Chapter 202

Haillie Knotts was obviously hinting that Theo Blanchet should step in and say something

All eyes, including Jonah Wyton’s, were on Theo, waiting to see how he would handle this tricky

situation between his wife and his friend

Theo kept a poker face, then, in a deep voice, he said, “I get it You wouldn’t frame someone for no

reason

His words clearly showed that he sided with Halle

Hearing Theo’s words, Elinor felt a pang of disappointment and quietly lowered her head.

It didn’t surprise her that no one was on her side. It was normal not to be believed by everyone.

However, throughout their time working together, she and Theo had been through a lot, even at this

moment, the man she once risked her life to save took a stand against her without hesitation. This

made her feel extremely disappointed.

Trust is the hardest thing to build in this world.

Everyone in the room had their own thoughts, looking at Elinor with regret

Haillie was very pleased with herself, a gleam in her eye, but she still acted the victim: “Theo, I’m glad

you believe me. Otherwise, I would have been wronged today without any chance to explain‘

Belinda Wesley couldn’t stand it anymore, she stood up and said, “Theo, you don’t believe Elinor, but I

do.”

Then she firmly looked at Haillie and said, “Haillie, you need proof to accuse others! I was there when

you let Elinor try on your boots, but I didn’t see her put any earrings your boots All I saw was that Elinor

found the boots uncomfortable, and she took them off immediately and gave them back to you?

Belinda standing up for Elinor was not a surprise to Haillie. She sighed with a bit of resignation, then

said

“Belinda, you’re too naive. A person with malicious intent would naturally avoid others‘ eyes. And you

saw it too, only Elinor touched my boots. She was fine when she tried them on, but as soon as I wore

them, my foot was pricked. No one else touched my boots in between, isn’t the answer obvious?”

Belinda retorted, “That doesn’t prove that the earring in your boot was put there by Elinor. She didn’t

even wear earrings today! If you put it that way, I’d say it’s possible you put the earring there on

purpose!”

Haillie paused for a moment, then said innocently, “Belinda, how could you say that about me? Why

would I want to hurt myself by putting things in my own boots?”

Belinda retorted, “Who knows what you’re up to? Last time when your watch went missing, you and

Bryan Howard accused Elinor without any proof.”

Bryan frowned at the side, wanting to argue, but hesitated for a while and said nothing.

Haillie didn’t know how to respond to Belinda, but considering Belinda was Theo’s mece, she couldn’t

offend Belinda. So she didn’t argue with Belinda anymore, she turned to Theo, sighed with a wronged

face, and said.

“Theo, forget it, I don’t want to argue endlessly with Elinor. I just want to be treated fairly. If you let

Elinor apologize to me, let’s put this behind us. I don’t want this to affect our friendship.”

Belinda angrily put her hands on her hips and argued, “Why should she apologize to you? She didn’t…”

Before she could finish, a heavy hand rested on her shoulder, and Theo moved her aside, stopping her

from interrupting.

Theo took a step forward, looking coldly at Haillie. “You want fairness? Then who will ensure the

innocence of my wife?”

Haillie was taken aback. “Theo, what are you talking about? Are you doubting me?”

“I’m not doubting” Theo said without expression, with a firm tone, “I’m sure my wife would never do

such a thing”
