Chapter 1162
Rosalie thought for a while and said, “Unless both you and Warren, as the victims, provide memorandums of understanding, and your lawyer argues that the principal offender merely incited Alicia, then the maximum she could receive is probation.”
“A probation? If that’s the case, Alicia might not even end up in jail. Will she be willing to divulge where Riley is?” Amelia wondered.
“What’s the matter with you? Why are you suddenly asking about this?” Rosalie asked. “If you are worried that a lawyer will defend Alicia and she will be released, you can rest assured. This time, the York family has found a well-known lawyer in the country. He hasn’t lost for ten years. The lawyer is famous for his viciousness. He will surely fight this case to death. Alicia won’t get out of prison without serving at least a ten-year sentence.”
But when she said this, Amelia’s face turned a little gloomy. “Is it possible to beat the lawyer and let her be on probation instead?”
Rosalie sensed something was off and asked curiously, “Why? Are you hoping for a probation?”
“I have a friend who has lost contact, but Alicia knows the whereabouts of my friend. She’s only willing to tell me where my friend is after getting out of prison,” Amelia said.
Rosalie said, “So you’re going to have Alicia sentenced to probation?”
“She originally wanted to be acquitted, but now she can only get probation at most, right?” Amelia asked.
“Is that friend of yours very important to you?” Rosalie asked.
Amelia smiled bitterly. “Just like what Lillian means to you. If it weren’t for that person, maybe there wouldn’t have been me and Aiden now!”
Suddenly, Rosalie understood how important that person was to Amelia.
“According to Alicia, my friend is living a hard life now. She’s like a mad woman who was abused by others. If what Alicia said is true, I must find that friend at once!” Amelia said. “Still, you know more about the law

than me. I just want to know how likely Alicia will be sentenced to probation.”
“Very slim chance,” Rosalie replied. “Even if you issue a memorandum of understanding, Warren might not be willing to. Plus, even if I help you invite Mr. Smuckler to fight this case, there is only a ten percent chance of winning this case against the lawyer that the York family hired. After all, the evidence is incriminating!”
Amelia’s heart fell.
Rosalie paused and continued, “Well, that is unless the York family also refuses to investigate Alicia, and the lawyer of the York family pushes all the blame on Mr. Yustone. In that case, Alicia could still be sentenced lightly.”
Amelia felt her heart was sinking.
Rosalie said, “Amelia… If you really want to know the whereabouts of your friend, we can think about other ways. We can look up Alicia’s interpersonal relationships and see if there is

any clue.”
However, she knew very well that it would take a long time to find out whether there was any suspicion. Even if she really knew Riley’s whereabouts, it might be a long time later.
Well, it didn’t have to go down that way if she went to find Warren, ask him to issue a memorandum of understanding, and let the lawyer glos over Alicia’s prosecution.
However, given her relationship with Warren, how could she have the nerve to beg him? Thinking of this, Amelia was full of bitterness.
In the evening, Rosalie told Jonathan about Amelia.
“Jon, why don’t you find someone to investigate Alicia’s past contacts and see if there is anything special? Can you find out something?” Rosalie asked.
“Do you want to help Amelia find out the whereabouts of her friend?” Jonathan asked.

“Well, Amelia is my friend. Of course, I will help her.” Rosalie said. “And I don’t want to see Amelia being threatened by Alicia. She almost killed the child in Amelia’s stomach and made her almost suffer an insult. Such a person doesn’t even deserve to be on probation.”
“If you really want to know the whereabouts of Amelia’s friend, there’s no need to go to such troubles. Just get Alicia talking,” Jonathan said.
Rosalie blinked her eyes with confusion.
“As long as I let her suffer, she will surely open her mouth. People like Alicia won’t be able to take on much suffering,” Jonathan said.
Suddenly, Rosalie understood.
“I’m afraid Jonathan’s ‘suffering’ was not as simple as he suggested. It would be more like torture,” she mused.
“Alicia is now in the detention center!” Rosalie reminded him.
“So what? As long as you want, I will be able to find someone to do it,” he said nonchalantly.
“But… It’s against the law,” Rosalie said.
He stared at her and understood her respect for the law. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to be a lawyer!
And because he was with her, he shunned his dark side and gradually changed his working principles.
“Rosie, for me, as long as it is your wish, I will be willing to fulfill it for you. If you want me to become a law-abiding person, I will also be willing to comply with it. But if your wish must be realized by any means, then I can also do those for you,” he stated. Then, he murmured in a low voice, “To me, you are my
law.”
It was the law that he would listen to.
Rosalie’s eyes suddenly turned hot, and she only felt that tears were about to gush out of her eyes. “Jon, my greatest wish is to see you well. If my wish warrants you to do something you’re not supposed to, I’d rather give up on that wish.”
