Sylvia's POV:

When Rufus took out the pendant, his expression changed dramatically. "Noreen's scent is on it."

"What?! How?" Leonard's eyes also went as wide as saucers. When Leonard came, we told him about the black witch. We didn't hide it from him anymore. So now he knew that our other purpose of coming here was to find Noreen and save Blair.

"Geoffrey never mentioned this pendant before. It seems that he's still hiding something from us," Rufus said coldly as he eyed the pendant in his hand.

The pendant Rufus was holding now had the exact same chip. That could only mean that they were one and the same pendant!
