My Sister Stole Our Grandma’s Jewelry to Buy a Convertible – She Thought She Got Away with It, Until I Taught Her a Lesson She’ll Never Forget (4 of 8)
“Don’t play dumb, Sophia. Her jewelry. The pearls. The bracelet. The wedding ring. Where are they?”
She rolled her eyes and scoffed. “Oh my God, Joyce, calm down. It’s not a big deal.”
Not a big deal? I thought, staring at her.
“She wasn’t even wearing them! They were just sitting there, collecting dust! Meanwhile, I needed a car. This one was on sale, so…” She flipped her hair and smirked. “I pawned them. Simple.”
“Seriously, Sophia? Do you have any idea what you did?” I asked. “You STOLE from Grandma.”
“I didn’t steal them, Joyce. I just… repurposed them. Grandma wasn’t even wearing most of that stuff anymore.”
“So, you thought selling them was the logical solution?” I asked.
She rolled her eyes. “Oh, please. Grandma doesn’t need money, and I do. This car? It’s not just a car. It’s an investment in my future. People take you seriously when you drive something nice. It’s like… an image thing.”
That’s when I knew I wasn’t going to let this go.
If Sophia thought she could take what she wanted, and that Grandma was too weak to fight back, she was wrong.
She was dead wrong.
