Chapter 43 Just Throw It Away

“What’s up? Go ahead,“Helens said, looking up from her paperwork

“Given the current situation, what are Yvette’s chances of winning this case?” Whitney asked…

Helena pamed, considering carefully. “With no physical evidence and no witnesses, things don’t look good for Yvette. That said, it’s not a garanteed. If we lour the first trial, we can appeal and keep searching for new evidence. But that would take a lot of time

Whitney tell a sinking feeling in her chest.

If the case dragged on in a year or more, Yelle’s studio might not mavive.

Alter a moment of silence, Helena asked, is something going on?”

Whinney supped out of her thoughts. “The mist summons arrived”

“Already?” Helena sounded surprised. It had only been a few days. Something fell off. “Rachel seems to be in an awful hurry like the really hat it out for Yvette. Do they have some kind of deep–seated grudge?”

Whitney hadn’t told Helena about the attak between Damian and Rachel, so Helena had no idea that Rachel’s real target was Whitney, not Yvette

It she told Helena, she was worried about how disappointed she might be in her own brother.

Whitney decided to keep it to herself. It was not to protect Damian’s image but because she didn’t want Helena to feel on between her and her brother.

For the same reason, the had also asked Yvette not to tell Helena about it.

Before they ended the call, Helena encouraged her not to lose hope, promising to do thing she could. “You never know–there might still be a breakthrough,” she said.

When Whitney returned to the hospital ward, Thomas had already left.
