Unlike Walter Ford, a glint of light appeared in Crystal Bishop's eyes. Clinging to a last shred of hope, she said:
"Walter Vance and I are boyfriend and girlfriend. We're deeply in love, so I hope you can let us be together, Ms. Shaw. I know you were born into wealth and want for nothing, but I'm different. My family has passed away, and now Walter Vance is all I have. Please, I'm begging you, let us be together! I can't live without him…"
Ignoring Walter Ford's attempt to stop her, she dropped to her knees and pleaded incessantly, "Please, Ms. Shaw! I'll be grateful to you for the rest of my life!"
Now that the truth was out, Jenna Shaw didn't feel the vindication she'd expected. Instead, she fought to hold back the tears welling in her eyes.
Walter Ford closed his eyes and sighed.
Jenna Shaw looked at Walter Ford. "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"No. Jenna, you're bound to get hurt when you insist on digging into things like this."
