Ysabelle retired to her room for a shower after dinner and left Sophie and Tristan in the living room.

He made her feel very safe, as if he would be able to solve all her problems no matter what happened.

As the witness, Ysabelle accompanied Sophie to court on the day of the trial.

Upon arriving outside the court, they saw Queenie and her uncle.

“They’re the ones who have assaulted me, Uncle Jason. You must avenge me.”
