Chapter 141
So, this emerald pendant was made within a week!
It’s clear as daylight that this emerald pendant was churned out just to pull the wool over her eyes.
Upon seeing the shock and anger on Thalassa’s face, Greta hastily said, “How can a grown up like you
believe a kid so easily! This is mind-boggling! If you don’t believe this emerald pendant is real, then
give it back to me!”
While talking, Greta snatched the emerald pendant from Thalassa’s hand.
Battling her inner emotion, Thalassa patiently asked, “Greta, who gave you this emerald pendant?”
“I found it on the street!” Greta answered resolutely, but her eyes were shifty, betraying her lie.
With a scoff, Thalassa retorted, “Since this isn’t my emerald pendant, maybe you should return the
three hundred bucks I gave you.”
“Why should I? You gave it to me as a token of gratitude, and I’m not giving it back!” Greta’s stance

Thalassa felt both angry and helpless, she said, “You can keep the money, just tell me who gave you
the pendant and I’ll drop the issue.” ‘I already told you that I found it on the street! Greta stubbornly
refused to spill the beans.
Atticus said coldly, “Ma’am, if my mom calls the cops, they can haul you away. You not only lied but
also cheated my mom out of her money.”
*Indeed, fraud can get you in the slammer,” Dorian chimed in.
A light bulb went off in Thalassa’s head, right, she could call the police.
She immediately took her phone out.
Hearing this, Greta panicked and quickly grabbed Thalassa’s hand, pleading. “Don’t call the cops. I
admit it was Isabella who gave me the emerald pendant. She said if I gave it to you, you’d give me
money. My son hasn’t been home in a year, and I’ve been so broke ! can’t even afford food. I had no
choice but to do as she asked.”
So it was Isabella!
Five years ago, Isabella locked Thalassa in a cabin, stole her boyfriend, and ruined her life through a
stranger. Wasn’t that cruel enough? And she was scheming against Thalassa again, what a heartless
bitch!
Upon hearing Isabella’s name. Thalassa was so angry her chest heaved, “Just give me the pendant,
and keep the money. If Isabella contacts you again, tell her I’m dead!”
Thalassa was infuriated. Isabella was such a sly fox who was definitely up to no good!
She didn’t want to be on Isabella’s radar.
Greta just wanted the money, and since the pendant was fake, it was no use to her. So she gave the
emerald pendant back to Thalassa.
Thalassa took the emerald pendant and went home with her four kids.
Meanwhile, David was driving Lysander to Hollowbrook and parked the car at the entrance of the
village. They got out of the car and started walking towards the village.

Yesterday, after Lysander saved Thalassa from John, she bit him out of fear. That bite brought back a
flood of familiar memories.
The force of her bite was something he knew all too well.
That night, he couldn’t sleep at all. A thought kept swirling in his head: Thalassa and the woman he met
five years ago were uncannily similar.
Even though Thalassa was Celia’s cousin and they had similar habits, body types, and demeanor, it
didn’t mean they’d bite in the same
way.
Lysander was determined to get to the bottom of this..
He planned to ask around the village if anyone from the Everhart family had passed away five years
ago.
Spotting a woman passing by, Lysander gave David a look.
David got the hint and stopped the woman, asking, “Excuse me, ma’am, did a woman from that family
die five years ago?”
