Tessa Caldwell was utterly shocked.
Why would Faye leave the ledger lying around so carelessly?
Logically, something so important should have been put away even if he left. Although not just anyone could enter his study, there was always the fear that someone with intent might come in, especially since the study wasn't locked at all.

Speaking of which, Tessa deeply felt that not just anyone could be a thief, especially one who steals something from a beloved partner at their bedside.
Just thinking about it, the intense guilt could be suffocating to death.
At this moment, even though the opportunity was at hand and nothing had been done yet, her heart was pounding like a drum.
This kind of feeling, deep down, suggested not to steal the ledger.
