Let’s Meet Again
Inside the courtroom, discussions about the case continued, but soon, Jack’s attorney requested a postponement. Addressing the judge, he emphasized, “New evidence has come to light that we need to review. It’s in everyone’s best interest not to proceed further today.” With that, the judge agreed to halt the case, allowing everyone to leave temporarily.
Jack breathed a sigh of relief, grateful for the extra time before having to face the possibility of paying the $65,000. As he exited the courthouse, he crossed paths with Lucy in the corridor. Though no words were exchanged, Jack silently vowed that this battle was far from over.
