Chapter 52

Jordan's POV

I sat on the chair in front of a woman. I'm certain my expression was hard and terrifying 'cause I saw fear in her eyes. I crossed my legs and arms. My jaws are constantly clenching as I glanced at Wayne behind her.

"Sir, she's the shop manager," Wayne informed me.

I looked at the woman again and shot an eyebrow up. "Who replaced the ring? Was it you or the owner of the pawnshop?"

She swallowed hard and looked away. "I d-don't know what you're talking about."

I laughed without humor. "The sapphire ring, miss. My wife owns that ring and you brought it to an auction."

She gasped and looked at me. Fear was very evident in her eyes. Yes! Fear me 'cause I won't let this slide. I wronged my wife because of this craziness.

"W-We bought it from your wife, sir."

I clenched my jaws and my expression hardened. I'm losing my patience. Bought it from my wife? If I didn't hear my wife arguing with the pawnshop owner, I would believe this woman but no. She wouldn't be here in the first
