"What's Attorney Henson doing out here instead of inside? Couldn't stand watching me and Bryce together? Thinking of running?"
"I suppose it makes sense. You only got him because I went abroad. Now that you see how devoted he is to me, it must be unbearable."
"You really are shameless, you know that? He obviously doesn't love you, yet you cling to him like a barnacle. If I were you, I'd have been gone a long time ago."
Rosamond glanced at her, expression blank.
"I am leaving. Just not yet."
"I'm still waiting for you to return my bracelet."
Olympia ran her fingers along the jade on her wrist, a glint of malice in her eyes.
"And what if I said I have no intention of giving it back?"
Rosamond's voice was ice-cold.
"Then I'll have no choice but to call the police."
Olympia laughed, sliding the bracelet off her wrist as she did.
"Oh, right. How could I forget? You're the famous Attorney Henson. Getting a little bracelet back can't be that hard for you."
"But then again..."
She glanced at Rosamond, then slowly extended the hand holding the bracelet out over the swimming pool.
"What if this bracelet just... disappeared? Calling the police wouldn't do you much good then, would it?"
