A ring!

Why did both Preston and Maurice lose a valuable ring?

Eliana was a little surprised. What a coincidence!

“What do you need me to do?” she asked after a brief pause.

“All you have to do is find out the whereabouts of this ring.”

Without waiting for her response, Hodge sent her a photo of the ring.

It was exactly the same as Preston’s ring.

The only answer she could come up with was that Mr. Moran and the gigolo were the same person.
