Flirtatious husband: Why he wants to marry me? - Chapter 38：The culprit 3

The officer takes out the piece of paper.

“According to the result, we found traces of fingerprints on the necklace and it came from three people.”

Madame Gezel automatically smirked when she heard the officer’s word.

“See Kira?” She turns her head to Kira.

“Only me and Gaile lay a hand on that necklace. I am pretty sure that the other fingerprint belongs to the culprit and it is you.”

Madame Gezel smirked as if she is sure that the third person is Kira.

“Continue, officer.” Kira ignored Madame Gezel.

“Alright, ma’am!” The officer replied.

” The fingerprints belong to Madame Gezel, Miss Gaile Fuente and the other one belongs to one of the servants.”

Madame Gezel’s expression instantly changed as if she wants to say, ‘ What the heck?’

‘How come?’

Gaile turned pale and she tightened her grip on her dress.

The servants were stunned too and they knitted their brows as they looked at each other.

Tim looked at Kira, he can’t see any expression of his wife’s face, but he still felt relieved now that Kira has proved her innocence.

“Continue officer, and tell us who is this servant who betrays its master,” Kira said plainly.

“Alright, Mrs. Tan.” The officer replied and then he looked at the people in front her him before he continued, “The third fingerprint belongs to Linda.” The officer continued.

Everybody in the room was stunned to hear the officer, (A/N: Except for Kira) and they turned their heads to Linda!

“Linda?” Madame Gezel blurted out with her unbelievable expression!

Linda’s face instantly turned pale!

She looks like she has drained all her blood from her face and she started to tense up!

“I…M-Mr. O-Officer…” Linda stammered.

“Linda, could you explain this?” Tim coldly said to Linda.

“Y-Young Master!”

“I- I don’t know what they are saying!” Linda said.

“So, you’re saying you didn’t steal the necklace and put it inside my closet?” Kira asked coldly.

“Missus, I couldn’t do such a thing!” Linda said in a trembling voice and she seems like crying!

“Oh, really?”

“How could you explain the forensic result then?” Kira asked in a cold expression.

Linda was out of words!

“How could you do this, Linda?” Tim confronted Linda.

“I trusted you, but how could you betray the Missus?!”

“Y-Young Master!” It is the only words that Linda was able to say!

“I know Linda couldn’t do it without someone backing her up,” Kira said.

“Missus!” Linda blurted out.

“Now, tell us who ask you to set me up,” Kira demanded, though she has an idea of the culprit, she still wants Linda to reveal it, on her own.

Linda looked at Kira, she started to tremble and bids of sweat started to pop out from her forehead!

“N-No!”

“I didn’t set you up!” Linda still tried to deny.

“Why you can’t look me in the eyes, Linda?”

“M-Missus…” Linda’s grip tightened.

“Linda, tell us what you know or I will call the authority to lock you up to jail!” Tim said with authority.

This time, Linda suddenly kneels in front of Kira.

“I’m sorry, Missus!” Linda said as she rubbed her hands and kowtowed to Kira while crying.

“I am sorry!” She repeated and continued to kowtowed.

“Why are you apologizing?” Kira asked coldly.

Linda looked up at Kira, ” Missus, I didn’t want to do it, but I am in so much need of money!” Linda doesn’t think of the words she says.

Everybody in the living room gasped!

“Senior Linda!” Becca and Jane blurted out.

“You’re in so much need of money?” Kira repeated.

“Yes!”

“Yes, Missus!” Linda replied as she keeps on rubbing her hands while crying.

“Someone bribed you,” Tim said.

“Yes, Young Master!”

“Please, forgive me!” Linda begged.

“Then tell me, who?” Kira said.

Everybody in the living room is silent.

Gaile seemed anxious while Madame Gezel’s expression darkened as she looked at Linda.

“Yes, Missus!”

“I will tell you!” Linda said.

“Who?” Kira asked again.

Linda slowly raised her head and her gaze fell to Gaile and Madame Gezel.

She slowly lifted her hand and pointed one of them.

“It’s her!” She said while aiming her finger to Gaile!

Gaile’s face went pale!

She was not able to respond immediately!

“You?!” Madame Gezel blurted out in an unbelievable expression while Tim and Kira are not surprised anymore!

“W-What are you talking about, you old witch?!” Gaile acted as if she doesn’t know anything!

“You knew that I needed a big amount of money for my husband’s medical expenses!”

“You took advantage of me, you told me to put the necklace on the Missus’ closet in exchange for money!” Linda said with details.

“You lier—”

“Enough Gaile!” Tim yelled to Gaile which made her shut her mouth!

“Now it made sense to me.” Kira suddenly spoke again.

Everyone turned their gaze to Kira.

“Searching for auntie’s medicine was just your alibi.”

“I didn’t think too much when you let me check auntie’s drawer that contains her jewelry!” Kira said as her gaze towards Gaile turned sharp!

“Very well Gaile! Very well!” Kira said sarcastically!

“Why Gaile?”

“Why would you do that to me?” Kira asked.

Gaile knows, she has no way to deny it!

So, she just decided to fight back Kira’s sarcasm.

“Ha!” Gaile let out a short and sarcastic laugh.

“Isn’t it obvious?”

“I did that because I want to get rid of you, Kira!” She said honestly.

“Why do you hate me?”

“Is it because I am Tim’s wife?” Kira is aware that Gaile likes Tim, some people would do stupid things for love.

“Yes!” Gaile replied straight forward.

“You don’t belong to Tim’s world! You don’t deserve Tim!” She added.

“And who do you think deserves me?” Tim spoke.

Gaile’s gaze averted to Tim and tears started to form in her eyes!

“Tim…”

Gaile walks closer to Tim and she embraces him!

“It should be me!”

“Stop it Gaile!” Tim said as he pushed Gaile.

Gaile staggered and she looked up to Tim with her stunned expression!

“Why?!” She asked resentfully.

“Why does it have to be her?”

“Why didn’t you choose me instead?”

“I am much way better than her and we knew each other since we were young!”

Gaile approached Tim and tried to embrace him again.

“Gaile stop this!” Tim rebuked her.

Tim tried to push Gaile away from him but Gaile just won’t let go of him!

“No!” I won’t stop!” Gaile refused.

“Just open your eyes, Tim! Open your eyes and try to look at me!”

“I can be more than just a friend, Tim!” Gaile insisted.

Kira narrowed her eyes and her face turned dark as she looked at the woman embracing her husband!

She hurriedly approaches Gaile, grabbed her away from Tim and slapped her face from left to right!
