After hanging up the phone, he relayed the message to Brayden and said, "Brayden, take Jenna back with you. I'll stay here." He wanted to be there for Sylvia when she came out. He couldn't bear to leave her alone.
"How could we possibly leave?" Jenna's eyes glinted with determination. "Brayden, I don't want to go. I want to stay here."
Brayden nodded in agreement. "We won't leave. It may be cold at night, but at least there's heat inside."
"Okay," Franklin said as he looked through the glass but saw nothing inside.
Time passed slowly as they waited anxiously.
Sylvia stayed by Cody's side with two prison guards who were struggling to keep their eyes open from exhaustion.
Yadiel glanced over at Sylvia who still looked spirited despite being up all night and admired her resilience. "How does she have so much energy? Do all beautiful women have this kind of stamina?"
"I'm so tired," Kian said as he leaned towards Yadiel for support while they both dozed off.
As dawn approached, Cody slowly opened his eyes while lying on a hospital bed, feeling a throbbing headache that felt like an explosion in his head.
He stared blankly at the ceiling for a moment before realizing that his prison bed wasn't like this - it had another bunk above him... why was there only a ceiling now?
Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice say, "Cody, are you awake?"
He turned abruptly and saw Sylvia sitting next to him looking stunningly beautiful; her face caught his attention immediately causing him shock, "Sibbie? What are you doing here?"
"You're sick... very sick," Sylvia replied, looking up briefly at the IV bag, which had been refilled three times. After this IV drip was finished, Cody could recover quickly and suffer less from pain or illness.
"How could they let you come in here?" Cody asked, still surprised by her presence.
"I'll leave when the sun rises," she replied, glancing over at two nearby sleeping guards who finally succumbed to fatigue.
"Cody, listen carefully," Sylvia continued speaking softly but firmly, "We will find a way to save you and clear your name. We've found the Carson family and the Wilson family targeting you; we will also find evidence that can help prove your innocence."
"Sibbie..." Cody was shocked, "the Carson family? the Wilson family?"
He had guessed that Clark would retaliate against him, after all, he had been checking the Wilson Group.
