James knew the Luke family could see through right and wrong. None of them would believe Marilyn's lies.
But hearing her smear and belittle Lily over and over still made his blood boil. Even for Victor's sake, he couldn't
hold back.
His eyes swept coldly over the jewelry on her body, then sharpened like blades as they locked onto her. “The
jewelry | gave Lily-why is it on you?”
Ivan hadn't known exactly which pieces James had gifted his sister-in-law. At first, seeing Marilyn dripping with
necklaces, he had thought Victor had given them to her and she simply loved them too much to take off.
Who would have guessed these jewels were James's gifts to Lily?
Lily would never hand over James's presents to another woman. Which meant...
Ivan’s gaze toward Marilyn turned openly scornful.
Not only had this so-called future sister-in-law shamelessly thrown herself at James, now she was caught red-
handed with sticky fingers.
James had been far too merciful. If someone dared steal from him and he caught them in the act, he would have
hacked their thieving hands off without hesitation.
Victor too hadn't realized the jewelry Marilyn wore had all cfrom James. His face darkened to a dangerous
shade.
“Marilyn,” his voice was frigid, “did Lily hit you because she caught you stealing from her? Speak!”
Tears welled in Marilyn's eyes, but this tthey cfrom fury more than grief.
To her, Victor was her man, her support. He was supposed to defend her

How could he scold her-over a few trinkets that should have been hers anyway?
Her chest burned with anger, hurt, and disbelief. For a long moment she couldn't even find her voice.
Henry's head swam with rage.
What on earth had his grandson gotten tangled up with?
A shameless woman who had once clung to James, now exposed as a common thief. If she actually married into
the Luke family, it would be the family’s disgrace.
He shot Victor a hard glare, about to speak, when Marilyn suddenly broke down in tears again.
“These necklaces-Lily gave them to me! How could I steal in my own home?” she cried. “You can’t play favorites.
I'm also a Luke daughter-in-law. Lily beatlike this, you can’t just let it go!”
“Hah!”
Ivan burst out laughing, no mercy in his voice. “First you said you went to her room to chat, and she attacked
you for no reason. But now you claim she gave you gifts? If she hated you enough to strike you out of the blue,
why would she hand you jewelry? The truth is obvious-Lily hit you because you stole from her and refused to
admit it! And Lily was still too soft. If you had stolen from me, I'd have your limbs broken on the spot.”
Marilyn's eyes went wide, stunned.
She was to be his sister-in-law. How dare Ivan speak of breaking her bones? Did he have no regard for Victor at
all?
Inside the jewelry room, Lily replaced the handbags Marilyn had stuffed full of valuables, giving the rest of her
belongings a quick once-over,
From the ruckus in the corridor, she could tell Marilyn had already run to cry victim. Her expression cold, she
stepped out.
The moment James saw her, he strode over and clasped her hand tightly, a silent promise that no matter what
was said, he would be on her side.

Clutching the pendants at her throat, she declared, “These jewels were gifts from Lily!”
“Return them to her at once!” Victor snapped. He was no fool-her lie was as thin
as paper.
He pressed on coldly. “What else did you take from her rooms? Hand it all back!”

They were hers now, she told herself. She couldn't part with them.
“Since Lily gave them to me, they're mine,” she insisted, her chin high. “No one can take them away!”
“Marilyn, you steal and still act proud about it.”
