Chapter 98 Harleen's Interview

As Casey and his team were busy at work, Billy arrived at Harleen's house.

"Daddy!" Tasha ran over to him.

"Have you been good?" Billy asked with a smile as he picked up the little girl.

"Of course! Tasha is always good. Grandpa and Grandma love me more every day!" Tasha boasted proudly.

"Haha, really?" Billy ruffled her hair before turning to greet Fletcher who was coming out of the room. "Hey, Dad."

"Billy, you're here!" Fletcher greeted him warmly.

"Where's Casey? Didn't he come with you?" Sharon came out of the kitchen with a smile on her face as she saw him.

"Mum," Billy smiled back. "He's busy with something else."

"Why don't you invite him over for dinner tonight? I made chicken soup for you guys." Sharon suggested kindly.

"Sure thing! Thanks Mom." Billy replied before Felicia burst into the room excitedly from taking a phone call in her bedroom.

"Billy, have I got news for you! Do you want to hear it?"

"What's got you so excited? Did you get yourself a boyfriend or something?" Billy teased playfully.

"No way! Have you heard about that Heart of the Earth diamond necklace that caused such a stir around the world?" Felicia exclaimed loudly.

"Last time I heard from your sister's friends, they said it was very precious. What happened?" Billy asked, slightly surprised.

"Of course it's precious! There's only one in the world and it's worth billions!" Felicia exaggerated with a smile. "And it's exquisitely beautiful, every woman dreams of having one."

After speaking, she turned to Harleen who was helping in the kitchen and asked, "Harleen, you've seen pictures of that necklace before right? I'm not wrong about what I said?"

"Yeah, it's beautiful," Harleen smiled and responded. "Such a pretty necklace would be attractive to any woman."

"Felicia, is this what you wanted to tell me?" Billy chuckled.

"Yeah, it has something to do with this. Yesterday at an exhibition in Enssea, there were two big events!"

"What kind of events?" Harleen seemed interested and walked out of the kitchen.

"Guess?" Felicia teased.

"Somebody robbed them maybe?" Harleen laughed.

"You got one-third correct!" Felicia replied loudly.

"What do you mean by 'one-third correct' or 'not correct'? What does that even mean?" Harleen rolled her eyes in confusion.

"Listen," Felicia responded. "The owner of Heart of the Earth gave away that priceless treasure for free yesterday."

"What?!" Harleen exclaimed incredulously. "Gave away for free? Wasn't that necklace impossible to buy even if someone had money? How could they give it away for free?"

"Didn't expect that, did you?" Felicia laughed as she spoke. "No one saw this coming."

"To whom did they give it away then?" Billy couldn't believe how fast news traveled all the way to Ozin already. He wondered if he had been exposed, since he hoped to surprise Harleen with something special.
