Gabrielle clung tighter to his leg, looking up at him with a puzzled expression.

“Romello, what are you talking about? You suspect me of stealing the crystal earrings? How could I? I’m the heiress of the prestigious Nicholls family! I’ve seen all kinds of luxury jewelry. I would never steal, especially not from Sheena. It’s impossible!”

Romello’s frown deepened.
