"Boom!" The vase instantly fell on the floor and broke into two pieces.
Scarlett hit the cabinet where the vase was placed, causing a sharp pain in her waist.
Alexander didn't expect Libby to be so bold. Tomas spent a lot of effort to get this vase. However, Libby dared to do so.

As soon as the vase fell on the ground, Libby shrieked, "Oh gosh! What are you doing? You're just taking pictures.
Can't you be more careful?" She made a preemptive strike. There were only three people here, and Alexander was her cousin, so she believed that he would help her rather than an outsider.
Scarlett knew what Libby wanted to do when Libby asked her to take pictures here. Scarlett just saw that there was a surveillance camera in front of her. Due to the angle of the camera, it could only see her stumbling into the vase but couldn't see Libby pushing her from behind.
Libby was screaming and cursing. Alexander could no longer stand it, so he pulled her.
Libby glared at Alexander. "What are you pulling me for? She broke this vase!" At this time, Breanna, who was in the living room on the second floor, ran down. "Libby, why are you shouting? What happened?" At the sight of Breanna, Libby hurriedly complained," Mom, she pushed over Dad's vase!" As she saw the broken vase on the ground, Breanna's expression changed. "What... what the hell is going on? The vase..." "What else can it be? It's all her fault! She wanted to take pictures to post a status update. This angle is good, so she came here, but she lost her footing after that and fell to the vase!" After saying that, Libby snorted. "I don't know if it was intentional!" This vase was Tomas' treasure. Though he placed it at the door, Tomas regularly wiped the vase, no one except himself could touch it.
Tomas put it at the door just because he wanted to see it every day as soon as he came back.
Breanna didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but now it wasn't up to her.

Her face immediately turned cold. "Ms. Reed, I'm afraid it's a bit troublesome." Scarlett, who had been silent, finally said, "Do you want me to compensate?" Libby clucked. "Compensate? It cost more than three million dollars. Can you afford it? Besides, the vase is valuable and unique. Even if you can afford it, can you buy a same one? "I shouldn't have taken you on a tour of the house. After all these years, you're still a bumpkin!" Alexander frowned. "Libby, that's too much!" "I don't think so! It's not me who broke the vase. If she hadn't staggered, would the vase have been broken?" Libby was still grumbling, but seeing Alexander's face, her voice was getting lower and lower. She was afraid that Alexander would give her up.
Scarlett looked at Alexander with a faint smile, saying calmly, "I'm indeed a bumpkin." Whether or not Breanna hated Scarlett, hearing her speaking calmly without any guilt, Breanna was unhappy.
"Ms. Reed, why did you say that? You're our guest. You should take the blame for the broken vase. Libby is right.
You have to compensate. As for how to compensate, it's for my husband to decide." Scarlett chuckled when the phone inside the bag suddenly rang.
She looked at Breanna. "Excuse me, Mrs. Jones, I'll take a call.Breanna's face was gloomy, but she couldn't prevent Scarlett from answering the phone.
