Chapter 481

At the policeman’s agreement, Rayna called her assistant. “Ella, contact the best lawyer in Norwal City and ask him to come to the station to meet me.”

“Ms. Garland, are you okay?” Ella asked worriedly.

“I’m fine. I’ve only been charged with the attempted murder of a pregnant woman,” Rayna answered indifferently. “I might not be able to return to the office for a while. You have to keep a close eye on the new product. Also, call Newfirm Media and tell them to look for a stylist named Giselle Brent. Ask her to testify for me, then call Faymon Group and ask Mr. Tylinski to inform Mr. Faymon about my current situation.”

Even if Vivi had evidence of her involvement, as long as she had Curtis’ and Giselle’s statements, she would not be found guilty of the attempted murder.

Ella immediately responded, “Got it. I’ll look for a lawyer right now!”

After ending the call, Rayna realized her palms were damp with cold sweat.

She had wronged Vivi and made her lose her baby.

She could provide any compensation as an apology to Vivi, but she also had to defend her rights.

If she lost the case and the news of her being pregnant and getting released on bail spread, everything would be over.

As the date of the trial was not set yet, Rayna had to stay in the holding cell with other women who were charged with various crimes and had yet to be convicted.

The holding cell was not spacious, but there were eight women in the small space. In fact, there was even one who was arrested drunk and had just vomited in a corner.

The clashing blend of perfume and pungency made Rayna’s stomach churn.

One of the women came over to ask why Rayna was in the holding cell, but Rayna only answered half-heartedly. When that woman could not get any other responses from Rayna, she flitted to another woman to chat away instead.

One night passed, and the policeman who had interrogated Rayna before came to take Rayna out of the holding cell.

Shortly after, Rayna was brought to a desk.

When she noticed a man in a suit sitting by the table and the bag on the desk, she guessed he was the lawyer Ella had hired.

“Ms. Garland”—the lawyer stood up to shake hands with her—”I am your defense attorney, and I will do my best to help you. Please tell me everything that happened and please don’t hide anything from me.”
