He said, "It's worth the money if you like it. What's more, it holds a special meaning for you."

Knowing that he was wealthy, I didn't refute him and just said, "A man called Elmore Balton bought it. I asked Evan to leave him a message. After I settle everything here, I would like to contact him to open the box."
