The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 188

The Heiress’s Second Chance at Vengeance

Chapter 188 The Fall of a Liar

When Eliza saw the headline, she feigned surprise. “What’s this?”

“You don’t know?” one classmate said eagerly. “Your sister took your place as the Sue family’s Ms. Cassandra.”

More classmates gathered around her, crowding close.

“You seriously haven’t seen it? It’s blowing up online right now.”

“Yeah, I can’t believe the Rivers family was bold enough to pull something like this. Eliza, you’ve really been wronged.”

Eliza took the phone from the classmate. The internet was full of accusations–accusations against Naomi and the Rivers family.

She put on a troubled look and said, “There must be some misunderstanding. I’m not the Sue family’s daughter. My parents would never do something like this to me, right?”

“How not? They clearly did everything to turn their own daughter into the Sue family’s heiress!”

“I never liked Naomi. She’s nothing like a real heiress anyway.”

As everyone was still talking, Naomi walked in from the hallway.

She immediately noticed the strange atmosphere–everyone’s stares were different from yesterday.

Naomi frowned. “What are you all looking at?”

The Sue family bodyguards were still behind her, but the other students quickly retreated to their seats and pretended not to see her.

It was the first time she’d been given the cold shoulder like this. Confused, she sat down.

She still didn’t know what had happened.

She’d already made up her mind this morning to mess with Eliza again.

Stretching out her hand with a deliberate sigh, she said loudly, “Ugh, my pink diamond ring from yesterday is missing. I think I left it right here on this desk.”

“Naomi, we don’t even have fixed classrooms. If you just left it out, who’s supposed to know where it is?”

“You don’t get it,” Naomi replied smugly. “Christian loves me. He had the principal arrange a special desk and lounge chair just for me. Anytime I have class, someone moves my furniture to the room in advance. That’s why I felt safe leaving my ring there. But maybe someone stole it.”

Her eyes turned to Eliza. “And I think Eliza’s the most suspicious one. After all, she was the only one who touched my ring yesterday. She acted like she didn’t want it, but maybe she secretly stole it to sell.”

She arched a brow, clearly enjoying herself. “You guys don’t know this, but my sister used to be dirt poor.

She always stole things. Maybe she’s short on cash again and thought she could make a quick buck.”

Finished

Naomi even sighed regretfully. “Eliza, you really shouldn’t steal. If you liked the ring that much, you could’ve just told me. Maybe I would’ve given it to you.”

Her smug tone made the whole class uncomfortable.

These students were all from wealthy families. They could buy anything they liked and had no need to steal. Which is why they especially hated accusations like Naomi’s.

A classmate frowned. “Naomi, that’s going too far.”

“I’m not going too far,” Naomi replied. “I’m just saying what I suspect.”

She stood. “Unless she lets me check.”

She walked right up to Eliza. “As long as I don’t find the ring on her, I’ll believe she didn’t take it.”

Everyone looked at each other uncertainly.

Eliza, unusually quiet, finally said, “Go ahead. Search me. I didn’t steal anything.”

Naomi smiled victoriously. “I knew you’d say that. Come on, someone search her.”

But none of the bodyguards moved.

Naomi said sweetly, “She’s a girl, after all. I’ll do it myself.”
