Chapter 148

Silvia shook her head. “I picked up the diamond wristlet right after work. Then, I came here straight away. Mr. Remus might be working overtime.”

When Abalene heard this, disappointment filled her eyes. She initially thought that Neil’s accident would bring them together. They had been living in the same house after all. But it looked like things were still the same as before.

Silvia smiled and played along. “Sure!”
