Rebecca pointed at the pearls on her headband. “Look, Tahitian pearls. Good quality, though a tad small for a headband.”

“Expensive?”

“Mmhmm…” Rebecca mused. “Just these? They’ve got to be worth at least a grand, right?” She eyed Sherilyn, puzzled. “You didn’t buy this yourself?”

“No.” Sherilyn shook her head.

Edgar, tall and noticeable, was holding a bag, eagerly waiting for Sherilyn to approach.

Rebecca glanced at Sherilyn, tactfully saying, “I’ll go in first.”

“Alright.”

There was no avoiding it. Sherilyn walked up to Edgar and stopped in front of him, frowning slightly, “You…”

“Here.”
