Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 712

However, when she noticed Sean curled up in a ball on the single bed, Nadine couldn't help but wonder if she'd made the wrong choice. It was just an apology. If she'd just apologized, the other party would let them go, and Sean could return home to sleep in a warm, soft bed instead of being uncomfortable here.

The female officer, who had stayed by Nadine and Sean's side, noticed her troubled expression and decided to help.

"Ms. Scott, you're allowed to contact someone you trust to come visit you or ask them to arrange for a lawyer. In your case, I'd suggest contacting someone influential, someone who could help you gain an advantage over the other party. That would be in your best interest."

Nadine was aware that the female officer meant well, so she sincerely said, "Thank you. But my phone was taken, so I can't make any calls."

The officer pointed to a small room across the hallway. "There's a landline there. Once you've decided who to call, you can go ahead and use it. However, you have to keep it under five minutes."

Nadine thanked her again and headed to the small room without a second thought. Sebastian had gone back to Chillnada for the New Year and wouldn't be back in Janctera City until after the holidays. She figured he was probably celebrating with his family at that moment.

Nadine didn't want to disturb him, so she decided to call Avery instead. Avery had few influential friends in Janctera City besides Alex. Hence, when she picked up Nadine's call in the middle of the night, she immediately reached out to him, hoping he'd help.

Alex was the kind who needed complete silence while he was asleep. If he was woken up, he wouldn't be able to fall back asleep until morning. After grumbling through the call, he gave Avery Brad's number.

"She's Brad's wife. Who could possibly hold more power than him in this city? Why is she coming to me instead of Brad? I'm not keen on the idea of rescuing someone else's wife in the middle of the night!"
