Chapter 574

After hanging up the phone, Bethany felt completely unsettled. The court officials had approached her multiple times, but she couldn't answer any of their questions. Soon, Frank appeared. She nearly stumbled as she hurried toward him, her expression filled with unspoken questions. After a long moment, she finally managed to ask, her voice thick, "What's wrong?" "It's nothing. Just come to the manor with me," Frank said, unable to meet her gaze. Bethany's legs buckled, and she almost fell. Frank quickly steadied her. "Beth, you need to stay strong. Come with me, and let's head back for now." Bethany nodded, tears beginning to spill over. On their way out, they ran into Jean. Jean noticed Bethany's pale face and how distressed she looked. She quickly asked, "Beth, what happened? Trystan still hasn't shown up?" "Ms. Zeller, something happened at home," Frank explained, supporting Bethany as he spoke. "Beth needs to come with me. I'm really sorry, but can we reschedule this trial?"
