The next day Elsie was on her way to take a shower when she noticed a familiar set of jewels upon Doctor O’Donnell’s finger. She was wearing the Conningham Ring, and acted like it was nothing. Elsie found herself at a loss for words, knowing that her friend suddenly bore a small fortune and yet didn’t seem to care. In fact, the doctor was particularly merry, and she hummed as she made her way down the hall.8964 copyright protection519PENANAqoUUOUaqTH 維尼
When next Elsie visited Jack in his cabin she scolded him. “Why is Doctor O’Donnell wearing the Conningham Ring?”8964 copyright protection519PENANANMN6FZV3Tr 維尼
Jack smiled in response. “You told me to express myself more genuinely so…”8964 copyright protection519PENANAl24hZDHrE3 維尼
“I meant for you to be a little more romantic. Not give her a ring that’s probably worth more than you and I could ever make in a lifetime.”8964 copyright protection519PENANAnqYOuumbCG 維尼
Jack patted her on the shoulder. “Don’t worry, she only wants to wear it for a little while. Once we get to Edith Post she’ll give it back to Mr. Tanner, and then he will sell each of the gems individually and we will all split the reward. Oh, and I’ll have you know that this time she invited me to dinner. Can you believe it?”8964 copyright protection519PENANACBBPGYGJwg 維尼
Elsie gave an amusing smile. “No, Jack, I really can’t.”8964 copyright protection519PENANAJsP8GOE8Fn 維尼
