Chapter 629

“This is the proof of formalities required for prison visits." Braydendirectly showed the proofs and documents he had prepared before andheld them up in front of the prison guards.

After seeing the word Cody, the prison guard couldn't help frowning.Cody was still in a coma... if someone found it out...

He sneered, "I'm sorry, unconvicted prisoners are not allowed to bevisited. Except for his lawyer, no one is allowed to meet him.""Really?" Sylvia raised her eyebrows, looking at the prison guard'ssmug face with a stern look.

This prison guard did not look like a righteous person but a villain.Franklin noticed the title badge on the prison guard's chest: Sheriff.This kind of trash was actually the sheriff of the prison guards?

His intuition told him that this guy was bad.

His cold gaze fell on the sheriff's face, and then, he took out a lawyer'scertificate from out of nowhere and held it up to the sheriff, "I amFranklin, Cody's lawyer. These are my assistants. Can I take them infor a visit now?"

Franklin was a lawyer?

Sylvia glanced at Brayden, who didn't look very surprised.

It seemed that she was the only one kept in the dark?

When did Franklin become a lawyer?

She suddenly remembered she had heard there was a well-knownlawyer named Maskelyne in Urgford and someone had to pay a lot tohire him.

As her mind drifted, she realized that there was no legal counsel in theMaskelyne Group.

Since when did this man have an identity as a famous barrister?

The sheriff stared at Franklin's lawyer's certificate for a while, and thensaid with displeasure, "Go in!"

The security in the prison was very strict.

There was a special prison guard leading the way in front.

After taking them to a room, the prison guard said blankly, "Please waita moment.”

"Are you a lawyer? Or is this certificate fake?" Sylvia raised hereyebrows and looked at the man in front of her.

The outline of the man's handsome face was smooth, and his darkeyes were shining with stars.

"Honey, your tone sounds like mine when I know your new identities."Sylvia curled her lips, and glanced at him awkwardly, "Well, you alsohid your other identity from me. We're even now!"

"When Franklin was in college, he not only studied finance but also law.Geniuses are always similar and destined to meet," Brayden said withan undertone. "So don't blame Franklin for not telling you."

Franklin was very low-key about being a lawyer. Except for a fewpeople in the upper-class circles, most people didn't know about it.

He became famous in the legal circle because of a real estate caseyears ago, but since then he rarely took on cases.

After getting married several years ago, he had no intention of takingon cases or helping people fight lawsuits anymore.

This... was only because his relationship with the Wright Family was sogood that he voluntarily became Cody's lawyer.

Brayden couldn't help but feel moved deep down inside.

He was lucky to have such a good buddy.

In a prison cell somewhere, a middle-aged man shivered and curled upin bed in one corner of the room despite being covered by a blanket.Even though he felt very cold, his cheeks continued to turn red.

The man sleeping next to him sat up and touched his forehead beforewhispering, "Cody, you got a fever.”

He tried forcefully pulling Cody out of bed but had worked all day andnow had no strength left.

Almost everyone imprisoned here were officials who were caughtbecause of committing crime of corruption; they knew each other frombefore, so there weren't any extremely dangerous criminals locked uphere.

When they heard that Cody was sick, other men who were previouslydrowsy immediately gathered around him.

"Cody! Wake up!"

"How are you feeling?"

Perhaps disturbed by all the chatter around him, Cody slowly openedhis eyes and saw several concerned faces.

His mind went blank for an instant before gradually coming back toreality; He forced himself upright, saying, “I probably stayed out toolong in the snow."

Someone handed him water, "Drink some water quickly.”

Cody took the cup but accidentally pulled his back where there werewhip marks causing him to let out an involuntary gasp.

"If 1 go out, the first thing I'll do is take care of that fucking prisonguard,” a man couldn't help but curse, "He was too damn ruthless. Iused to be the governor. Does he really think we're all criminals?""Dominick, let it go..." Cody weakly said, "Aren't we prisoners now? Ourpast glories are all in the past tense.”

He took a sip of water and shakily reached for a pack of pills from hisbedside table before swallowing them.

"The doctor gave me some medicine. Hopefully I'll feel bettertomorrow."
