Chapter 658

Lisa agreed without hesitation, "Alright, Chloe. I promise."

Chloe laid down the rule, "You can't search it, and you definitely can't touch my purse. Let someone else handle it."

What Chloe didn't know was that the rose brooch was already in there. Lisa felt even more certain that Chloe was clueless about the brooch. "Then let the host do the honors," Lisa suggested.

David stepped up, picking up Chloe's purse. He opened it and started rummaging through it. Despite his thorough search, he found nothing.
