The attendants on both sides hurriedly put the plates and lunch boxes in front of her.
A staff member also quickly brought a glass of iced Coke and said respectfully, “Sister Elaine, this is sugar-free cola, you can
drink it with confidence without worrying about blood sugar.”
Elaine hummed with satisfaction, took a sip of the cola, and immediately felt a refreshing comfort in this hot summer.
She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, “This person is also strange, I never want to drink Coke when I see it outside, but here,
drinking a sip of iced Coke can be so satisfying.”
Thinking happily, the previous prison guard was in a hurry.
Running to her dining table, she said with joy, “Sister Elaine, Sister Elaine! There is good news, Sister Elaine!”
Seeing her excited face, Elaine suddenly thumped, and couldn’t help but blurted out and asked, “What good news made you so
excited.”
The prison guard hurriedly explained, “Sister Elaine, your lawyer is here!”
“My lawyer?!” Elaine’s expression instantly froze, and she exclaimed, “Is that James White? What is he doing here?!”
The prison guard said excitedly, “He came to meet you, saying that there is great news to convey to you.”
Elaine was stunned, frowned and said, “Could it be... Did he clear my suspicions?!”
The prison guard said without hesitation, “It should be! Otherwise how can it be called good news?! Sister Elaine,
congratulations to you.
You will be able to clear your suspicions and regain your freedom soon!”
Elaine’s expression was a bit depressed, and she thought to herself, “But I don’t want to recover my freedom now... If I recover
now that I am free, how can I be the ghost in Bedford Hills?”
The prison guard saw that Elaine was a little lost, and couldn’t help reminding, “Sister Elaine, the lawyer is waiting in the
interview room now, do you want to go now?”
After speaking, she hurriedly said, “Sister Elaine, why don’t you eat first, it’s the same thing before you go after you’ve eaten
enough.
Just let the lawyer wait in the meeting room for a while.”
Elaine felt a little bit in her heart.
Unsteady, what is going on, she has to see James White before she can eat now. So, she stood up and said, “Take me to see
him first, otherwise I really can’t eat!”
With that, she followed the prison guard to the interview room of the correctional institution.
At this point, New York’s most famous criminal lawyer, James White, was already waiting here.
Seeing Elaine come in, he immediately stood up and said with great respect, “Hello, Ms.
Wilson, we met again.”
Elaine nodded absently, and then asked him, “What did you come to see me for? Is something wrong?”
James said with a smile, “Ms.
Wilson, I came here to tell you good news.
The woman who handed you the contraband at the airport has finally been brought to justice!”
“What?!” Elaine blurted out and asked, “Are you talking about Pauline?”
James explained, “That woman’s real name is not Pauline, her name is...”
Elaine put it down impatiently and waved her hand, interrupted him, and said, “I don’t care what her name is, I just want to know
what the state of the matter is now.”
James thought that Elaine couldn’t wait to go out, so he looked excited.
“According to my informant in the NYPD, the woman has confessed to the police what she did, and the police can now basically
confirm that you are innocent.
But the police still need to go further with some legal process, and when it’s over, you’ll be issued a certificate that you really
didn’t know anything about it.
Then a document will be sent to Bedford Hills Correctional Institution, and then you’ll be free.”
When Elaine heard this, she quickly asked, “Then when will they let me out?”
James looked at the time and replied, “I’m afraid it’s a bit late today, but tomorrow will be fine!
“Ah?!” Elaine blurted out with a look of disappointment, “Then what... Can’t we let them slow down for a few more days?”
