Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 558

Chapter 558:

With the damning footage, Sharon and Juliana didn’t need to intervene. The thief couldn't deny it, returning the

necklace amidst a sea of disapproving stares, tarnishing her reputation. She hung her head, unable to meet the

gaze of other guests.

Kathy smirked, her disdain palpable. In an age of advanced technology, letting someone walk off with the

necklace was impossible. The sight of these poor relatives of Madeline made her stomach churn. Clutching the

necklace, Kathy seethed at the thought of losing face in front of Norah. Oh, it would do to give that thief a piece

of her mind!

In the dressing room, Madeline beamed at the recovered necklace.

“Kathy, do a final sweep of your things. The ceremony’s about to begin.”

As the makeup artist added the finishing touches, Madeline contained her excitement, reminding Kathy with a

hint of urgency.

Kathy secured the necklace and began her check. But to her horror, the wedding rings were nowhere to be

found.

Panic set in. How did this happen?

Zara had left, leaving Ursula behind with her children.

“Could something else have gone missing? Madeline, your future sister-in-law seems rather unreliable. Why did

you entrust her with something so important?” Ursula’s cutting remark caught Kathy off guard. She hadn't

anticipated that the rings would vanish after her retrieving the necklace.

“The wedding rings are gone!” Madeline's panic mirrored Kathy's. The rings symbolized everything about the

wedding. How could they simply disappear?

“Kathy, search again. They were there before you left.”

“Yes, did anyone enter the dressing room after | left? They must still be here.”

“No, only Ursula and Zara stopped by to see me.” Kathy fixed Ursula with a pointed stare. “Well, that narrows it

down to either Ursula or Zara!”

“Kathy, you're accusing without evidence!” Ursula unleashed a torrent of harsh words in front of her children,

leaving Kathy speechless.

In the end, under Madeline's mediation, Kathy retrieved the ring box from Lucian’s pocket.

Lucian hid behind his mother, muttering, “I just thought it was pretty and wanted to give it to Mom.”

He showed no concern for the distress he had caused Kathy and Madeline. His earlier endearing demeanor was

merely a ploy to lower the adults’ guard.

Madeline's expression hardened as she escorted Ursula and her children out, nursing resentment. Not everyone

in the family had her best interests at heart.
