Starting Chapter 124 of "My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious": Chapter 124: Chapter 124 The Necklace is Lost When Chen Ran walked out, she spotted... See what happens next!
Chapter 124: Chapter 124 The Necklace is Lost When Chen Ran walked out, she spotted something shiny near the corner of the wall. Her eyes flickered, and she quickly picked it up. Upon closer inspection, her heart started pounding wildlyâwasnât this... the Sapphire Necklace? Qin Miaomiao returned to the hall and, upon seeing Lu Qing, instinctively touched her neck. Her hand frozeâher necklace was gone!
Her face instantly went pale. Lu Qing approached her, noticing her distress, and asked suspiciously, "Whatâs wrong?"
"The necklace is missing."
Lu Qingâs expression darkened immediately. He summoned Han Shu and instructed, "Inform President He that Iâve lost something valuable. Seal off all exitsâno one, whether man or woman, is allowed to leave."
"Understood, President."
Since it was a private auction with only a handful of attendees and no invited reporters, He Cheng, upon hearing that Lu Qing had lost something, immediately ordered all passageways to be sealed.
Qin Miaomiao knew the value of this necklace, especially since it was a gift from Lu Qing. If it was lost, how was she going to explain this to him?
She quickly thought back to the places she had been and suddenly remembered bumping into Chen Ran earlier near the restroom entrance. She leaned close to Lu Qingâs ear and whispered a few words.
Lu Qingâs gaze turned cold as he instructed He Cheng to pull up the surveillance footage from that period near the restroom.
It was clear. After Qin Miaomiao left, Chen Ran seemed to have picked up something at the entrance. Though the footage wasnât very clear and it was hard to tell exactly what she picked up, Qin Miaomiao was a hundred percent certainâit was her necklace!
Chen Ran was quickly brought over. The moment she saw Lu Qing, she appeared visibly nervous.
"Miss Chen, please hand over the item you picked up at the entrance."
Chen Ran played the innocent, pretending not to understand, "I donât know what youâre talking about."
"Miss Chen, you must have picked up a necklace near the restroom entrance. Kindly hand it over."
Chen Ranâs heart jolted, but her face instantly turned hostile as she raised her voice, "Qin Miaomiao, stop slandering me! You lost your own thing and now youâre blaming others? Be careful, or Iâll sue you for defamation! If you know whatâs good for you, let me leave now, orâ"
Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Qingâs cold glare silenced her, leaving her too scared to utter another word.
"Han Shu,
