Chapter 428 A Smart Person

The bodyguard standing behind Linda said, “Ms. Yancey, we’ve called the police. They’re on their way here.”

“What use will they be?” Linda shrieked, clearly displeased.

The police would come, open the case, interrogate suspects and investigate the matter. Even if they manage to find the stolen diamonds, so what?

Could her show wait till then?

“Melanie, what do you mean?”

Linda was pinning all her hopes on Melanie.

Melanie sniffed out the entire safe thoroughly, and turned around to say, “I smell a lingering scent on the safe, which smells like a mix of perfume and tobacco. If you can gather everyone here and line them up with a gap in between each person, I’ll be able to quickly pinpoint who touched that

safe. That’ll make the matter easier to investigate.”

Linda’s eyes lit up. “How could I forget the talent that you are?”

She chuckled, and instructed the bodyguard behind her, “Make everyone line up and await

checks!”

“Yes!”

The bodyguards split up to maintain an orderly queue. Melanie led Annie and Linda to an empty room, where all three of them sat down.

Now that things were quieter, Linda turned to look at Melanie and asked, “How confident are you about this? There are so many people here. I’m sure it’s not easy to identify the scent!”

Linda’s right–hand man suggested, “Why don’t I call Mr. Wright and Ms. Murray who are the prime suspects here, and let you see if they are the ones?”

“Don’t,” Melanie said with a quick shake of her head.
