Daniel’s POV:

After they put Helen in jail, I went to see her quite often because I couldn’t help worrying about her.

The pitiful look in her eyes broke my heart.I had to find a way to prove Helen’s innocence as soon as possible.I couldn’t let her continue to suffer in jail.

Thinking of this, I turned around and walked to the cell where Mandy was being kept.I thought that perhaps she would be able to give me some useful information.

“Daniel! Daniel, you’re finally here.I’m so scared.Please don’t leave me here!”

As soon as I stood outside her cell, Mandy rushed to me at once, crying and begging desperately.

I was utterly shocked to find her in such a state.

“Mandy.”

I frowned as there was nothing I could do for her.

“Daniel, please get me out of here.I don’t want to be locked up here!”

Mandy’s voice rose to a shrill cry, attracting the attention of the prison guards.

“Mandy, stop whining and listen to me.I need to ask you something.Why did you give the perfume to Helen?”

I looked at Mandy coldly.

“You’d better tell me the truth now because sooner or later it’s going to come out.If you help me now, I will plead for you and ask my mother to lessen your sentence.”

“I didn’t give her any perfume!”

Mandy looked away and refused to admit it.

“If you don’t tell me the truth, I can’t help you get out of here.”

I held the bars of the cell and roared angrily.

“Come on, Daniel.I’m not a fool.”

Mandy curled her lips.

“Do you really think that I don’t know what you’re trying to do? You never cared about me! You just want to save Helen! Well, guess what? I won’t help you unless you promise to be with me instead!”

I stared at Mandy in stunned disbelief.
