To My Dear Lalisa Manoban [JENLISA] (1)

381-385

However, she would still like to preserve her reputation. There was no way that she would start a fight with Jun Ji-Hyun here.

She could only take the time to think of a way to teach this woman a lesson after what happened today.

While she was still thinking of a way to do that, Madam Luo, who had been standing at a corner to watch the unfolding drama, suddenly let out a shout.

"What's wrong? Auntie?"

"T-The necklace I had been wearing around my neck is gone!"

When Madam Luo called out, Jun Ji-Hyun had already reached the entrance. Her shout was a little louder than expected - Jun Ji-Hyun might've heard it but she never thought of stopping.

"Wasn't your necklace here earlier?" Madam Song quickly asked. "I saw it just now."

"Yes. Where did my necklace disappear?" Madam Luo's face was filled with panic. She lowered her head to search for the necklace but did not find it.

"Keep looking for it. Didn't Mr.Luo give you this necklace? It's worth millions, right?"

"Yes." Madam Luo was in a total state of panic. She patted her body a few times. The pockets in her clothes had been turned inside out, but the necklace was nowhere to be found.

She blabbered on in panic: "Did you see me wearing it just now? Was I still wearing it when I entered the shop? I didn't notice. Could it have fallen off in the car?"

Hye-Jun watched the alarmed look on Madam Luo's face, and from the corner of her eye, she spotted Jun Ji-Hyun, who had already walked out of Bo Gu Zhai. Suddenly, in an incredibly quiet tone, she suggested something in a would-be artless manner.

"Auntie. You were standing next to that woman earlier - could it possibly have accidentally fallen into her hands?"

Hye-Jun had suggested that it was accidental, but the meaning behind her words implied that Jun Ji-Hyun was the one who took the necklace.

The shopkeeper of Bo Gu Zhai observed this sudden scene in silence. As a mere owner of a jade accessory store, he couldn't possibly have the power to interfere in the dealings of these people.

Madam Song reacted with an 'ah!' as if she had received a reminder. "That's right. You were standing so close to her just now, who knows - it might've accidentally dropped into her bag, right?"

Jun Ji-Hyun was carrying an extremely big bag. It was an eye-catching, sheepskin bag of an unknown brand.

Hye-Jun was done with dropping hints. There was no need for her to say anything else.

She simply watched as Madam Luo and Madam Song walked out together to block Jun Ji-Hyun off.

Jun Ji-Hyun's mood was initially affected by the appearance of Hye-Jun and her entourage. However, now that the jade pendant she intended to get for her daughter was in her hands, she was feeling pretty good.

There was a subway station nearby, but she thought of getting a cab. It wasn't that far anyway.

However, before she could get to a cab stand, her path was blocked.

"Let me see your bag."

Madam Luo couldn't be bothered with her manners when she said this.

Jun Ji-Hyun's brows locked tightly. She clutched the two bags in her hands and took a step back.

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? The necklace Madam Luo was wearing was her most favorite one. Her husband had given it to her for her birthday."
