Oh Bettie glanced at Ritas departing figure and commented, Typical Rita, all talk but no real action. Whats she doing at the police station anyway?
I bet its about Sierra. Theyve just announced Sierras verdict. Ritas probably here to figure out how Sierra can serve her time without actually being in jail, Sabrina voiced her guess.
The reason behind this was Sierras pregnancy, which made her eligible for an alternative to imprisonment. This seemed to give Rita a new angle to consider, so she didnt bother Sabrina further.
Serving her sentence outside jail? How come? Bettie asked.
Because shes pregnant, Sabrina revealed.
Wow. Betties lips quirked in surprise. Whos the father?
No idea. Sabrina shook her head.
They continued their conversation as they left the police station.
Do you guys need a ride? Lance, who had been trailing behind, offered.

No, thanks. My drivers already here, Sabrina replied, looking back.
Lance didnt push further and walked them to the car.
Before sliding into the car, Bettie looked at Lance, paused to think, and then asked, When do you have time tomorrow? Id like to buy you a meal.

Lance answered, Im free around noon or in the evening.
Bettie replied, Well figure it out later.
Sure, Lance agreed with a nod.
After watching their car pull away, Lance headed back to the police station.
Upon reviewing Sabrinas statement, Lance was shocked to discover that Jennies car incident was actually caused by Keilanis actions!
Lances frown deepened. Not even a wild beast would harm its offspring. Yet, Keilani hurt her own daughter. She was even more insane than he had thought. She couldnt remain in Mathias anymore.
However, Lance didnt get what Keilani desired to achieve by orchestrating this. What was on Keilanis mind?
Alices statement was ready as Lance waited a bit longer.
According to Alice, Keilani found out about Sabrinas pregnancy, felt threatened, and intended to hurt Sabrina. However, the presence of Sabrinas two bodyguards prevented Keilani, forcing her to kidnap Bettie instead to lure Sabrina out. Alice claimed her attempts to reason with Keilani were in vain.
No matter how much the police pressed her, Keilani just sat there, unmoved, saying nothing but, I want Lance to come see me.
The young officer exited the interrogation room, looking frustrated.
He felt unlucky to deal with this challenging case today.
