My Girlfriend Is A Reincarnator? - Chapter 4

“Huh?”

Alvin was stunned.

He was very interested and ready to hear the boss announce who the thief was.

However, Alvin heard the boss call out his name.

In an instant, dozens of people in the company looked at Alvin in unison.

Alvin forced himself to calm down. He undoubtedly knew that he had never been involved in such a thing.

So he asked, “Mr. Smith, may I ask why you suspect that I did it?”

“Divination.”

Mr. Smith answered clearly, “I bought a set of divination cards yesterday. The question I raised for divination was ‘Where is my watch now?’”

“And the divination result was a Sagittarius male wearing a black sock on his left foot within a hundred meters of me! According to the questionnaire all of you have provided earlier, the only one who fits the bill… is you, Alvin.”

…

Alvin was stunned when he heard that.

Divination? Sock? Constellation?

In this day and age, was there really someone who treated this as a means of solving crimes?

Now, they have even suspected him.

Alvin felt a rush of blood in his head.

Naturally, he was angry.

He had worked in the company for two years, and he had never done anything to let the company down.

Even when he was looking for the boss’s watch yesterday, he had done his best.

All he wanted was to finish his work promptly and go home early.

But now, Alvin was regarded as the number one suspect. The boss was so confident that he did not waver at all.

And his colleagues at this moment also showed all kinds of emotions.

Jerry became the peacemaker, speaking to the boss on Alvin’s behalf. Jerry said that this matter should not be settled so hastily. Moreover, even if divination was useful, it should be done again in front of everyone. The result might turn out different this time around…

Most people just pretended that nothing had happened and stared at the computer screen to do their work. However, they were actually using the reflection of the black screen to watch everything.

And there was another group of people who had a different reaction. Although Alvin was usually cautious enough, he had somehow offended them. This group did not hide their joy when they saw what was happening. They sneered at Alvin behind the boss’s back.

“I didn’t do it,” Alvin regained his composure and pointed at the table. “Although it’s illegal to do this, you may search my table.”

Alvin knew that he didn’t steal the watch, which was why he dared to say such words.

That was why he dared to let people search his drawers.

The boss rolled his eyes. He went over to Alvin’s desk personally and started rummaging through the drawers.

Soon, he took out a diamond inlaid watch from the bottom drawer.

It was a platinum-plated case with twelve small diamonds inside. It was indeed the watch that the boss treasured.

When the boss raised his watch, he walked around the office like he was in a parade.

Some people covered their mouths and snickered, while others frowned and looked gloomy.

Jerry, who had been trying to smooth things over, suddenly slapped himself hard. He glared at Alvin before returning to his seat.

Sighs filled the entire office.

No one blamed Alvin. Everyone was very busy.

But they expressed their dissatisfaction in their way.

“Caught red-handed. What else do you have to say?”

The boss took out his phone and acted like he was making a call. He looked at Alvin smugly yet also disappointed.

If it wasn’t for that divination, the boss wouldn’t have thought that the person who stole the watch was Alvin.

Alvin gave people the feeling that he was always very calm and down-to-earth. Usually, he didn’t talk much. However, whenever he spoke, it would be something important. He was just a child who had just entered society, yet he had an inexplicable sense of maturity.

If not for this incident, Alvin would have been promoted next year.

Alvin sighed deeply.

He knew that someone had framed him.

If there was still a glimmer of hope, then the only way was to find the person who had framed him…

Alvin seized the time to think in his mind. Before the law enforcement agencies came, he had to find some clues.

Unfortunately, the security cameras in the office yesterday were also broken. Inspecting the security cameras and footage would not have been effective. Hence, it was not reported due to its insignificant impact.

If there was a clue, then it should have come up yesterday.

Alvin swept his eyes over everyone, but no one made eye contact with him. Their eyes evaded his gaze.

Everyone was ashamed of him.

No one was willing to work with someone who was suspected of theft.

Compared to the possibility of their things being stolen, what was more important was their pride.

Once a person remembered that the thief was their colleague, anyone would start to wonder if they had also stepped into the lower class.

Alvin understood this feeling because he had thought the same yesterday.

“I have nothing to say,” Alvin replied.

In the era where evidence was important, it was useless if only one person knew the truth.

…

“Young Master.”

At this moment, a sweet female voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the door at the same time.

Including Alvin.

First of all, there were not many female employees in their area. Most of the female employees were in other areas.

In the office that was filled with all kinds of hypocritical words, someone had suddenly called out ‘Young Master’.

This was another line that could only be heard in television dramas, but they suddenly heard it here in real life.

Alvin looked towards the door.

Alvin, who had always been known for his steadiness, almost fell.

Aurelia stood at the door and was dressed in a maid’s outfit.

Under her headband, her wavy hair was slightly straightened to suit her current image. Compared to when they met at the cafe, her makeup was much lighter now. She was only wearing lipstick.

However, she was still undoubtedly beautiful. For a moment, everyone’s breathing stopped for half a beat.

“Young Master?” Aurelia called out again, and then she walked towards Alvin.

Click, clack, click, clack.

That was the sound of her shiny leather shoes as she stepped on the wooden floor.

Everyone’s mouth was slightly agape. Looking at this scene, they did not know how to control their expressions.

“Young Master, you’re probably done ‘experiencing life’. Let me take you home,” said Aurelia.

The office was quiet for a long time.

Alvin broke the silence. “You… why are you dressed like this? The security didn’t stop you?”

This office building was purely for office use. There weren’t any other types of shops like cafes in this building.

If Aurelia came in dressed like that, she would have definitely been stopped and deemed as a lunatic.

However, Aurelia only smiled. “How can they stop someone who wants to see you, Young Master?”

Hiss…

The sound of hair scratching could be heard from all around the office. Everyone was stunned by this line and began to wonder if they were involved in a large-scale variety show..
