Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1372

Alyssa and Jasper were shocked. They exclaimed in unison, "What did you say, Taty?"

After her deliberation, Tatiana's expression was calm and resolute. "It doesn't matter if I have to give my statement at the police station or testify against David in court. I will take the witness stand. I'm willing to do it.

"I just want David to be brought to justice, and to ensure that justice is served on behalf of those women. No matter how immense the pressure, I can handle it."

At this moment, it was as if the air around them had frozen.

At first, Tatiana thought that they would strongly support her idea. To her surprise, both Alyssa's and Jasper's faces turned glum. They didn't say a word.

"Even though David didn't get his way with me, it was still an assault attempt. Moreover, I'm sure that I will be able to garner the people's attention when I step forward to accuse him, especially with a status like mine.

"Then, the Schmidts wouldn't be able to shut people up even if they wanted to. When that time comes, we must bring justice to David for the sake of the women he defiled. In the face of pressure, the Schmidts wouldn't be able to cover for him even if they wanted to!"

"But have you thought of the horrifying risks you'd have to go through if you were to do this?"

Alyssa's brows were knitted tightly. She spoke in a stern tone; one that was stricter than a parent's.

"You want to expose the incident when David tried to harm you. Contrary to what you expect, people with bad intentions will end up getting a hold of you. They may take the chance to distort the truth and make groundless accusations. They might even stir things up!

"If so, both you and Lyla will be pushed to the edge of the cliff. Even if you were able to handle the colossal pressure, do you think that Lyla would be able to?

"Furthermore, David can only be charged with attempted assault if you were to step up and give your testimony. He'll then get three to five years of jail time. He'd be released and then continue to harm others!

"If we don't get to the bottom of things, Josh will surely think of another way to denigrate you. How are you going to respond then? How should Sean help and protect you? Do you both really wish to spend the rest of your lives being entangled with the assholes from the Schmidt family?"

Tatiana's heart wrenched at the thought of her mother and Sean.

That being said, her heart ached even more for the women who fell victim to David.

She was Winston's daughter. She also had the support of such powerful individuals as Alyssa and Jasper. Even so, she barely even got back at him.

Those other women were the ones who were really at the mercy of others. They were basically in a living hell.

Alyssa took a deep breath. She then spoke up with a hint of emotionless intimidation, "There's another thing. Even if you were to testify against David, it wouldn't be easy to take him down.
