The Queen Returns And She’s Unforgiving

Chapter 232

It was as if the two pieces were originally part of a set.

Could it be that the Reed family's heirloom was truly a set with this necklace?

Evelyn examined it repeatedly in surprise, unable to shake her suspicion. Then, she slowly furrowed her brow.

Had Lucas left it here?

She was certain there had been nothing on the nightstand when she had gone to bed last night.

Was this supposed to be a birthday gift?

She was not particularly shocked. Lucas had always arranged gifts for her in the previous years. He had a meticulous nature and gentlemanly manners. Even with his distant personality, he maintained basic courtesies.

He would not pretend not to know something he was aware of.

But they were already divorced.

Evelyn only looked at the necklace for a few seconds before closing the box and putting it away.

She planned to ask Deborah if the pieces were actually a matching set.

If they weren't, she had no reason to keep it. If they were, she would not accept it for free.

Yesterday, Graham had asked her to meet again this morning to discuss what they had gained from the trip.

Sebastian had already gone over early in the morning.
