Emily thought for a moment, but Hazel's explanation seemed reasonable. She subconsciously nodded and agreed, "Okay, that makes sense. Still, will accepting this really clear everything up with my classmates?"

Hazel gave her a reassuring smile. "Absolutely. Once I explain everything and tell them I found the necklace, there won't be any more misunderstandings. Trust me."
