Chapter 195: Realization

"Yeah?" Jeremy placed her on the bed and walked to get the first aid box.

He felt bad for not getting to her sooner. It seems like she's affected greatly. He decided to let her speak more. Speaking what's in her mind will reduce her pain.

"Yeah!" Jerlina wiped the corner of her eyes. "Who knows what might have happened? And with what Emma tried to pull... It went smoothly because you were the one with the highest status among them all. If not... no one would have believed me and they'd have tried to silence me... I saw it happen to my colleague from before..."

Jerlina bowed her head once more. If what she went through with Gerard was terrifying, what Emma tried to pull was even more distressing. 

Jeremy saw her going silent once more and walked to her. "The world is not fair, Jerlina. Classism still exists and the wealthy and those with power can get away with almost anything if they tried," he sat beside her.
