Chapter 1036 Chapter 1036: But to everyone's surprise, Allison shifted her focus to him, her voice steady and cutting.

"Dr. Swain, you claim I stole something. So, tell me, how did you know it was the snake-shaped necklace?" Barton stiffened, caught off guard.

"Well... because I saw it!" he blurted, unwittingly stepping into her trap.

"You saw it?" Allison's lips curled into a calm smile as she gestured toward the surveillance camera.

"The footage is unclear, and you can't even identify what was taken. How could you possibly discern anything from that?" Barton shifted uneasily, his tone defensive. "It wasn't from the surveillance. I was hiding in the corner when you were stealing, and I saw it happen with my own eyes," he replied hastily.

His explanation only deepened the sharpness of Allison's gaze, making her next words cut even sharper.

"Kellan has kept this necklace close to him for years. Even if it had been misplaced at the nursing home, there's no chance you could've stumbled upon it by accident. And if you did find it, why didn't you let Kellan know immediately? Why didn't you tell others earlier that I had stolen the necklace? Dr. Swain, I have to say, your story doesn't add up."

"That's because... well..." Barton faltered, struggling to piece together a defense.

The tension in the room escalated, and Kellan's glare darkened with rising fury. "The snake necklace was never at the nursing home. I personally entrusted it to Allison. How dare you try to frher?" His head tilted slightly, his command as ruthless as his expression. "Toss him into the forest nearby and feed him to the wolves." The threat sent Barton's legs trembling, and he turned to Nova in desperation.

"Everything I said is true! Maybe I misjudged what I saw, but Ms. Clarke was definitely up to something suspicious that night!" Allison's eyes narrowed, her gaze flickering with a hint of disdain. It didn't take much to figure out the mastermind behind this spectacle. Nova was pulling the strings.

"Dr. Swain, you really shouldn't say that," Allison said, her words dripping with sarcasm. "As Mrs Lloyd bas already mentioned, without an extensive investigation, it's impossible for anyone outside the Lloyd family to know about this snake-shaped necklace."

Her words pushed Barton closer to breaking, but Nova interjected smoothly before he could collapse completely "Madlarke, there's no misunderstanding here. I mentioned the necklace to Dr. Swain because, when he claimed there was a thief at the nursing home, the blurry figure in the footage remindedof it."

She turned to Brook with a practiced air of sincerity. "You know how much that necklace means tIt's al symbol of the Lloyd family, something meant exclusively for the wife of the heir.” A flash of bitterness flickered in her eyes. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
