Chapter 234
Amelia didn't get the money, so she resorted to robbery.
Millions of followers witnessed this incident during the live stream.
Regardless of whether she denied it, the internet held a record of the crime.Hence, it was futile if she refused to admit her mistake.
"I'm here to get my bag back, Officer White" said Katherine.

From the moment she entered, she had never looked at Amelia.
Officer White held the bag that they managed to retrieve and handed it to Katherine.She then took out the items one at a time in front of them.
Sure enough, the cash and the necklace that Katherine wanted to give Alice had disappeared.She went over the items pretty quickly.
Katherine glanced at Amelia, then put the things back into the bag before stating, "Officer White, when I first came to report the case, I already gave a list of the items inside my bag.I believe you have a record of that when you took my statement.For the missing items, you should know better than me."
Officer White initially wanted to discuss this with Katherine in private.
Now, he was embarrassed and choked up as he searched for the right words to explain the situation.
"Miss Wilson, when we found your - the suspect, the necklace had been sold’ he stammered.
Katherine smiled as she packed her belongings.
"It doesn't matter.My lawyer will come later.You can discuss the rest of the details with him.Thank you for helping me get my bag back."
Katherine did not look like a person whose bag had been stolen.She spoke calmly with a smile on her face from beginning to end.
The complainant was too gorgeous.
Officer White gazed at her beautiful face while he listened to Katherine as she expressed her gratitude.
He was tongue-tied and only managed to nod his head.
"Okay! Seeing that she was about to leave, Amelia was a little anxious and yelled, "Damn girl! Where are you going? Come back here! I am your grandmother! Carrick is your uncle! Are you really going to sue us and put us in jail? If you dare to do this, aren't you afraid that your mother will be angry and haunt you from the grave?"
Katherine came to a halt by the entrance, her expression slightly changing.She turned around and gave Amelia an icy glare.
"That would be great.I would love to have a chat with my mother"
"You - you bitch! I should have strangled you to death!" Amelia hollered in rage.
No matter how much she shouted, Katherine had already left with her bag.
Officer White couldn't stand her cries.
"Be quiet! Mrs.Wilson, you'd better be honest.Who did you sell the necklace to? Where did you hide the cash? Do you know that theft of over 30,000 dollars is enough for you to spend the rest of your life in incarceration? You are elderly.The judge may give you some clemency, but your son, Carrick, is an
accomplice.If you don't cooperate with our investigation or insist on denying your guilt and maintaining your bad attitude, your son will be imprisoned for seven to eight years!"
Officer White warned Amelia of what they would be facing once convicted of the crime.
Officer White's words hit Amelia at her soft spot, and she took his words to heart.She didn’t care about what she was about to face.
After all, she was already seventy-plus years old, and it might not be too difficult if she were to stay in prison.
However, since this matter involved Carrick, she suddenly felt like a deflated balloon.
Amelia couldn't accept the thought of her son going to jail.
"What 30,000 dollars? Wasn't it just some cheap necklace? I sold it for only 3,000 dollars.Officer, I didn't lie to you.The money is in my daughter-in-law's account!"
Amelia was ignorant and had no knowledge of how to assess jewelry.
She only knew that the necklace was well packaged.She bit it to test its quality and felt that it was not worth more than 3,000 dollars.She even thought that she had picked up a bargain.
She did not expect that the necklace would cost more than 30,000 dollars! Officer White stopped trying to persuade Amelia when she started criticizing Katherine.
He decided to focus on his investigation instead.
"Where is the necklace now?" he probed.
This time, Amelia became honest.
She had divulged everything, but when she confessed, she could not help but put the blame on Katherine again.
Officer White could not help but reprimand, "Mrs.Wilson, let me remind you, if you scold Miss Wilson like this, it is considered libel and slander.
If Miss Wilson pursues the matter and files a lawsuit, you will have to make a public apology and compensate her"
Amelia's face turned pale after hearing the officer's reminder.
This time, she decided to come out clean.
