Kyla smiled bitterly. “She means as much to me as Lina does to you. Without her, perhaps Nelson and I wouldn’t be here today!”
Grace understood how important that person was to Kyla.
Kyla said, “Jacqueline Bowman says my friend is miserable now. She’s living like a lunatic, being abused and living a life worse than death. If what Jacqueline Bowman said is true, I need to find her as soon as possible! Grace, you know the law better than I do. I just want to know what the chances are that she’ll get probation?”
Grace replied, “Ten percent. With the lawyer representing the Weiss family in this case, you’ll only get a ten percent chance of winning even if you issue a memorandum of understanding without Martin Weiss. I can help you ask my mentor to fight this case. After all, the evidence is solid!”
Kyla’s heart sank.
After a pause, Grace continued saying, “Unless the Weiss family doesn’t want to pursue Jacqueline Bowman too and the Weiss family’s lawyer pins all the blame on Mr. Lambert. In that case, Jacqueline Bowman might get a lighter sentence.”
Kyla only felt her heart sinking more and more.
Grace said, “Kyla, if you want to find out your friend’s whereabouts, we can think of other ways to track her down. We can investigate the people Jacqueline Bowman has been in contact with to see if there are any clues.”
Kyla replied in acknowledgment.
However, she knew full well that it might take a long time to find any clues. Even if they did find out Amber Mitchell’s whereabouts, it would take a long time.
Unless… she went to Martin Weiss to get him to issue a memorandum of understanding and get the lawyer not to go against Jacqueline Bowman.
However, how could she ask Martin Weiss this in their present state? Kyla felt horrible at the thought of it.
In the evening, Grace told Jason about Kyla.
“Jay, why don’t you get someone to look into Jacqueline Bowman’s past contacts and see if there’s anything special?
Perhaps we can get some clues about Kyla’s friend?” asked Grace.
“Do you want to help Kyla find her friend?” asked Jason.
Grace said, “Yeah, Kyla is my friend, and I want to help her, of course. I don’t want to see Jacqueline Bowman threaten Kyla. She nearly killed the baby Kyla is carrying and almost got Kyla raped. Such a person shouldn’t be placed on probation and released!”
“We don’t have to go through so much trouble if we want to find out where Kyla’s friend is. We just need to make Jacqueline Bowman talk,” said Jason.
Grace blinked in confusion.
“Make her suffer a little and she’ll talk. People like Jacqueline Bowman probably can’t handle much suffering,” said Jason.
Grace instantly got it!
The suffering Jason mentioned was not simple suffering but torture.
“Jacqueline Bowman is currently in the detention center!”
reminded Grace.
“So what? I can get someone to do it if you want,” he said nonchalantly.
“But… it’s against the law,” she said.
He gazed at her, understanding her respect for the law. Otherwise, she would not have chosen to become a lawyer!
After being with her, he had also put away his dark ways and changed his principles of doing things.
“Grace, I’m willing to do anything you want. If you want me to be a law-abiding person, I’m willing to comply, but if I have to use all means to fulfill your requests, then… I can break the law for you too. To me, you are my law,” he murmured.
A law he was willing to comply with.
Grace’s eyes suddenly warmed up. She felt like tears were about to pour out of her eyes. “Jay, my biggest wish is for you to be okay! If what I want requires you to do something you shouldn’t do, I’d rather not want it.”
She said as she took his hands gently, “I don’t want you to get too much blood on your hands.”
His lashes quivered as he looked down at the hands she was holding. “But I’m willing to protect you and the children regardless of how much blood there’ll be on my hands.”
She choked emotionally for a while before drawing his hands to her lips and kissing them gently.
w The silly man loved her with all his life! All she could do in return was to love him and protect him with all she had…
“Jay, I love you!” Grace looked up, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed Jason on the lips.
He trembled slightly and gently returned her kiss…
‘Grace, do you know how glad I am that you love me?
‘Grace, do you know that as long as I can have you, I’ll be full of joy even if I go to hell?’
‘Grace, I’ll never let you go again…’
The kiss lasted an unknown amount of time.
“Grace, love me like this forever…” His hoarse voice was full of longing.
‘Love me… till the end of time… Forever and always…’
Kyla waited anxiously for the results of Grace’s investigation.
However, they could not find anything on Amber Mitchell after several days even though they had looked into Jacqueline Bowman’s acquaintances and the places she frequently visited.
