Upon seeing Mr. Darton still helping her, Miss Darcy hurriedly, timidly took refuge behind him.
"Uncle, someone behind the scenes instigated me to do this," she pleaded tearfully, "you must find me the best lawyer to clear my name. Someone wants to strip Prince Nigel Clegg of his inheritance rights, compelling me to take this action."
Miss Darcy wasn't foolish; she knew she still had a glimmer of hope for redemption.
That hope would be... if Prince Jose indeed played a part in this affair.
She held some evidence in her hands, not expecting to take down Jose, but hoping these pieces could keep her out of prison.
She clutched her handbag tightly.
In her phone, there was a recording of a conversation she had with Jose.
Secretly recorded, it captured Jose's own voice, proposing that if Miss Darcy helped him secure the inheritance, he would do his utmost to win Nigel Clegg's love for her.
