Chapter: 5001

"Alright!" The woman inmate nodded respectfully and then went with another inmate to put various foods into a plate, and followed Ma Er to her special dining table.

This table was located near the window, with the best view and most comfortable seating. Since Ma Er became the queen bee of Bedford Hills Correctional Facility after she got there, she had set a rule that only she could use this table.

Originally, almost every day would have inmates fighting over this table, resulting in arguments or even conflicts. But since Ma Er became the leader here, everyone knew to stay away from it to avoid angering her.

After all, Ma Er was surrounded by three extremely capable followers, and more importantly, from the prison guards to the warden, everyone had to give her face. It could be said that Ma Er was like a black-and-white queen at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility.

Ma Er sat down in front of her favorite dining table, with her followers quickly placing the plates and food boxes before her. A staff member also hurriedly brought over a cup of sugar-free ice tea and respectfully said, "Sister Ma, this is unsweetened ice tea, you can drink it freely without worrying about blood sugar problems."

Ma Er nodded in satisfaction, took a sip of the ice tea, and immediately felt a sense of comfort on that hot summer day.

She couldn't help but sigh: "This person is strange. Outside, I never want to drink cola, but here, drinking a cup of ice tea can be so satisfying."

Just as she was feeling content, the Chinese-American female corrections officer hurriedly ran up to her dining table, looking excited and saying, "Sister Ma, Sister Ma! There's good news!"

Ma Er saw her expression and immediately felt a thrill in her heart, unable to help but ask, "What kind of good news is this? What's got you so excited?"

"She's my lawyer?" Ma Er's expression suddenly stiffened, and she exclaimed: "Is it that James White? What's he here for?""

The female corrections officer excitedly said: "He's here to see you in person, saying there's big news to convey face-to-face."

Ma Er was taken aback, furrowing her brow and asking: "Could it be... could it be that my suspicion is cleared?"

The female corrections officer replied without hesitation: "It should be, or else how would it be called big news? Congratulations, Er Ma, you'll soon clear your name and regain freedom!"

Ma Er's expression, however, was a mixture of unhappiness, thinking to herself: "But I don't want to regain my freedom now... If I do now, what about the ghost stories at Bedfrod Mountain?"

The female corrections officer saw Ma Er look a bit lost, couldn't help reminding her: "Er Ma, your lawyer is waiting in the meeting room right now. Do you want to go over first?"

She then quickly added: "Or maybe you should eat first? Eat and then go, it's fine, let that lawyer wait for a bit longer."

Ma Er's heart remained uneasy, not knowing what was going on, and had to see James White to know.

So she stood up and said: "Take me to him right away, or else I won't be able to eat this food!"

As she spoke, Ma Er followed the female corrections officer and arrived at the meeting room of the correctional facility.

Now, renowned criminal lawyer James White from New York was already waiting here.

As Ma Er walked in, he immediately stood up and greeted her respectfully in Mandarin: "Good morning, Mrs. Ma. It's good to see you again."

Ma Er nodded distractedly and then asked him: "What brings you here?"

James White smiled and said: "Mrs. Ma, I'm here to tell you some good news. The woman who was caught at the airport with contraband and handed it over to you has finally been released!"

"What?!" Ma Er exclaimed: "Do you mean Zong Qiu Hua?"

James White explained: "That woman's real name isn't Zong Qiu Hua; she is actually..." JrNovels.com
