Chapter 667
Chapter 667:
Watching Maia settle into the chair, silent and unmoving, he convinced himself that she had given up the fight.
Amusement overtook him, and he let out a taunting laugh. “Maia, cat got your tongue? You look pretty rattled. Is that the face of someone who knows the game is up p>
Richard pressed on, “Maia, someone like you doesn’t deserve an ounce of sympathy. The Morgan family is the only one willing to look past everything you’ve done and welcome you in, but all you’ve done is prove how ungrateful you are!” He paused, lifting his chin with a sense of victory before adding, “I’ll make sure the entire world knows exactly how awful you really are p>
No sooner had he stopped than the hostess’s voice came through loud and clear on the big screen. “You seem to have very strong feelings about Maia. I heard that on her very first day in prison, she got into a fight and ended up facing punishment. Can you tell us if that really happened p>
All eyes immediately turned to the screen.
Upon hearing the question, the middle-aged woman prisoner began nodding vigorously.
“I absolutely remember what happened,” she replied.
Curiosity shone in the hostess’s eyes as she leaned in with the microphone. “Could you share the details with us p>
“Of course I can!” Moving closer to the microphone, the woman explained, “When Maia showed up at the prison, she grabbed hold of anyone she came across, insisting that she hadn’t stolen anything and that she was innocent.” A sneer appeared on her face. “Isn’t that what everyone in prison says p>
She went on, “A few of the older inmates found her behavior irritating and wanted to put her in her place, hoping she’d just be quiet. Maia, though, didn’t back down. She fought back! If she had just kept her head down and endured their attack, things might have ended there. Instead, she pushed back, and that led to a fight with the group. Before long, the whole thing turned into several people ganging up on her, which finally got the guards involved. By the end of the day, many inmates faced punishment. I was one of them. How could I ever forget? I was only watching what was happening, didn’t even get involved, but I still got locked away for three days! But after that p>
Suddenly, the prisoner lifted her gaze to meet the hostess’s eyes. “Do you want to guess what happened after that p>
Shock rippled through the audience at the event and everyone watching the live stream.
Wasn’t it said that Maia had attacked and injured others first? How did the story turn into self-defense?
Right then, the hostess’s eyebrows knitted together, and she swallowed hard. Something felt off with this prisoner. Instead of sticking to the plan, the woman had turned things around and was now asking her to guess.
Even though the tension made for interesting television, that wasn’t why the host was there today.
