Everyone in the store also turned to look at her curiously.

“Is she a thief?”

“She doesn’t look like one…”

Natalie frowned slightly and was even more confused.

“Miss, have you taken anything that you haven’t paid for?” The manager smiled politely.

With an embarrassed look, the manager leaned closer and whispered, “Miss, please tell us the truth, or we will have no choice but to frisk you.”

Just then, Elaine sauntered over.

“Hey, what’s that in your pocket?” Pretending to be shocked, Elaine pointed at the pocket of Natalie’s coat.

Natalie frowned and fished her hand into her pocket. Sure enough, there was something inside. To her surprise, she pulled out a wallet.

With a puzzled look, Elaine pointed at an empty spot on the shelf and said to the manager, “Look over there. Are you missing a wallet?”
