Chapter 108 Dare to Steal Mr. Davis’s Wedding Ring

Timothy was taken aback, "Lend it to you?"

"Absolutely, this is the ring I designed after all," Penelope said with a light chuckle, "May I take a closer look at it? This is my first foray into the world of high-end custom jewelry."

"Sure thing," Timothy replied after a brief pause.

"Oh, and Mr. Foster," Penelope added quickly, "let's not tell Kelvin about his, okay? I wouldn't want him to get the wrong idea."

"Got it. I'll just say I haven't seen it."

"Thank you, Mr. Foster."

"No problem," Timothy responded, "keep it safe, and give it back once you're done."

Penelope carefully placed the ring back into its box, adding half-jokingly, "I'll guard this with my life. Losing it isn't an option."

Stepping out of the office, Monica couldn't contain her curiosity. "Penelope, are you alright?"

"Hmm?"

"What's with taking the ring?" Monica asked, "Doesn't holding onto Fiona's property bother you?"

"I need it for something."

"You're going to study it...?"

"Shh." Penelope pulled her aside, checking to ensure no one was around, and whispered, "Minnie, I really need your help."

"Let's hear it."

Holding the ornate box, Penelope said, "Fiona lost her baby, and Kelvin's making me apologize until she forgives me. But now, Fiona won't accept my apology and says she'll only be satisfied if I suffer the same loss."
