Chapter 839 Who Am I To You?

Ms. Lang was scared. Her hand that was holding the vacuum cleaner started shaking uncontrollably. "No, Ms. Leia... I don't know why the necklace is in my bag. It's a misunderstanding..."

Leia sneered and said in a sharp tone, ' Misunderstanding? Ms. Lang, my million-dollar necklace is in your bag. How could it be a misunderstanding? Are you saying that the necklace magically appeared in your bag? Do you think I can be easily fooled by you?"

Ms. Lang was upset but she held back her emotions and looked at Leia pleadingly. She was desperately trying to defend herself. "Ms. Leia, I don't know what’s going on, please believe me. If... If you don’t trust me, let's go look for Mr. and Mrs. Norman. We’ll look at the surveillance tapes..."

Leia quickly took a few photos and a video with her phone before saying, "I have evidence of your theft. I’ll call the police. The Norman residence will not allow a thief like that to stay! It seems that you didn't learn anything from the arson case involving Jillian Dove in X state that happened two years ago. The woman had been stealing from her employers when one day, she burned the mansion down. The poor wife and young son were burnt to death. I feel shivers down my spine thinking about how our family took in a poisonous snake as well..." "No, Ms. Leia, please don't call the police, please..."

Ms. Lang was drenched in a cold sweat. She was close to kneeling in front of Leia. She pleaded helplessly, "I don’t know how your necklace ended up in my handbag. Please don't accuse me of things I didn't do. Please trust me, I'm not a heinous woman like Jillian... Ms. Leia, think about it. I’ve been working in the Norman residence for nearly five years. Nothing of this sort has ever happened before. It's weird how your necklace ended up in my handbag and I don't know how to explain it now. However, please consider how hard I’ve worked for the Norman family in these past five years and forgive me. My son lost his job a few days ago. My grandson is less than a year old and his mother is not in good health. I’m the sole earner for our household. If you call the police, then my life will be over..."

Leia put her phone away and turned her eyes to Ms. Lang. "To be honest, I want to call the police and bring a thief like you to justice. However, since the necklace has been found and for the sake of your poor family and in consideration of your good working attitude, I can forgive you this once. Remember this lesson and don't mess with me!"
