Sophia hummed a song as she skipped down the stairs, holding something in her hands.

Sitting on the sofa, Dylan called out to her, “Why are you so happy?”

With a grin on her face, Sophia quickly walked toward him. “Grandma gave me something good.”

“If she’s the one giving it to you, it’s definitely a good thing then. Your grandma keeps a lot of good things.” William looked at Sophia and smiled.

Inside lay a jade pendant. It was emerald green and had a perfect, crystal clear appearance.

William was taken aback.
