The Heiress’s Second Chance at Vengeance-


    Chapter 464 The Confrontation


    The ring heist had Eliza written all over it–Nn wasn’t the type to bother with schemes if <b>he </b><b>could </b><b>just </b>take something by force.


    Henry rubbed his temples, feeling utterly exhausted.


    The entire purpose of tonight’s banquet had been to let the jewelry experts examine the ring and uncover


    its secrets.


    But ine had ruined everything.


    “Tell everyone the banquet is ending carly,” Henry instructed.


    He had no patience left to entertain anyone. As he turned to leave, ine stepped in front of him. “Was <b>it </b>Eliza? Did she have someone steal the ring?”


    Her voice was full of frustration.


    She couldn’t believe Eliza had been so sly–pretending to give up on the ring, <i>only </i>to use such lowly tricks to snatch it away behind his back.


    “This has nothing to do with you. Someone escort Ms. Lynn out.”


    Henry didn’t want to waste another word on her.


    But ine was already convinced Eliza had set her up–that she’d been humiliated in front of everyone because of her. Shaking off the nearby bodyguards, she stormed out of the banquet hall.


    Once outside, she immediately ordered her men to find out where Eliza and Nn had gone.


    Meanwhile-


    Eliza and Nn had already brought the ring back to Nn’s house.


    Eliza had never studied the ring too closely before, but now that they were home, the two of them shined a shlight on it, examining every mark and groove.


    They couldn’t afford to miss even the smallest detail.


    “Do you know anything about jewelry?” she asked.


    Nn shook his head.


    Clearly, he wasn’t familiar with it–and neither was Eliza. “Henry’s had the ring for two days now. In that time, even he didn’t manage to find out what’s wrong with it. I doubt we’ll figure it out in one night. Honestly, I think tonight’s banquet was all about getting those jewelry experts close enough to examine it for him. Too bad we took it before they could.”


    Nn went quiet for a moment.


    Eliza could tell he was thinking about something. “You have an idea?”


    “The Leaf family only ever bought your mother’s ring. Maybe they knew there was something special about <ol><li>it. I’ll ask.” </li></ol>

    Chapter 464 The Confrontation


    “We should go in person. A phone call won’t cut it


    “All right.”


    Nn agreed.


    At that very moment, ine’s car pulled up outside Nn’s home.


    She stepped out, saw the lights on inside the house, and knew Eliza and Nn were in there. Marching <b>up </b>to the door, she banged on it.


    “Eliza! I know you’re in there! Open the door! Give it back!”


    She and Henry had signed a contract for this event. Now that the ring was gone, she was on the hook <b>for </b><b>it</b><b>. </b>


    And it was worth a fortune–she couldn’t possibly pay for it herself.


    From the living room’s floor–to–ceiling window, Eliza looked down and saw ine standing below<b>, </b>face like thunder.


    She hadn’te alone this time–she’d brought four bodyguards.


    If they didn’t open the door, ine clearly nned to have her men force their way in.


    And these weren’t Lynn family bodyguards–they were Tyson’s men.


    Apparently, the youngdy from the Lynn family had found a shred of cunning when pushed to the <i>edge</i>.


    “She’s here for the ring. You want to handle it, or should I?” Eliza turned to Nn.


    Nn smiled. “I’ll have someone kick her out.”


    As long as Nn was in this house, no one was getting in.


    Down below, ine could clearly see Nn and Eliza standing side by side at the window, exchanging a smile. The sight of it made her blood boil.


    That should’ve been her–standing next to Nn.


    Instead, Eliza had barged in and stolen everything.


    Nn made a quick call, and his men arrived at the gate almost immediately.


    Tyson’s guards knew full well they weren’t a match for Nn’s people. One of them stepped forward and said, “Ms. Lynn, we should back off. If Mr. Hayes calls us in, maybe we’ll get to see Ms. Eliza.”


    But ine wasn’t having it. Furious, she pped the guard across the face.


    “What did Tyson tell you when he sent you to me? Did you forget? I want to see Eliza and Nn right now! They stole my ring–don’t you get that?”


    She had thought that ring would be her trump card.


    Who could’ve guessed Eliza would y so dirty–drenching her in red wine and stealing the ring while <b>she </b>was distracted.
