Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

“Yeah, what‘s wrong?” Anna asked curiously when she saw this look on Wayne‘s face.

After Wayne took the earring out of the jewelry box and looked at it for a while, he seemed to be sure of something. He then went into the study.

He had an old black and white photo in his hand when he came out. It looked like it was taken in the last century, and the corners were frayed.

The photo was of a young woman about eighteen or nineteen years old, who was in a beautiful dress. She looked very aloof and had a gold necklace with two emeralds, one was small while the other was large. Although the photo was a bit old, the smooth outline of the emerald could still be clearly seen.

“Who is this?” Anna asked in disbelief.

Wayne took another look at that earring, and then put down the photo and said, “This woman is my grandmother, and what she is wearing around her neck is an heirloom from her mother‘s family. The emeralds set on that necklace were two pieces; one was large and one was small. After World War II began, the Germans occupied my family‘s house. So, she sold the small one for money.”

Anna looked at the earring in her hand and realized that the emerald gemstone was very similar to the one in the photo. She asked, “Is this that one?”

Wayne nodded.

Neither of them had expected that emerald to be sold abroad, and then collected by Jennifer, and later be given to Anna.

“What about the other one?” Anna asked afterward.

Wayne frowned and said, “Grandpa gave me that gemstone, and I made a necklace out of it. Unfortunately, I lost it six years ago.”

Anna froze and couldn‘t help but clench her fists, looking slightly nervous.

Maybe he‘s talking about that necklace I pulled off his neck back then. Anna thought to herself.
