“Oh, come on, Sabrina, why so formal? He gave it to you without expecting something from you in return.”
“The necklace is a pricey item. Even though he’s wealthy, I can’t accept something so valuable without returning something.”
Bettie gave Sabrina an exasperated roll of her eyes and sighed. “What a shame.”
It was clear that Sabrina harbored no affection for Bradley.
In accordance with their initial plan, they were to have just returned from Shadowlake.
However, given their progress, the three of them made a spontaneous decision to head to Summerash.
Summerash was a small village within Violetness, where they could take pleasure in the picturesque Landscapes and the
breathtaking aurora.
During that season, Summerash was engulfed in a polar night.
The group wandered through Summerash, entranced by the coastal views and majestic snow-capped mountains. They paused
frequently to capture memories with photographs.
Bettie and Sabrina spent much of this time quietly assessing Sabrina’s mood.
Seeing their concern, Sabrina smiled reassuringly and said, “Don’t worry. I’m okay. It’s only natural for a woman to feel upset
when she encounters her ex-husband.”
Bettie placed a comforting hand on Sabrina’s shoulder, telling her, “Sabrina, all that matters is that you move forward.”
They returned to their hotel in Violetness for the evening, and the following day, they ventured to Sagecoast.
Perhaps they had grown weary of the snow, for they didn’t stay the night in Sagecoast, choosing instead to return to Violetness
the same day.
As mealtime approached, they headed straight to a new restaurant they had discovered.
Upon finishing their meal, Sabrina was taken aback to find her wallet missing.
“Hey, where’s my wallet? Did I leave it at the hotel?” she questioned, not even considering the possibility of theft.
Bettie promptly offered her wallet, saying, “Here, use mine.”
Sabrina accepted, murmuring, Did I lose it?”
‘m sure I put it in my bag when we left.
“It couldn’t have been lost. It might have been stolen,” Bettie replied.
With a grave expression, Sabrina knew she wouldn’t misplace it. Her bag had been locked, and the lock was still engaged when
she checked.
Her wallet must have been left at the hotel or stolen.
There wasn’t a lot of money inside. The bank card could be activated online or through a call.
