Chapter 193
Lizzie listened to the skillful blame game, sarcasm almost overflowing in her eyes.
“Huh.” A very light sneer escaped from her nostrils.
In the previous life, she couldn’t figure out why Mattie had it in for her
all the time.
Now it seems she was overthinking.
Mattie got caught stealing once, and even though the person didn’t actually see her, she felt guilty and started accusing her of being a thief and using dirty tricks.
“I came to check on the work.”
Upon hearing this, Mattie was first taken aback, then a look of even more obvious doubt appeared on her face.
She looked Lizzie up and down, “You? Checking the work?”
Lizzie looked so young, only about eighteen or nineteen years old. She said she came to inspect the work under the leadership. Who would believe that!
She’s seen this kind of person a lot, sneaking in, trying to steal something to take home!
Just then, the commotion between the two of them caught the attention of others, and a few footsteps were approaching this way.
Out of the corner of Mattie’s eye, she caught a glimpse of a figure, and

her heart skipped a beat. A malicious thought instantly formed in her mind.
Her eyes flickered for a moment, then she suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of Lizzie. She shook the hem of her cotton jacket.
Then, with a “snap,” another brand new army green shoe fell from the hem of the cotton coat, landing perfectly at Lizzie’s feet.
The moment the shoe dropped, Mattic grabbed Lizzie’s hand and posed as if catching a thief, raising her voice suddenly, “Who let you in! Why did you steal things from the factory?”
Her voice was so sharp and piercing that even the person who had just arrived could hear it loud and clear.
As those people approached, she turned around and looked at them as if asking for help, shouting, “Come and see! Someone is stealing things!”
Mattie’s performance was so emotional, if Lizzie wasn’t the one caught, she would have believed it!
Lizzie didn’t show any panic on her face, her eyes scanning through the crowd.
Just noticed in the crowd, Tabitha was there too.
At that moment, Tabitha was also looking at Lizzie.
Although they had never met, Tabitha felt a sense of closeness and liking towards the young girl with clean eyebrows.
She frowned and looked at Mattie.
“Mattie, I saw this girl looking quiet and pretty, she doesn’t seem like the kind of person who would do that, don’t casually slander good

people.”
Mattic and Tabitha never got along. Whenever she heard Tabitha speak, she would get really angry.
“Misunderstanding? She was caught red–handed by me!”
She pointed her finger firmly at the brand new shoe by Lizzie’s feet, “I’m Mattie, everyone knows who I am! And all of you can see, this shoe fell off her, how can this be fake?!”
The workers around all focused on the brand new shoes that had fallen to the ground.
Then he looked at Lizzie with a look of inquiry and suspicion.
Lizzie faced Mattie’s smug expression, but her eyes were getting
colder.
Although nothing from the past life has happened in this life, she’s not planning to let Mattie off easily this time!
She wanted to stand up for the little girl in Tabitha’s family!
Lizzie didn’t panic at all, “Caught red–handed? I think it’s more like the pot calling the kettle black!”
Mattie wasn’t very educated, it took her a while to realize that Lizzie was basically calling her a thief.
“What are you talking about!” Mattie’s voice suddenly became sharp, “I’ve been working in the factory for four years! Four years! When have I ever taken anything from the factory? Everyone can see that!”
Mattie pointed at Lizzie, “Do you know what she just said? She said she came to inspect the work by herself! Look at her, does she look like a leader? She was caught by me and still wants to deny it! She even

tried to deceive me by saying she’s a leader, trying to get away with it!”
Everyone looked at Lizzie with suspicion.
Lizzie was still not in a hurry. In her past life, she was naive, had a clumsy mouth, and had some stains on her body that couldn’t be explained clearly.
But in this life, she won’t be bullied by anyone again!
She looked at Mattic with a half–smile, “So, between the two of us, one of us must be the thief, right?”
Mattie felt a bit nervous as she was being stared at by Lizzie’s bright
eyes.
She glanced around with the corner of her eye and saw people pointing at Lizzie. She felt like her words just now had an impact.
