Chapter 199 Chapter 199 4.69% Quinlyn had thought she would be sent to the Wilson residence, but to her surprise, she found herself back at the Hillside Villa. The villa was even more lively and busy than before.
"Mr. Bronson, the legislature has requested to reconvene for discussion "Mr. Bronson, the judiciary disagrees." "Mr. Bronson..." While Quinlyn was having her meal, people kept coming in, causing her to put down her fork.
"Are you full?" This time, Glenn noticed her first.
Quinlyn shook her head, indicating she still in glanced at her, and their looks were odd.
to cat. "Do I need to cat somewhere else?" After all, everyone who cGlenn seemed defeated by her determination and sighed softly, "Never mind. We wanted you to be part of this. Just keep eating and listen in." Quinlyn was puzzled. She thought, 'How can I be involved in legislation?' But after going without a good meal for days, she finally got to dig into a hearty feast. The chef had laid out a table full of dishes. Not wanting to waste a bite, she focused on eating.
After the meal, Glenn called her over and handed her a document. Quinlyn skimmed through it and got the general idea.
Glenn was working on a new law about juvenile delinquency, and Quinlyn was holding the amendments. To her surprise, most of the cases were ones she'd seen before-categorized just like she had at the juvenile detention center.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"For serious cases," Glenn explained, "the offenders will lose their age protections. They won't be covered by juvenile law anymore. Once they're sentenced, they'll go straight to adult prison." "For less serious cases,” he continued, “we'll look at family situations, offer extra legal help, and decide the sentence based on how they behave during rehab. Like with Bella, we can set up counseling and send them to local welfare institutions. What do you think?" Glenn was summarizing the main points, but he didn't know that Quinlyn had already gone through all the detailed clauses. The amendments were way more detailed and compassionate than his summary.
"Great, really impressive." Quinlyn held the document, nodding, captivated by the power of law for the first time. "Can this becreality?" Seeing the sparkle in her eyes, Glenn couldn't help but smile, "I'll do my best." Over the past month, while Quinlyn had worked hard in the juvenile center, everyone else outside also made efforts to research the law, gather data, and conduct studies. Getting to this point meant they were almost making it.
After Quinlyn finished browsing and had no objections, Glenn added her nas the proposer of the amendments on the title page.
Quinlyn was surprised. "Why?" She thought she hadn't participated.
But Glenn just laughed, "You were the one who cup with the idea and solved the problem. You deserve the credit, so it's only right to add your name." Quinlyn thought it made sense and didn't refuse. It was her achievement, and she won't be modest about it. But she had no idea that her seemingly small role in this document would turn into her biggest asset and shield.
1/3 Chapter 199 2 Apr K 69%8 Being a legislative proposer was more valuable than being the child of a big shot, the chairman of DigitalKey Group, or a billionaire. In the future, the Special Operations and more than half of the villa staff should show her respect.
But Quinlyn didn't know this. After discussion, she went upstairs to take a shower and went straight to bed, sleeping deeply for two days.
When she groggily cdownstairs, she found the living room filled with people in suits. She'd seen many of them when she had first cto the villa.
However, back then, they hadn't paid her any attention. But now, they were all nodding and greeting her, saying, "Good morning. Ms. Yates." "Good morning." Quinlyn said, a bit puzzled, as she looked at Glenn.
"The proposal passed the preliminary review this morning." Glenn said with a bright smile, looking way different from the tired guy he was a few days ago. But Quinlyn still didn't quite get it.
Breakfast was a feast, and Quinlyn ate until she was full. Afterward, she packed her stuff, and Glenn was still there when she cback downstairs.
Glenn noticed her small suitcase and was surprised. "You're leaving already?" "Yeah, I'm heading home," Quinlyn said. She remembered she'd chere for protection in the first place. Since she'd broken the agreement, that protection was gone. She figured it was tto leave.
"Isn't it nice here? Are you not comfortable staying here?" Glenn asked with curiosity. It was the first the'd seen a kid eager to leave.
Usually, people did their best to get in. When Edward first made the request, Glenn thought it was an excuse. Many people wanted to bring kids to Glenn, especially since he didn't have any children of his own.
But Quinlyn stared straight at him, not flinching, and nodded directly. "Yeah, it's uncomfortable, and my grandpa is waiting forat home." Glenn was momentarily speechless, looking around the roomy living room. It had no kids' toys or colorful decorations-just piles of documents. "This place is pretty dull," he said. "I'll get stoys in here." "Do you like playing with LEGO? If you want to go out, it's okay. I remember your brothers are in the Briarwood University," he added.
"Did something happen to Edward?" Quinlyn suddenly interrupted.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGlenn paused, looked up to meet her unusually calm gaze, and after a moment, sighed helplessly, “I knew I couldn't hide it from you. You were sent here because Edward's health wasn't good, and he needed surgery. He should be abroad now." Quinlyn sat down and nodded upon hearing this. "Was the surgery successful?"
"We're not sure yet. Edward's leg is still packed with shrapnel from years ago. It couldn't all be removed. Even with today's advanced tech, his body's just getting too old," Glenn admitted to Quinlyn. Glenn felt that trying to trick Quinlyn with tactics meant for kids wouldn't work and might even backfire.
Quinlyn pressed her lips together. After a brief pause, she said, “Okay, can I stay here for a while? Ilg hwhen Edward wakes up and misses me." She would be obedient to Edward's wishes and not worry him. Glenn, who always thought he had a tough heart, couldn't help but feel a little down. "Alright, I'll get someone to take you to Briarwood University," he said.
Quinlyn didn't head to Briarwood University. Instead, she went to the juvenile detention center. Bella was getting bailed out 2/3 16:24 Wed, 2 Apr Chapter 199 and released today.
When the car arrived, Bella was carrying her belongings out of the iron gates, looking lost and unsure. After two years inside, she had no idea what to do next.
As soon as Bella looked up, she saw a familiar black luxury car. The door opened. Quinlyn quickly hopped out. "Bella" Quinlyn waved at her in the morning sun, a smile on her face.
Bella was stunned. She didn't expect Quinlyn to come. They ended up meeting again much sooner than she had anticipated.
"How did you..." Bella began, her voice choked up with emotion.
Quinlyn ran over and took her scarred hand. "I promised I'd protect you. You om a can go to school and even beca lawyer. now." Quinlyn's innocent words floated like an impossible dream. "It was you who bailedout." Bella realized instantly, and tears streamed down her face.
