Chapter 26 Wronged Her?

He had seen it with his own eyes this time!

He stepped forward and helped Niki up. After carefully checking whether Niki was injured or not, heasked gently, “Niki, are you okay?”

Niki felt flustered. Why did Julian come back?!

Niki stood up awkwardly and tried to keep calm. She shook her head and said, “it’s okay.”

Hearing the man’s voice, Natalie was surprised. Why did Terence suddenly come? Why did themeeting end.

so early?

Natalie looked down at the two people in front of him.

What a right time did Nick fell at! Did she fall on purpose or not? Natalie sneered in her heart.

Julian looked up at Natalie and said coldly, “you don’t have to make things difficult for Niki all the time.”

Hearing this, Natalie raised her eyebrows.

Niki managed to calm herself down. She was thinking quickly and she grabbed the corner of Julian’sclothes..

She said in a sweet voice, “Julian, don’t be so mean to Niki. She will be sad.”

Although Julian still looked cold on his face, his tone softened after he heard what Niki said.

“I know you don’t want a divorce, but you can’t vent your anger on Niki. What you do will only make medislike

you more, understand?”

“I don’t want a divorce?” Natalie sneered.

Julian said again, with a hint of sneer and disdain in his eyes, “you’re here today, which explainseverything,

right?”

Natalie laughed in her heart. She was too lazy to explain for herself.

Tim stood aside awkwardly. He rubbed his hands and said in a measured tone.

“Well, we…”

Hearing his voice, Julian turned his head and saw Niki lying on the ground. He rushed over and didn’tnotice

the police standing next to him at all.

He frowned and asked, “what’s wrong, Niki?”

Niki said softly, “The police are here to investigate the case of Natalie’s theft.”

She didn’t expect that Julian would suddenly appear.

Then she would take this opportunity to make Julian look down on Natalie totally!

Jullen frowned more, “did you steal something?” he looked at Natalie sharply.

Natalle ignored his sharp eyes.

Since Niki wanted to make a scene in front of Julian, she would give it a chance.

“Officer Smith, since you asked me to cooperate with your investigation, let’s get started.”

Natalie greeted to officer Tim Smith. He had just calmed Linda down, and he wanted to solved theproblem

first.

Hearing this, Officer Smith stood out, trembling.

“Then shall we start?”

He looked at Julian, as if asking for his opinion.

Julian’s face was overcast with coldness, which gave them a sense of oppression.-

He stared at Natalie and ignored Officer Smith.

This woman ignored him again!

Seeing that Julian neither nodded nor shook his head, Officer Smith didn’t know what to do.

Noticing that the atmosphere between the two was weird, Niki gently pulled Julian’s arm. She couldn’tunderstand what he was thinking now.

Julian looked back and nodded, “fine, ask the police to investigate in the room.”

When they entered the room, Lily had just helped Linda to sleep. Hearing the noise, she hurried downto get

some water for the guests.

Julian sat on the sofa, leaning against the back of the sofa, with his long legs crossed, with a sense of

oppression.

Said Officer Smith.

“Well… Just now, Madam said that she didn’t know the diamond ring. Do you think there is anyone elsein the Graham family who has such a diamond ring?” Officer Smith asked.

Julian’s face darkened. How could his mother get involved in this?

“Madam may be shielding sister Natalie.” there was an indescribable emotion in Niki’s eyes.

Well, whatever Natalie said, Niki didn’t believe her anyway.

Then what do you want?” Natalie looked at Niki expressionlessly.

“I don’t want to do anything. I just want the person who did something wrong to be punished by the law,not

against you. Don’t misunderstand me, sister Natalie.”

Niki said in a gentle voice, as if she was so justified.

“Ms. Spears, since you said that this diamond ring was auctioned by your friend, do you have anyevidence?”

Officer Smith said.

Julian narrowed his eyes, with indescribable emotions.

Evidence? Philip should have a transaction record, right? Natalie decided to call Philip.

“I think so, Officer Smith, please wait a moment. I’ll ask my friend for it.”

Hearing this, Niki’s eyes were full of sarcasm.

Was Natalie pretending? Would she fake a record to fool them? Niki would like to see what kind ofrecord

Natalie could show.

Natalie dialed the number of Philip.

“Sorry, the number you dialed is not at the service. Please redial later.”

Natalie was stunned for a moment.

N

She dialed the number again. Not long after, the same notice came, “Sorry, the number you dialed isnot in

the service. Please redial later.”

Was Philip having a vacation in the mountain area? Why couldn’t she get through to him?

Natalie put down her cell phone, and shrugged, “I’m sorry. I can’t get in touch with my friend for thetime

being.”

A smile appeared on Niki’s face.

“Admit ot, sister Natalie. It’s good for you. I know you want to maintain your self-esteem, but youshouldn’t lie

now. We won’t think less of you just because you made a mistake.”

“After all, the ring is so expensive. It’s good for you to turn yourself in. I did it all for your own good,Natalie.”

Natalie looked up and sneered.

“What do you think, Officer Smith?” Niki asked, looking at Tim.

“Miss, you haven’t provided any evidence to prove that this diamond ring belongs to the Graham family.It’s

really hard for us to make a judgment.” said Gary, rubbing his hands with hesitation.

Julian put down his legs and asked in a low voice, “what diamond ring? Do you have to make trouble inthe Graham’s?” There was obvious impatience in his tone.

Her mother should be resting at this time. If these things came to the Graham’s in a noisy way, theywould only disturb her and make her worse.

Moreover, he had never allowed Niki to appear in the Graham mansion. Although he loved Niki andpromised

to give her a future and identity, it didn’t mean that she could do something against his will.

Now it was not the right time for Niki to show up…

He subconsciously helped Niki up just now and didn’t think too much. Now he realized that she’s in the

Graham mansion!

If her mother saw Niki suddenly appear in her place, she must be effected.

Julian felt uncomfortable to be out of control.

Obviously, Niki didn’t feel what Julian felt in his heart. She pointed at the shining diamond ring inNatalie’s

hand.

Julian raised his eyes to look at the diamond ring with a uncertain expression on his face. Then heturned to look at Natalie, who was quiet but very calm.

He had never seen this diamond ring in the Graham’s. Judging from its quality, it was impossible to buysuch a pink diamond in this country. Her mother had always been plain and simple, and it wasimpossible for her mother to travel thousands of miles to buy this diamond ring.

Niki observed Julian’s expression secretly. When Julian saw the diamond ring, there was no specialexpression on his face, no anger, no surprise.

Did he buy it for Natalie? Niki was a little nervous.

“Julian, did you buy this diamond ring for sister Natalie?”

“I didn’t buy it.” said Julian impatiently.

“It’s not the diamond ring of the Graham’s, and it can’t be bought by my mother… did you called thepolice?”

Julian frowned.

Niki was shocked. It was not from the Graham’s?!

Her mind went blank for a moment. She made it a big scene on purpose, and even took the risk ofangering Julian to make it happen in the Graham mansion to show it to Linda. Linda had just beenhelped into her

room…

Panic, lost, fear and surprise overwhelmed Niki.
