"Enough with the superstitious nonsense! We don't even know if there will be a 'from here on out'!"
Darren's words made Victoria's brow furrow even deeper.
"What do you mean, you don't know if there will be a 'from here on out'? What are you talking about?"
"The situation is really bad for Marie. Terence is putting on the pressure, and we have no room to fight back. If she's convicted, Marie could be facing life in prison, or even the death penalty."
Victoria paled, realizing the gravity of the situation.
"Life in prison? The death penalty? How could this be? Is that true?"
"Terence found a witness and evidence. Marie's conviction is practically a sure thing now. The case is already in the judicial system, and sentencing should happen soon."
"Terence found a witness and evidence? So... Marie really did cause her brother's car accident?"
Before, Victoria hadn't cared whether Marie was responsible for her brother's accident.
After all, with him out of the picture, Marie could inherit the Ward Group. It was a good thing.
But now that Marie was in jail, facing at least a life sentence, all the money Victoria had invested in her would be for nothing.
She had spent a fortune on today's wedding!
What a waste!
