Chapter 301

Faced with the pressure, the police officer anxiously tried to string his sentences together and give Jeremy a reasonable explanation for why Corinne had to be handcuffed to the bed. After all, he had heard from the confrontation earlier that Corinne was Jeremy's wife.However, Jeremy did not say anything and merely walked past the policeman and placed the cup in his hand back on the cabinet beside the hospital bed. The end of the straw was already flattened from his chewing on it.After placing down the cup, Jeremy stood beside the hospital bed and glanced at Corinne with a convoluted and incomprehensible expression.Corinne's indifference wavered somewhat when she faced his silent gaze. She frowned, looked right into his eyes, and lowered her face again as she said sullenly, "I didn't do it.""Okay." His tone was very calm as if there was no trace of doubt.Corinne was startled and looked up at him again. 'What does he mean, okay? Doesn't he doubt me even when the evidence is fo

After coming out of the ward, Anya looked around the hospital corridor to search for Jeremy, who had just left. Alas, she did not see any trace of him in the corridor, despite the few minutes' difference between the time she and he came out. 'Where did Jeremy go?'At long last, the stairwell door in front of the corridor was pushed open, and Tommy walked in with a serious expression.Anya walked over immediately just in time to meet him.Tommy nodded slightly and greeted her. "Miss Anya."Anya nodded in return and asked, "Mister Tommy, is Jeremy in there?"Tommy replied truthfully. "Yes. He's inside.""I'll go in and see him, then." Anya then walked over and pushed the stairwell door open.Tommy did not stop her, and he merely glanced at Anya's back as she went in. There was a somewhat conflicted look on his usually calm and steady expression, but he walked away in a hurry because he still had to do some work that his boss had instructed him to do.…Anya walked into the stair

The three of them walked down to the hospital lobby together, with Anya turning heads as she walked between the two handsome men.They had to pass by Corinne's ward to go down, and the police officers were still guarding the door there.A man with a briefcase was explaining to the police officer his purpose for being there.Lucas recognized the man from a distance and he narrowed his eyes. "Is that Gabriel Franklin?"Gabriel was well-known for being a big shot in the legal world. He was the founder of the city's number-one law firm, in addition to being the director of the Newmoon Group's legal department. He generally took major business cases, which made it all the more surprising that he would show up in person just to handle a small case of attempted assault.Anya recognized the lawyer too, so she turned her head to look at Jeremy in disbelief. She had a sad frown on her face as she said, "Do you still trust Corinne? Did you go so far as to hire Gabriel to defend her?"Jeremy

While Corinne was leaning on the bed head with her eyes closed, someone knocked on the door, and an unfamiliar 40-something woman came in."Who are you looking for?" Corinne opened her eyes and looked warily at the woman. 'Why would the police officers let a random stranger in? Who is she?'The middle-aged woman bowed respectfully and said, "Miss Corinne, I'm the nurse that Mister Tommy sent. You can call me Nancy. I'll be here to take care of your diet and your daily needs. Don't hesitate to let me know if you need anything."Corinne raised her eyebrows. "Tommy? Tommy Jenkinson?"The middle-aged woman nodded. "Yes. That's him."Corinne frowned a little. 'Why did he hire a nurse for me out of the blue? Did Jeremy leave? Guess he doesn't believe me anymore, not that I'm surprised since he and I don't have any sort of genuine relationship in the first place! Funnily enough, he seemed to have told me that he liked me and wanted me not to put a wall between us, and I almost believed i

Annie pulled a chair, sat down, and blinked guiltily. "Nothing! I don't really know! It's not convenient for you to eat, so how about you let me feed you?""So you're not going to tell me?" Corinne frowned slightly at her.Annie always viewed Corinne as her idol, and she was afraid that her idol would be unhappy and ignore her. She thought about it for a bit, and she did not dare to keep anything from Corinne."Well, when I came here, I saw him escorting Anya out of the hospital at the entrance, and then…she got into his car."Corinne's expression turned somewhat gloomy. She remained silent, and her lips seemed to quirk unnaturally in a bitter manner.Annie became a little nervous. "Don't be angry! Please don't divorce him just because of that! Give him another chance..."Corinne snapped back from her senses and looked calmly at Annie. "I'm not angry. It's just… Why shouldn't we get a divorce if there aren't any feelings between us?"Annie pursed her lips depressingly. "If you d

Chapter 306

Inside the police station's dark and cramped interrogation room, two stern-looking police officers sat across from Corinne. One of them asked sharply, "Are you going to confess or not?"Corinne sat demurely behind the small table, but her words remained very firm. "What's there to confess when I'm not guilty of anything?"The stern-faced officer frowned unhappily when he saw her being so obstinate, so he said to her, "Aren't you aware that there's room for more leniency if you cooperate? I've been a police officer for many years, and I've seen many suspects who are just as stubborn as you are. But no matter how stubborn they are, they all regret it once the sentence is handed to them! A young girl like you shouldn't have engaged in such reprehensible behavior, and it's even more appalling that you don't have a single ounce of regret for doing something illegal and harming other people. Your parents would disown you if they found out what you did!"Corinne said, "Have you ever heard

Gabriel replied in a polite yet solemn manner, "I'm a lawyer, Mister Lucas, and my duty is to ensure the fairest result for my client in addition to clearing her name. No one should be left to bear the consequences of actions that they haven't done."Lucas chuckled. "If you say so, then. I'm curious to know how you can prove her innocence, given how solid the evidence is."Corinne sat according to the arrangement designated by the police officers. After a while, the gangster who attacked Anya was brought in by another police officer. Anya immediately cowered in fear into her brother's arms when she saw the man, and Lucas could only hug her as a means of comfort. There was a murderous tinge in his expression when he glanced up at the gangster.Gabriel then began to ask, "We met yesterday, so I won't make another introduction. Could you please repeat your crimes as you have committed them?"Chris had already pleaded guilty, so there was no point trying to argue. He nodded earnestly a

Chapter 308

Gabriel went out to give the witnesses a call.Rosie stood up, crossed her arms over her chest, and walked up to Corinne. She then said in a kind and almost-persuasive tone, "Don't think that you can clear your name just because you managed to hire a big-shot lawyer! How dare you hire someone to hurt Anya? Lucas will never allow you to get away with it! My advice? Stop trying to resist and just accept the punishment of the law. You might even be able to get a lighter sentence if you show a good attitude!"Corinne looked up, glanced at Rosie, and could not be bothered to entertain the woman's pointless tirade.Rosie was frustrated when Corinne ignored her, and she was extremely unhappy because her provoking never had the intended effect. It was as if there was never a situation where Corinne would lose her composure, and it seemed that nothing was capable of stirring her emotions. Her ever-calm demeanor made Rosie feel like slapping her out of curiosity to know if she could feel pain

Chapter 309

The little boy's belief in his father seemed to have collapsed, and he took a step back with a hurt expression. "Why did you do bad things, Dad? Didn't you always teach me to be a good person? How could you do this? You're not my dad anymore! I don't want a dad like you...""Don't talk to Dad like that, Kenny!" After the little boy came in, a plainly-dressed woman walked in too. Once she told her son off, she looked at her husband with a heartbroken expression and said, "Aren't you going to tell the truth, Chris? Do you want to let our son forever live with the shadow of having a criminal as a father?"Chris heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his wife and son appearing safe and sound. Even so, he felt ashamed to face them too, and he lowered his head to say, "I'm glad that you and Kenny are all right. That's… That's all that matters to me.""Yes, Chris. Everything's okay now. We were saved!" The woman leaned on her husband's shoulder with reddened eyes. "Why did you have to be so s

Before Chris revealed who it was that manipulated him, he bowed at Corinne and apologized guiltily. "I'm very, very sorry for what I did, Miss Corinne. I did it under coercion, and I had no choice but to frame you. I'm sorry that I nearly caused an innocent person like you to be imprisoned."Corinne had an indifferent expression, and she shook her head while saying, "It's okay. You just need to tell the truth and clear my name.""I promise I will, Miss Corinne!"Chris then began to tell the police the true story of what happened."It all started like this. I was distributing flyers on the shore of Yonder River the other day, and I was sitting on a bench to rest for some time because I was too tired. There was this girl sitting beside me in a daze, and I figured I could just hand out a leaflet to her while I was resting."I was doing my best to promote the barbecue restaurant to Miss Corinne that day, and she was kind enough to listen patiently to everything I have to say, unlike m
