Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 215 Wanting Annalise To Plead On Her Behalf

As soon as Bethany got up, he met Julian’s cold and bloodthirsty eyes.

She was so frightened that she shivered and her eyes kept wandering.

She looked around and didn’t see Abigail. She immediately asked, “Where’s my daughter?”

“She’s still in prison. She would die soon,” Julian said.

Bethany’s face turned pale. “What do you want to do to Abbie? I’ll have you know that the society has laws…”

Julian interrupted, “So you do know that society has laws then?”

His voice suddenly rose. “So you lot actually attempted to murder my grandfather, in a society that has laws then?”

“Mr. Julian, we were wrong. I apologize on behalf of my daughter. I’m sorry. I’ll kneel before you.” Bethany knelt

down and bowed.

“What’s the use of the police if apologies solve everything?” Julian’s voice was still cold.

He was someone who had once fought tooth and nail in the underworld, but he still obeyed the law, so he thought

that those people were really ruthless!

He deemed anyone out to hurt Samuel must pay the price.

He did not use his underworld connections to directly take Abigail’s life, because he wanted the punishment to truly

hurt.

Abigail was a greedy and realistic woman. Death would be too easy for her.

He deemed that this kind of woman should stay in prison for the rest of her life and suffer the pain of losing. her

freedom. She should hear about what was happening in the outside world from time to time. The people and things

she had once paid attention to were becoming better every day, and none of that had anything to do with her

anymore

Envy, jealousy, jealousy, regret and all kinds of negativity would fill her, making her suffer and wish she was dead.

“Mr. Parks, please, I’m begging you. On the account that Abbie’s father having saved your grandfather once, can

you forgive us this time? I’m begging you.” Bethany knew that the situation was serious and quickly kneeled before

Julian.

At this point, dignity was no longer important. What was important was to ask for their forgiveness and spare them

from the penalties of the law.

“All that act won’t be of any good to me!” Julian said coldly.

He suspected that Kent had a motive for saving Samuel back then, that perhaps he had long seen through

Samuel’s extraordinary identity.

After all, he wondered how could someone like Kent be willing to help others.

“Anna, Anna…” Bethany shouted.

During this period of time, she had heard from Abbie that Annalise was very doted on. Whether it was Old Mr. Parks

or Julian, they treated her very well.

Annalise had been watching over Samuel from his room.

At this moment, when she heard Bethany calling out to her outside, Samuel was also affected and could not sleep

well.

She immediately got up and closed the door.

Seeing Annalise, Bethany immediately knelt on the ground and crawled over. “Anna, Anna, it’s me, Aunt Bethany. I

beg you. Please help Abbie. The Barton family don’t have many among us. Your mother only gave birth to you, and

Uncle Kent only gave birth to Abbie. You girls should have supported each other in the first place. Please, plead for

Abbie’s sake.”

“If you do something wrong, you should suffer the consequences,” Annalise said calmly.

Since Abigail could even poison an old man, what right did she have to plead?

Annalise couldn’t believe that Bethany had the gall to say that the girls should have supported each other. “Anna,

you can’t be so heartless. Your mother passed away early. If we hadn’t raised you, you wouldn’t be alive today…

“Thank you then!” Annalise’s tone was filled with sarcasm.

She was grateful for her mother’s foresight and wrote in the contract that she had to grow up to be an adult, for

Kent to get 30 percent of the Moonlight Group shares

Otherwise, she would probably die as soon as her mother passed away.

“Anna, that’s not how you thank me. Let’s do something practical…”

Outside, sirens wailed.

Bethany shrank back and immediately looked at the door.

A few police officers came in. Julian asked them to take Bethany away. Bethany was an accomplice to Samuel’s

murder. He asked the police to interrogate her properly.

Kent rushed over and finally arrived at Jadeborough when it was dark.

He had already contacted the lawyer.

Before he could eat, he rushed to the police station with his lawyer. They had to meet Abigail and ask about the

specific situation.

The lawyer was renowned in Jadeborough and hired by Kent, coming from a famous law firm.

Along the way, the lawyer talked a lot to Kent and asked about a lot of things.

He asked Kent many core questions, including what was the situation of the target of the attempt? Were they dead?

Were they injured? Were there irreversible injuries on their bodies?

Kent did not know much about the specific situation. They only knew that Abigail was now locked up and was

charged with several crimes. In addition, Layla was the mastermind. Another important piece of information was

that Samuel was not dead.

When the lawyer heard this information, he confidently told Kent that they had a high chance of winning this.

lawsuit. It was absolutely impossible for the defendant to be convicted with a life sentence.

He was confident that he could get Abigail a sentence within two years at most, and that she would be released

soon if they used further connections to reduce the sentence.

Kent heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. He thanked the lawyer repeatedly. “Thank you, thank you, Mr.

Janus!”

The two of them went to see Abigail, but they could not see her at all.

The lawyer showed his papers and identified himself as the one representing Abigail, yet he still didn’t get to

see her

During the period of lockdown, she was not allowed to see anyone.

The lawyer had no choice but to tell Kent that he would see them when the lockdown was lifted. It should be

soon.

“Alright, alright. Mr. Janus, I’ll treat you to a meal. Let’s talk while we eat.” Kent treated the lawyer to a meal.

The two of them chatted very well. Kent was also full of confidence.

He secretly decided that after this matter was over, he would quickly get Abbie and Alexander to divorce. They

could no longer afford to stay at a cutthroat place like Jadeborough anymore.

The next day, Kent called Mr. Janus, getting ready for the lawyer to meet Abigail again.

Mr. Janus stammered and told Kent that he was too busy to take his case.

Since they had not signed the contract, Kent had to find someone else.

Kent was furious and wanted to retort, but Mr. Janus had already quickly hung up.

Kent had no choice but to contact another lawyer.

He looked for many lawyers in a row, but they all said that they had been too busy recently and did not have

time to for a new lawsuit.

It wasn’t until Kent found a lawyer he knew but wasn’t very famous that the lawyer told him that it was impossible

for anyone in Jadeborough to represent them in this case.

Kent was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. “The Parks family is too damn much! Don’t you lawyers

have any integrity at all? So what if you take the case? Can the Parks family really condemn your law firm?”

An acquaintance told Kent that it was not that the Parks family throwing their weight around, but that the plaintiff’s

lawyer was Silvester Chanon, known for his ruthlessness, so much so that no lawyer could win against him.

Moreover, the Parks family had evidence.

Lawyers had to protect their reputations, and no one was willing to provoke a madman like Silvester Chanon.
