Mckenzie's chest heaved. She had never thought Hailee would do such a thing, covering her face without speaking.
After talking to Charlie, the police walked towards Hailee with handcuffs.
Hailee was scared, stepping back.
Her eyes showed intense panic. She couldn't stop shouting, "Mckenzie, save me! Save me!"
Mckenzie was still in shock as if she didn’t hear what Hailee said.
The police came forward and handcuffed Hailee.
Hailee was so frightened that she couldn't
stop looking back at Mckenzie, hoping she would speak for her.
If so, Charlie would let her go.
She looked pitiful. Jovanny was crying, kneeling on the ground and grabbing Hailee's legs.
Seeing that his mother was going to be taken away, Jovanny clutched Mckenzie's hand.
"Grandma, save Mommy! Grandma!"
The cries of a small child could always melt people's hearts. Mckenzie looked at Jovanny. She couldn't bear to see him like this.
"Charlie, since she knows she was wrong, let her go!"
Before Charlie could speak, Grace broke in. "No way. It's not a little mistake. It's about a woman's life. One should pay for what they have done. This is the social law."
Jovanny glared at Grace before staring at Mckenzie with a pitiful and sorrowful face.
Seeing this, Mckenzie looked at Charlie. " Jovanny is poor..."
She stopped speaking, but her intentions were obvious.
Charlie kept silent, just looking at Grace.
If she agreed, he wouldn't oppose it.
