Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 114

Angeline would have only gone back to River Town for Henrietta's case. Sean knew that.

"It's been resolved." Angeline forced herself to sound cheerful. "I've already spoken to the parents of those kids, and I told them that I won't write a letter of understanding."

"What time is your flight? I'll send someone to pick you up." Sean's voice left no room for discussion.

"Sir, it's a call from Mr. Lawson Senior…"

Taylor's voice sounded from the other end of the phone. Angeline didn't refuse Sean's kind gesture, and she answered, "I'll land at around 11:30 pm. Thank you."

"Send me a message when you arrive," Sean instructed.

"Okay."

After returning from River Town, Angeline didn't sleep for the entire night. The next morning, she didn't say anything and just shut herself in her dorm room to memorize her materials.

A week before Angeline and James were about to set off for Dmont, the case's verdict was issued.

Due to the severity of the case, Michael, the principal offender, was sentenced to ten years. The others were sentenced to three years, all except for the 14-year-old minor. He was absolved of criminal responsibility and was ordered to undergo correctional education.

Only the main culprit Tommy, got off scot-free.

After the verdict was announced, Angeline went off by herself to bury Henrietta's ashes next to Anne's. She didn't ask for any company.

Her phone vibrated.

It was Tommy, who had just gone abroad the day before. He was messaging her from a foreign number.
