Drenched in Love

Chapter 56 Why Do You Panic

On the way to work, Sophia had been thinking: Was it her problem or the guest room’s problem?

She had been drinking the night before, though she had confirmed something, and she wondered if she

had just stopped having nightmares the night before.

Sitting in front of the computer in the company, Sophia was still thinking about this problem. She did not

figure it out after thinking for a long time, and she decided to test a few more times.

That night, after finishing her work, she was the last one to leave. She locked the door, drove her car to

buy food and then back to the villa.

She swallowed her fear and slept in the guest room that Stephen had arranged for her.

It was broad daylight when she woke up. Sophia pulled up her sleeves and found the bruise on her arm This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

was about to recover, and there was no more new injury. Last night, she had no nightmares.

Sophia doubted that if she had too much mental pressure a few days ago, so she had that nightmare.

Now that she had a plan in mind, she did not have nightmares anymore.

Sophia recovered her thoughts and got ready to start the day's work. Sitting not far from, Natalia

suddenly shouted.

Everyone subconsciously looked at Natalia, “What's wrong?"

Natalia looked at the crowd, “The two thousand I put in the drawer is gone!"

"When it was time for lunch yesterday, I withdrew two thousand yuan from my bank card and was to

give it to my little niece for her birthday. I forgot to take it when I got home from work and thought it

wouldn't matter if I left it in the drawer all night, but when I opened the drawer just now, there was no

money!"

Natalia explained the details to everyone.

"That's right. I accompanied Natalia to take the money yesterday, and I saw with my own eyes Natalia

put the money into this drawer. No one had touched it until the end of the day last night." Olivia, who

had a good relationship with Natalia, added.

It meant that when she left work last night, the money was still there.

Everyone looked at each other, and someone whispered.

"Who was the last one to leave last night?" Someone asked.

"It's Sophia. When I left, Sophia was the only person in the office." Someone pointed out Sophia.

Looking at the dubious eyes of everyone, Sophia said, “I was the last one to leave, the door was locked

by me, but I did not move the drawer of Natalia, I did not steal money."

Olivia said, “We didn't say you stole the money. Why do you panic?"

Sophia, “..."

Natalia took a look at Sophia and said, “Our office is on the 8th floor, the window was burglar-proof

window, so the person who stole money should not come in from the window."

“I opened the door in the morning. When I opened the door, it was safe and undisturbed. I went home

after work last night and had been with my family. I hadn't been back to the office."

"Well..." Natalia looked at the crowd.

Olivia said, “How about this? Sophia is the last one to leave, we turn over her drawer to see if there is

money. This can exempt suspecting on Sophia, lest we misunderstand."

Jennifer, who heard Olivia's words, nodded and agreed, "It works. But to be fair, let's have a look in

everyone's drawers. Natalia, look for it carefully and see whether you put in other places and you

forgot."

That being said, Jennifer had a bad foreboding.

Sophia felt the same way.

Natalia looked for her desk again, even the computer host was taken apart to see, still no. The next

step was to rummage through other people's drawers.

After checking the drawer one by one, none was found. Finally she came to the desk of Sophia, but

she did not find it.

Both Jennifer and Sophia breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Olivia said, “Natalia, why did you open

the computer host, can money be hidden inside?"

Everyone's line of sight fell on the computer host of Sophia.

Jennifer looked at the crowd, raised her hand and ordered, “Open it. Take the computer host of Sophia

apart, prove Sophia's innocence...... before she could finish her words, Jennifer was stunned.

The host of the computer was only half taken apart, the money fell out of it. As soon as the lid of the

host was lifted, the money appeared before the crowd.

"Sophia, I did not expect it is really you! If you want to buy a new mobile phone, you can borrow money.

I'll lend it to you. Why did you steal it?"

Everybody's line of sight fell in Sophia’s phone on the desk.

In the whole office, only Sophia wore the shabbiest clothes, only Sophia used the phone that no one

would pick it up even if it was on the street.

This seemed to prove that Sophia stole the money because she wanted to buy a new phone.

Sophia shook her head in denial, “Not me. I did not steal the money and I do not know when it was

there."

Olivia came forward to collect the money. She took one of it and said to Natalia, “Natalia, this is the

money you took yesterday, see, we said yesterday about this number on it, 5678.

Without this, Sophia could say that the computer was not hers, maybe the owner of the computer

before had hidden it inside the host. But Olivia's words proved that: the money was Natalia’s, she took

it out from the bank at noon yesterday. It can't be someone else's.

"Not me." Sophia looked at Jennifer.

Jennifer frowned. She knew Sophia might be wronged, but, under the eyes of the public, the money of

Natalia was found. Jennifer felt hard to deal with it.

When Jennifer hesitated what to do, a cold voice was heard from behind. Jennifer stiffened and turned

to see Mr. Berry in a white, handmade suit.

"Mr. Berry."

Jennifer briefly told the story to Stephen.

Natalia bit her lip, and seemed to be embarrassed. After a while, she said, "Mr. Berry, it is all right since

I get my money back. Maybe I carelessly put it to the wrong place, don’t think this money has been

stolen by Sophia."

Stephen did not speak, but stared at Natalia's red lips.

Natalia noticed it and felt pleased. Once again, she bit her lips, slightly lowered head, planning to be

shyer, but did not find Stephen slightly changed his face.
