Zoe nudged Ablett immediately, staring him down before giving a knowing look towards the bracelet.
Following Zoe's gaze, Ablett's eyes widened in shock upon seeing the bracelet.
"Where did you get this bracelet, Hayes?" He asked.
Hayes, sitting perfectly straight next to Zoe, took a while before he uttered, "Te...Teresa...gave it to me."
Ablett looked stunned.
Teresa? Who was Teresa?
Meanwhile, Zoe held onto Hayes' bracelet without letting go.
She remembered when they sold the bracelet years ago, it fetched a staggering half million dollars. Now that the money was all gone, she wanted to get the bracelet back.
So she held it dearly, examining it over and over again.
She glanced at Ablett and sighed, "This bracelet could fetch a handsome sum..."
Ablett shook his head in exasperation, whispered, "Can't you focus on what's important? Is now the time to think about money?"
Zoe looked downcast. Of course, she understood Ablett's point, but this bracelet had been sold so many times before. Now, it seemed to have been sold to this Teresa, who then gifted it to Hayes. And somehow, it had found its way back into her hands.
She wouldn't let this chance to make some money slip away.
Yuna, standing nearby, quickly grasped her mother's intentions and bluntly said, "The bracelet is a fake, an exact replica."
Zoe looked startled, "Fake?"
A fake wasn't worth anything! All her excitement was for nothing!
