Rebecca’s thoughts turned to her wedding ring the extravagant piece Jeffrey had custom–designed for their marriage.
She remembered how thuilled everyone had been when Jeffrey won that one–of–a–kind pink diamond at auction for her, and how even Jessica had confessed to feeling envious.
Even new, people still talked about what finally became of that diamond.
Rebecca’s gaze fell to the wedding ring on her left hand–one she’d somehow never really noticed. After a long moment of thought, she decided to pawn
it.
It didn’t take long for Jeffrey to catch wind of her plan. He slowly turned the wedding band on his own finger, his eyes glinting with a dangerous edge. “She’s actually going to sell it,” he murmured, his voice low and cold, “She’s got nerve.”

“This is way out of our league. We don’t deal with pieces like this.”
“We only work with luxury brands. Something this unique is way above our pay grade.”
“You might want to try somewhere else.”
Every shop owner gave her some variation of the same story.
