Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Reminded by Jenna, Sophie suddenly remembered the ring she had sneaked out from Bea's old chest. At the time, she knew it was valuable but hadn't given it much thought. Now, looking back, there might be more to it.

Jenna said, "That ring is really expensive. It could be a family heirloom from the Aldridge family. Sophie, you should ask Harold where he got it."

Sophie shook her head gently and said, "I'd love to, but all of Harold's accounts have been deactivated. No one can get in touch with him now." Except... Gordon.

"Wait, didn't Mr. Gordon leave a gift? Where is it?"

Jenna glanced at Adler and Angelo, who were in charge of the gifts. Angelo pointed to a nearby document bag and said, "All the gifts are in here. I thought it was someone's dowry list!"

"What do you mean? Did you look through it?"

"No, but it's a thick stack of papers. I could tell just by touching it!"
