Alice got nothing in return. She took the rap but didn't receive the money that was meant to pay off her family's debt.

The culprit didn't honor their deal and her heartbroken mother had to seek help everywhere in a wheelchair.

Even her younger brother was bullied by other kids in school because of what happened.

She finally understood that she had been wrong in every possible way.

“I'm sorry, Mom. I'm so sorry.” Alice rested her head on her mother's lap and wept due to sadness and guilt.

Otherwise, Lucinda didn't have to look for ways to bring her out of prison.
