Chapter 571: I''m Willing to Do Anything


    I don''t have awyer to bail me out, and I refuse to speak, so the police can only detain me.


    In the evening, Mindy finally finds awyer for me and offers to bail me out.


    Thewyer is of Chinese descent. I feel more relieved to see another Chinese other than myself.


    I fill thewyer in, and his frown grows.


    I understand it''s bad for me.


    However, what can I do?


    I don''t even know why Hilda did that.


    If she wants to deal with me, she should have made a move long ago, and she doesn''t need to wait


    until now.


    Moreover, she would have done more than to send me to prison.


    From what I know about her, she would want me to die a slow and painful death.


    After listening to my story, thewyer looks at me seriously and says, "It doesn''t look good for you.


    First, this man came home with you. Second, you drugged him. Third, he hasn''t been home for three


    days since he entered your house but has been in the refrigerator this whole time. Who would believe


    you when you say you never discovered a man in your refrigerator during that period of time?"


    I know thewyer is right.


    That man is dead. Murder is a felony. Even if it''s manughter, I will be behind bars for at least ten


    years.


    I don''t have ten years to waste, because I don''t know what will be of Frances and me after that.


    I also don''t know if Penelope has ten years left.

    "Is there really no other way?" I whisper to thewyer, almost in despair.


    "In the United States, these things can be settled privately. If that woman is willing to let you off the


    hook, you''ll be fine."


    To let me off the hook? I remember the look in her eyes when she wanted to kill me and shake my


    head helplessly.


    How is that possible?


    I can tell she really loves that man. How can she not hold me responsible?


    I''d better stop daydreaming.


    "That''s impossible. She must hate me so much that she wishes she can shoot me. How can she let me


    off?" I say with a bitter smile.


    "How can you know that before you try? Anyway, Mr. David said I must get you out of this mess. So, no


    matter how hard it is, we must try. It will be better if we can solve this with money."


    I can only nod.


    He doesn''t want me to go to jail, and I would hate that even more.


    "I understand. I will do as you say. As long as I can be free, I''m willing to do anything."


    "Great, it''ll be much easier. I''ll bail you out first."


    Very quickly, the paper work is done.


    As soon as I leave the police station, I do what thewyer told me and go to the woman''s house.


    I also bring thewyer with me.


    When the woman and I have trouble understanding each other, he can be of help.


    The day when I went to Whitney''s house to ask for her forgiveness pops into my head.


    That day almost became my nightmare.


    Standing at the door, I swallow nervously.


    Thewyer doesn''t know my past and urges me to hurry with his eyes.


    I reach out and knock on the door.


    Soon, someone opens it.


    However, when I see who it is, I can''t help but take two steps back.
