Prev Chapter Next Chapter

In the prison, Anna emerged from behind the remand prison’s door dressed as a prisoner. Joshua had
been waiting for her for a long time. He was heartbroken, however, when he saw Anna’s exhausted
expression and realized she was pretending to be calm.

Anna sat in front of him and smiled as she teased him, “As a lawyer, you should have seen a lot of
situations like this. Why are you still so surprised?’’

“Are you still in the mood to laugh? It seems Wayne doesn’t even have to worry about you that much.”
As he said this, Joshua snapped back to reality and regained his composure.

“You’ve been here several times, so | know he’s worried about me,” Anna explained.

“Because you are detained, only your lawyer may visit you,” Joshua immediately said, and he
misinterpreted Anna’s meaning.

Anna waved her hand and said, “I didn’t mean that. Have you become as overly stressed as Nancy is?
Besides, even if they could come to see me, | wouldn’t welcome them. I don’t want Wayne to see me
like this right now. Go ahead. What do you want to tell me now?” she said, straightening up.

Joshua paused for a moment before replying, “Wayne wanted to tell you that he has got many people
to protect Isabella and Gary. So far, no one has taken any action against them. He wanted you to put
your mind at ease because he was sure Bill said that just to provoke you.”

Upon hearing his words, Anna felt alittle better, She sadly nodded, 488 What If! Drop the Case? But Bill
knew that Gary was staying at Isabella’s. That means he didn’t have the chance to tell Ada about it.”

“I think so, too,” Joshua said, nodding. He thought for a while and said, “There’s one more thing. Your
friends are all worried about you right now, and they’re all trying to get you out. Last night, Karl’s wife



scolded Wayne for quite some time, questioning why he didn’t get you out. Karl also sought
connections and suggested that you can apply for parole if you want to.”

Anna blinked because she found the scene amusing when she imagined Peace shouting at Wayne.
She knew Peace would not let Karl off the hook either.

Seeing no reaction from Anna, Joshua said, “Karl kept asking me to persuade you to come out early
before | arrived. He appeared to be more tired than you are right now.”

Anna could tell he was in a pickle at the time. Then, she asked, “What’s new with Ryan?”

“Yesterday, Ryan discovered that Ada had hired someone to spy on you. For the time being, he is still
following this person. He hoped you’ll stay a few more days so he could catch them.”

“Then tell Karl to hold off alittle longer,” Anna said, nodding.

As he remembered Kar”s tortured and pained face, Joshua became worried. “All right, that’s all we can
do,” he said after a brief pause.

In the late afternoon, Joshua left the remand prison. And the setting sun cast a golden light on the road.
Joshua walked with his back to the sunset, his shadow following him. He walked faster because the
evening breeze made him feel chilly.

Itwas almost winter, and the trees were bare, with only a few leaves remaining. As he walked by, the
colored lights on the trees lit up, making 488 What If | Drop the Case?

the road beautiful. Joshua had just arrived at the parking lot when he noticed two people emerging from
behind a wall. They startled him and caused him to take a step back.

“Excuse me, are you Mrs. Wright’s lawyer?”



The woman in front of him was dressed in a long skirt and trench coat, and she seemed to have been
waiting for a long time. She had been shivering and appeared to feel very cold.

Joshua looked at her and the woman in the down jacket behind her and became suspicious.

The woman further away was dressed in a medical mask and a thick sweater. After noticing he
appeared defensive, she approached Joshua, removed the mask, and said, “I’m Joanna, and I’ve come
to see Mrs. Wright. The police told me that she could only meet with her lawyer while detained and that
you happened to be in this afternoon. So, | just waited here for you.”

Joshua paused for a moment. He remembered Joanna because he had read the information about the
people involved in this case. “Let’s meet in the cafe.” He nodded and extended his hand to point to his
car.

Ten minutes later, they entered a nearby cafe. While Joanna and Joshua sat by the window, Irene sat
at the bar with her coffee, chatting with a hot guy she had just met. It was getting dark, and each had a
steaming cup of coffee in front of them.

Joanna’s stomach hurt because she was tired. She didn’t want to drink coffee, so she cupped her
hands around the cup to keep her hands warm.

“|heard you were in critical condition. It’s difficult for you to leave the hospital, right?” Joshua said. He
noticed Joanna didn’t look well and could

tell she wanted to say something the whole time. 488 What If | Drop the Case?

“Yes,” Joanna didn’t deny it either but instead tried to smile.

“Do you have anything to say to me?” Joshua asked.



Joanna tightened her grip on her cup and frowned. She had waited in the freezing wind for two hours
just to meet the person involved in the accident. But she wasn’t sure what she was going to say.

“If the court rules that Mrs. Wright murdered someone, the final result…”She abruptly came to a halt at
this point. She then realized her question was a little abrupt, so she quickly explained, “Don’t get me
wrong, what | mean is…”

“Bill brought the dagger, which is my only strong evidence so far. As a result, | can say that Anna
committed manslaughter or acted in self defense. However, once the murder charge is established, she
will also face trouble in the future.” Joshua interrupted her with a sip of his coffee. “I don’t know if this is
good news for you, but I heard you and Bill are very close,” he said, giving her a look.

With an embarrassed expression, Joanna placed her hands on her knees and tightened her grip on her
pants. “So what if I don’t hold her accountable?” she asked.

Joshua hadn’t expected Joanna to say anything like that, so he had no idea what she was thinking.
“This is a public criminal case that is handled by the judiciary. You cannot resolve this issue privately.”
He said it solemnly.

Joanna frowned. She abruptly stood up and said, “I see. Thank you.” She then left the cafe with Irene.
