Winona hung up the phone.
That evening, when Stefan returned, he didn't bring up Karina's situation at all.
Winona had no desire to discuss it either, choosing to act as if she didn't know Karina was sitting in a holding cell.
The next day at noon, as Winona walked out of the building for lunch, she spotted Giselle's car parked by the entrance.
Seeing Winona, Giselle stepped out of the vehicle.
Winona found it odd that Giselle's nose was heavily bandaged.
Giselle marched over, seething with rage. "Winona Jowett! Did you order your idiotic assistant to attack me?"
She had just been minding her own business, having a drink at the bar, when that lunatic suddenly smashed a bottle right into her face.
Her nose was fractured, and she was going to need reconstructive surgery. She was absolutely livid.
Thankfully, when Sylvan Scully found out, he immediately dispatched his legal team to sue the crazy woman, making sure she stayed locked up.
She only found out today that the woman worked at Jericho Harper's lab as Winona's assistant.
So, Winona must have ordered the hit, right?
Initially confused, Winona quickly caught the keyword. "The person Karina assaulted was you?"
Blinded by anger, Giselle hadn't bothered to find out who Karina actually was, assuming she was just a lowly assistant. She sneered arrogantly, "Winona, since you had the guts to send your lackey after me, I'll make sure she rots in a cell for years! Her life is ruined, and it's all your fault!"
Winona couldn't understand why Karina would attack Giselle out of nowhere.
Ignoring Giselle's rant, she went straight to the police station to see Karina.
Having been detained for three days, Karina looked haggard and miserable.
Back in the Capital, she used to pull stupid stunts all the time whenever she lost her temper. But with the Goddard and Shepherd families protecting her, no one ever dared to lay a finger on her.
Who would have thought that coming to Riverton would land her in jail every other week?
This time was the worst. Even the lawyer her father hired couldn't bail her out.
