Chapter 181

Cordelia hatched the plan with the help of Mr. All–Round, a man with a knack for handling sticky situations Now, Mr. All Round had crafted a statement for her to read to the press.

She wasn’t one for melodrama, and thankfully, the words Mr. All–Round sent her were devoid of any tear–jerking appeal Instead, they were a rational and objective list of the consequences of juvenile delinquency

The thing about Leila went viral, sparking intense discussions across society.
