In all honesty, the necklace wasn't that important to her. If the request had come from someone else, she probably would have considered it.

However, Kayla was the last person she wanted to do any favors for.

Besides, if the necklace really was a favorite of Kayla's mother, she could have her mom talk to Bennett directly.

If her mother were to make the request, Claudia would certainly consider parting with the necklace.

But giving it up just based on Kayla's say-so? That wasn't going to happen.
