Chapter 18

“Given the high profile this case is and your clients record or evading the guards, I believe it is in the best interest to keep Ms. Hailey here. I am revoking bail. However, if I see a new bruise on her body, I will reverse my decision and give Ms. Lilith what she is asking for. Understood?”

We knew we were going to get rejected but it still hurt. Jasmine was grinning from ear to ear with that news. By the way Charlotte kept twitching her neck, I knew she could feel me but she refused to look at me. I wanted to tell her to keep her head up, to have some faith. I wanted to say that I was sorry for how things went down but I was trying to help. If she would only meet my eyes, I would relay that to her but she refused.

“Monday we will hear opening statements and get this started.” Judge Janelle ordered.

“Your honor! That is only one day! We need time to prepare our defense!” Lilith tried to plead her case.

“Then I suggest you get to work.” Judge Janelle stood up.

“All rise.” Ever
Mrs. Smith
