Chapter 0127

After leaving jail, I had nowhere to go. I extracted the recording of my conversation with Zachary and sent it to Cindy.

Once she heard the recording, she would understand that there was no other path for her but to proceed with the tr as planned.

I told her that if she didn't want to appear in court, I could handle it myself. She replied that she needed to think it over and see how her health would be next month. "If my health allows me to, I would like to see him one more time."

Of course, I respected her decision, but her words almost made me lose my composure. She said, "Perhaps that meeting will be the last time I ever see him in this life."

The sun had dipped below the horizon, and dusk didn't last long. After I hung up the phone, the neon lights on the street flickered to life. I had planned to go straight back to Coral Villa, but then Yasmine called. Recently, I had taken on Cindy's divorce case, and due to the celebrity effect, discussions about me on the internet had not ceased.

Yasmine was worried that the pressure might be getting to me, so she suggested we meet to relax. I readily agreed.

At home, Nicholas was probably trying his best to comfort Claudia. I wasn't sure if four hours would be enough today, so I decided not to go back and disturb them.

Feeling the weight of my emotions, I wanted to indulge a little. I spared no expense and arranged to meet Yasmine at the most

luxurious nightclub in the city. I was prepared not to leave until I was thoroughly drunk.

At this point, there were some things I needed to be open with her about, and I would need her help with them.
