"Oh, the same thing he did", Paul didn't hesitate to respond. "It's not right to keep that kind of money. It's not just $20, you know." (not hesitate)
Shelley thought about it for several moments. She couldn't help wondering how the police would know whose money it was. (who)

She wondered whether the builder would be lucky on this occasion.
