Isaac stepped out of the police station after an hour.

Nathan was waiting outside.

“Mr. Salter,” Nathan approached. “As per your earlier instructions, the lawyer is in place…”

“Get a hold of lawyer Jolin,” Isaac cut Nathan off. “I want her to take Joie’s case.”

Nathan choked on his words, a second later doubting his own hearing. “Mr. Salter, are you saying you want to defend Ms. Joie?”

If that was indeed the case, how would he explain it to Ms. Dustin?

“Just do as I say.” Isaac opened the car door. “Handle this with care, and keep it from her.”

Nathan paused for a moment, realizing that ‘her’ meant Brittany.

“Understood.”

On the way back to the hospital, Isaac stopped to pick up some of Brittany’s favorite treats.

Nathan watched as Isaac entered the hospital, then reached out to Jolin. “Jolin, Mr. Salter would like you to represent Ms. Joie.”

Isaac pushed open the door to the hospital room.
