    Chapter 686


    “What are you saying? I thought we agreed that we’d be friends for life. From now on, there’s no need


    for you to hide things from me. I don’t want to be a friend who gets updates about you from the news


    rather than from you in person,” said Lisa.


    “Got it,” answered Serenity, who was on the brink of tearing up.


    Lisa had always been like this. Once you were chosen as a friend, she would be loyal to the end.


    The next day, when they met up, Lisa got to know the details of Serenity’s wrongful conviction,


    including how Yuri was the mastermind behind this.


    “I never thought that someone could frame another person just because they didn’t want to be


    implicated,” said Lisa with a gasp. “But I’m thankful that you’ve finally proven your Innocence. So, what


    are you going to do next?”


    “I haven’t thought about it yet.”


    Serenity looked forward to the next chapter in her life, but she still hesitated.


    “Are you going back to being an attorney?” asked Lisa.


    Serenity smiled wryly. “I’ve been out of the profession for four years now, I don’t know if I can start all


    over again. At this point, I can’t even recall thews that I used to be so familiar with.”

    “It’ll be a real pity if you don’t be an attorney. Since there’s no rush for you to find a new job, you


    can take your time and familiarize yourself with thew! I have faith in you!” said Lisa confidently.


    Truth be told, she had always admired Serenity’s learning capacity.


    Serenity pondered for a moment and responded, “Yeah, I’ll familiarize myself with it first. After all, you’ll


    never know unless you’ve tried it.”


    Her license to practice as awyer was finally restored, so there was all the more reason to cherish the


    opportunity.


    “Come to the bookstore with meter, I’d like to buy thetestw journals,” said Serenity.


    “Sure!”


    Now that her friend was getting her act together, it went without saying that she had to give her full


    support.


    When they arrived at the bookstore, Serenity immediately headed for the section with legal publications


    and started browsing through the books. Speaking of books, it had been a while since she hadst


    come to this store. Before she went to prison, she was a frequent customer here. She woulde here


    once or twice a month, not only forw journals but also for magazines.


    Even though e–books had be the norm nowadays, she still preferred the feeling of a physical


    book and jotting down annotations by hand.


    Being able toe here today made Serenity overwhelmed with emotions.


    Looking at the endlessw journals, Lisa felt a little bored. After all, she hadn’t learned this back in


    university.


    “I’ll head over to the magazine section. After you’ve chosen your books, you know where to find me.”


    “Okay.”


    Lisa hastily made her way to the magazine rack and flipped through magazines that wrote about her


    favorite celebrity while Serenity continued picking her books.


    Suddenly, a voice sounded, “Are you… Serenity Lewis?”


    Startled, Serenity turned to look at the person who had called out to her. He seemed to be a stranger,


    about 25 or 26 years old, and he was dressed casually.


    After confirming that he was talking to Serenity, he said, “You must be Serenity! I saw your picture on


    the inte when Jenny Hall issued a public apology to you. Why didn’t you respond to her apology? Is


    it that difficult to say something? What’s more, Jenny only said those things because of the court’s


    wrongful decision. In fact, I feel she doesn’t have to apologize to you, but she’s just too kind…”
