I Quit, Mr. Shaffer

Chapter 487 The Stolen Pot

The ceremony had concluded, but the banquet in the main hall was still ongoing, and it

was now time for toasting.

Isabella sat by the flower bed, holding a pot in her hands. After much consideration,

she decided to place the pot, filled with various items, behind the statue near the

fountain. Firstly, it would be out of sight, and secondly, since the banquet was attended

by the wealthy and noble, no one would pay attention to these items.

Just as she finished placing the items, Mandy came looking for her. There were several

actresses in the front hall, and some even approached Isabella for a photo.

Isabella was also enjoying her popularity. Most of the actresses who approached

allowed her to stand in the middle. When she encountered more popular ones, she

wisely moved to the side.

After a round of toasting and drinking, Mandy led her to a quieter area,

“Why didn’t you stand in the middle when we took a photo with Zephyr Goldman?”

Mandy was disappointed. She had hoped to stand closer to her idol.

Isabella understood what she was thinking and took a sip of champagne. “Didn’t you

see the looks on the faces of Genevieve and the other ladies? They were practically

glaring at us. Why bother?”

Mandy pouted, still feeling a bit regretful. “It’s getting late. Let’s go outside for some

fresh air and then head back.”

Isabella wasn’t here to have fun tonight. She had come to help Briana fulfill her dream.

Once the mission was complete, it would be better to leave early.

Mandy, who was more playful, followed her outside for some fresh air, intending

return and wait for Jerry.

“You were so lucky during the ceremony. I could feel the weight in your pot.” As they

walked along the garden path, Mandy marveled.

Isabella, slightly tipsy, put her hands behind her back. “I didn’t expect it either. I was

shocked when I saw what was inside.”

“By the way, there are several new necklaces in the pot. You can choose one if you like.”

“That’s great.” Mandy clapped her hands happily and eagerly pulled Isabella toward the

lawn.

When they arrived at the fountain, Isabella turned around and said, “I left it behind the

statue. Holding the pot was too silly.”

“You just left the pot here?” Mandy looked around anxiously. “Check if it’s still th

Isabella laughed. “Only we think it’s valuable. doubt many people here today actually

care about it.”

As she spoke, she walked around to the back of the statue. When she turned her head,

she almost couldn’t believe her eyes. The dais behind the statue was empty. There was

nothing there.

“What happened?” Mandy leaned over to take a look, then exclaimed, “It’s really gone?”

Isabella was also surprised. “That’s impossible. I left it here.”

She patted her forehead, preferring to think that she had had too much to drink rather

than believe that someone would steal things at such an event. “Maybe one of the staff

members picked it up?” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Mandy shrugged, spotted a waiter, and called him over.

The waiter immediately denied it upon hearing their inquiry. “If you’re certain you le

here, why not check the surveillance footage?”

Isabella hesitated for a moment. Although it was unfortunate that the items were

missing, the person who took them must have been invited and likely had connections.

Making a big fuss about it might offend someone.

Mandy also considered this and sighed. “Should we just forget about it?”

Isabella shrugged. “What else can we do?”

They reluctantly accepted the situation, as Isabella had already offended the Larson

Family and didn’t want to upset any other influential figures.

Both of them wore dejected expressions as they walked back to the banquet hall.

Just as they entered the corridor, they ran into Jerry.

“Why the long faces?”

Mandy pouted. “Bella’s pot of lucky items was stolen.”
