Gena’sment instantly ignited the anger of those around her! A wave of righteous indignation swept through the crowd as they began to cheer loudly!
Despite all being prisoners, most of the individuals here had notmitted grave offenses, nor were they inherently bad people. They instinctively feltpassion for the elderly and vulnerable.
As they listened to Lady Wilson, with her gray hair and weathered face, recount her sorrowful life in a trembling voice, it was impossible for them not to empathize with her plight.
Consequently, the crowd united in denouncing the so-called ‘perpetrators’.
“How could they abandon such an elderly mother? They’re nothing but scoundrels!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
“Absolutely! They reside in a multi-million-dor vi but can’t even offer an empty room to the olddy. It’s revolting!”
“Don’t worry, ma’am. Karma has a way of catching up, and it will soon haunt your wicked daughter-inw!”
Tears streamed down Lady Wilson’s face. “Thank you for your kindness and support, truly! I never expected to find such good-hearted people here!”
Gena sighed, “Honestly, ma’am, seeing you reminds me of my poor mother, who tragically passed away after swallowing pesticide. Life is tough for the elderly, especially when they have a cruel daughter-inw!”
Lady Wilson nodded, sobbing softly. “I’ll be detained for fifteen days. I dread what will happen when I’m released. I have nowhere to go, and I might face prosecution in a few months.”
“In my opinion, ma’am, you might as well stay here in the detention center. At least we get three meals a day and a roof over our heads. Isn’t that better than living on the streets?”
A wave of disappointment and despair washed over Lady Wilson at this suggestion.<fn1b6c> Find the newest release on Find_Novel(.</fn1b6c>
Was this to be her fate? To remain in the detention center merely for food and shelter?
‘No!’ she shouted within herself. ‘Absolutely not! I am still the head of the Wilson family. If I have to spend my remaining years in a cell, it would be aplete humiliation to the honor I’ve earned throughout my life! No, I refuse to ept this! I must find a way to rise again!’
***
At that moment, a police car pulled up at the entrance of the detention center.
Two officers entered, escorting a woman with unkempt hair between them.
This woman was ine.
She was being dragged along in cold handcuffs, her eyes red from crying.
ine never anticipated that a seemingly simple act of stealing Charlie’s card wouldnd her in serious trouble.
From what she gathered from the officers, she was now facing an indefinite period of custody. A case would only be filed and prosecution initiated once the entirework of transnational crimes was unraveled and more suspects were apprehended.
Once the public prosecution began, the court would proceed with the trial, heavily reliant on the evidence collected to determine her potential sentencing.
In a panic, ine inquired about the possible length of her sentence if found guilty.
The officer informed her that the attempt to defraud the bank of $21.9 billion was arguably one of thergest fraud cases in decades. The severity of the crime was extreme; even though the transfer had failed, she could face a life sentence.
Furthermore, if they apprehended her aplices and uncovered additional evidence, she could even be facing the death penalty.
ine felt her stomach drop. She was filled with rage towards Charlie. All she wanted was to call her daughter and urge her to divorce that despicable scoundrel immediately!<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
