Cecelia couldn't believe her eyes.
For a moment, she thought she was mistaken. She rubbed her eyes and looked again, and clearly there was no mistake.
It was the pendant that belonged to the Hurley family, and there was only one such pendant in the world.
However, after the birth of her child, she put the pendant on her own daughter with her own hands.
Unfortunately, she lost her daughter afterwards, and when Charlotte was found twenty years later, she did not find that silver pendant.
Now, she was so surprised when she saw this silver pendant of the Hurley family again on a total stranger.
Why? How was it possible?
Just when Joyce wanted to stand up, Cecelia held Joyce's arm out of instinct, "Wait."
"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Joyce leaned down again and asked in a soft voice.
Cecelia pointed to Joyce's neck, "I hope you don’t mind me asking. Where did this pendant of yours come from?"
"A pendant?" Joyce subconsciously touched her neck, and then remembered that it was the silver pendant that Luther had insisted on putting on her.
"Yes, where did it come from?" Cecelia asked again. She was obviously unable to contain her strong emotions, and even her voice was trembling slightly.
"Oh, a friend gave it to me. What's going on? What's the problem?" Joyce asked suspiciously, thinking to herself, "Damn Luther, where did he even get this thing? It couldn't be that he stole it from someone's house.”
"It's nothing." Cecelia smiled softly, "Just thought the pattern was peculiar and I am curious."
"It's quite a peculiar pattern, and I don't know what it means. Ma’am, if you're feeling well, I'll be leaving." Joyce raised her wrist and looked at the time, and her appointment with Aaron was long overdue.
