Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 489 What If | Drop the Case?

In the prison, Anna emerged from behind the remand prison’s door dressed as a prisoner. Joshua had been waiting for her for a long time. He was heartbroken, however, when he saw Anna’s exhausted expression and realized she was pretending to be calm.

Anna sat in front of him and smiled as she teased him, “As a lawyer, you should have seen a lot of situations like this. Why are you still so surprised?’’

“Are you still in the mood to laugh? It seems Wayne doesn’t even have to worry about you that much.” As he said this, Joshua snapped back to reality and regained his composure.

“I think so, too,” Joshua said, nodding. He thought for a while and said, “There’s one more thing. Your friends are all worried about you right now, and they’re all trying to get you out. Last night, Karl’s wife scolded Wayne for quite some time, questioning why he didn’t get you out. Karl also sought connections and suggested that you can apply for parole if you want to.”
