Sabrina sought clarification, inquiring, "Are you suggesting..."

“It pertains to you," Galilea confirmed.

Sabrina, feigning skepticism, responded, "Are you insinuating that Tyrone released you because you possess some incriminating information about me? What a joke! What leverage could you possibly have over me?"

“If you doubt me, I can reveal one to you first. You could check it out and then determine whether a pact is in order," Galilea proposed, having Long cast aside her commitment to Tyrone.

Her sole focus was evading incarceration at this juncture.

With an arched eyebrow and a suspicious countenance, Sabrina deliberated briefly before inquiring, "So, you claim to hold two pieces of damning information against me?"

Sabrina harbored immense curiosity, unable to fathom even one, let alone two.

“Indeed," Galilea affirmed, exuding an air of confidence as she leaned against the back of her chair.

After several moments of contemplative silence, Sabrina acquiesced, “Very well, I agree. Disclose one of them to me. After I've conducted an investigation and ascertained its veracity, I shall return to you.”

Raising an eyebrow, Galilea declared, "Then I shall tell you the first one. The truth is, you are not..."

Her sentence was abruptly interrupted as an officer thrust open the door, entering the room. "Miss Chavez, it's time to depart." Speechless, Sabrina stood there, her thoughts racing.

She gracefully turned toward the officer, gracing him with a beguiling smile. "Is it at all possible to make an exception? Could you grant me amere five additional minutes?"

Regretfully, the officer shook his head, his response firm. "I'm afraid not. It's a direct order."

Sabrina, pausing momentarily, resignedly conceded, “Very well.”

With a reluctant step, she rose from her seat and cast a fleeting glance in Galilea's direction. "I'll return on another occasion."

The prosecution was in some days.

"Wait..."

As Galilea prepared to speak, the officer interjected, "Oh, Miss

Chavez, there's someone waiting for you outside."

“Someone is waiting for me?" Sabrina inquired as she proceeded toward the exit.
