The Phantom Heiress Rising From The Shadows

Chapter 110 Chapter 110 Everyone Is A Suspect Julia paused at the entrance of the surveillance room, peeking inside with a curious gaze. She wanted to see if Ernst would find any signs of tampering with the surveillance footage.

Ernst, however, found no evidence of any tampering.

With a subtle smile, Julia quietly left the area.

She thought of Brenna's words earlier. This issue must be kept confidential, never exposed. She was to behave as if everything were normal, as any deviation might lead to suspicion.

Moving away from the surveillance room, she bumped into Rachael, who approached her with an intense expression and immediately asked, "Where have you been?" Julia let out a dismissive snort, brushing off Rachael's demand. "That's none of your concern," she said coldly Rachael's suspicion toward Julia intensified, and she said, "You were near the security and surveillance area. What were you doing there? Were you the one who ruined Miss Harper's clothes?" Julia's anxiety spiked, regretting not taking Brenna's advice seriously and her decision to check the surveillance footage, which now made Rachael suspicious of her.

Her thoughts flickered to the storage room near the surveillance room, which housed the Harper family's seldom- used belongings and daily essentials like hygiene products.

Luckily, her quick thinking had led her to take a pack of sanitary pads from the storage room earlier.

Holding them up to Rachael, she said, "I just went to get these. Why are you making such accusations? Just because there's an incident, you are paranoid. You can't accuseof something without proof." Rachael saw the sanitary pads but made no apology for her unfounded suspicion. Instead, she scolded Julia, "Why are you raising your voice at me? The incident happened, and now, everyone is a suspect. Your behavior is suspicious, so what's wrong withasking?" Julia responded sharply, "Why would anyone here be a suspect? The Harper family compensates the servants well, and we enjoy our work. No one would risk losing their job over this. Plus, Miss Rosie Harper's clothes are valued in the millions. None of us could cover that cost even if we saved for a lifetime. If a servant were responsible, they'd face jail. I doubt any servant is involved. Rachael, even if you want to impress Rosie, you should think more logically." She then rolled her eyes and walked off, muttering under her breath, "What an idiot." Rachael was seething with anger, but she couldn't deny that Julia had a valid point.

She muttered to herself, "Could it be Brenna who did this? But Brenna wasn't at hthis afternoon." 17:10 Chapter 110 Everyone is A tamperi In the surveillance room, Ernst was speaking to Rosie Holding his phone, he asked, "Should we involve the police? Rosie's day had been difficult. Her two friends had suffered beause of a reckless suggestion she made they had complained to her for hours. After persistent persuasion, she calmed them by promising addition business orders for their families, Higgins and Morrison Sylvie and Vivian eventually forgave her, further calmed by the shopping cards she provided, each loaded with a significant amount of money Rosie said, "Torget it; I'll just consider myself unlucky this time. If this becomes public, it's the Harper family that will be humiliated. It's only a few dresses, after all. Let's not bother the police " The following morning, Harlan awoke in his hospital bed, and his first act was to check the stock prices for the Moreno family on his phone. Seeing the numbers plummet filled him with anxiety Within the first hour of the market opening, his family's market value had diminished by billions, hitting the lowest trading limit! He was in disbelief, staring at his phone in shock, his anxiety mounting He said in distress, "No, no, the Moreno family is ruined! What do we do now?" Thiago's warning echoed in his mind, indicating this was only the start.

His thoughts were chaotic, and he was struggling to predict Thiago's next moves.

Trembling, he dialed Roberto, who sounded tired when he answered the call after several rings. "Harlan, what's the matter? Is your health worsening?" Roberto asked.

His voice was filled with concern and sorrow.

Gripping his phone tightly, Harlan responded, "Dad, I'm okay. But our stock value has plummeted, reaching the lowest limit. We've lost billions. You need to cup with a plan, or how will I maintain my luxurious lifestyle?" Roberto was filled with frustration and anger after hearing that "In a tlike this, when the family is in trouble, you're focused on your luxurious lifestyle instead of finding solutions!" he exclaimed.

On the phone, Roberto unleashed a stream of harsh words at his son, his anger burning strong

Yet, Harlan felt his concerns were justified. After enduring his father's lengthy scolding, he suggested an strategy to resquel the family. "Dad, you have connections with sbank managers. Why not secure a loan using our company as collateral? We must prevent bankruptcy!" he said. Roberto exploded in anger, shouting. "You fool! That's not wise. Do you want our family to go bankrupt?"

At that moment, his secretary knocked and rushed in. "Mr. Moreno, we've got a problemy. The tax officials are here. Someone has reported us for tax evasion, and they're demanding our cooperation with their investigation."
