She finished speaking and was about to take action. These scumbags were simply too outrageous.
Franklin grabbed her arm and raised his own phone. "The old Mr. Bennett, yes, we're at the prison. Can you help us out?"
As he spoke, he handed the phone over to the sheriff. "It's for you."
The sheriff was taken aback for a moment, then took the phone and said, "The old Mr. Bennett? Hello, hello. Yes... Okay, okay. I'll let her in right away. Alright, alright..."
After hanging up the phone, the sheriff put on a gloomy look, as if he had been invisibly slapped hard several times.
Now he was really in a dilemma.
Previously, he had to respect Mrs. Ritter's order to torment Cody.
Just after he did that, the Bennett family instructed him to take good care of Cody.
He didn't how to make a win-win choice!
Well, he might as well focus on making Cody receive medical treatment, because he could not afford to offend either the Ritter family or the Bennett family.
Then he forced a smile, "Dr. Andrews, please come this way. If I had known you saved the old Mr. Bennett, I would have let you in earlier."
"I remember you. You really are a good sheriff," Sylvia mocked while following the sheriff into the prison.
The sheriff's current concern was that if Sylvia discovered Cody's condition, especially the whip marks on his body, what would happen then...
Getting a reputation for mistreating prisoners was something he could not afford to bear.
These prisoners had not been convicted yet.
They were not considered real criminals yet.
The sheriff was extremely anxious and uneasy at those thoughts.
However, he didn't show his uneasiness and instead personally brought Sylvia to Cody.
He didn't go anywhere and kept a close eye on all of Sylvia's actions.
Sylvia squatted in front of Cody, there were no inspection tools here, so she could only take his pulse.
As soon as her fair and slender fingers touched the man's pulse, she was slightly taken aback.
His body temperature was so hot.
He had a high fever as high as 105 degrees.
