"Steve?! How on earth did that happen?!" Bella was in shock. If Justin hadn't been there to catch her in time, she would have lost her balance and fallen.

"Seriously?! Steven pleaded guilty to everything?!" Superintendent Donald's eyes widened as he quickly flipped through the confession letter to confirm.

"Yes, sir. It's all written here in black and white. Steven admitted to assaulting Mr. Charles and causing him injuries. He admitted to the charges and is willing to accept any punishment." This unexpected change of events came as a really nice surprise for the Iverson family.

There had been multiple groups of people questioning Steven and putting pressure on him around the clock for several days. Most people would have given in by now, but Steven was incredibly resilient. He'd rather stay locked up in the dark cell than admit to something he did not do.

Why did he admit it all of a sudden? What happened to make him change his mind?

"Bella, are you okay?" Justin noticed the color drain from Bella's face in a split second. He put his arm around her stiff waist, feeling really worried.

"Steve didn't do it. Why did he plead guilty?!" Her eyes were red with emotion as she shook her head in disbelief and sorrow. "Is he out of his mind? Can anyone just confess like that?! Is he so eager to go to jail?!"

"Yeah, how can anyone simply plead guilty?" Hunter narrowed his eyes and teased. "Steven, as a top student at Savrow University, understands this the best. Ms. Thompson, why are you interested in getting into this? What's your interest in all this fuss?"

Bella felt like her heart was stabbed, sending shockwaves of pain through her.
