    Chapter 140 You Don’t Have Evidence


    A sh of malice flickered in Erin’s eyes.


    Tracy quickly avoided Erin’s attempt to link arms with her. “No thanks. I’ll get it myself.”

    “There are many rooms in this hotel. You don’t even know what Grandpa’s gift looks like. I shoulde with you,” Erin said, putting on a pitiful expression. “Or maybe you just don’t want me tagging along?”


    Norris couldn’t stand seeing his beloved woman treated like that and jumped in. “Erin, forget it if she doesn’t appreciate your kindness. Andrew knows what the gift is. He can go get it.”


    Andrew looked upset-not because of Norris, but because he was mad at Tracy for acting unreasonably.


    He’d assumed Tracy still hadn’t learned to behave herself after Erin had been back for years.


    With so many guests around, Andrew didn’t cause a scene. Instead, he nned to send Tracy away first and talk to her seriouslyter.


    When Andrew went off to get the gift, Tracy said nothing against it.


    She’d been cautious about Erin’s eager invite all along. Waiting in public was safer than going with Erin to get the gift.


    But despite all her precautions, Tracy didn’t realize she’d missed something.


    Soon after, Andrew came back furiously, heading straight for her.


    Tracy sensed danger and tried to step back, but Andrew was faster.


    The loud p echoed through the hotel, freezing everyone for a moment.


    Liam was the first to react, rushing forward to pull Andrew back. “Andrew, what are you doing?!”


    Andrew adjusted his sses, ring at Tracy with anger and disappointment. “You should ask her what she did!”


    Tracy turned her head, showing almost no emotion despite the p.


    She’d dodged slightly, so the p didn’t hit her full on, but her cheek was red and swollen.


    Looking at him calmly, she said, “Everyone saw me standing right here. What exactly did I do?”


    Andrew’s anger grew. “Still denying it? We threw a birthday party for you. Erin even offered to give you her gifts, but you just weren’t satisfied! You went and destroyed all of Erin’s gifts. You’ve gone too far!”


    Everyone gasped.


    “What?!” Daphne eximed, “Are you serious?”


    “I saw it myself. How could it be false?” Andrew snapped at Tracy. “Apart from the ne Erin is wearing, every gift she got this year was ruined.”

    Everyone stared at Tracy with shock and disgust.

    “See? No matter how many years the Jackmans raised her, she can’t change her bad nature.”


    “Good thing she’s not their real daughter. Who knows how much more shame she’d have brought to the family?”


    “I always knew she was arrogant and mean. Looks like I was right.”


    The criticisms were loud and open, like they wanted to make sure Tracy heard every word.


    Erin smirked for a moment but quickly covered it up.


    She gently pulled Andrew aside. “Andrew, maybe this is just a misunderstanding. Tracy refused toe with me to get the gifts. She might not even know where the room is.”


    He disagreed. “Erin, you always think too well of people.


    “She’s been with us for 18 years. We’ve thrown her birthday parties every single year. She knows exactly where the guest gift room is.


    “She refused to get the gift, not because she couldn’t find it-she was just scared we’d discover what she did!”


    Erin looked shocked and hurt. “How could this be?


    “Tracy, I already said you could have the birthday gifts. Even if you wanted every single one, I’d have given them to you. But how could you go and destroy them? Those were everyone’s blessings to me.”


    As they both med her, Tracy stayed calm.


    She’d been through such situations so many times that she’d gotten numb to it.


    Looking Andrew straight in the eye, she said, “Mr. Andrew, you sound so confident. Did you see me do it? Do you have any real proof?”


    Andrew was certain. “Who else could it be? You’re alwayspeting with Erin. Out of everyone here, only you would do something like this!”


    Tracyughed softly and pointed at a camera in the corner. “I’ve been in front of that camera since I walked into the hotel. If you don’t believe me, check it anytime.


    “But you haven’t done that. You didn’t see me do anything, and you have zero evidence, yet you just assume it was me.


    “Is this how you run yourpany? Just making wild guesses?”


    Even though she smiled, Tracy felt sad inside.


    She knew no matter what she said, Andrew wouldn’t take her seriously or bother checking the footage.
