"Vera!" Miranda responded.
Afterwards, Vera could no longer hold herself together and ran towards Miranda in tears, hugging her and saying sorry over and over again.
She really knew she was wrong to blindly trust someone who wouldn't even show her face and to take the blame for her.
Yet what did she get in the end?
She got nothing, not only did she spend six months in jail for nothing, the man didn't even help her family pay their debts like she said she would.
So, her six months in jail were completely wasted, and more than that, she made her mother so sad that she had been trying to look for someone to save her.
Even her brother was bullied by those kids at school.
She was really wrong, so wrong!
"I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry." Vera lay on Miranda's knee, crying tears of sadness, self-recrimination and guilt.
It was true that Miranda was angry with her, but the reason her daughter was to pay off the family's debts.
So no matter how angry or annoyed Miranda was, she would not push her daughter away, let alone give up on her.
Otherwise she would not have struggled to find a way to get her out.
Violet leaned against the side of the car, just quietly watching the mother and daughter hugging each other, without going up to disturb them.
It was only after a long time that Miranda thought of Violet, and only then did she gently pat Vera's shoulder, signaling for her to stop crying and get up.
Vera wiped her tears and stood up from the floor.
Miranda took her hand, "Vera, go, go over with me to meet Mrs. Murphy."
Vera gave a nod.
They came to Violet, Miranda pushed Vera to Violet, "Vera, say thanks to Mrs. Murphy."
Vera looked at Violet and bent down and bowed deeply towards Violet, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Murphy, I shouldn't have taken the blame for someone in the first place, I'm really sorry, and thank you for not giving up on me and keeping arresting Ivy to save me out, I really appreciate it!"
She had already heard from the prison guards that Ivy had been caught and had given an account of all her crimes.
Otherwise, she couldn't really get out so soon.
Violet looked at Vera, helped her up, just said: "Since you are out, from now on, take good care of Miranda, do not do similar things just because of the temptation of others, especially when you have not even met the person. The other party has not even given you a deposit, but you foolishly agreed to take the blame for her, in the end, you got nothing but had spent six months in jail."
Vera was blushed by Violet's words.
She looked at her mother who had gray hair and nodded heavily, "Don't worry, Mrs. Murphy, I know what to do. After this lesson, I won't be as innocent and foolish as I was before to easily trust others, I will take good care of my mother in the future, do some business with her and raise my brother."
"Good." Violet nodded.
She then raised her wrist and looked at her watch, "It's late, I'll see you back first, I have other things to do after that."
"Thank you, Mrs. Murphy." Miranda and her daughter hurriedly thanked her.
Violet opened the car door and, together with Vera, helped Miranda get into the car and then drove away from the prison.
On the way, Violet talked a lot to Vera.
Vera also asked about Ivy's current situation.
