But strangely, Bruce's face was plain, as if Abby was so sad that it had nothing to do with him. He slowly walked to Catherine's side and gently held her shoulder. He looked at Joyce with a bad look.

"What do you mean?"

Joyce didn't expect that Bruce would defend Catherine so much when his sister was here. She was stunned, but she felt more unfair. How could Catherine get the favor of Bruce? But this was a good chance for him to see the true color of Catherine, maybe he could fall for her.

Joyce lifted her chin gently, straightened her proud chest and smiled at Bruce.

"Mr. Li, hope you don't mind. I'm just stating the facts. I didn't say Miss Gu took it."

"No, brother, this is the necklace my mother gave me before she died. You can't do that!" Abby also responded after Joyce.

Catherine suddenly laughed out, and leaned back in Brace's arms, but with a slight grievance.

"Abby, it seems you think I take it? You... believe what an outsider says?"

Abby looked at Catherine and almost felt so angry, but it was not good to show it in front of everyone. She also noticed that she had just said something wrong, she looked at her unwillingly, and said:

"Miss Gu, I think you misunderstood, but I did come closer to you just now. Don't blame me for this kind of thinking. After all, your family... is different now."

Most of the people had heard about failure of the Gu family. Catherine was also disengaged from her ex-fiancé, even people would believe if she was homeless on the street. At this time, everyone looked at Catherine with complicated eyes.

"You are right, Miss Gu, if it's not you, why not let us have a check. After all, it's not an ordinary necklace. It's very expensive. It's still a left gift of Miss Li's mother..."

Catherine's nails were deeply hid in the palm of her hand. If she were searched in front of everyone, Joyce would trample on her dignity. But she knew that Abby and Joyce were determined to hurt her today. It was unlike in the past, she had no noble identity at all.

Suddenly her hand fell into the broad and warm hands, Bruce rescued her palm from her nails, slowly and plainly.

"I'm afraid you misunderstood, Abby." He looked affectionately at Catherine and gently pulled the hair from her forehead behind her ear. "Catherine is your sister-in-law. I can give her anything if she wants. Why does she take your necklace?"

To everyone's surprise, the young master of Li's family in Manche City got married?

What a breaking news, and the woman was Catherine who just got disengaged by the Gu's family.

But no one doubted the truth of the matter. After all, Bruce personally admitted it. The crowd was suddenly chaos and everyone looked at each other.

"I love Catherine at the first sight, Abby, I don't know why you embarrass your sister-in-law with this lady." Bruce looked deep and gloomy and looked coldly at Abby.

Abby couldn't help but step back two steps, but suddenly felt that the person behind her touched her gently, she seemed to know something, and stubbornly stood forward.

"I just remembered that Miss Gu praised my necklace beautiful and she touched my neck. My necklace was probably missing at that time. Now, I require a search for Miss Gu. Brother, our mother has died, and she is an outsider of us. Do you really want to protect her?"

"Yeah, if she really didn't take it, she wouldn't mind if we search her body?" Joyce rejoiced in her misfortune. When she heard Abby's steady tone, she could almost see what it would look like when Catherine was caught.

Catherine knew that she was unable to escape. She knew that she was innocent, but seeing that Abby would rather make the situation worse and want to search her, she had an ominous feeling in her heart.

"It's all right. I'm here." Bruce suddenly whispered in her ear.

Catherine looked up at him, but strangely he reassured her. She nodded gently and stepped out slowly.

"Since you suspect me, then ok, you can search me."

Abby immediately couldn't wait to walk straight to her side, and her hand went straight to the delicate handbag in her hand.

Catherine suddenly thought of a whisper from Abby when she left, and she seemed to intentionally touch her handbag, plus she was so confident, is it...

Catherine felt so nervous and looked at Abby unbelievably. It was no wonder that Abby was so crazy about searching her.

However, it makes her look like a thief in the eyes of an outsider, and she would be observed.

"It is hard to believe that a person who appears to be honest is capable of stealing necklace." Joyce sneered.

However, Abby's expression was somewhat unexpected. She almost turned Catherine's handbag upside down and did not find the necklace.

"How is this possible? How is this possible?" She looked at Catherine sharply. "Where are you hiding? Isn't it?"

Bruce took Catherine into his arms and looked at Abby frowning.

"Enough, isn't it enough tonight? How many times have you used this trick? Butler, send Abby home, don't mess us here." Bruce turned his cold eyes to Joyce. "And this lady, I remember that the Entertainment Dream will not invite people who have no identity."

A security guard immediately rushed to Joyce's side.

"Miss, would you please take out your invitation letter?"

Joyce suddenly looked awkward. How could she get the invitation? She begged her former boss to bring her here. She looked around. The man already hid himself when she became worse.

"I... I... please wait, let me find..."

The words had not yet been finished, and the security guard immediately took Joyce out from the crowd.

This counter-transformation made the people in the room confused for a long time, until Bruce left with Catherine, people started to leave the hall.
