Seeking another opinion
The unpleasant knot in my stomach intensified with each passing hour. I needed to ease my thoughts. I decided to get another opinion and planned to take the ring to a different jeweler the next day. If nothing else, I’d like to have a straightforward explanation. The need to shed light on this riddle was overwhelming. I wanted to know if my anxieties were legitimate.

A second opinion
The next jeweler was a woman with keen vision and a steady touch. She studied the ring with a magnifying glass, her expression unreadable. Each pause in her investigation caused my breath to catch. I kept a tight eye on her, hoping she’d find nothing unusual, but yet fearing the worse. Her thorough investigation only increased my anxiousness. What will she discover that the first jeweler had alluded about?
