Chapter 25

• “I am not pestering you. I just don’t want you to do anything that you might end up regretting, you have a lot going on already.”
• “Yes, I know, thank you for your concern, Patrick but aside from the diamonds that are missing, Sophie isn’t much of a problem and I have reasons to believe that she is saying the truth about not taking it or having anything to do with it being missing,”
• He disclosed. He wasn’t so sure yet but he just couldn’t help but think that she was innocent, aside from her being pregnant, he really had nothing else to tie her to the supposed theft, because he had the guards search the disgraced queen’s house to be sure she didn’t hide it there and there was nothing there. She would not have hidden it somewhere else. Except, her baby daddy had been able to go there but the disgraced queen said there was no one with her. Lance knew he shouldn’t believe everything so blindly but Sophie has worked close to him for two years and she has never stolen from him even though she had a lot of opportunities each time he was drunk.
