As I caught a glimpse of the sheer shock and terror on Mandy’s face, a smug smile crept onto my lips. I replied, taking my time, “Are you surprised?”

Mandy, clearly flustered, looked away and defiantly shot back, “What’s surprising about this?”

She tried to walk away, but I seized her arm, keeping her from escaping. “Hold on! You’re the one who stole it, aren’t you?”

Despite her protests, her anxiety was growing stronger by the second. “What are you talking about? What stealing?”

I couldn’t help but smirk. “If you didn’t take anything, why did you bolt when everyone was about to check for fingerprints? And why did you rush over here when you heard someone mention checking the security footage?”

Mandy stood her ground. “I was just passing by.”

I shrugged dismissively. “I knew you wouldn’t confess, but the facts are clear. What do you think will happen if I give this evidence to the police?”

Her complexion turned ashen. “What evidence? Where did you even get any?”

I regarded her as if she were a performer failing miserably at a comedy act. “Everyone slips up, Mandy. Do you truly believe I’m just making this up?”
