Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty

"The diamond necklace is missing!"

Everyone noticed the shop assistant because of her loud voice, and the store manager, Merrick Cardenal, ran over after hearing that.

"What? The necklace was placed on the counter. How could it go missing?"

"What's wrong? Which necklace is missing?"

Then, the shop assistant hurriedly pointed at Yolanda and said, "It was… It was the necklace that she wanted to try on just now…"

"How did you raise your kids, Mrs. Henderson? Even if she liked the necklace, she shouldn't have stolen it!"

In the meantime, Zora reacted swiftly and accused Yolanda of stealing the necklace.

All the shop assistants around them immediately looked at Yolanda.

Though there was no evidence to prove that Yolanda stole it, she was still a suspect.

They thought that Yolanda had stolen the necklace because Diana refused to buy it for her even though she liked it.

"She's doing something illegal at a young age. Do you know how to educate your child, Mrs. Henderson?"

"Well, that's expected. After all, she entered the juvenile detention center once. So, she's used to stealing things," Zora said.

After that, the shop assistant and manager looked very serious.

At the same time, Harvey looked in their direction curiously.

When Diana saw that, she panicked. "Yolanda, return the necklace right now!"

She was afraid that the incident would affect the Hendersons' reputation. Since she was angry and anxious, she almost slapped Yolanda instinctively.

However, Harvey suddenly spoke up. "You can't accuse someone without any evidence. There are surveillance cameras in the shop, so you can just check them."

Diana calmed down once she heard what Harvey said. Still, she continued to look at Yolanda repulsively.

At that moment, she wished that she'd strangled the latter to death during her birth.

After inhaling deeply, Diana calmly declared, "Admit your mistake now! You'll be able to amend your mistakes once you return the necklace. If the shop calls the police after checking the surveillance footage, I won't be able to help you!"

She tried her best to remain calm to show Harvey that she could act rationally, even when the issue involved her family members.

"I didn't steal the necklace, so I won't be afraid if they check the cameras," Yolanda replied indifferently.

Diana gritted her teeth. "Why are you so disobedient?"

Zora's smile deepened. "It seems that you aren't going to admit your mistakes until it's too late! You're the only one in the shop who would do this.

"Who else would be able to steal the necklace apart from you?"

Zora made the right choice to go shopping that day! Because of this incident, Harvey would have a bad impression of the Henderson family.

In the past, Yvonne had always been better than her daughter. However, this situation won't happen again in the future!

"Are you going to embarrass yourself here?" Diana didn't want the staff to check the surveillance cameras.

She was certain that Yolanda had stolen the necklace. If the latter returned the necklace, they would just be humiliated in the end.

But if the staff were to check the cameras, things would become troublesome!

School was starting soon, so she didn't want this incident to affect Yvonne's reputation on campus.

Besides, to protect her reputation in her social circle, Diana needed to send Yolanda to a good school.

She had initially planned to bribe a private school so that Yolanda would be able to enter it two days later. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Now, everything was ruined! Everything was utterly ruined!

Which institution would accept a young girl with a criminal record who kept stealing things?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. As such, Diana wanted to slap Yolanda.

However, Zora stopped her pretentiously. "Oh, Mrs. Henderson. Don't be too angry. You have to educate your child properly. Yolanda wasn't evil from birth.

"If you used your free time to teach your daughter how to be a good person instead of going out all day, she wouldn't turn out like this."

Diana pushed Zora away. "Don't interfere in this!"

Then, she warned Yolanda, "If you admit your mistakes now, I'll pretend this never happened. But, if you insist on behaving badly, I won't care about you anymore. The Henderson family wouldn't want a terrible daughter like you!"

Yolanda's expression turned indifferent. "Do you not understand what I said? I told you that I didn't steal it."

Her words made Diana so mad that she started trembling. "You're not going to admit it? Alright! Let's check the surveillance footage then!"

Just then, the staff who went to check the cameras approached them hurriedly. "Mr. Cardenal, the cameras have stopped working. We can't check the footage from this morning."

"Why did this happen? Are the people from the technology department going to fix it?" Merrick asked worriedly.

"They are fixing the problem now. However, the hard disk has malfunctioned. Even if they fixed the cameras, we won't be able to get the footage."

Zora laughed softly. "So, there's no evidence now? Haha! Looks like someone will benefit from this!"

"What do you mean by no evidence?" Yolanda looked at Zora coldly.

After that, she slowly took out a phone from her pocket. The phone had been used by the original Yolanda before she entered the juvenile detention center.

It was a smartphone that no one used anymore, but Yolanda was a great hacker, so she'd be able to find out the truth so long as the phone wasn't broken.

"Why did you take out your phone? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?" Diana roared.

Yolanda ignored Diana and typed on her phone seriously. Two minutes later, she looked up and passed the phone to Merrick.

"What is this?" The latter took the phone curiously.

After seeing the image on its screen, he was stunned. "Isn't this the footage from our store's cameras?"

Everyone surrounded the phone and tried to look at the video. At the same time, Zora stared at the others in shock.

Suddenly, she felt that something bad was going to happen.

However, she didn't believe that Yolanda would be able to get surveillance footage from the shop.

After hesitating for a while, she approached the phone.

The video started from the moment Yolanda and Diana entered the shop.

Merrick stared at the video seriously. A while later, everyone saw the shop assistant, who served Yolanda, place the missing necklace in between the two counters.

Just then, Zora appeared.

Since another staff member was hurriedly attending to her, she accidentally bumped into the counter.

Thus, the necklace dropped into the gap between the two counters and was stuck there.

Once she saw that, Zora was utterly embarrassed, while Diana froze in shock.

Not only did she wrongfully accuse Yolanda, but she also seemed very domineering in front of Harvey.

What was she going to do? Would Harvey get mad at Yvonne because of this?

"Move the counters away!" Merrick urgently ordered his staff.

Soon after, the counters were moved away. Everyone saw the missing necklace which was stuck in a corner.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't realize this…" the shop assistant apologized.

"Be careful next time!" Merrick warned.

Then, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he didn't accuse Yolanda of stealing the necklace. Otherwise, the Hendersons might have sued the shop for framing their customers.

In the meantime, Zora, who had been humiliated, hesitated for a while. She asked unhappily, "How did she get the surveillance footage of the shop? Isn't this fake?"

"This is the surveillance footage. The position fits the angle of the shop cameras perfectly. Moreover, how could she fake the evidence in such a short time?" Diana retorted hurriedly.

Though she didn't know how Yolanda found the footage, she had to mend her reputation in front of Harvey.

After looking at Yolanda, Harvey suddenly exclaimed, "You're so smart though you're a young girl! How did you find the surveillance footage within a short period? Have you learned how to hack

before this?"

He was filled with admiration for Yolanda, for he was the only one in the shop who knew how skilled her hacking skills were.

It wasn't just because Yolanda retrieved the surveillance footage within that period. But because Merrick had mentioned earlier that the videos from the shop cameras were gone.

So, Yolanda had to fix the footage before she could retrieve it.

She hacked into the shop's cameras, found the bug in its system, recovered the footage, and retrieved the surveillance videos in just a few minutes.

Harvey knew that less than ten hackers were as intelligent as her in Havaria!

Yolanda looked at Harvey calmly and said, "This isn't difficult for me."

Then, she turned to look at Zora and said intimidatingly, "Apologize to me now!"
