Chapter 1110:


    Katelyn remained silent. At that moment, her phone buzzed loudly, cutting through the tension. She nced at the screen and saw a message from Alfy: a clip of surveince video.


    Alfy ryed in a message, “The video is terribly unclear, showing nothing more than a faint shape. It seems the person was deliberately disguised. All that is clear is that the figure is a woman.” Katelyn examined the video closely. The individual’s movements suggested a female, despite the thorough disguise. So, was the surveince video not helpful after all?


    Katelyn noticed the camera was focused near the organizer’s location, right when Aimee had turned in the jewelry. The problem had urred at the main storage area. At that critical moment, the room was devoid of any other people, including security staff. This indicated that the security diversion was intentional. The ability to orchestrate such a diversion of official security wasn’t within everyone’s reach.


    Katelyn leaned in towards Aimee and whispered, “Can you discreetly check who has the power to direct the official security?”


    Aimee caught on immediately and replied, “Understood, I’ll look into it.” They were resolved not to let the perpetrator manipte the situation without consequences.


    After Aimee left, Ashlyn, looking somewhat bewildered, asked Katelyn, “What’s going on?”


    Katelyn put her phone away and replied with a calm smile, “Nothing serious, just a small item that’s gone missing. I’ve asked Aimee to locate it.”


    Ashlyn acknowledged with a nod, sensing not to probe any further, yet a sense of unease weighed heavily on her, stifling her breath.


    Vincent sat next to Katelyn, whispering, “Samuel filled me in. If you need assistance, I’m here to help.” His expression was grave, and his presencemanded a formidable air.


    Yet, Katelyn felt a reassuring warmth rather than fear, smiling as she assured Vincent, “Thank you, but I can manage on my own for now.”


    Step into a new world at gα?ησν???s?c?m


    Vincent, noting Katelyn’s confidence, chose not to push the issue further.


    At that moment, music filled the venue, capturing the attention of all present as it indicated the start of the event.


    Thepetition had gathered over a dozen top international designers as judges. Among them was a distinguished gemstone carving expert from their own country. The event buzzed with exceptional energy and visual appeal.


    The host, d in a long, diamond-encrusted gray-white strapless gown, gracefully took her ce on stage. The gown sparkled under the spotlight, mesmerizing the audience. Her apanying jewelry, simple white diamonds withrge, wless cuts, radiated a stark purity, heightening the elegance of the asion.


    Katelyn, observing from her seat, murmured appreciatively, “That’s a beautifully designed dress.”


    The exquisitebination of the gown and jewelry clearly spoke of immense value.


    Vincent, however, merely gave a brief, indifferent look withoutmenting on Katelyn’s observation. To him, such details were trivial.
