Chapter 141

After nearly a week, Elspeth finally walked out of the prosecutor’s office, looking completely wiped out and smelling like a durroster.

Having Acacia use “suicide” as an extreme method to manipulate Thaddeus was Elspett’s idea.

Back in the day. Elspeth used that trick to arouse Frederic’s sympathy and protective instinct, which led to her successful entry into the Abernathy family, and her standing
