Don't Spout Nonsense

"Will you help...?" Celia looked at Leland with a pleading gaze. "To show our gratitude, I bring you something."

She took out something from her pocket and showed it to Leland. The man's eyes instantly narrowed when he saw it.

It was a simple ring made of gold with a small ruby on it as decoration. He recognized that simple ring and thought he would never see it again.

"How did you have Anne's ring?" he snatched the ring angrily. "I didn't know witches can be grave robbers!"

Celia shook her head. "We didn't rob any graves. This ring was taken from a living person."

"WHO?!" Leland grabbed Celia's collar and was so ready to kill her for an answer. "Who dared rob Anne's grave and steal her ring?"

Celia's body trembled. She replied with a choked voice. "She was not dead. Your mother kept her in prison for years."
