Ella’s Pov:
My jaw dropped as the golden bracelet fell out from aunt Julia’s pocket.
“What? You stole the bracelet?” Betty screamed
All eyes were on aunt Julia.
She couldn’t even say a word as tears gradually dropped down her cheeks.
I can’t believe this!
I also started crying.
My dad was stunned….
And everyone gasped in shock.
“You thief!” Dad yelled in disdain
“I don’t understand! I don’t even know how this bracelet got into my pocket” Aunt Julia cried
“You are nothing but a bloody liar… I saw you put the bracelet into your pocket” Cassandra said
Tears kept rushing down her cheeks.
“I didn’t steal anything… I don’t even know how it ended up in my pocket” Nanny cried.
Betty walked up to her furiously and landed a dirty sl@p on her face.
“You liar! You are so ungrateful… Thief!” She shouted.
I couldn’t bear it anymore.
I just know my aunt Julia can’t do this to me.
I believe her… She cannot steal…
Dad walked up to her burning up in annoyance.
He glared hard at her with hatred written all over his face.
“Bloody burglar! Is this what you are going to teach my daughter?” Dad flared up
Aunt Julia was already on her knees…
She was crying her eyes out… Her hair was already tattered.
She kept pleading and begging.
“Sir I didn’t do it! I swear I didn’t!” Nanny Julia cried.
“Stop acting pathetic! You are nothing but a thief” Betty yelled at her.
Dad raised his hand to slap her but I quickly held his hand.
“No daddy! Please don’t!” I cried.
Everyone stared at me in astonishment ?
Dad became very shocked.
I quickly hugged my nanny tightly.
They don’t really understand how much I love my nanny.
She’s not only my nanny, but she’s my best friend.
Tears welled down our cheeks as we held each other tightly.
“And what’s the meaning of this Ella?” Betty scoffed
“Just mind your business Betty!” I barked at her.
She snorted starring at my daddy.
“Ryan? Did you just hear what your daughter said to me?” Betty asked feigning tears
“Ella… I know how much you love Julia but I think it’s high time we do the right thing! I can’t let you, my only child! Be influenced by Julia’s bad attitude! I can’t let a thief be your nanny!” Dad said as I burst into tears.
“She’s not a thief daddy! I know she didn’t steal it!” I cried.
“Sir I did not take it! I don’t know how it got into my pocket… Am innocent sir please believe me!” Aunt Julia cried
“Isn’t it obvious she stole? It fell from her pocket… So which other evidence do you want?” Betty said
“It might be a plot daddy” I said not minding Betty.
“Plot? What do you mean plot? She is a damn thief!” Cassandra said
“My judgement is final Ella! She’s not worthy to be your nanny” Dad said.
“Yes! She has to go back to the slums where she belongs” Betty said
“In the next one hour I don’t want to see you in this mansion” Dad said as he walked upstairs.
I fell on my feet crying bitterly as I hugged aunt Julia tightly.
“Serves you right burglar!” Betty said as she laughed hysterically and walked upstairs.
Veronica rushed to us and we cried together.
Julia’s Pov:
I packed my clothes into my bag still in tears.
Why is everyone disbelieving me?
Why can’t they believe me?
I don’t know anything concerning the bracelet?
I can’t still figure out how the bracelet appeared in my pocket.
I gnash my teeth in pain as I packed my clothes.
Am not feeling bad because am leaving the mansion…
Am only feeling bad because am being thrown out for stealing.
Which I know I didn’t do.
I kept on packing.
I locked my door because I don’t want to see my little Ella cry while I pack..
She has been knocking on my door for the past thirty minutes but I refused to open.
This is really unbelievable.
Tears didn’t stop rolling down my face.
Ella’s Pov:
I wept silently as I walked towards the corridor.
I heard voices inside daddy’s room.
I quickly wiped off my tears and stopped crying.
I walked closer to the door and started eavesdropping.
“Shut up Cassandra! Am only giving you twenty thousand pesos or nothing” Betty said with a hoarse voice.
“Huh? Ma’am you promised to give me twenty five thousand pesos if I lie that I saw Julia steal the bracelet” Cassandra said
?
I covered my mouth with my palms.
I knew it!
I know aunt Julia didn’t do it….
I quickly brought out my cell phone from my jeans pocket.
I quickly put the phone on record.
“Shh… Don’t raise your voice at me! Yes! We planned and plotted the bracelet on Julia’s pocket and I promised to give you twenty five thousand pesos if you accuse her falsely in the presence of Ryan but Cassandra it’s not like it’s a big thing to do.. You should be happy am giving you up to twenty thousand pesos” Betty said
“Ma’am Betty! This isn’t fair at all… My conscience is really disturbing me for what I did to Julia! She’s a good person and doesn’t deserve what I did” Cassandra said.
“This enough evidence already!” I smiled as I saved the records.
I smiled mischievously….
