Comeback Of The Adored Heiress
Chapter 74

Madisyn had offered to buy her a dress, but Susan had declined, not anticipating such a lavish gathering.

“Here, everyone is treated the same,” Madisyn assured her, gently patting her head.

“Is there anything else you’d like to eat?”

“Yes! Would you like some food as well?”

“Actually, I could use a snack after all that socializing,” Madisyn admitted, enjoying the relaxed moment with her friend.

As they went to serve themselves some food, someone accidentally bumped into Susan.

“I’m sorry,” the individual who bumped into Susan quickly apologized before moving on.

Madisyn scowled, ready to confront the person, but Susan pulled at her sleeve.

“It’s okay.

It was an accident,” Susan reassured her.

Madisyn then decided not to pursue it further.

As they sat down to eat, Madisyn noticed something protruding from Susan’s pocket and squinted.

“What’s in your pocket?”

“Nothing,” Susan answered, blinking innocently.

When Madisyn retrieved a ring from her pocket, Susan was visibly shocked.

“This isn’t mine,” Susan exclaimed, panicked.

Madisyn quickly pocketed the ring, scanning the hall as she devised a quick plan.

“Of course it’s not.

Just wait here,” she directed.

Madisyn stepped away briefly and then came back.

“What did you do? Where’s the ring?” Susan inquired, curious.

“You’ll see,” Madisyn responded, just as a scream pierced the hall.

“My ring is gone!”

It was Josie.

Josie appeared distraught, her voice cracking with emotion.

“No! That ring is a family heirloom from my grandmother!”

“Oh no, I know that ring.

It’s extremely valuable.

How could it just vanish?”

“I have taken it off to wash my hands in the restroom and forgot to put it back on.

When I returned to retrieve it, it was missing,”

Josie explained, her eyes welling up.

The other guests started helping her search, but the ring remained missing.

Suddenly, Josie’s gaze fell on Susan.
