Ethan was on the hot seat now.As a result, he had no choice but to use countless lies to cover up the first one.

"Well, after the Larson family went bankrupt, they sold tons of valuable antiques, paintings, and rare calligraphy that had been collected for so many years.My grandmother liked collecting all kinds of precious and beautiful jewelry when she was alive.She loved them so much.My grandfather didn't want to take them away from her, so he let her keep them.Upon her death years later, my mother inherited her favorite pieces of jewelry.She held them so dear to her heart that she couldn't bring herself to sell them even in her most difficult time.She later passed them on to me.These two rings were among them."

Ethan decided not to go into details.Too many details would expose hints of his well-coated lies.

Nevertheless, he made sure to give a reasonable explanation.His words weren't entirely false.

Some of the details were actually true.

The origin of the platinum emerald ring was exactly like he told Janet.It used to be his grandmother's.

"Oh, I see.I was extremely shocked to hear the shop attendant's words today.We aren't financially stable.It is practically impossible for you to afford such an expensive ring.I upped and left without saying anything more to her.Something seemed fishy.At that moment, I felt they were only stalling us because they had secretly called the police.Thank goodness we didn't get into trouble back there."

Janet held her chest and heaved a sigh of relief after she finished speaking.She swallowed her husband's words, hook, line, and sinker.

This was because she knew that the Larson family used to be wealthy in the past.It seemed totally normal that Ethan had inherited such priceless jewelry from his mother.
