He had always adhered to benevolence and humility in court, made a fatal error with Carissa just because she was a female official, having been too arrogant and dismissive of her.
Regardless of what had happened, he still had to visit the SuprCourt and report what needed to be reported. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to explain things to those at hif the officials cknocking again.
The SuprCourt was investigating Eleanor's case again today. This time, under Salvador's orders, they resorted to torture.
Eleanor's fingers were broken, each crack sending her body into spasms. Her body trembled in pain she was sweating profusely. Even so, she didn't utter a single cry. She was indeed a tough one.
She lost consciousness once from the agony..
and But when she woke up, she spoke in a weak but fiercely defiant tone, "If you have any other tricks up your sleeve, go ahead and use them."

Most likely, he would stubbornly hold his ground. Malcolm entered, his usual straight posture slumped. He typically walked with a certain dignity, embodying the spirit of a scholar. But today, he entered with his head down, his back slightly hunched. Rafael had never seen Malcolm in such disarray. It was clear that dealing with affairs at hhad been challenging enough. However, he felt no sympathy for him, knowing the man's arrogance had led him to this point.
With a wave, Rafael dismissed Matthew and the others, preserving Malcolm a little dignity in the om process. Once inside, Malcolm stood awkwardly.
