A big surprise?

Indeed it was a surprise.

A surprise so big she could hardly stand straight.

Thalassa sighed, “Hertha, care to explain the whole story behind this surprise?”

“Well, let me tell you…”

“Mom, is that you, mom?”

Hertha hadn’t even started her explanation when a childish voice came through the phone. It was

Sophia’s voice.

Her little voice was filled with joy.

“Yes, it’s your mom. You talk to her,” Hertha handed the phone to Sophia.

Sophia clumsily held the phone, which was bigger than her hand, to her ear. It nearly slipped from her

grasp, but she managed to prop it with her neck. In her sweet, childish voice, she asked, “Mom, did you

receive the money?”

Thinking about last night’s predicament, Thalassa felt a bit helpless, but Sophia’s voice warmed her

heart.

She replied, “Yes, I received it. All two hundred thousand.

The money led her to receive an unfair punishment from Lysander last night; however, she was grateful

for Sophia’s good intentions and didn’t want to let her down.

She could feel Sophia’s deep love for her.

Her love for her child was also overflowing.

“Thalassa, now that you have Elowen’s winnings from the gourmet competition, you have four hundred

thousand in total. You didn’t give birth to four burdens, but four little treasure chests,” Hertha praised on

Thalassa asked, “Can you explain what happened?”

Even though she had a general idea, she still wanted to hear the details from them to confirm her

thoughts.

“Well, Thalassa, your daughter Elowen is a food critic, and your youngest, Sophia, is an antique expert.

She insisted that the circular pendant was an antique and forced me to sell it at the curio shop. I

thought I’d give it a try, and it turned out to be a real antique! I couldn’t believe it when they offered me

two hundred thousand for this little gadget.”

Hertha, excited, rambled on.

“The shopkeeper said the pendant was worn by an ancient royal and hence was worth two hundred

thousand. He was a good man; if he cheated me, I would have sold it for a few thousand. But he

offered two hundred thousand outright; so I immediately agreed.”

“Sophia is so clever. She knew it was an antique. She said you bought the circular pendant at a toy

shop for a hundred dollars? Good job, Thalassa. You’ve made a fortune! This beats working any day.”

Thalassa listened to Hertha’s story, her heart relieved..

She knew it. The circular pendant was the “toy” she had bought at the toy shop.

It wasn’t the one from Lysander’s house.

She bought the toy before seeing the identical circular pendant in Lysander’s house. There were

definitely two pendants, and the one Lysander lost wasn’t the one Richard brought yesterday.

Once the toy pendant was cleaned, it was indistinguishable from the one Lysander had.

Lysander wasn’t an antique expert and hadn’t examined it closely, so he thought it was his lost

pendant.

She was right all along.

To clear her name, she needed to find Lysander’s missing pendant.

It was a difficult task, but she couldn’t bear the false accusations.

She had to try no matter how difficult it would be.
