Too Much to Bear, My Love

Chapter 521 Out Of Prison

That night, Oscar gave Hugo a call when Amelia was asleep. “Hugo, get the lawyer to drop the charges. Then, I want you to find that woman in jail and teach her a lesson. Just make sure that whatever injuries you inflict on her can’t be seen with the naked eye. I want her to fear and avoid Amelia from now on. Although my precious Amelia has already asked for mercy on that woman’s behalf, I still can’t let her get out of jail unscathed.”

“Yes, Boss!” Hugo answered.

After hanging up, Oscar kept his phone and went to bed. He carefully took his pillow from Amelia’s arms and put it under his head. Then, he kissed her forehead. “You. I don’t care who begged you to spare her, but I’ll do as you wish since you want me to show them mercy. However, I won’t let that person get off the hook so easily.”

He shut his eyes and fell asleep after that.

The next day, Oscar received a phone call from Hugo when he arrived at the office. He pressed the answer button before asking, “Have you settled everything like I told you to last night?”

“It’s done. Don’t worry, Boss.”

“All right. Good. Tell the police to keep that woman in jail for about four to five days before letting her out.”

“Don’t worry, Boss. I’ve already arranged it. They won’t let her out so easily.”

“Okay. That’s all for now.” With that, Oscar hung up the phone.

Jennifer, who had hardly slept all night, learned from her lawyer that Oscar was dropping the charges and wasn’t going to sue her mother anymore. Her hands trembled when she heard the news, and she was on the verge of crying tears of joy after confirming it.

She sobbed and said, “Thank you so much, Mr. Finley. Thank you for going back and forth from the police station to settle this. Please get my mom out of jail, no matter how much money it takes. Once this is over, I’ll make sure to reimburse your efforts with a nice monetary gift.”

“Don’t get too excited yet, Ms. Larson. I’ve just gone to the police station and learned something. Although the Clintons have dropped the charges, Oscar has told the police to keep Mrs. Larson in there for a couple more days. A lot can happen during these few days. Knowing how capable Mr. Clinton is, no one can say for sure what he might do to your mother,” Nigel Finley, the lawyer that Jennifer hired, replied.

Jennifer’s heart dropped at once. “Mr. Finley, what do you mean by that?”

“I have a good relationship with one of the officers at the police station. He told me that Mr. Clinton instructed someone to teach Mrs. Larson a lesson. I’m afraid she might get messed with a bit. However, that’s better than being sentenced to a long time in jail. I suggest you don’t do anything rash in the meantime to avoid offending Mr. Clinton. Otherwise, Mrs. Larson might suffer from more consequences,” Nigel advised.

That sent Jennifer into a shocked daze. After pausing for a while, she regained her voice and spoke. “Thanks for the advice, Mr. Finley.”

She was getting more and more worried after hanging up the phone. Hence, she grabbed her purse and got into her car before heading toward the police station.
