Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 575

I stared at my phone screen for ten minutes under the tree. When my screen darkened, I'd touch it again until it lit up. Finally, when the photo turned dim once again, I ran.

I needed the answer. A lot of unanswered questions were plaguing my love life. I wanted to find the truth. I hailed a cab and went to the luxury boutique. A middle-aged man was walking in, and two rows of beautiful women in uniform greeted him courteously.

I made a beeline for the accessories area. The shop attendant glanced at me and recognized me right away. Then, she let out a sigh. "You must be the girl from yesterday. What a shame. A guy bought the bracelet for his girlfriend. I know you must regret it a lot, but I can't do anything about it now."

Perhaps to demonstrate how stellar her promotional skill was, the staff member rambled on and gave away the details of the whole transaction, save the personal information of the buyer. I didn't even need to ask her.

According to her, a very handsome man came to buy the bracelet. He didn't even flinch at the price and bought the bracelet with his card. He then told her that he wanted a pretty package because it was for her girlfriend.

"Since he was such a handsome and loyal boyfriend, I gave him the best box in the boutique. I told you the bracelet looked good on you. And now, it's worn by another woman.

"It's a limited-edition bracelet too. There are only two of them in Jinovy. The other one was bought before it was put on display here. Oh, well."

After putting two and two together, I thought I figured out the whole thing. Colin bought the bracelet for me. When he was about to give it to me, he realized that the bracelet was missing.

But Jasmine had it now. There was no way Colin gave it to her, which meant there were only two possible theories. One, Jasmine bought the bracelet herself. Two, Colin somehow met with Jasmine behind my back and she stole it from him.

I'd rather believe the second option. After all, while the bracelet wasn't expensive, it wasn't cheap either. There was a word in law that described the action of taking someone's property without permission—larceny.
