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.

Eliana clicked on the photo and realized that the ring was familiar.

It was the gigolo’s ring!

It was exactly the same as Preston’s ring.

Eliana’s mind was a mess as she examined the ruby ring in the photo.

Why did two people who had nothing in common and weren’t connected with each other have the same ring?

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

However, Eliana immediately dismissed this possibility.

Maurice and Preston both appeared at the same time that day. So it was impossible that they were just one person.
