Whether it involved Carson and Suzanna facing a month of detention or the looming compensation, these issues had now become the greatest challenges for the Shields.

Christina was on the verge of a breakdown, but she caught herself; this was being live-streamed, and she had no desire to tarnish her reputation as a refined member of the Shields. Her resentment toward Melody only grew stronger.

Though they were both her daughters, Suzanna had always been dutiful and caring, even when her choices, which were made in support of Carson, led to mistakes. Suzie's intentions were always good, keeping family bonds at the forefront. But what about Melody?

So who wrote that lackluster song that Suzanna selflessly handed over to Carson?

How could it be considered theft when it was merely family sharing resources?

"Melody, both Carson and I could end up in jail!

"But Suzie shouldn't. Last time, you hurt her face so badly; now she's just beginning to heal. If she goes back to jail, I fear she won't cope...

Christina gazed at Melody, trying to appeal to her emotions.

Her expression was tight with anxiety, revealing her inner turmoil.

After sharing a glance with Derrick, she realized there was no avoiding this prison sentence.

But her priority was to protect Suzanna at all costs.

After all, Suzanna was the cherished treasure Christina had adored for twenty years, loved like a priceless

gem.

She would rather endure any hardship herself than let Suzanna suffer even a moment.

Melody raised an eyebrow, a wicked grin spreading across her face. "Oh, sounds thrilling."

Speechless, Christina thought, This insufferable girl is truly a nightmare; she thinks this is funny! How utterly heartless!

Suzanna looked frail and pale, her bruises making her blotchy skin swell alarmingly.

What a spectacle Melody had created-she had publicly humiliated Suzanna!

As Christina approached with concern, Suzanna's eyes brightened momentarily. She collapsed into her mother's arms, feeling wronged. ""Mom, I'm fine. I can handle this.

"But Carson looks utterly crushed. I fear he might do something rash...

"1

Suzanna's words jolted Christina into action; if Carson took all the blame, Suzanna might be spared the pain.

With that thought, Christina moved toward Carson, who sat slumped in a defeated manner, looking utterly lost.

When she locked eyes with his dull gray gaze, her heart sank.

That expression, that posture-it was all too reminiscent of Gary during his recent breakdown...

A wave of panic washed over her.
