Novel Male 270
Third Person’s POV
Priscilla flipped through the report with enthusiasm, only to find that the few pages recorded only the sales data of low–priced jewelry, with no precious metal jewelry sold.
Looking at the final revenue summary, it was in a loss state.
The store had lost over ten thousand dollars in just one quarter, more than before.
Priscilla was so angry that she trembled and threw the report on the ground, “Why such a huge loss? You need to explain this to me!”
Johnson knelt down and said with a wailing face, “Priscilla, you don’t know how hard business is now! We tried to stock up at the end of the year to make a fortune, but many of the goods we bought were defective and couldn’t be sold. While other jewelry stores are booming, ours is cold and quiet. It’s really heartbreaking!”
He crawled forward on his knees, picked up the report, and flipped to a page, “Look, it was only with the money you and Wanda provided that the loss didn’t exceed two million dollars. Without that, the loss would have doubled!”
“Nonsense!” noveldrama
Priscilla slammed the table, her face pale with anger, “You say the Golden Jewelry Store is cold and quiet? But when I passed by, I saw the store full of customers, many of whom were carrying shopping bags out.”
Manager Johnson’s heart sank–had Priscilla visited? When?
He suddenly remembered that a store clerk mentioned a wealthy–looking butler buying their popular items yesterday. Could it have been yesterday?
He decided to take a gamble, “Was it yesterday that you visited? We only had decent business yesterday. With so much inventory piling up, Wanda said we had to clear it out even at a loss. Otherwise, we couldn’t justify it to you. We did sell a lot yesterday, but it was all at a loss! We’re still having a discount promotion today. If you don’t believe me, you can check the store yourself.”
Priscilla, hearing his confident tone, actually believed him somewhat.
- Adelaide, seeing Priscilla’s expression from outside, knew she had been deceived again.
She walked in immediately, “Is that so? But I heard your staff say that the gem–embedded bracelets sold batch after batch. That design is clearly copied from the Royal Jewelry Store. Could it be that you’re selling them at a loss? Let me check if this transaction is recorded in the report.”
With that, she snatched the report from Manager Johnson’s hand.
Johnson instinctively tried to hide it, but Adelaide was quicker.
She flipped through a few pages and sneered, “Quite a trick! This transaction isn’t recorded at all, and even the custom–made items for Craig aren’t listed. What exactly is recorded in this report? Johnson, financial fraud is a serious offense.”

Johnson took a good look at Adelaide and was terrified.
Wasn’t this the lady who came to collect the golden bracelet the other day?
She was Alpha Lance’s mate?
Adelaide calmly ordered, “Have someone take the report and Johnson to the police station. Let Mallory thoroughly investigate how much he has defrauded Priscilla and Wanda.”
Beta Ralph immediately instructed two wolf pack guards to take Johnson to the police station.
Terrified, Manager Johnson shouted hoarsely, “Luna Adelaide, please spare me! It wasn’t my idea–it was Wanda’s. She ordered me to falsify the report to deceive Priscilla!”
“What?” Priscilla slammed her coffee cup in anger, “Wanda actually used fake financial statements to deceive me?”
Adelaide signaled Priscilla to calm down, “If the previous reports were fake, there must be genuine financial records.”
Johnson, held by the wolf pack guards with arms aching as if about to break, dared not lie anymore and nodded frantically, “Yes, yes, there are.”
Adelaide, planning to return to the Frostfang Pack that day and not wanting to get further entangled, called Beta Ralph, “Please take some men and accompany him back to the Golden Jewelry Store. Retrieve all financial records from past years and hand them over to the finance department for verification. Check on the spot if they are genuine. If he dares to falsify again, don’t report back–send him directly to the police station.”
Beta Ralph replied, “Yes, Luna Adelaide!”
With a wave of his hand, he had Johnson taken out swiftly.
The carriage was ready and headed straight for the Golden Jewelry Store.
Johnson had never experienced such a scene and was trembling with fear, inwardly cursing, “Wanda said Priscilla was easy to handle. We’ve fooled her like this in previous years, why isn’t it working now? And to be caught by Alpha Lance’s mate.”
He knew Luna Adelaide was a decisive battle–hardened commander, with the police chief being her nephew’s uncle. If sent to the police station, he would either die or be severely punished.
Priscilla was in a towering rage. “Wanda deceived me? How dare she?”
ho else would she deceive if Adelaide had someone clean up the shattered coffee cup and thought to herself, “How dare she? You’ve check things for yourself. always been so afraid of them, afraid of the Madison mother and daughte not you? Plus, you’ve been in the palace all year round and can’t just go out How easy it is to deceive you.”
“Calm down, this is manageable. You had a cooperation contract. Once I’m back at the Frostfang Pack, I’ll go through it with you in detail. Getting angry won’t solve anything.”
Priscilla was on the verge of tears. She had been in business with Wanda, and while others saw profits, she had been subsidizing losses annually, never realizing she was being deceived by Wanda.
