A day had passed after Betty was subjected to a grueling overnight interrogation by the police. It had


    been a harsh ordeal for a sheltered young woman like her.


    Although they provided her with food and drinks, she wasn’t allowed to lie down or sleep, which left her


    with dark circles under her eyes and a disheveled appearance. Her backside ached from sitting for so


    long.


    The harsh fluorescent light above her head had nearly dried out her hair, which she had spent a lot of


    money to maintain.


    It was truly a torturous experience!


    “I didn’t. Abigail wasn’t a corporate spy. I have nothing to do with it. This is all Alyssa’s plot to frame me.


    I’m innocent…” Despite her fatigue and exhaustion, Betty continued to argue and refused to give in.


    At that moment, the door to the interrogation room opened. A confident and good-looking man in a suit


    entered with a ck suitcase in his hand.


    The man introduced himself, “Gentlemen, I am Betty Beckett’s attorney, Simon Lynch.”


    Simon Lynch… Attorney Lynch?


    Betty’s eyes brightened.


    Simon beamed at her with a reassuring look. “I need to talk with my client.”


    Betty followed Simon to another room. Her attorney was the only person she could meet with.


    “Mr. Lynch, my dad requested you for help, didn’t he?” She clutched his hand and started crying. “Save

    me! I can’t stand a minute more of this!”


    “Ms. Betty, do not worry. I am at least 80% confident in this case if I decide to ept it.” Simon had a


    gentle tone but a pair of eagle eyes.


    He advised, “But there is one condition-I need your absolute cooperation. Tell me every single detail.


    Do


    not hide a thing from me.”


    “Of course!” She nodded furiously, knowing that Simon could definitely save her, given how he had


    sessfully handled Sophia’s scandal before. So, she told him everything about the incident without


    reservation.


    Simon listened to her quietly.


    “Mr. Lynch, can’t you teach Alyssa Taylor a lesson? She’s wicked!” Betty mmed the table in anger


    and moaned, “I wouldn’t have ended up like this if not for that bitch!”


    “Ms. Betty, she is the intiff, which makes her the victim in this case. You should also be aware of her


    family’s influence,” Simon pointed out.


    A look of doubt crossed his eyes as he continued, “Our opponent is powerful. Ms. Taylor is a ruthless


    woman. Consider yourself fortunate if you get out of this unscathed. Don’t set your hopes too high.”


    She felt a twinge of indignation at being schooled. Still, she wasn’t in the position to act out, for she


    needed Simon’s help.


    “As for Abigail Grant, she’s the one using you, and she happens to have a questionable rtionship


    with the head of E! News Daily. This could work in our favor to discredit her as a witness,” Simon


    exined with a grave look while twirling his pen.


    He added, “Bryan Hanssen, the suspect, was Abigail’s lover before the incident. This is the key point,


    our


    breakthrough in this case.”


    “So, are you saying we’ll make Bryan Hanssen the fall guy?” Betty asked in a hushed tone. He gave


    her a knowing smile.


    “But… will he do it? I heard he had a falling out with Abigail.”
