Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband
Chapter 1196 - Chapter 1196 Chapter 1196 I do not accept reconciliation

Chapter 1196: Chapter 1196: I do not accept reconciliation Chapter 1196: Chapter 1196: I do not accept reconciliation “This is a handmade artwork designed by Tylor, and my mother used to love collecting this artist’s works. This shell wind chime is a part of her collection, and Tylor’s name and seal are engraved on it. If you don’t believe me, you can have someone investigate, and you’ll know whether I’m lying or not.”

The female officer took the shell wind chime, and indeed saw the engraved name and red seal in the top shell. Upon carefully examining it, she saw that the craftsmanship was, in fact, exquisite and different from ordinary wind chimes.

Among Tylor’s works, this shell wind chime is relatively inexpensive, but each one is unique. Each wind chime has a different shell, so once the shell is broken, it loses its collectible value.

Due to the large amount of money involved in the case, the police department specifically asked for professionals to appraise the authenticity of the artwork. A moment later, the other party concluded: “This is indeed a work designed by Tylor, and its current market price is at least 200,000 dollars.”

“Miss Hughes, you are suspected of damaging Miss Evans’s collection, causing her a loss of 200,000 dollars. Now that the evidence is clear, please come with us.”

Zora Hughes widened her eyes, full of disbelief, “Is it really worth 200,000 dollars?”

Nidya Hughes also had a shocked face, but then immediately pointed at Xaviera and scolded, “Xaviera, why are you so petty? It’s just 200,000 dollars, is it really necessary?”

“This is a relic left by my mother, and Zora deliberately destroyed it. What I care about has never been the money, but to give her some punishment.”

Nidya Hughes blurted out, “She’s already dead. What’s so precious about the things she left behind? Don’t forget that I am your real mother…”

“Mrs. Hughes.” The female police officer frowned unhappily: “This is a police station, please don’t yell. Besides, I must remind you, the victim now is your daughter. You’re not helping her, but instead think that she’s being petty. How many mothers in this world are like you?”

After the female officer finished speaking, she looked at Zora coldly, “Miss Hughes, the 200,000 dollars has reached the amount for filing a case, and your actions constitute a crime…”

“No! I didn’t do it!” Zora suddenly panicked, shouting loudly, “I can pay the money! I want to settle, I don’t want to be detained!”

At this moment, Zora was sweating profusely, no longer calm, and cried out in panic, “Xaviera, I’m your sister! You can’t accuse me, how can you be so heartless? Can we settle? I can pay you 200,000 dollars!”

“No need.” Xaviera coldly refused: “Miss Hughes, as I said, I don’t care about the money, but to seek justice and let the person who destroyed my mother’s relic be punished, so I don’t accept reconciliation.”

She looked up at Bill Bankston, “Lawyer Bankston, please take care of the rest.”

“Miss Evans, you’re too kind. I will definitely handle everything and get justice for you!” Bill Bankston assured, then turned to Zora, “Miss Hughes, I’m sorry, but my client doesn’t accept reconciliation. You’d better find a lawyer soon, as we’ll be meeting in court before long.”

Zora felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her head seemed about to explode, her breathing stopped, and she stood in place, stunned for a few seconds before fainting to the ground.

One week later.

Xaviera sat contentedly in the coffee shop, sipping hot flower tea, and waiting for Caleb Mamet to finish work. Meanwhile, Xenia Jaak was chatting with a few friends nearby.

“You guys don’t know yet, but there’s been a big incident in Libanan’s circle of noble ladies!” Xenia spoke mysteriously and with an exaggerated expression, instantly attracting everyone’s curiosity.

“What happened? Tell us!”

Xenia cleared her throat, “Have you guys not seen Zora Hughes for a long time?”

“Yeah! It’s strange that someone who loves socializing like her didn’t even attend Miss Salt’s birthday party. Moreover, Madam Hughes herself rejected the invitation on her behalf, making Miss Salt’s face turn green with anger!”

“The Hughes family just moved to Libanan recently, and they’re already acting so aloof, not only rejecting Miss Salt but also others. Zora really has changed!”

Just as everyone was discussing, the ‘Miss Salt’ they were talking about happened to come to the coffee shop with her mother, Mrs. Salt. The mother-daughter duo went shopping and entered the coffee shop nearby to rest.

Mrs. Salt saw Xenia and whispered to her daughter, “Let’s sit near them and listen to what they’re saying.”
