âBut even if theyâre applying for the conviction to be overturned, it doesnât happen that fast! According to how it normally
goes.â
Before Jenny could finish speaking, she was interrupted by her father. âDonât forget whoâs on her side now!â
Jenny went silent immediately. Right⦠There was Jackson!
The normal process was only reserved for commo
âOkay, no matter what, once this news breaks out, weâll have to come up with our view on the matter. You mustnât offend the Valors because of this matter, do you understand?â asked Quinton to his daughter.
Jenny almost snapped her phone in half when she heard that.
When the charges had initially been read out, she had deliberately insulted Serenity and made a lot of noise while accusing her of murdering her sister.
And yet, her father seemed to be asking her to issue a public apology to Serenity. How embarrassing would that be?!
âDo you hear me, Jenny?â Quintonâs tone was surprisingly serious. âDonât drag our family down! Remember, all I want is for our family to last forever!â
Jenny took a deep breath before she answered, âI understand!â
After hanging up, she smashed her phone to the floor.
Regardless of the circumstances, she still had to swallow her anger, Sooner or later, she would have to appear before the media and bow her head in apology to Serenity.
Serenity stared at the court verdict in her hand. It felt surreal. Had they⦠really managed to overturn her conviction? The crimes that had weighed down so heavily on her shoulders had finally been taken off her back.
Who wouldâve thought that her case would be overturned so quickly?!
At one point, she thought that she would break down in tears when she received this document. After all, this desire to restore her innocence had been constantly on her mind.
In actuality, when she received her verdict, she felt sapped of all energy. All she wanted right now was a good nightâs sleep. Like an invisible shackle, the conviction had kept her locked up for far too long.
Now that these shackles had been lost, she felt almost weightless.
âWhatâs the matter? Arenât you happy?â asked Jackson, who was staring a hole through the verdict.
âQuite the contrary, Iâm very happy!â said Serenity before letting out a long sigh. âMaybe this is the happiest day Iâve ever had since that incident. I just feel incredibly tired. I need to catch some sleep. Maybe after waking up, Iâll be able to find the â
meâ from before.â
âThen sleep tight,â said Jackson.
Serenity nodded her head lightly then rested her head on his shoulder. âIâve been declared innocent, and theyâre going to restore my right to practice as an attorney. But⦠after four whole years, I doubt I still remember the things I learned before. Do you think I can still be an attorney?â
âIf you wish to do so, I donât see why not.â
âIâm thinking if I should be a lawyer again!â said Serenity with a hopeful voice. âIâve worked myself to the bone for so many years just to be a lawyer. Of course, I wish to do so!â
Jackson remained silent. Then, Serenity whispered into his ear, âThank you, Jack⦠if it werenât for you, maybe Iâd never be able to overturn my conviction. Iâm so lucky to have met youâ¦â
As her voice grew softer, she slowly shut her eyelids and fell asleep.
