"Stephen came back in such a rush that day that I could barely get a word out of him. When I asked what was wrong, he wouldn't tell me a thing."Koven's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "Did he mention anything? What did he say?""Oh, that's right! He did say something." The security guard tried to recall. "He told me if anyone asked why the security camera was crooked, I shouldn't tell them. But since it's the boss asking, I think I should be honest.""You did the right thing," Koven said quickly. "Stephen might be working with Lacee. Call him now. Tell him there's a company reward and everyone needs to be there. Don't say anything else."The security guard grabbed his phone and dialed right away.After the call, he turned to Koven. "All done. He sounded really happy. He'll be here in 15 minutes, tops."Koven nodded and glanced at Hudson.Hudson looked worried. "Are we sure it's him? If we're wrong about Stephen, it's going to be pretty embarrassing. We don't have any proof. Isn't

"So, what do we do now? Since the truth is out, should we go talk to Lacee?" Lucy asked."We can't just go talk to Lacee now. We've done our homework, and if we confront her now, she'll just keep denying everything. We don't have any solid proof because we don't have any surveillance footage. It's not like we're just gonna bring the guy over and have him confess in front of Lacy, right?" Koven explained.Hudson looked a bit taken aback and then asked, "Why not just bring the guy to Lacee? If we have him point her out in front of everyone, wouldn't that solve the problem? Why overcomplicate things?"Koven could not help but worry about Lucy's and Hudson's critical thinking."Guys, think about it, will you? There's no sign of Lacee on the surveillance footage, so what good would it do to drag Stephen in front of them and have him accuse her? Plus, if Lacee says we made it all up, everyone will believe her over us. "Use your heads, guys," Koven said, shooting Hudson a look of frustr

"Come on, it's time to get some answers. If we wait any longer, we'll miss our chance at the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show," Koven said before stepping out of the car.Lucy, with a big box in her arms, and Hudson, following close behind, headed for the venue's entrance.Lacee turned and saw the three at the entrance. She was completely caught off guard. A shiver shot up her spine, her face scrunched up in worry, and her hands would not stop shaking.She knew she had to face whatever was coming. She would just take it one step at a time.Right then, there was a knock at the door.Lacee inhaled deeply, plastered on a fake smile, and faced the door where Lucy, Hudson, and Koven stood."Can I help you with something? If not, please leave. I need to rest," Lacee said emotionlessly.However, Koven did not say a word. He just walked in, sat down, and stared at Lacee. "I'm really curious. Do you want to know what we've found out?" he asked and watched her closely, waiting for her to re

"This necklace was custom-made by my mother and given to me as a gift. It's one-of-a-kind because the designer has passed away. It's a haute couture piece that was never publicly revealed. "After my mother had it made, she gave it to me directly. No one else knows about it because of its unique design."I was at home that day, thinking about what my outfit was missing, when I spotted this necklace. That's why I decided to use it as a waist chain."Just as Lucy was about to continue speaking, Lacee interrupted her. "That necklace set should be with me! It's obviously mine!" Lacee blurted out, wanting to say that Lucy had stolen the necklace from her own house. She did not realize that Koven and Hudson were in on the truth.Koven was quick to set the record straight."Lacee, could you at least think before you lie? Hudson and I were with Lucy when she picked up this necklace from her house."As Koven's words hung in the air, everyone turned to stare at Lacee, their eyes wide wit

A doctor came out and pulled down his mask."Who's the patient's family member?"Hearing that, Matthew stepped forward and said, "I'm her husband. How is she doing?"The doctor saw how worried he looked and let out a sigh. "Your wife and child are both fine. She had a little bleeding from the fall, but she's better now. She'll be back on her feet in two or three days. Don't worry!" he said gently.With that, the doctor left. A bunch of people were about to hurry in to check on Lucy, but a nurse stopped them. "Only her husband can go in for now. Lucy needs her rest, and too many visitors might wake her. One at a time, please." Matthew nodded and went inside. Hudson and Koven were concerned, but since Matthew was with her, they stayed back. That was when Koven noticed Selena standing alone in a corner. Koven walked over to her. "Hey, don't beat yourself up. None of this is your fault. It's all Lacee." Selena looked up at Koven and gave a small nod. "I never thought Lacee wo
