Lucy analyzed to Richard that it was not feasible for him to bear the blame for Amy. If he did it, the Carter family would lose head and others would take the chance to deal with them.
"Then what should I do? I can't let her go to jail. She has been in jail for so long, but I can do nothing." Richard was going crazy. Amy suffered in jail, but he could only watch and could not do anything outside.
"There is one thing we can do. We can find the best lawyer for Amy to try to mitigate her guilt. We only have more than half a month. It's too late. Besides, the other party must be cautious at this time. It will be difficult for us to find clues." Lucy said to Richard.
"Then you mean we should not do anything else now. After Amy goes to jail and the other party lets her guard down, we can continue to investigate?" Richard calmed down a bit at this time.
"Yes. This is the only way. If we continue to investigate now, we may alert her. It is the worst choice that we come to investigate now." Lucy looked at Richard. Her friend really loved Amy and was even willing to die for Amy.
Lucy remembered that she had not seen Kingsley for a long time. She had been secretly in love with Kingsley for a long time, but Kingsley did not like her at all. Lucy thought of this and felt a little upset.
"Well, I know what you mean. I will arrange it. You should also stop investigating. Don't be exposed." Richard completely calmed down now. He had to adjust his plan.
Amy was in prison. The trial had not started. With Richard's background, no one embarrassed her. Although the environment was not very good, it was not dirty and she could be full.
"Amy, tell me more details." The captain came to Amy. He wanted to know more about what happened.
"OK." Amy then the repeated the entire incident again.
"That's all. I have no idea why I had poison in my hand. My hand was touched by Allison, as you saw in the video." Amy said to the captain.
"But Allison touched your hand after Jacob drank the water. That is to say, Jacob's water had been poisoned. Only you had touched Jacob's cup before. So, everything is against you. Mr. Carter is finding more evidence for you. But I guess it may be useless. That's really hard to do." After the captain listened, he really couldn't figure out what was going on.
Not only the captain could not figure out what was going on, but even Richard couldn't think of when it was poisoned. From that video, it was indeed Amy who touched Jacob's cup.
"Amy, we haven't found strong evidence. But I will try my best to think of another way. I am sorry that you will suffer." Richard felt as if a knife were piercing his heart while looking at Amy's haggard face.
"It's okay. I don't have anything to do right now. They're polite to me here and don't embarrass me." Amy heard from the captain that Richard had been busy for her, and felt that was enough.
Richard had advised her not to meet Allison, but she hadn't listened. That was why she ended up in such a situation.
