Chapter 357 He Deserves It

During the filming today, Lenora seemed somewhat absent-minded. +10 Free Coins

Before heading to work, she received news. Zachary had managed to delay the case's progress to the court through his influence in the procurator's office. There was a possibility that the case would be sent back to the police for further investigation due to insufficient evidence. At the same time, he had also hired Zayne, the top lawyer in Jacaster, for Johanne. He was prepared for all eventualities. Even if he couldn't suppress the case, he was determined to secure the lightest possible sentence for Johanne.

If it were merely a matter of hiring a lawyer, Lenora wouldn't have batted an eye. After all, it was Johanne's rightful prerogative. However, Johanne crossed a line when he reached out to the procurator's office, intending to delay the progression of the case. Zachary trusted Johanne's words, believing that Susanna was the mastermind behind her father's murder. He aimed to buy time in order to gather evidence that would be favorable to Johanne.

When Lenora heard the news, Tamara's words instantly flashed across her mind.

Zack's deep affection for Johanne is well-known. He's currently trying to clear Johanne's name.

So, if the case is sent back for reinvestigation, does it mean that the outcome will definitely be the truth?

Lenora's mind was in utter chaos.

She was unsure of whom she should trust!

Once the scene wrapped up, a crew member approached with a phone in hand. "Ms. Wilkin," they said, "you have several missed calls earlier."

"All right. I got it. Thank you."

Lenora took the phone and glanced at it. They were calls from Zachary.

She walked to a secluded area, then returned his calls.

The moment the call connected, Zachary's voice emanated from the receiver. "Grandma has been informed."

A jolt went through Lenora's heart, causing his heartbeat to skip a beat for a moment.

For a few seconds, her mind went blank. She could hear the pounding of her heart in her chest as she asked, "What was her reaction?"

"By the time I found out, she had already calmed down

"How did she find out?"

Zachary sighed. "It was Ryan.

Lenora remained silent.

Her worst fears had indeed come to pass.
