Larissa was unable to sleep the entire night because of what she’d seen at the restaurant.

She couldn’t get Marilyn and Allen’s smiles out of her head.

Larissa calmly told her the seller’s address. “You can just head over. I’ll let them know online.”

“Could you come with me. Larissa? I’ve never bought these types of bracelets before. I don’t know what it’s like to repair them. What if the

“I don’t know, either.” Larissa wasn’t lying. She had never bought jewelry like this. She just thought that this was a trustworthy shop.
