Chapter 496

When Jean entered the visiting room, Gigi was already sitting there.She seemed to have lost weight, although Jean had not seen her for only a few days.

Nonetheless, her eyes looked clear and spirited.She wore a smile at once when she saw Jean and even waved at her.

However, when Gigi saw Edgar, who followed behind Jean, she was startled for a moment and lowered her head in silence.

Jean took up the phone and knocked on the glass panel, but there was still no response from Gigi.

With his eyes darkened, Edgar stood up and said, "I shall head out first."

After he walked out, Gigi lifted her head slowly, but the anticipation and excitement when she first saw Jean faded.

In contrast, the dejection in her eyes was unconcealable.

"I brought some stuff for you.The officers will pass them to you after checking."

Jean uttered while gazing at Gigi earnestly.

Gigi cast her eyes down for a moment and sneered.

"I know why you came to visit me.The case will be brought to court soon; you and the lawyers are worried I'll retract my testimony.Am I right?"

After saying that, Gigi put down the phone and left without giving Jean a chance to speak.Her yelling penetrated the glass panel.

"I thought you trusted me, but you're no different from them!"

"No…”

Gigi closed the door with a loud bang and refused to see anyone thereafter, even the lawyers.

Jean took a deep breath and trod out from the visiting room.

Edgar was waiting in the corridor, and he could guess what had happened when he saw Jean's sullen look.

"She just needs more time to think things through."

Edgar croaked.

Jean shook her head.
