Felton turned his head to look at Vanessa, "Did Saul say anything to you when he left?"
Vanessa's eyes were red as she spoke, "Saul asked me to get him a lawyer."
"A lawyer?" Felton furrowed his brow, then said, "Isn't that Sallie a lawyer? Call Sallie, now."
It was good to have connections in the family.
With Sallie on the case, Saul was sure to be fine.
Hearing this, Vanessa's eyes reddened even more, "Sallie's been..."
"Where did she go?" Felton asked, puzzled.
Vanessa recounted the events, "Elaine didn't want to worry you, so she didn't let us tell you. Hancock got fired from the hospital, and they had to sell their mansion, and even their cars are mortgaged now."
When it rains, it pours.
Felton's face went pale in an instant.
He wasn't sad about Elaine's family's sudden misfortune, and he was worried that without Sallie's help, Saul wouldn't make it out.
"Then get Saul the best lawyer. And grease some palms if you have to. Don't worry about the money, if we're short, we can sell the house."
Ther weren't that wealthy, but they had some savings.
After all, they got five properties in one go during the last urban redevelopment.
They lived in two and rented out the other three.
Those three properties could sell for at least six or seven million.
Vanessa wiped her tears, "Okay. I'll do it right away." As long as Saul could come out safely, she was willing to sell not just one house, but all of them if needed.
Today was the day Carole was discharged from the hospital.
Early in the morning, her brother Nanson came bearing flowers to pick her up.
"Carole, Congrats."
Carole smiled, taking the flowers with one hand.
Anthea, trailing behind with the luggage, was grateful it was summer, and their clothes were light, so there wasn't much to carry.
