Aurora''s pair was nearly identical,


    but there were subtle differences;


    only a careful eye could spot them


    Even he couldn''t recall all the details


    of the earring he''d picked up, but


    now, holding Simone''s, he was


    almost certain they were a set.


    When their eyes met, Simone''s heart


    skipped a beat. The intensity in his


    gaze was almost


    overwhelming-she''d met plenty of


    powerful people before, but no one


    who looked at her like this. In that


    moment, she was sure Joshua


    wasn''t just another ordinary man.


    Her words came out a bit nervously.


    Aurora had mentioned that only a


    single earring was found in Ste''s


    room. Simone suspected the


    missing earring might be the one


    Joshua had found by chance. Of


    course, that was only Aurora''s


    guess, and no one could say for


    sure.
