The Phantom Heiress Rising From The Shadows novel Chapter 110

Chapter 110 Everyone Is A Suspect

Julia paused at the entrance of the surveillance room, peeking inside with a curious gaze. She wanted to see if Ernst would find any signs of tampering with the surveillance footage.

Ernst, however, found no evidence of any tampering.

With a subtle smile, Julia quietly left the area.

She thought of Brenna’s words earlier. This issue must be kept confidential, never exposed. She was to behave as if everything were normal, as any deviation might lead to suspicion.

Moving away from the surveillance room, she bumped into Rachael, who approached her with an intense expression and immediately asked, “Where have you been?”

Julia let out a dismissive snort, brushing off Rachael’s demand. “That’s none of your concern,” she said coldly

Rachael’s suspicion toward Julia intensified, and she said, “You were near the security and surveillance area. What were you doing there? Were you the one who ruined Miss Harper’s clothes?”

Julia’s anxiety spiked, regretting not taking Brenna’s advice seriously and her decision to check the surveillance footage, which now made Rachael suspicious of her.

Her thoughts flickered to the storage room near the surveillance room, which housed the Harper family’s seldom–used belongings and daily essentials like hygiene products.

Luckily, her quick thinking had led her to take a pack of sanitary pads from the storage room earlier.

Holding them up to Rachael, she said, “I just went to get these. Why are you making such accusations? Just because there’s an incident, you are paranoid. You can’t accuse me of something without proof.”

Rachael saw the sanitary pads but made no apology for her unfounded suspicion. Instead, she scolded Julia, “Why are you raising your voice at me? The incident happened, and now, everyone is a suspect. Your behavior is suspicious, so what’s wrong with me asking?”

Julia responded sharply, “Why would anyone here be a suspect? The Harper family compensates the servants well, and we enjoy our work. No one would risk losing their job over this. Plus, Miss Rosie Harper’s clothes are valued in the millions. None of us could cover that cost even if we saved for a lifetime. If a servant were responsible, they’d face jail. I doubt any servant is involved. Rachael, even if you want to impress Rosie, you should think more logically.”

She then rolled her eyes and walked off, muttering under her breath, “What an idiot.”

Rachael was seething with anger, but she couldn’t deny that Julia had a valid point.

She muttered to herself, “Could it be Brenna who did this? But Brenna wasn’t at home this afternoon.”

In the surveillance room, Ernst was speaking to Rosie Holding his phone, he asked, “Should we involve the police?

Rosie’s day had been difficult. Her two friends had suffered beause of a reckless suggestion she made they had complained to her for hours. After persistent persuasion, she calmed them by promising addition business orders for their families, Higgins and Morrison Sylvie and Vivian eventually forgave her, further calmed by the shopping cards she provided, each loaded with a significant amount of money

Rosie said, “Torget it; I’ll just consider myself unlucky this time. If this becomes public, it’s the Harper family that will be humiliated. It’s only a few dresses, after all. Let’s not bother the police ”

The following morning, Harlan awoke in his hospital bed, and his first act was to check the stock prices for the Moreno family on his phone. Seeing the numbers plummet filled him with anxiety

Within the first hour of the market opening, his family’s market value had diminished by billions, hitting the lowest trading limit!

He was in disbelief, staring at his phone in shock, his anxiety mounting He said in distress, “No, no, the Moreno family is ruined! What do we do now?”

Thiago’s warning echoed in his mind, indicating this was only the start.

His thoughts were chaotic, and he was struggling to predict Thiago’s next moves.
