In My Desperate Time

Chapter 576: This Is Only the Beginning

Why should I be charged with such a serious crime which I didn't commit?

I can't afford to waste my time in jail.

Even if I can endure it, Penelope can't. Moreover, who knows what will happen between Frances and me in those years?

I can't be behind bars at this critical juncture.

"Wait a bit longer. Perhaps the police will have new evidence," I say to the lawyer with a wry smile.

"Any new evidence will be against you. I've said everything I need to say. You should think about whether to plead guilty. I'll bail you out."

At that, he walks out.

Soon, he returns.
