Chapter 783

No. 13's eyes brimmed with a frantic unease. "Depression? Cyberbullying?"

He swallowed hard, his Adam's apple moving prominently. It was like he'd gulped down something jagged, and his face twisted in discomfort.

"What about Lincoln? What's he up to?" he growled lowly.

Officer Baldwin gave him a curious look. "You know Lincoln?"

No. 13's expression said it all-it was a no-brainer.

Officer Baldwin remembered that No. 13 had built a tech empire with surveillance systems practically everywhere. It wasn't surprising he had access to some secret info. Baldwin decided to let it slide.

"Mr. Lincoln's been super worried about his daughter. Since the incident, he hasn't left Ashley's side. Still, he's a guy and might not fully get what's going on in a young woman's head. Whether Ashley's condition truly improves is still up in the air."

"Depression's a tough nut to crack."

No. 13's fingers quivered slightly.

After a long pause, No. 13 asked Officer Baldwin, "So, how much can my sentence be cut down?"

Officer Baldwin explained, "During the trial, the judge said if you pay back all the debts, your sentence could change from life to something like eight to ten years."

"You really should get a good lawyer."
