Blake had indeed been released on bail. The jury, on the other hand, was trying to sue Blake. However, the court had ruled that evidence was insufficient.

There were two reasons.

Firstly, no one could prove that it was Blake who hurt Rick. The injury might have been done by Rick himself. Even if there were witnesses, it was meaningless because all the people present at the scene were somehow related to Rick.

Secondly, nobody was able to prove that it was Blake who kidnapped Anne. The letter might have been fabricated by Anne to frame Blake. Blake's lawyer used these two points and completely invalidated the jury's evidence. After that, he signed up for temporary release on bail.

Charlotte was incensed. Her hand, which was holding a document, was trembling. She wouldn't have thought that Blake could be this shameless.

Rick's assistant handed her the second piece of document. "About Blake's social circle that you asked me to investigate earlier, I realize that he knows a lot of gangsters. Even though our country is implementing a crackdown on gangsterism, the remaining forces are actually stronger than before."

"Are you saying that we can't solve the problem privately because we can't go against the law? And our only choice is to sign the dispute settlement understanding?"

"Well, Ms. Emerson, I really have no idea. Jane Corporation has always been doing legal businesses, it was passed down through generations. Maybe you can ask Mr. Hart for advice." Avery?

"He's on bad terms with Shane and still needs to investigate Shane's father. I'm afraid that he doesn't have that much time to care about what's happening between me and Rick," she thought. Charlotte rubbed her temples and raised her hand. "You can leave first."

"Ms. Emerson..."

"I'll come up with my own solution."

"Yes."

After an entire hour, Charlotte was still unable to come up with an effective method.

Was it possible to make Blake pay for what he has done without breaching the law or contacting him privately? Unless she took a knife to chop him up and killed herself right away, there was no other option. Just when Charlotte was at her wits' end, Rick's assistant suddenly came in and said that a lady named Miss Stevens wanted to meet her.

Miss Stevens?

Charlotte didn't have a girl friend with the last name Stevens.

"Why is she looking for me?"

"Uh, well, Miss Stevens is Mr. Jane's admirer..."

Alright.

One problem came after another.

Troublesome things always came in a pile.

Charlotte helplessly got up and walked towards the reception room.
