Chapter 102 A Break-In?

• All of a sudden, I recalled the words Carson uttered when he was mollifying my mother-in-law back when she feigned a headache. He said, ‘Mom, do you trust your son or an outsider? If you trust your son, don’t mention this anymore. I know what I’m doing, and it’s definitely not a mistake on my part.’ Also, she was initially hopping mad about Carson spending a fortune to buy jewelry for Jolene, but she then made up with Jolene in no time. After turning it over in my mind several times, I was dead certain that there was something off about this bracelet.

Thus, there’s only one possibility—all this is Carson Boyer’s doing! What a b*stard! Just you wait, I cursed inwardly. Picking up my cell phone, I gave Carson a call, purposely sounding anxious and panicked. “Hubby, come home at once! Something happened at home!”
