Chapter 503 A Significant Threat

"Oh." Sophia took another look at Jasmine's retreating figure. "So, it's her. She's all dressed up. What on earth is she doing at the police station?"

"Could it be for Summer?" Lenora speculated. "The verdict for Summer was just handed down. She must be here to arrange for Summer's non-custodial sentencing."

Summer's pregnancy allowed her to serve her sentence outside of prison. This likely gave Jasmine a different perspective and prevented her from continuing to bother Lenora. "Non-custodial sentencing? Why?"

"She's pregnant."

Sophia's lips twitched. "Well, well, whose child is it?"

"I don't know."

The two of them chatted as they exited the police station.

"Do you need a ride?" Zephyr trailed behind them.

"No thanks, the driver dropped me off," Lenora said, turning around.

Zephyr fell silent, escorting the two of them to the car.

Before getting into the car, Sophia glanced at Zephyr. After a moment of thought, she asked, "When will you be free tomorrow? I'd like to treat you to a meal." "Either noon or night works."

"Then we'll talk about it later."

"Okay."

Zephyr deeply furrowed his brows.

But what does it have to do with Zachary?

Why did Isla hold him back?
