refused now, it would make them look guilty, which was exactly
the man behind this wanted to see.
Immediately after, all the Proctors left behind samples for testing.
The policeman said, “Thank you for your cooperation, everyone.Is there anyone who hasn’t been
tested?”
Erica hugged her chest and said disdainfully, “Sharon is still upstairs.”
Albert glanced at the servant beside him and said, “Go get her.’
“Yes”
The servant answered and left.
In the bushes not far away, two reporters took advantage of the servants busy collecting samples to
sneak in, nervous and excited.
Although they didn’t dare to cause trouble for the Proctor family, someone told them that this would
be an explosive headline.
If the news was spread out, not only would they become famous, they would also earn the money
that was enough for the rest of their life.
Upstairs.
Sharon was taking a nap.
After being woken up by the knock on the door, she heard from the servant that police were
investigating drug abuse here.
She was still dumbfounded.
It took a long time for her to regain her senses.
“I see.I’ll change clothes immediately and go down.”
After the servant left, she walked to the window and saw that there were quite a few people
standing in the garden downstairs and two police cars parked.
It seemed to be quite a commotion.
After Sharon went downstairs, she registered first.
When the police asked her about her relationship with the Proctor family, she was stunned for a
moment and didn’t know how to answer.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlbert didn’t seem to want to make her identity public, so he said impatiently, “We are not going
anywhere.Just do the test.If you have any questions, ask me.”
Jeffery said in a deep voice, “Erica.”
“What? I didn’t say anything wrong.Did this happen before? Ever since she moved in, nothing good
has happened.”
Just as Jeffery was about to say something, Albert said, “Jeffery, give Erica a break.”
The implication was that he agreed with Erica’s words and vented his anger on Sharon.
Erica was even meaner when she heard that someone was supporting her.
“She annoys people and brings bad luck to them wherever she goes.”
Albert snorted coldly and returned to his room with his walking stick.
Erica was about to leave when Jeffery stopped her and said, “Erica, apologize to Sharon.’
“I won’t, Uncle Albert already said…”
“Apologize.”
Erica had never seen Jeffery’s attitude so strong before.
She immediately hesitated and After the servants dispersed, Erica looked at Sharon and mocked,
“What a jinx.”
Jeffery said in a deep voice, “Erica.”
