Yvonne frantically tried to think of a solution when a call came in from Seth. She answered immediately. “Seth, what’s the situation?”
“I’ve looked into it. It’s not good. The fact that it was all broadcast live has made it go viral. It’s impossible to get her out quietly. The higher-ups are already aware of it.”
Yvonne sank onto the sofa. “What are the police saying?”
“I haven’t been able to see her yet, so I don’t have the details.”
“I see.”
After hanging up, Yvonne decided she had to go to the police station herself. She needed to speak with Lana and make sure she didn’t say anything foolish.
Lana was a nervous wreck. It was the first time she had ever been in a police station. Yvonne called in a favor with a contact, Forrest, who managed to arrange a brief meeting. The moment Lana saw her, she begged Yvonne to get her out.
“It’s complicated,” Yvonne said. “You might have to stay here for a while. Once things quiet down, I’ll find a way.”
Lana’s face went pale. “Am I going to jail?”
“No. Trust me, I will get you out,” Yvonne said, her eyes boring into Lana’s. “But you cannot, under any circumstances, confess to anything. If you do, my hands will be tied.”
Lana, completely lost, clung to Yvonne’s words. She trusted that Yvonne would find a way. “I understand,” she promised.
After leaving the station, Yvonne called the man who had arranged the accidents. “What kind of sloppy work was that? How did you get caught? You’ve dragged my sister into this mess.”
“We don’t know what happened,” the man snarled. “The driver just cracked and confessed. Since Lana was the contact, the police traced it back to her.”
