Chapter 256 She Will Be Jailed
“Geraldine isn’t young anymore. How could she be so careless? I think this will be a good lesson for her.”
“Mom, Geraldine is my only daughter! If she goes to jail, how will I live?”
Elizabeth wasn’t moved by that. “She’s already an adult and has to face the consequences of
her actions.”
Titus hadn’t expected that Elizabeth would be so stubborn. “Mom, if anything happens to Geraldine, then I won’t live either. If you want to lose a son at your old age, then that’s your
choice.”
After tossing these words at her, Titus stormed out angrily.
Elizabeth in resignation.
In the end, she had no choice but to look for Benjamin. “Benjamin, could you talk to Grace about this? She has a soft heart. Perhaps you could discuss if there’s any way to settle this?”
Benjamin had already changed into a new suit. His expression was cold as he looked straight ahead. “Grandma, let’s hand this matter over to the legal department and let them handle it.‘
He couldn’t bring himself to go to Grace and ask for her leniency. After all, stealing company secrets wasn’t a small thing. A piece of core data could ruin a company.
Therefore, he didn’t want to intervene in this matter.
Olivia, who was listening, thought that Benjamin had agreed to help. She stopped crying and wiped her tears away, smiling.

“Benjamin, I knew you would help! I knew you wouldn’t just ignore your cousin. Geraldine’s already been locked up for a night. You’ve got to get her out quickly!”
Benjamin smiled slightly scornfully. “Aunt Olivia, don’t be too happy. Stealing company secrets isn’t a small crime. There will be at least a three–year sentence.”
“Three years? We can’t have that!”
Olivia panicked immediately and grabbed Benjamin as if he were her lifeline.
Benjamin scoffed self–deprecatingly. “Aunt Olivia, I think you think too highly of me. Grace and I are divorced. I won’t intervene in this matter. The legal department will handle it as they see fit.”

Larry pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, looking rather awkward. “Mr. Hawkins, this might not be easy.”
Benjamin raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“When the Lewis family learned that you wanted to get Ms. Quine out, they used their connections. Now the higher–ups have made their stance clear. Unless a huge sum of bail is paid…”
Larry pressed his l*ps together and shook his head, but Benjamin understood what he meant at
once.
“How much?”
“One billion dollars.”
One billion dollars? That was daylight robbery! Benjamin’s expression darkened. One billion dollars wasn’t a huge sum for the Hawkins.
