Hannah changed the subject by asking, “Nancy, how much are you planning to bid for that rock?”
“Less than fifty million,” replied Nancy.
“Aunt, the rock we will bid for is huge and weighs over a ton.”
“Let’s ignore the other smaller rocks. They don’t look promising and might even turn out to be worthless.”
Hannah nodded and replied, “Okay, understood.”
They were chatting away at the side when someone suddenly shouted in the middle of the hall, “Damn! My coin
purse is missing!”
The person screaming was Hadley.
That shout attracted everyone’s attention.
Several men walked up to help when they realized that the lady screaming was a beautiful lady with a unique aura.

Hadley looked ‘troubled’ when she replied, “That’s not possible. I double-checked everything before I left the house,
so there is no way I will leave it at home.”
Someone else added, “You are too careless, sweetie. It’s normal for thieves to wander around in a crowd like this.
It’s possible that someone has stolen it.”
“Think carefully. Did anyone get close to you?”
“Yeah! Thieves often ‘accidentally’ bump into their victims to steal their belongings.”
Suddenly, Hadley ‘thought of something’ after hearing what the crowd said. “I did bump into someone just now!”
Everyone urged her, “Do you remember what they look like?”
“Describe them to us, and we’ll help you find them.”
Hadley thought hard for a while before she said, “It was a group of three women and one man.”
“Two of the ladies were beautiful while the third one is an elderly.”
“The man looks wretched and has the eyes of a pervert. He’s obviously a bad person.”
Crack!
Zeke’s hand lost control, and he tore a piece of the wooden chair off.
“Do I look wretched and has the eyes of a pervert? You are so dead!”
Everyone started searching for the people who match that description.
That was when Hadley’s gaze ‘unintentionally’ landed in Lacey.
Then, Hadley pointed at Lacey and the others and shouted, “There they are!”
As Hadley spoke, she walked towards Lacey.
Everyone turned to Lacey too, and they had Lacey and the others surrounded.
Lacey replied nervously, “You’ve made a mistake. We didn’t steal anything.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You guys are the only ones I got close to, and my coin pouch only went missing after my encounter with you. Who
else could’ve been the thief?” insisted Hadley.
Lacey refuted, “You were the one who fell onto me, miss. I only steadied you instinctively. Is this how you repay my
kindness?”
“Besides, we’ve only been in contact for just a brief second. How could I have stolen your coin pouch within that
short time?”
“If you didn’t steal it, then you should have no problem to let me search you, right?” asked Hadley.
Even as Hadley spoke, her eyes burned with lust as she sized Lacey out.
“That thin waist, those full breasts, and that sexy butt... It would feel so good to touch her.”
“I...” Lacey was a little troubled then. She wasn’t used to being touched by strangers.
Even Zeke wasn’t given that privilege, so a complete stranger would make her even more uncomfortable.
However, Hadley became pushy. “Hah! You’re acting so guilty. You must be the thief!”
Lacey bit her lip, and she was about to agree to being searched when Zeke suddenly said, “Miss, can you please
describe your coin pouch before you do anything. We’d rather not have you search us only to have you accuse us
by claiming that one of our coin pouches is actually yours.”
