She is even less convinced of Laura’s sincerity when David seems to be unaware of the ring’s true meaning.Unable to control her feelings of betrayal, Belle devises a plan to inform Laura of the truth. She presents Laura with an assessment kit, which shows Laura the true value of her jewelry collection.
