Halle came to the bedside table as if she knew the way.

She picked up the potted plant.

"Hey!

"Where's the key?"

Sure enough, it was her!

Although I thought I had wrongly accused her, I still changed the place of the key out of caution.

Halle couldn't find the key under the potted plant, and she looked a bit unhappy.

She put down the potted plant heavily.

She started looking for the key elsewhere.

But she searched for a long time and still couldn't find the key.

She was extremely impatient.

She grabbed the drawer, shaking it up and down and trying to forcefully pull it out.

I bought the dressing table online.

Although the quality and workmanship were not the best, it was not something that a woman like her could open without a key.

But maybe because the table was shaking too much.

Something fell out from under the table.

Halle curiously picked it up, and after she saw what it was, she grinned.

It was the key I hid.

I glued it to the bottom of the table with invisible glue.

But it fell off because of the violent shaking.

I watched her open the drawer of my dressing table with the key.

She put all my carefully organized jewelry on the table.

She immediately took a liking to my favorite pair of diamond earrings.

As she put them on, she muttered to herself.

"Damn Rosa! She's so rich, but she only gave me an entry-level bag!

"Then don't blame me for doing this!"

She snorted again.

Facing the jewelry box, she picked and chose for a long time and finally settled on a bracelet.

It was in excellent condition, and I bought it at a high price.

"This one will do!"

Halle looked at the translucent bracelet on her fair wrist.

Then she carefully put the jewelry box back in its original place.

She stuck the key back to the bottom of the drawer.

Finally, she left satisfied.

I suddenly sat up from the bed.

Frank wasn't sleeping soundly and was awakened by my movement.

"Rosa, why aren't you sleeping? It's so late at night."

I showed him the surveillance video from my phone, clearly showing every move of Halle.

Frank, who was originally drowsy, woke up at once.

He frowned and quickly snatched my phone, carefully examining every frame of the video.

"What's going on?"

"You should ask Halle!"

I thought he was referring to Halle.

"I'm asking why is there video surveillance in our room?"

He said sternly as he looked around.

He raised his voice so abruptly that I was taken aback.

"What's wrong with you?"

I was a little annoyed.

"That's what I wanna ask you. What's wrong with you?"

Frank glared at me, pointing to the circular surveillance video in the upper right corner of the room, and questioned me.

"Why did you install a camera in the room?"

He rarely confronted me like this.

I knew it was not right for me to install surveillance in the bedroom without asking him first, so I softened my tone and attitude.

"Frank, I told you that I lost a diamond necklace before, right?

"You know I've always had a good memory, and things won't just disappear for no reason.

"I installed this surveillance just in case.

"But there was indeed a thief!"

Frank remained silent after hearing my explanation.

I thought he was hurt by Halle.

After all, he trusted her so much.

"Frank, don't blame..."

"Rosa, I never expected you to be such a person!"

Before I finished speaking, Frank interrupted me.

I didn't get to say "Don't blame Halle".

"Halle told me that you have always had a problem with her, and I persuaded her, telling her that that's not who you are.

"But what you have done?"

I was confused by what he said. What did I do?

"You wouldn't let her wear your clothes. Now, you're smearing her for stealing?

"Rosa, I know her the best. She won't steal!

"This is a fake video, right?"

I was really stunned.

The evidence was right here, but he still refused to believe it.

"Fake? How is it fake? See for yourself. It clearly shows the time! And this is definitely Halle!

"Besides, she wore my clothes without my consent. It makes sense that she steals from me!"

Perhaps my sharp tone provoked Frank.

He, the so-called honest man, got angry.

"Rosa! Halle is my sister! I know better than you whether she will steal things or not!

"And what about you? Ever since Halle moved here, you have always been unable to tolerate her!"

I asked.

"So, you mean I deliberately framed her?"

Frank fell silent.

Sometimes not answering was the best answer.

I had been with him for a year. We got married.

But he didn't trust me at all.

I couldn't help but laugh. "Fine. Let's see who is lying."

While speaking, I dialed a number.

I called the police.

Seeing me calling the police, Frank instinctively tried to snatch my phone.

I dodged easily.

"Rosa! Stop it! OK? Don't make a fuss!"

"I'm making a fuss?"

I rolled my eyes, picked up the potted plant next to me, and threw it at him.

Unfortunately, my aim was off, and it hit the closet, scattering soil all over the floor.

"I suggest you go see help.

"Stop being stupid and annoying me."

The call was quickly connected, and I said concisely, "Sir, someone stole from me.

"It happened at 9 o'clock this morning, and the location is Room 801, Unit 2, Building 1, Flower Community."

After telling them the details, I hung up the phone.

I sat on the sofa calmly, waiting for the police.

Because of the commotion caused by me and Frank, Halle woke up.

Wearing a silk pajama, she walked out.

The neckline was low, revealing a large area of her fair skin.

"Frank? Were you quarreling with Rosa?"

Rubbing her eyes, she asked, feeling drowsy.

"Halle..."

After much consideration, Frank finally organized his words.

"Some of Rosa's jewelry is missing."

"What do you mean?"

Halle was no longer sleepy. She looked aggrieved.

"Does Rosa suspect me again?"

Frank nodded.

Halle snapped, "Frank! I know I was wrong to wear Rosa's clothes, but I swear! I didn't steal her things!"

I sneered inwardly.

Swearing didn't change anything.

"Rosa set up video surveillance in our room."

After Frank finished speaking, her face turned pale at once.

"And she has just called the police."

Halle collapsed on the ground.

At the same time, the doorbell rang.
