You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 433

When the judge read out the verdict, Valerie immediately said, "I don't accept it! I want to appeal! I didn't do anything. I didn't do it!"

She pounded the railings with all her might as she shouted.

"Yes, we want to appeal!" Amelia started to cry when she saw her daughter like this. "Valerie has been sensible ever since she was a child. She has never done such a thing. It's Skylar who set us up."

"Alright!" Hector, who had been silently standing next to her, finally spoke up. "Now that you have been sentenced, you should change your ways and strive to reduce your sentence so you can come out earlier."

When Amelia heard Hector's words, she gave him a hard push as she cried. "Why did you say that? I've done everything so far. You didn't care about anything. Now that our daughter has been sentenced, why did you still say that?"

"Dad, please save me. I don't want to go to jail. Please hire the best lawyer for me. I don't want to goto jail."

Valerie was crying so hard that she could not make a sound.

"Who's the one to blame here? Isn't this the result of your love? I asked Valerie to turn herself in when this happened years ago. What did you guys say? You said that if Valerie turned herself in, it would ruin her future!"

Hector looked at Amelia with dissatisfaction written all over his face.

When the accident had happened, Hector's first reaction was to ask Valerie to turn herself in. At that time, he had thought that she should turn herself in first, and then he would find someone to let her off on probation, so that she didn't have to go to jail.

"Are you blaming me? How can you blame me? She's OUR daughter! How could you let your own daughter go to jail!"

Amelia shook his shoulders again and again, her tears streaming continuously down her face.

She didn't care about her image at all.

Seeing that they were making a commotion, the judges had already left.

Other people in the detention center also shouted out, "If you want to cry or quarrel, go home. This is the detention center!"

"Alright, let's go."

When Hector heard those words, he knew that there was nothing he could do to fix things. He turned around to leave.

Amelia grabbed onto him tightly. "If you don't say that you're going to save your daughter today, I'll divorce you!"

"Divorce?" Hearing this, Hector turned to look at Amelia. "What? Are you going to get together with your handsome little lawyer after we divorce?"

In actuality, Hector had long known of Yoel's existence and had also sent someone to investigate his background.

The social circle was so small that Hector easily found out about Yoel's past.

Upon hearing Hector's words, Amelia's face immediately paled. "What are you talking about? I looked for Yoel because no one else was willing to take up this case. There was nothing else I could do!"

"Really? But you've given him a total of 2 million dollars before and after, and you even gave him 500,000 dollars after losing. I don't believe that there's no better lawyer who would be willing to help you at this price."

Hector stared straight at Amelia, clearly seeing through her act.

Hector had kept quiet about this because of Valerie's case, but he hadn't expected that Amelia would suggest a divorce now.

"I..." Amelia staggered back as she stuttered. "I don't know the average rate of lawyer fees. I have never been engaged in a lawsuit. If you think it's too much, I'll ask for it back."

It was because of Yoel's good acting that Amelia had indeed paid him more than the usual rates.

Amelia herself was also well aware of the reasons within.

However, she really didn't capture any benefits from Yoel at all.

"That's enough. I can't help Valerie this time, she'll just have to reflect on herself in jail. If you want a divorce, I'll hand you the documents tomorrow."

After saying that, Hector immediately turned around and walked away.

Valerie was dumbfounded. She had gone to jail and her father not only did not care about it, but her father was willing to divorce her mother.

Amelia stood there, and as she remembered that she was in the detention center, she quickly wiped her tears away and said to Valerie, "Valerie, don't be afraid. I will definitely save you. I won't let you stay in there for too long."

After she finished, she hurried to chase after Hector.

Amelia was not stupid. Although nothing serious had happened between her and Yoel, Hector would definitely be able to divorce her without leaving her any money.
