Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 312

The women, who were usually glamorous in front of the camera and imperious behind the scenes, had never been in a police station before. A few stern words from an officer were enough to make them confess everything.

They all told the same story: Yolanda had put them up to it.

Yolanda couldn't deny it; the evidence was irrefutable.

However, since Yvonne hadn't sustained any significant injuries, the incident didn't meet the threshold for formal charges or detention. Both the police and the lawyers recommended a private settlement.

In the mediation room, the two parties faced off.

Yolanda had Oscar by her side, along with her entire legal team, presenting a formidable front.

Yvonne, though alone, was composed and unintimidated, even exuding a certain casual indifference.

"Ms. Jones, I've spoken with my client. This was all a complete misunderstanding. My client, Ms. Walker, simply mentioned to her friends that you seemed quite close with her fiancé, and they misinterpreted the situation. Their intention was only to scare you into staying away from Ms. Walker's fiancé. They didn't cause you any harm; in fact, you ended up injuring them.”

The lawyer spoke clearly and methodically, downplaying the incident in just a few sentences, turning a bullying campaign led by Yolanda into a trivial misunderstanding.

He was truly a top lawyer; Yvonne almost felt like applauding him.

"Mr. Turner, you really are the best in the business. You can make a major incident seem like nothing. A 'misunderstanding'? Do you even believe that yourself?"

Yvonne said with a hint of sarcasm.

Mr. Turner's expression remained unchanged. A seasoned lawyer who had handled major cases wasn't going to be rattled by a few words from Yvonne.

"Ms. Jones, I think you understand that this case doesn't constitute a criminal offense. My clients are willing to settle, and I hope you will approach this with the same attitude."

"What kind of settlement did you have in mind?" Yvonne nodded, asking calmly.

"I'll take you home." Oscar put an arm around Yolanda's shoulders, about to guide her out, but Yvonne's cool voice stopped them.

"You're just leaving like that?"

"What else do you want?" Oscar's brows furrowed as he glared at Yvonne.

"Ms. Walker harmed me. Doesn't she need to apologize? The settlement we just signed stipulated both an apology and compensation."

Yvonne crossed her arms, her gaze sharp.

"You already got your compensation, Yvonne. Don't push your luck," Oscar said, his voice laced with anger.

"The compensation is what I'm owed, and so is the apology. If you don't apologize, I won't drop the case." Yvonne didn't back down an inch.
