"Rosa, we're family. Why can't we share things?
"Does it count as stealing if I use your money?"
I didn't know Frank could be so eloquent.
He was so good at quibbling!
"I'm not in the mood to argue with you. Let me tell you this. You are not allowed to wear my clothes!"
I looked at Halle, who looked like a frightened deer, and said word by word.
"I'm sorry, Rosa, I'll give it back..."
She took off the jacket while crying as if she had suffered a great humiliation.
"Don't fight with Frank because of me..."
It was the first time Frank and I gave each other silent treatment.
He thought I was deliberately targeting Halle.
I thought he was unreasonable because he was so stupid.
In addition, I was swamped with the factory. So, I gradually forgot about it.
I thought Halle would at least stay out of trouble for a while.
Unexpectedly, just five days later, my precious jewelry disappeared.
My jewelry wasn't cheap, with an average price of over 10,000 dollars.
Usually, I would lock them in the drawer of my dressing table.
Since Halle wore my jacket without my permission, I had become cautious about my things.
But the blue sapphire diamond necklace that I liked went missing anyway.
