The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 362

Chapter 362 It’s Okay, I’ve Got You

Later, Amanda and Elias arrived at the prison’s visitation room. The prison guard led Raymond out. At this point, the gardener had already been handcuffed and there was no concealing the lifeless expression on his face.

His head hung low as he sat across from them, lost in his thoughts.

Amanda looked at the man in front of her as she questioned in a professional tone, “Are you really going to take the blame for that person? Are you content with the result?”

Alas, Raymond remained silent as he stared at the handcuffs on his wrists and said nothing.

“Are you so devoted to taking the blame for that person because you have nothing left to lose? Do you truly believe that person will cure your wife’s illness for you?”

Unfortunately, it didn’t matter what Amanda said, he continued to keep his head down as if he were a statue. One might even suspect he indeed was a statue if it weren’t for the slight rise and fall of his shoulders as he breathed.

“Raymond Porter, I’m talking to you!” She couldn’t help flipping out. “Can’t you hear me? Answer me!”

“I have nothing to say, Miss Bailey. I did it all. There’s no need to probe further or use any tricks. It was all me.” He refused to confess, and he even tried to leave.

In all honesty, she was on the verge of blowing up. She had never once felt so powerless before as she was unable to communicate with the litigant as a lawyer, for the person refused to communicate.

Next to Amanda, Elias simply smirked and finally spoke up, “Tell us why you did it, then.”

“Because I had admired Miss Stephanie for a long time, so I had ill intentions and couldn’t help but make all the mistakes-” Raymond spoke the rehearsed lines as if reciting from a textbook.

So, Elias interrupted him bluntly in a rather scathing tone, “Enough. Save your lies for the

kids.”

After that, Raymond returned to silence, keeping his head down and not uttering another word. It seemed that there was nothing left in this world that was worth cherishing for him.
