Chapter 78 Adriana strikes back
“I know the model number of my own watch, of course. It’s the ROLEX SKY-DWELLER series 72415, the new model that just came out.”
Alonso answered with a confident and winning attitude.
“Oh, that’s a good memory.”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Adriana raised her hand and brushed Brenden’s arm away, walked up to him and asked, “Since it’s new, it must be a recent purchase. Where’s the invoice?”
“Invoice … invoice, I didn’t ask for an invoice at the time.”
At the mention of the invoice, Alonso’s face clearly flashed a little unnatural.
“There is no invoice, the shopping slip should be there. Or rather, show evidence of your shopping, otherwise how do I know if you’re lying to me.”
Adriana pursued the question.
“Evidence? This …” Alonso looked slightly nervous and pointed at her, “If you took the watch, you took it, so what’s the point of all this irrelevant talk? Besides, my colleagues all saw me wearing that watch.”
“Yeah, yeah, I did see that Alonso had a new watch.”
“I saw it, too.”
“Adriana, what exactly are you trying to say?”
“What kind of mentality is it to take the watch and not want to admit it?”
…
The crowd was talking, and you echoed one thing and another.
Even Minister Nelson Dean was pretty sure he saw Alonso’s new watch.
“What’s all the excitement about? I’m just determining how much your watch cost when you purchased it so you don’t take advantage of the opportunity to extort me for a sum.”
“I’ve thrown all those things away, so where would I leave them.”
“A full $350, 000 watch with a single bill saying throw it away?” Adriana expressed doubt.
“It doesn’t matter if you want a bill or not for a nationally insured watch.”
“Oh. That’s right.” Adriana thought about it thoughtfully, “I have another method that might work. You swiped three hundred and fifty thousand, there should be card information, you can retrieve the bank information for me to see.”
Initially, Adriana knew it was a false accusation, so how could she willingly let Alonso succeed?
Hearing her, Alonso changed his expression and immediately changed his tone, “The watch is now also available in installments.”
“In the information age, there are records of anything you stage, let alone a $350, 000 watch.”
“I …”
Alonso was about to say something else when he was immediately interrupted by Adriana, who asked Alonso, “How much do you want?”
The sudden change in attitude was a slight dismay to all.
But Alonso was so ecstatic that he lost his mind. “Given that you admit it so positively, and we are colleagues, you will give me 300, 000.”
Adriana was slightly embarrassed, her eyes flickered slightly and she gazed at the minister Nelson Dean, “Is it true that I can’t stay in the company until the theft case is solved?”
Her sudden change of temperament confused Nelson a bit.
The corners of his eyes are slightly skewed, glancing at Peter, seeing him silent, seemingly acquiescent.
Immediately nodded and said aloud, “According to the company’s rules, if this matter is not handled properly, you cannot stay in the company.”
“Okay, I admit it.”
Adriana sighed, nodded, and asked Alonso, “Give me the bank card account number.”
Things shifted so much that Alonso had a moment of confusion and immediately took his bank card out of his wallet and handed it to Adriana, “Put it in this card.”
“Okay, I’ll concede.”
She pretended to look aggrieved.
Peter and Brenden were puzzled by the sudden move, but knew that Adriana would not be one to admit defeat easily.
Stand aside with interest and watch from the wall.
“Oh my God, Adriana is really a thief?”
“Can’t see it.”
“It’s so shameless.”
“A bitch is a bitch, I don’t know what Mr. Alston sees in her.”
…
While the crowd was talking, Adriana had already transferred the money to Alonso, “It’s been transferred, we’re clear.”
Raising his phone, the screenshot of the transfer was shown to Alonso to make sure it was correct.
However, just as her words fell, a loud noise rang out from outside.
“Did you call the police? What happened?”
Suddenly a few uniformed police officers came in outside the office hall, sizing up a few people with a serious look, and asked, “Which one of you called the police?”
“I was the one who called the police.”
Adriana snorted at the police, “Comrade police, he’s the one who insisted that I stole his watch.”
Facing the police, Adriana’s attitude seemed delicate and pitiful, crying, “Everyone here says I stole the watch, and they want me to pay for it. But I really did not steal his watch, so I had to give him 300, 000 yuan to settle the matter.”
One of the four policemen at the head was quite puzzled, “That’s strange, if you didn’t steal the watch, why did you give money?”
“Oooh …”
Adriana tears like rain, choking sobbing: “The minister and our president said that this matter is not handled well on the company’s influence is not good, but also not let me into the company to work. But … but I have no evidence to prove that I did not steal the watch, in order to keep people from scolding me behind my back, I had to do this, oooh …”
In front of the police, she deliberately reached out and pointed to Peter and Minister Nelson Dean, deliberately talking about herself aggrieved.
“Really?”
The policeman touched his police cap and his sharp gaze met Peter’s, “Mr. Alston, your company has such a rule?”
“No.”
Peter’s face was extremely ugly and he denied it.
“You’re full of shit!”
Adriana brushed her sleeve to wipe the tears on her cheeks, took her phone and handed it to the police, “Comrade police, I have recorded it all. There is a recording to prove it.”
“You …!”
Even though Peter was smart as hell, he didn’t expect Adriana to record.
Instead of being counted, not to mention how depressed the mood is.
But the person who was most afraid was Alonso.
He never thought Adriana really called the police, facing the police comrades, his face gray, his body can not stop trembling, forehead sweat overflowing, “How big a thing, you … you even called the police? Adriana, we are all colleagues, private can be resolved. ”
“Why do you want everyone to know when you can solve it privately?” She was red-eyed, “We as lawyers know very well that theft or extortion of property worth more than three hundred thousand is a felony with a minimum ten-year sentence, and I don’t want to go to jail.”
Sobbed a few times and continued, “People … have several decades in their lives. Alonso we are still young, after ten years, we are really old, oooh …”
Her words were meaningful and confusing to her colleagues.
But Alonso blushed a few more degrees of white.
Brenden counted completely understand Adriana’s meaning, looked at her meaningfully, smiled mysteriously.
I’ll make sure he goes to jail if he dares to accuse her.”
Who is Brenden?
The people at the top of The Alston Family are incredibly powerful and strong.
By him A sentence scared Alonso’s body went soft, immediately, kneeling on the ground, hands grabbed Adriana’s suit pants, begging for mercy: “Adriana, I was wrong, I was wrong …”
