    "Since I need to marry a woman in this life, does it make any difference whether I do itter or earlier?

    Jennifer was quiet and obedient enough. A marriage with the Atkinson family could help the Reed Pack


    solidify its lineage. So why not?"


    He was talking business, and Grace felt a faint pang of fear as she heard this.


    It was like he did not know love at all… Even marriage could be a business to him.


    What would really matter to a person like him?


    Nothing, she supposed.


    Because he just craved power, and he’d use any means to get it.


    “Jennifer would have made a suitable luna. However, now I think it’ll be nice if I married a woman who


    is interesting to me." His eyes were fixed on her as he smiled.


    She turned away awkwardly. He spoke as if he was referring to something else.


    She told herself not to think too much about it. He and she were people of two worlds. They would


    never be in the same circles. Soon, after giving him the gloves, surely he and she would never see


    each other again.


    "Well... I''ll get you your gloves." She hurried around him to get the gloves.


    "No hurry." He took her arm, slowly bent down, and looked at her. "Sis, you haven''t answered my


    question from earlier. Are you trying to reverse the verdict?"


    Of course, she was! If she did not reverse the verdict, it meant that she would have to bear this crime


    and could not hold her head high for the rest of her life.


    "What about it?" she asked rhetorically.


    "If you really want to reverse the verdict, then I can help you, Sis," he said.


    She gasped. "You believe that I didn''t drive under the influence?"


    "It doesn''t matter to me whether you drove under the influence or not," he muttered. "It''s just to get your


    drunk driving conviction out of the way. To reverse the verdict, I''ll find the bestwyer I can to help you


    find a loophole in the case. That should get you out of it."


    The gleam in her eyes was reced by gloom. She understood what he meant. ording to the


    innocent until proven guilty principle, she had to find some arguable statement before she could


    reverse the verdict.


    However, that did not mean she could be vindicated.


    The innocence of the suspect would always be controversial even if the case was reversed.


    "Why? Don''t you like the idea?" He saw the change in her expression.


    "I want to get to the bottom of it. I want to know what went on during the ident. Why did the


    witnesses all say I was drunk? What happened to the physical evidence?"


    This series of questions had been buried deep in her heart over the years.


    Maybe she couldn’t reim her ce in a pack, but she still had the rest of her life ahead of her, and it


    was hard to be judged constantly.


    If she did not get it straight, she would have to bear the crime forever. In the hearts of others, she was


    still a criminal.


    His face gradually darkened. A cold look seemed to appear in his deep, ck eyes. "Is it that important


    for you to know the truth?"
