When a man came by, the boy friend asked him to stay with his friend while he went to get a doctor. The man agreed and the boy friend left.
The stranger happened to be at thief. He began looking at all the lady's jewelry. He thought to himself, "If this girl dies before the boy returns, I will take the jewels and run away." His mind was occupied making this plan.
