Chapter 63 Search Them One By One Ruth's expression soured after Kate's remarks. She certainly wouldn't slap herself ten times as Kate demanded, but seeing George holding a stack of receipts, Ruth felt uneasy.

Could George really find something incriminating in those receipts? Ruth currently had a few small yet expensive items on her, and together with what Holly had, it could amount thousands, maybe even 100 thousand! George worked swiftly through the receipts, having been the one to create the mess himself. Hist memory was excellent, and he handed Kate a list of missing items respectfully. "Madam, these receipts detail the missing items. Please take a look." Kate scanned through them, her expression darkening. "What? So many items are missing?"

Holly and Ruth exchanged worried glances, suddenly flustered. They didn't expect George to identify so many items! Does George really keep every receipt? How else could there be so many?

What's Kate up to? She used to turn a blind eye to these things before and ignore everything Eric gave her. Why the sudden change? The servants of Summer Estate were quickly assembled. Kate's cold gaze swept over them, her voice slightly hoarse. "Anyone who took something from the storage room, confess now, and your punishment may be lighter. If you don't turn yourself in and get caught during the search...

"Madam, you can search as thoroughly as you like-whether our persons or our quarters. I haven't taken anything of yours!" Amidst the clamour of voices, Kate let out a cold snort. "Who's to say you're telling the truth? George, have them search each room methodically."

They wouldn't find anything there, for sure! Ruth glanced subtly at Holly. Noticing her lack of reaction, she breathed a small sigh of relief.

Kate's expression darkened. She took the bag and inspected its contents, her gaze sweeping Weeping the m assembled servants with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Her voice turned colder. "Who took this? Step forward." The servants glanced at each other but remained silent.

Holly's heart skipped a beat m inexplicably. She had a sinking feeling. Kate is probably just trying to intimidate me. I can't panic now! Thus, Holly stood firm in the crowd, unmoving as she struggled to maintain her composure.

"No one wants to confess? Don't say I didn't give you a chance," George interjected icily, standing beside Kate and fixing a sharp stare directly on Holly. "These stolen items were found in Holly's room!" Send Gifts 20
