I thanked him, expecting ______. However, a few days later, my husband and I met the old man again in the park.

“Guess what,” he said. “I found your diamond!”

As the diamond is worth several thousand dollars, the old man could have easily kept the diamond ____ sold it, but he did neither of these.
