A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo) novel Chapter 426

Regrettably, Sierra was rather careless and exposed herself to schemes and setups.

Hayley didn't intend to be a saint and let Sierra off the hook. Instead, she wanted to see whether Sierra had the right to be Theo's wife or not.

…

At that moment, Douglas managed to find Theo with a waitress' help, who effortlessly closed a business collaboration in a short amount of time.

Theo had just finished signing a contract when Douglas barged in. "I can't believe you're still shooting the breeze here. Sierra stole something, was caught red-handed, and cornered in the party hall."

He was tucking the contract away, but he stopped in his tracks. Frowning, he looked at Douglas, asking, "Who did you say stole something?"

Thinking that Theo didn't hear him, Douglas repeated themself. Then, he added urgently, "Hurry up and head over there. Make her apologize and take her away. Keep her home next time."

Theo cast an icy glance at Douglas before he addressed the CEO next to him, "I'll take my leave now. I'm needed elsewhere."

The old-timer nodded and shook Theo's hand warmly. "Alright. Let's catch up sometime."

Once they were out of the room, Theo stopped in his tracks and looked at Douglas. "How are you sure that Sierra stole something?"

Douglas looked a little lost and responded matter-of-factly, "Melody led the victim to Sierra, and she even put in some words for Sierra. So, I think I'm right about it."

Theo looked at Douglas soulfully, his eyes brimming with disappointment. Then, he headed toward the elevator wordlessly, already figuring out a way to prove Sierra's innocence.

"Theo, what's the meaning of this?" Douglas was rooted to the spot with fear when he saw Theo's gaze. By the time he came back to his senses, Theo was far away. So, he had to rush after Theo.

…

Then, a soft creak could be heard. Initially, Gordon was having a good time chatting and laughing with his guests. He was so displeased that he almost shouted at John, who opened the door to his private room.

Before he could, however, John asked anxiously, "Mr. Jones, the people downstairs are talking about calling the police. What should we do?"

Gordon was so stunned that he didn't even realize he was spilling the wine in his glass. "What's the matter? Who wants to call the police?"
